(UFOHIST2.TXT PART2 Conclusion)


Early 1960's...Frank Scully dies. (Author of "Behind the Flying
Saucers".)

Aug. 13, 1960..Red Bluff, CA: CHP Officers Charles A. Carson and
Stanley Scott were on patrol when they sighted what they thought was an
airliner about to crash. When the UFO had descended to about 100 or 200
feet altitude it suddenly reversed direction and climbed to 500 ft.
Description: round or oblong surrounded by a glow (color not mentioned)
and having definite red lights at each end. They continued to watch the
UFO as it performed "unbelievable" aerial feats. The local RADAR
operator confirmed the UFO at this time but denied it the next day.
Other Tehema County Sheriffs' officers also saw this UFO and another
similar one that same night. (NICAP, 1964)

May, 1961......In the May issue of "Fate" magazine, Master Sgt. O.D.
Hill admits that we are still loosing Air Force planes to UFOs. The
first case was an F-86 jet fighter that was sent aloft to investigate
an UFO that had been plotted on the Radar scope of an Air Base (name
and dates classified). The Radar Operator spied the UFO heading
straight for the craft. The operator radioed for the F-86 to climb at
once, but it was too late. The two blips merged as one and the UFO was
tracked moving away. Classified as "mysterious" not a single shred of
the F-86 was ever found. (ref. Kinross AFB where an F-89 with crew of
two merged with an UFO and disappeared.-Donald Keyhoe)

Second Case: A radar operator was tracking a transport plane carrying
26 persons aboard when, suddenly, another blip appeared on the screen
closing at 2500 mph on the transport. Before the operator could warn
the transport the two blips emerged as one. The remaining blip sped
straight up at tremendous speed. A surface search in the vicinity
revealed no oil slicks on the water, although a Generals' briefcase was
found floating around. (see 4/1/59;9/29/59)

1961-1963......Near Nellis AFB, NE: "Mat", a radio maintenance engineer
at Nevada's AEC between 1961-1963, provided evidence to the MUFON
Journal that Project REDLIGHT was secretly being conducted at nearby
"Area 51", a 50-mile-square quadrant of land east of Nellis AFB. This
Project "involved flight-testing of an UFO which had been shipped there
from Edwards AFB." The craft flew silently, was about 20 to 30 ft. in
diam., and had no wings or tail.

Apr. ,1962.....Flight Commander P.J. (initials), attached to TAC
Fighter Wing was deployed at Wright-Patterson AFB and mistakenly broke
into an air hanger where he thought the gym was located. Upon entering
the hanger he was approached by an air police sentry with a sub-machine
gun. Behind the sentry was a saucer approx. 12-15 ft. diam. suspended
off the ground by two engine test stands. There were no markings or
insignia on the saucer. It had no rivet markings. The saucer was roped-
off and 8 guards stood at parade rest around it. P.J. and his friend
were encouraged to leave the hanger. P.J. returned to MyrtleBeach AFB,
S.C.

July 17, 1963..A passenger of a Convair-880 related to UFO
investigator, James Moseley, that the 4 engined jet airliner she had
been flying in was pursued by an UFO. The jet , traveling at 600 mph,
made a sharp turn to avoid the UFO, now rapidly closing in on the
plane. Just as they were about to collide, the UFO swerved away at
fantastic speed and disappeared in the night sky. When the (unnamed)
woman confronted the pilot about the incident, he said, "I wouldn't
dare risk telling the airline of the incident. If I could tell you of
some of the experiences my buddies have had, you'd never fly again!"

Apr. 15, 1964..USAF Intelligence officer meets with 2 Aliens at
prearranged location in the desert of New Mexico. Project SIGMA
operates at AFB, New Mexico. (see 1959)

Oct., 1964.....Air Force and Army radar stations tracked an UFO as it
hovered over and flew along the demilitarized zone between North and
South Korea. The UFO was visible for over an hour.

