00:04:07,270 --> 00:04:05,830 okay 86 00:04:09,350 --> 00:04:07,280 um 87 00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:09,360 i have a 88 00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:11,360 history degree from the university of 89 00:04:16,629 --> 00:04:13,280 maryland 90 00:04:18,069 --> 00:04:16,639 i spent uh 50 years stealing from the 91 00:04:20,949 --> 00:04:18,079 government 92 00:04:22,310 --> 00:04:20,959 uh 25 years in the 93 00:04:27,030 --> 00:04:22,320 army 94 00:04:32,310 --> 00:04:30,310 i've been interested in ufos since uh 95 00:04:35,110 --> 00:04:32,320 junior high 96 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:35,120 so that's back in the uh 97 00:04:42,710 --> 00:04:40,469 and 98 00:04:45,510 --> 00:04:42,720 basically what i've been doing for 50 99 00:04:48,950 --> 00:04:45,520 years is collecting material 100 00:04:53,350 --> 00:04:48,960 and now it's time to put it all together 101 00:04:54,870 --> 00:04:53,360 and get it filed and get it scanned 102 00:04:56,710 --> 00:04:54,880 and that's kind of what you're doing 103 00:04:58,710 --> 00:04:56,720 that's part of what you're doing there 104 00:05:00,070 --> 00:04:58,720 correct that's what that's what we're 105 00:05:04,310 --> 00:05:00,080 doing here 106 00:05:08,629 --> 00:05:06,230 all right dave it's your turn 107 00:05:10,950 --> 00:05:08,639 yeah uh you know david marlar 108 00:05:12,629 --> 00:05:10,960 independent ufo researcher historian 109 00:05:14,790 --> 00:05:12,639 really following the footsteps of these 110 00:05:17,029 --> 00:05:14,800 two gentlemen who really paved the way 111 00:05:19,189 --> 00:05:17,039 along with many other great credible ufo 112 00:05:21,110 --> 00:05:19,199 researchers and historians i got 113 00:05:22,790 --> 00:05:21,120 involved in 1990 114 00:05:24,710 --> 00:05:22,800 in the subject actively had been 115 00:05:27,189 --> 00:05:24,720 interested since i was a young kid but 116 00:05:29,590 --> 00:05:27,199 uh not really till 1990 to get involved 117 00:05:31,430 --> 00:05:29,600 and really uh touching on what we're 118 00:05:33,189 --> 00:05:31,440 doing right now martin 119 00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:33,199 when i first got involved in ufos i 120 00:05:36,790 --> 00:05:34,720 rather naively thought i could go to the 121 00:05:39,909 --> 00:05:36,800 local libraries and look at books on 122 00:05:42,550 --> 00:05:39,919 ufos and much to my disappointment there 123 00:05:44,469 --> 00:05:42,560 were few if any ufo books at the local 124 00:05:45,990 --> 00:05:44,479 libraries and 125 00:05:47,590 --> 00:05:46,000 rather naively 126 00:05:50,070 --> 00:05:47,600 the the thought crossed my mind well 127 00:05:53,110 --> 00:05:50,080 i'll have to just create my own library 128 00:05:55,830 --> 00:05:53,120 little did i realize 31 years later it 129 00:05:57,510 --> 00:05:55,840 would get to this point uh and we're in 130 00:05:59,510 --> 00:05:57,520 the process of still collecting new 131 00:06:01,830 --> 00:05:59,520 material new information but 132 00:06:03,430 --> 00:06:01,840 uh to jan's point you know we're here 133 00:06:04,550 --> 00:06:03,440 really trying to organize the material 134 00:06:06,710 --> 00:06:04,560 scan it 135 00:06:09,270 --> 00:06:06,720 it's nice to have a physical archive 136 00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:09,280 wherever that may be but realistically 137 00:06:12,870 --> 00:06:10,880 we want to make sure this