Department 50

Department 50 was an investigation conducted by the Chilean government between 1941 and 1947 with the help of the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation. The officials investigated local Nazi activity, later expanded to other parts of Latin America (where a number of Nazis escaped), including Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Numerous photographs and other documents were declassified in 2017 and subsequently suggested by History's investigative documentary series Hunting Hitler to align with the fringe theory that the dictator escaped Berlin.