Dec. 19, 1964..MEMO to Chief, Contact Division: NICAP case #(censured):
Subject: UFOs over Patuxent Navel Air Station between 1500 and 1530
hours. Two UFOs approached Air Base at 3800 mph. Another UFO approached
at 6000 mph. Radar operator, Chief Pinkerton had visual on Radar. US
Coast Guard had "visual" on the UFOs. OFFICIAL statement to press: the
(single) blip was caused by faulty radar equipment! (see 1/25/65)

Jan. 25, 1965..MEMO to Chief, Contact Division: NICAP Case #(censured).
(see 12/19/64)

1965...........While visiting the Air Force Museum in Fairborn, Ohio,
R.M. (initials), a government employee of 23 yrs., went through a
double- door marked "Off Limits" and suddenly came face to face with an
Alien in a self contained space suite. Description: About 4.5 ft. tall
with a translucent dome over its' large head; wasn't human; large eyes
under a heavy brow; no noticeable nose; a slit for a mouth; bluish
skin. When the creature walked it didn't bend its' knees. R.M. later
found out from a retired Air Force Colonel from Wight-Patterson AFB,
that 2 live Aliens were held in captivity in an artificial environment.
The Colonel also said that a 2-man sized craft crashed near Whitewater
Lake, Indiana, as a result of an electrical disturbance in the
atmosphere. [The Alien would have to lock his knees in a high-gravity
environment to avoid falling down.]

Feb. 11, 1965..Personal Interview report by Capt. D.M. (initials):
Aerial encounter of three UFOs with radar and visual sightings. Air
Force flight F-169 enroute from Anchorage, AL, to Japan. Capt. R.W.
(initials) and Capt. W. (initial) observed 3 UFOs on radar 5 miles off
the wing. The UFOs paced the Flying Tiger freighter aircraft for 30
minutes then climbed away at a steep angle at about 1200 knots ground
speed. Estimated size (thumb and finger method) approx. 200 to 1000 ft.
diam., glowing red and oval shaped. The pilot remarked, "we often see
UFOs on the Alaskan run!"

May 28, 1965...Police statement (interview); Bougainville Reef,
Australia: An Ansett-A.N.A. DC-6B airliner (VH-INH) en route to Port
Moresby, New Guinea, was buzzed by a UFO at about 3:25 a.m. The pilot
radioed the Townsville Ground Control Tower and talked to Mr. O.
(initial). Description: slightly spherical and oblate, flattened on top
and bottom; appeared to have exhaust gasses coming from it. Photos of
the UFO were taken by the pilot but were later confiscated at Canberra
as was the taped conversation to Mr. O., the Tower operator. Mr. O. was
threatened with dismissal if he talked about the incident.

July 3, 1965...Newspaper reports, ANTARCTICA: Argentine, British and
Chilean military and scientific personnel observed an UFO moving at a
frightening speed doing incredible maneuvers. It was something solid,
glowing blue-green and causing E/M interference with our equipment.
Lenticular shaped "flying saucer". Tracked by theodolite, binoculars
and magnetograph tapes. Also, 10 color photographs were taken of the
UFO.

Sept. 3, 1965..Project Blue Book File #(?): Damon/Angleton, TX. Deputy
Sheriffs Billy E. McCoy and Robert W. Goode were investigating an UFO
in the back-woods roads when the purplish UFO shot instantly towards
them to within 150 feet and hovered at 100 feet off the ground. The
bright glow illuminated the interior of the car and the surrounding
fields (11:30 p.m.). "Every blade of grass stood out clearly" in the
field. Officer Goode, who was driving with his arm out the window, felt
heat on his arm and later reported that a cut that was on his arm
healed more rapidly than normal [U/V effects].

Sept.16,1965...NICAP Report #(?): Pretoria, S. Africa: Constables John
Lockem and Koos de Klerk while on patrol (after midnight) suddenly had
a domed, disc shaped object come into their van headlights. It was
sitting on the road. The UFO was copper colored and about 30 ft. in
diam. Immediately the UFO lifted off, emitting tongues of flame from
two tubes or channels on the underside. The flames deflected about
three feet off the macadam road surface and were still visible after
loosing sight of the craft. Road damage: part of the road was caved-in,
and in a 6 foot area the gravel was separated from the tar. Samples of
the road surface were taken for analysis, which report was never
released. Lt. Col. J.B. Brits, District Commandant of Pretoria North
said the incident was "highly SECRET ... and inquiry is being conducted
in TOP circles."

