Pentagon Papers -
government study of U.S. involvement in Southeast Asia. Commissioned by Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara in June, 1967, the 47-volume, top secret study covered the period from World War II to May, 1968. It was written by a team of analysts who had access to classified documents, and was completed in Jan., 1969. The study revealed a considerable degree of miscalculation, bureaucratic arrogance, and deception on the part of U.S. policymakers. In particular, it found that the U.S. government had continually resisted full disclosure of increasing military involvement in Southeast Asiaair strikes over Laos, raids along the coast of North Vietnam, and offensive actions by U.S. marines had taken place long before the American public was informed. On June 13, 1971, the New York Times began publishing a series of articles based on the study. The Justice Dept. obtained a court injunction against further publication on national security grounds, but the Supreme Court ruled (June 30) that constitutional guarantees of a free press overrode other considerations, and allowed further publication. The government indicted (1971) Daniel Ellsberg, a former government employee who made the Pentagon Papers available to the New York Times, and Anthony J. Russo on charges of espionage, theft, and conspiracy. On May 11, 1973, a federal court judge dismissed all charges against them because of improper government conduct .

the pentagon paper
A pentagon is a 2-D shape. There is a 3-D shape with 12 faces, each a regular pentagon. It's called a dodecahedron. To make one out of (stiff) paper, you would cut out a "net", then fold and glue the edges. See related link for an illustration of a net you could print out.
Takes a while of practice if you have like a math book with a pentagon then just copy it through the paper or look at an image until you get it right. for example i couldn't draw a star when i was in 6th grade.
Yes. simply put three separate dots of ink in a random pattern on a piece of paper and then connect them in any sequence you like... eventually you'll have a pentagon. You will NOT have a REGULAR pentagon or a pentagram. Penta means five Gon means angles... Firstmate
There's nothing to find. A pentagon is a flat (2D) figure. It can be drawn on a sheet of paper, and it has no volume.
It was named after a pentagon, it wasn't the 'Pentagon' that named the 'pentagon'.
