The US military has experimented with LSD, psychic phenomena and for a period of time "Believed" in UFOs.
The "vaccines cause autism" is another political issue where pseudo science is being used to argue for government dictating medical choices to families. The "Debunkings" I've seen have been political nonsense.
I don't take a position either way on whether vaccines can cause autism. Just that the constant propaganda on this issue is a form of a political witch hunt that has nothing to do with science.

My understanding is that there was one paper (now retracted) claiming a possible link, followed by the author telling the press there was a link, followed by (1) many papers disproving any link and (2) lots of "OMG PANIC" news stories and celebrities telling people to do stupid shit.