Nov., 1965.....Fort Riley, KA: "AK" (Aaron Kaback) was on guard duty at
2 a.m. when the duty officer drove up and ordered him to hop into the
jeep. He and 3 other officers were driven out to a remote area where a
large oval objectwas resting. An army chopper was hovering above the
object and shining a bright light on it. The object was approx. 35-48
ft. in diam., had a fin on the end and an exhaust port or some kind of
hole below the fin. It had rows of squares around the rim and remained
completely dead for the 2 1/2 hours they guarded it. (Kaback seems to
be confused as to the actual date this incident occurred. see 12/10/64)

Mar. 20, 1966..Dexter, MI.: Frank Mannor, age 47, and Ronald Mannor,
age 19, went out at night through swampy, hummocky terrain to
investigate flashing lights in the swamp. They saw a domed, elliptical
object with a quilted surface hovering about 8 ft. off the ground in a
patch of apparent mist. The object glowed "blood red" and the body
lights disappeared. They lost sight of the UFO and didn't see it again.
(see 3/21/66;4/1/66)

Mar. 20, 1966..La Porte, IN: Patrolman Michael Spevak was on duty when
2 youths pulled over and pointed out an UFO that they said had been
following them from Michigan City to La Porte. According to the young
men, the object frequently burst into such a bright glare that it
blinded them, forcing them off the highway. It had been following them
at an altitude of about 60 ft. Both the young men and the patrolman
noticed a cross-shaped appendage protruding from the lower portion of
the UFO.

Mar. 21, 1966..Law enforcement officer F.B. (initials) at Dexter,
Michigan, and officer "C" (initial) on patrol sighted a landed saucer
in a swamp. Description: Large craft, like a pot; no windows; had a
dull glow and steam was coming up from the water. Sounded like a
turbine, a low whine or hum. He notified Selfridge AFB which
immediately sent out MP's, well armed. All law officers were ordered
back and their film was confiscated. Later his report and other reports
disappeared from police headquarters. Then, everyone in the force,
including he and "C", were transferred to other parts of the county.
The UFO wasn't disabled. F.B. saw it take-off and climb straight up.
(see 3/1/67)

Apr. 1, 1966...From LIFE magazine: In a hastily called press
conference, the USAF spokesman J. Allen Hynek suggested that the
Dextor, MI, UFO and others seen in the swamps near Hillsdale may have
been marsh (or swamp) gas that had spontaneously ignited. (see

Apr. 17,1966...Ravenna, OH, to Conway, Penn.: Deputy Sheriffs Dale
Spaur and Wilbur Neff of Portage County were on patrol when an UFO
stopped above them, illuminating them and the surroundings (it was just
about dawn). As the UFO moved away from them at about 300-500 ft. above
the road, it would alternately start and stop ahead of them playing cat
and mouse. At E. Palestine, OH, officer Wayne Huston joined in the
pursuit. At speeds of 100 mph in unfamiliar territory, they were soon
low on gas and had to give up the game with the UFO. Through local
police dispatch the officers alerted the Air Force, who sent out
fighter planes to investigate the UFO. As the officers saw the AF
planes approaching the UFO shot straight up and out of sight. (see
6/24/66)

Summer, 1966...Results of an Iowa Poll, Iowa: 45% Iowans queried
believe UFOs to be REAL objects. Of the 45%, 21% were of the opinion
that the UFOs were of extraterrestrial origin.

June, 1966.....Nha Trang, Vietnam: At this active Army Base at about
9:45 p.m., what was thought to be a flare lit up the north sky. The
bright UFO approached the base alternately moving at low to high
speeds. Upon descending toward the soldiers it hovered at an altitude
of 300-500 ft. All of a sudden the 6 generators failed along with the
engines of the idling Skyraiders, (TESLA energy discharge effects)
bulldozers and trucks. The entire valley and surrounding mountains were
illuminated by the hovering UFO for about 4 min. after which it went
straight up and disappeared in about 3 sec. After the incident a plane
load of officials from Washington arrived to investigate. (see 3/4/69)

June 24, 1966..Richmond, VA: Officer William L. Stevens, Jr., observed
a dirigible-shaped UFO at 3:30 in the morning near the fairgrounds. It
was about100 ft. long and 30 ft. thick with greenish-yellow lights on
its perimeter. Stevens attempted to chase the UFO but it maintained an
even distance from him even though he sped up and slowed down. "The
object seemed to be playing CAT & MOUSE with me," he later said. After
10-15 min. the UFO accelerated and sped away. (see 4/17/66)

Mar. 1, 1967...Lt. Gen. Hewitt T. Wheless, USAF, sends notice to all
branches of the military warning of persons imitating military officers

Mar. 4, 1969...Near Atlanta, Missouri: The City Marshall and Mail
Carrier in Elmer, Missouri, William R. Overstreet observed an UFO at
early dawn over the road ahead of him. It was about 100 ft. in diam.
apparently rotating clockwise and emitting a strong white beam of light
down to the road which seemed to magnify the size of the road it was
shining on. He felt intense heat from the direction of the UFO and his
CB radio was dead. As he neared the light beam from the UFO his truck
motor and radio quit. As the beammoved away from his truck he was able
to start the engine again.(TESLA energy discharge effects) He followed
the UFO for about 4 mi. staying away from the beam. The UFO followed
the contour of the land it was flying over. After 7-8 min. the UFO
veered away and went out of sight. "I had never believed in them too
much until I saw this," he said. "Now I know that there is something to
these UFOs!" (see 8/13/75,6/66)

Oct. 2, 1972...A letter from the Dept. of National Defence, Canada,
Brig. Gen. L.A. Bourgeois states: All UFOs reported to CFHQ are
investigated by the Director of Operations. It isn't a practice to
allow the public to study these files. Since the beginning of 1968
these UFO reports have been passed along to the NRC. Evidence suggests
that UFOs present no threat to the Technology world. They exhibit a
unique scientifically advanced technology. (see 9/19/26)

Sept. ,1973....At Great Lakes Naval Base, Instructor R.K., Gunnery
School Grade E-4, while delivering a sealed envelope to the Commandant
in the quonset hut, was surprised to see a saucer 30 ft. diam. and 10
ft. ht. resting on a wooden platform. Description: Silvery blue and
shimmering, it tapered like a teardrop with a flange running along its
topside from one end to the other and there were no windows. R.K.
believed this saucer to be the one shot down on its third pass over a
Navy vessel by a missile. The saucer crashed in 350 ft. water between
Hawaii and the mainland. It was retrieved by a Glomar Explorer, shipped
to Hawaii then stateside to Chicago.

Oct. 18, 1973..Capt. Lawrence Coyne, while flying an Army helicopter
with three other crewmen were 45 minutes out over Mansfield when Staff
Sgt. Robert Yanacsek spotted a red glowing UFO headed toward their
helicopter at an estimated 600 mph. It stopped abruptly 500 ft. above
them. It had a big, gray, metallic looking hull about 60 ft. long,
shaped like an airfoil or streamlined cigar with a red light in front
and a green light in the rear, the lead edge glowed red a short
distance from the nose. There was a center dome. The 'copter radio

twelve years ago I tried to get access to the building at Wright-
Patterson (HANGER-18) where UFO artifacts were stored and I was
understandably denied access. It is still classified above TOP SECRET.
I've heard they plan to release some of the information in the near
future and hope not to have to wait too much longer.

Aug. 13, 1975..Near Haderslev, Denmark: Police Officer Evald Hansen
Maarup was driving home at 10:50 p.m. when all of a sudden his car was
engulfed by a bright blue light while at the same time his car lost all
power. The temperature in his car rose to that of a warm summer day and
his radio was dead so he couldn't call for help. The bright beam from
the UFO was conical in shape with a bottom diam. of 4-5 meters and a
top diam. at the UFO of 10 meters. Two dome-like protrusions were
visible on the underside of the UFO that was hovering at about 20
meters altitude. He activated a special camera on the patrol car which
automatically took 3 pictures of the UFO. As the UFO sped away he
regained power to his car. The developed film which was later turned
over to the Danish AF showed the light source of the UFO on it. No
report or analysis has been available from the AF to date. (see 3/4/69)

Aug. 13, 1975..Alamogordo, NM: Staff Sgt. Charles L. Moody, USAF, drove
out to the outskirts of town late one night to watch for meteors. As a
disc-shaped UFO descended toward him, he tried to start his car to get
away but it wouldn't start. He heard a high pitched whining sound from
the UFO and saw shadowy figures in it and felt numbness, after which
the UFO departed. After driving home he found he couldn't account for
1.5 hours. The next day his back was enflame and he discovered a small
puncture wound over his spine and a few days later he developed a body
rash. As months passed he regained memory of the missing 1.5 hours. He
remembered that he had been in the UFO and in telepathic communication
with small 4'8" humanoids. They had whitish gray skin, large heads,
large eyes, small slit-like mouths and mask-like features. He had been
in a drug-like state on a table and they had poked a rod like device
into his back. After this they escorted him about the ship and later
dropped him off at his car. (see 3/4/69)

Oct. 28, 1975..CONFIDENTIAL CINC/NORAD Report: UFOs, suspicious objects
seen by ground personnel. Sounded like jet aircraft. Intermittent radar
contact made with object. Jets scrambled to intercept but objects
lights went out interceptors passed and then came on again. Then the
object increased in speed and raised to a high altitude and could not
be discerned from the stars. Description: Through binoculars, looked
like 100 ft. sphere and appeared to have craters around the outside. To
date, AF and SAC helicopters have failed to provide a positive I.D. of
the UFO. (see 11/11/75,7/52)

Oct. 29, 1975..NMCC Joint Staff Memo: Subject: AFB penetration. At
290200 EST, AFOC informed NMCC that an unidentified helicopter (UFO),
possibly two, had been sighted flying low over Loring AFB, Maine, in
proximity to a weapons storage area. Army Nat. Guard helos called in to
assist in locating UFO. NORAD informed of the incident by SAC. Received
authority to proceed into Canadian airspace, if necessary, to locate
UFO. A similar incident was reported the evening before.

Nov. 11, 1975..CONFIDENTIAL CINC/NORAD Report. (see 10/28/75)

Jan. 21, 1976..MEMO from NMCC by Rear Adm. J. B. Morin stating: Two
UFOs reported near the flight line at Cannon AFB, N.M. Security Police
report the UFOs to be 25 yards (75 ft.) in diameter, gold/silver in
color with blue light on top, hole in the middle and red light on the
bottom.

Apr. 9, 1976...CONFIDENTIAL CIA Message: Source (name Censored) seeks
guidance from CIA UFO experts as to material in his report that should
remain classified.

July 30, 1976..NMCC Joint Staff Memo: Subject: Reports of UFOs. At
approx. 0345, EDT, the ANMCC received several reports of UFOs near Fort
Ritchie. At 0130, civilians reported an UFO to the NAB. At 0255, two
separate patrols sighted three UFOs; oblong with a reddish tint. At
0300, the Desk Sgt. (name with held) sighted an UFO over the ammo
storage area at 100-200 yds. altitude. At 0345, an Army Police Sgt.
sighted an UFO in the vicinity of sight R. ANMCC was requested to have
each individual write a statement on the sightings. One person said the
UFO was the size of a 2.5 ton truck.

Sep. 19, 1976..Tehran, Iran: Civilians reported an UFO to the AFB. The
Iranian AF scrambled an American F-4 for intercept. As the F-4 was
vectored towards the brilliant UFO, all communications and
instrumentation were suddenly lost. As the pilot broke off pursuit, all
aircraft functions returned to normal. A second F-4 that was scrambled
began closing in on the UFO at greater than Mach 1 and was closing on
the UFO at 150 nautical mph., but the UFO accelerated and stayed ahead
of the F-4 (confirmed by Radar). Multi-colored flashing lights were
visible on the UFO. The moment the F-4 pilot tried to lock an AIM-9
missile at the UFO he lost all weapons panel and communication control.
The UFO launched two smaller UFOs, one of which began to follow the F-
4. After evasive action by the F-4, the smaller UFO returned and united
with the larger UFO. The other smaller UFO seemed to have landed on the
ground so the pilot flew down to investigate it. The landed UFO
appeared to be 12 feet in diameter? As the pilot descended the light
from the landed UFO went out and he lost sight of it. The DIA termed
this sighting as "an outstanding report. This case is a classic which
meets all the criteria necessary for a study of a UFO phenomenon." And,
"an inordinate amount of manuverablilty was displayed by the UFOs."
(see 10/2/72,9/20/76)

Sep. 20, 1976..DIA MESSAGE: UFO sighted over Tehran, Iran. "Initiate"
IPSP PT-1440. The Iranian Air Force scrambled an F-4 to intercept the
UFO. Due to its brilliance the UFO was visible 70 miles away. When the
F-4 approached within 25 mi. of UFO the F-4 lost ALL instrumentation
and communications (UHF and intercom). As the first F-4 banked away
from the UFO he regained instr. and comm. A second F-4 was dispatched,
2 man, with radar.The radar return was of a craft the size of a 707
Tanker. As the F-4 closed within 25 NMi. of UFO, the UFO launched a
bright white object about one third the apparent size of the moon. The
pilot attempted to fire an AIM-9 missile at the second UFO but at that
moment he lost all instruments and communication.As he banked away from
the primary object the secondary object went to the inside of his turn
then returned and rejoined with the primary object. Afterwards the F-4
regained control of instr. and communications. (see 9/19/76)

sightings through COVERT COVER. One agency that deceives the public
whict such covert cover is the UFO reporting center at U.S. Coast and
Geodetic Survey, Rockville, MD. 20852. [The results of PROJECT AQUARIUS
is still classified TOP SECRET with access limited to "MJ-12".] The
Paul Bennewitz case still being monitored by NASA. Still receiving
assistance from Fugate(?) Miller. (see 2/1/78)

Dec. 27, 1980..USAF UFO REPORT signed by Lt. Col. Charles I. Halt,
Deputy Base Commander, RAF Woodbridge stating: Two USAF security police
patrolmen saw a UFO either hovering or on legs outside the back gate,
Woodbridge. Being early morning, it illuminated the entire forest with
a white light. Description: Metallic in appearance and triangular in
shape, pulsing red light on top and banks of blue lights underneath.

UFOs and later sees 3 other UFOs. (see 12/27/80)

Dec. 29, 1980..A low flying UFO was escorted by a large number of
helicopters (23) including some Chinooks and possibly Hueys, near
Dayton, Texas. It was probably escorted to the TOP SECRET underground
installation within Fort Hood, Texas. The SECRET air force base is NOT
listed in the Air Force Officer's Guide or the Air Force Almanac [it is
an Army AFB]. The name of the Secret base is Gray AAF, Texas.

(12/29/80, cont'd) The special group piloting the helicopters Escort
for UFO are known as the "BLUEBOYS". The Texas Department of Public
Safety works closely with Gray AAF on UFO cases. (see 6/6/88)

Jan. 13, 1981..(BENTWATERS AFB) Air Force MEMO from Lt. Col. Charles I.
Halt, Deputy Base Commander. (see 12/27/80,12/29/80)

Oct. 19, 1981..Barry Goldwater, Senator, Arizona, in a letter to Lee
Graham, f Aeroject Electric Systems, Azusa, Calif., states that he has

Nov. 3, 1981...Civil Action, Case No. 80-1562, goes against the
plaintiff and for the defendant, the NSA. The NSA retains the right to
withhold 156 TOP SECRET records containing communications intelligence
(COMINT) reports which were produced between 1958 and 1979. Only
military personnel with a Top Secret Clearance were allowed to view the
documents for the court hearing. NOT even the Judge was allowed to see
them, even though he ruled against the plaintiff (CAUS). (see 6/24/83)

Nov. 27, 1982..Palatine, IL.: Police Commander Michael McDonald was on
patrol at 5:00 a.m. when the area around his car was lighted, as if by
a phosphorousflare. Looking up he saw a large white UFO with tinges of
red at an altitude of 900-1000 ft. Two other officers, alerted by
radio, also observed the UFO. The other two cars gave pursuit to the
UFO at speeds of between 60-65 mph but the UFO outdistanced them. A few
minutes later another UFO was noted by the commander and then the other
two officers. It was a diffuse "domed disc" which was seen to emit a
beam of light towards the ground. The UFO then disappeared behind the
tree line of a forest preserve. The police report includes a tape
recording of the radio communications during the sighting.

Jun. 24, 1983..Larry W. Bryant, Director of CAUS, filed a Civil Action,
Case No. 83-1932 (Judge Oliver Gasch) petitioning for a Writ of Habeas
Corpus EXTRATERRESTRIAL, in the United States District Court for the
Dist. of Columbia, seeking to obtain the release from custody of "one
or more occupants of apparent extraterrestrial origin." Mr. Bryant
contends that the Government action in maintaining secret custody,
detention, and prosecution of such extraterrestrials is unlawful and a
violation of their basic rights and is seeking to restore their civil
rights. (see 11/3/81)

Nov. 29,1983...Dr. Robert I Sarbacher, President and Chairman of the
Board, Washington Institute of Technology, in a letter to William
Steinman states persons definitely involved in operations of recovered
saucers were John von Neuman and Dr. Vannever Bush. Also, Dr. Sarbacher
thought that Robert Oppenheimer was also involved. Dr. Sarbacher had
been invited by President Eisenhower to attend several discussions
associated with the reported recoveries, but was unable to attend them.
He did receive Special Reports on the recoveries at the Pentagon but
was instructed NOT to remove them from his office.

1984...........From the Air Traffic Controllers Manual: Controllers
MUST report UFOs immediately to AIS (Military), LATCC. A completed
report MUST be sent to MOD (AFOR). A list of phone numbers and
locations is shown in the directory at Appendix H.

May 16, 1984...Dept. of the Army letter to W. S. Steinman stating that
the IPU was disestablished in the late 1950s and all records were
transferred to the Air Force. Therefore the Army isn't aware of what
their function was even though it was a Secret unit of the Army. [FOIA
requests to USAF] (see 3/12/87)

Mar. 19, 1985..(LONDON, ENGLAND) In a letter from Ministry of Defence,
Lord Trefgarne states, "There is no organization in the MOD appointed
solely for the purpose of studying UFOs, and no staff are employed on
the subject full time... the staff in the Department... examine the
reports as part of heir normal duties... and we cannot inform observers
of the probable identity of the objects seen."

June 28, 1985..USAF ACCESS RESTRICTED NOTICE: Report TR-DE-3A, Oct. 15,
1955, from Air Tech. Intel. Ctr., file no. TS5-2862, has been WITHDRAWN
from the National Archives and is classified a TOP SECRET UFO REPORT.

Aug. 27, 1985..Darlian, CHINA, the "China Daily" reports: 20,000 people
are involved in UFO research. The first recognized photo of a UFO in
China was taken in 1945. In 1981 CSUR UFO research organization was
established. More than 600 UFOs have been reported within the past 5
years in China. Studies will be done on UFOs and Human body science
relationships.

May 11, 1986...Near Sadona, AR: Minister Robert H. Henderson and his
wife, Nann, of Phoenix, AR, were flying at an altitude of 8500 ft. at 4
p.m. when a very bright UFO was seen approaching head-on to them. As he
prepared to take evasive action the UFO passed quickly to the left and
below of his plane. The UFO was seen to be wingless and resembling a
"modified half-sphere, with the flat side down." The closure rate was
estimated at about 1200 mph.

May 19, 1986...Near Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: Between 9:00
to 12 midnight the Brazilian Air Defense and the Civil Air System were
swamped with Radar and pilot UFO sightings. As Ospires Silva, President
of Petrobras Oil Company were preparing to land, the control tower
informed him of UFO targets on their radar. He and his companion, Alcir
Pereira da Silva, saw bright red-orange UFOs, not at all like stars or
planes. They attempted to pursue the UFOs for 30 min. but gave up as
the UFOs seemed to be jumping from place to place. At this time three
F-5E fighter jets were scrambled from Santa Cruz AFB. Capt. Marcio
Jordao was able to approach within 12 miles of an UFO, visible to him
as a bright light changing from white to green. Lt. Kleber Caldas
Marinho chased another UFO which was a very intense light, changing
from white to green then red again. Both pilots broke off chase as they
were running low on fuel. Ground Radar picked up 10-13 more UFOs that
surrounded another plane with Capt. Armindo Souza Viriato de Marinho,
K.C. Freitas piloting it. Capt. Freitas tracked the UFOs on his radar,
but only de Freitas, A.S.V. saw them visually once as they climbed
vertically past him. Brig. Gen. Octavio Moreira Lima made these events
public at a press conference and allowed the pilots and radar operators
to be questioned by the media. (see 7/52)

Feb. 15, 1987..The San Jose Mercury states that the Pentagon has a
"Black Budget" which has become a "Black Hole" for SECRET Projects
spending! It is far bigger than the federal budget for education or
transportation or agriculture or the environment. These Projects are
classified above Top Secret, therefore very few federal investigators
have the security clearances necessary to audit black programs.

Mar. 12, 1987..U.S. Army Intelligenc letter: The IPU (Interplanetary
Phenomenon Unit) of the Scientific and Technical Branch, Counter
intelligence Directorate, Department of the Army was disestablished
during the 1950's and never reactivated. All of its records were turned
over to the USAF (which can't seem to locate them). This letter was
sent to Timothy Good. (see 5/16/84)

Sep. 4, 1987...JMP (Justice for Military Personnel) letter sent to
President Ronald Reagan. This letter, verified by: Astronaut L. Gordon
Cooper, Maj. Donald E. Keyhoe (USMC, Ret.), MUFON (Sequin, TX), APRO
(Tucson, AZ) and Just Cause (Coventry, CT) states that:"WE (military
personnel) have been ordered by the CIA to shoot at UFOs, silence
pilots who have seen UFOs, intimidate, harass, jail, confine to
institutions,and destroy military carreers of witnesses to UFO
sightings. We VIOLATED the Freedom of Information Act by hiding
Government documents." (see 7/52,9/24/47)

Nov. 17, 1986..Near Fort Yukon, Alaska: Japan Airlines flight #1628, a
Boeing 747 freighter, was cruising at 35000 ft. altitude and at 5:11
p.m. the pilots noticed bright lights 30 degrees to the left and below
them. The UFOs moved up directly in front of the 747 and, said Capt.
Kenju Terauchi, "most unexpectedly, two spaceships stopped in front of
our face, shooting off lights (like numerous exhaust pipes). The inside
cockpit shined brightly and I felt warm in the face." The UFOs appeared
as two rectangular clusters or arrays of light, one above the other. As
the larger UFOs moved away from the 747 Airlines Flight 1628 there
remained two smaller flat white UFOs. At about 5:30 p.m. Capt. Terauchi
checked the pale white light behind their craft visually. He saw a
gigantic "walnet-shaped" UFO (Saturn-shaped) following them. As an
evasive action the Capt. ordered the 747 to turn away from the giant
UFO that was following them, at which time the UFO "spaceship"
disappeared.

Dec. 21, 1987..CIA letter to Mr. Richard Hall stating the CIA's reasons
for denying certain FOIA requests about himself on the basis of
national defence reasons and must be kept secret. Mr. Hall is an UFO
investigator.

May 5, 1988....For the third time, publicly, President Ronald Reagan
states that the nations of the earth would unite if we were threatened
by an Alien race from a hostile planet.

Jun.6, 1988....Letter received from Paul F. Bennewitz describing
Project Beta: Alien base located in New Mexico consisting of type
"Grey" Aliens. NASA CIR film has aided in locating this base and
revealing US Military involvement with the "Greys". Aliens helped US
Military to build a working saucer, Atomic Powered. Two women and a boy
exposed to radiation burns by this saucer. Government is not picking up
the medical bills. "Grey" base is currently abandoned. Another group
called "Orange" is based on the west slope of Mt. Archeleta near "the
Diamond". Goal of Project Beta: to locate, inventory and propose ways
of destroying Alien bases! (see 12/29/80)