information is 138 00:06:14,790 --> 00:06:12,880 readily available to the worldwide ufo 139 00:06:17,430 --> 00:06:14,800 community and the ultimate goal is not 140 00:06:19,189 --> 00:06:17,440 just to amass the physical materials but 141 00:06:21,749 --> 00:06:19,199 to jan's point get to the point where 142 00:06:23,510 --> 00:06:21,759 we're now digitizing it and eventually 143 00:06:26,150 --> 00:06:23,520 making it free and available to the 144 00:06:27,749 --> 00:06:26,160 worldwide ufo community because 145 00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:27,759 with all due respect to my colleagues 146 00:06:31,270 --> 00:06:29,440 here at the table as well as myself 147 00:06:33,029 --> 00:06:31,280 there's a lot smarter people than us 148 00:06:35,270 --> 00:06:33,039 that might be able to piece together 149 00:06:37,909 --> 00:06:35,280 these disparate elements regarding the 150 00:06:40,230 --> 00:06:37,919 ufo history and the ufo subject and 151 00:06:41,990 --> 00:06:40,240 maybe begin to come closer to gleaning 152 00:06:43,430 --> 00:06:42,000 answers to what this phenomenon's all 153 00:06:44,629 --> 00:06:43,440 about 154 00:06:46,629 --> 00:06:44,639 excellent 155 00:06:48,790 --> 00:06:46,639 all right you're up barry 156 00:06:52,790 --> 00:06:48,800 yeah well i've been investigating and 157 00:06:55,029 --> 00:06:52,800 researching ufos since 1964. 158 00:06:57,270 --> 00:06:55,039 i had a long-term interest in the 159 00:06:59,909 --> 00:06:57,280 history of the subject 160 00:07:01,909 --> 00:06:59,919 i could divide what i've done in it into 161 00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:01,919 two parts the first part might be 162 00:07:07,350 --> 00:07:04,560 considered government historical 163 00:07:09,670 --> 00:07:07,360 where in the late 70s i began to use the 164 00:07:12,550 --> 00:07:09,680 freedom of information act with a few 165 00:07:15,350 --> 00:07:12,560 other researchers to 166 00:07:18,710 --> 00:07:15,360 release government papers on ufos 167 00:07:21,430 --> 00:07:18,720 project blue book had closed in 1969 but 168 00:07:23,589 --> 00:07:21,440 it was clear evidence that 169 00:07:27,029 --> 00:07:23,599 the government was still doing work on 170 00:07:28,390 --> 00:07:27,039 the subject so we use the the foia 171 00:07:32,790 --> 00:07:28,400 to 172 00:07:34,870 --> 00:07:32,800 that at least a dozen different agencies 173 00:07:36,870 --> 00:07:34,880 records on the subject and it was quite 174 00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:36,880 amazing what was coming out 175 00:07:41,670 --> 00:07:39,680 each release led to more releases 176 00:07:44,469 --> 00:07:41,680 because of the information contained in 177 00:07:47,589 --> 00:07:44,479 the in the earlier information so 178 00:07:49,749 --> 00:07:47,599 we amassed somewhere around 4 000 pages 179 00:07:52,150 --> 00:07:49,759 up to 1984 180 00:07:53,029 --> 00:07:52,160 and at that point we decided to do a 181 00:07:54,629 --> 00:07:53,039 book 182 00:07:57,430 --> 00:07:54,639 explaining 183 00:08:00,629 --> 00:07:57,440 what was coming out and i wrote it with 184 00:08:03,189 --> 00:08:00,639 lawrence faucets called clear intent 185 00:08:05,350 --> 00:08:03,199 later called the ufo cover-up 186 00:08:07,749 --> 00:08:05,360 and then uh 187 00:08:10,390 --> 00:08:07,759 the foia became more and more difficult 188 00:08:13,350 --> 00:08:10,400 to use with succeeding administrations 189 00:08:15,589 --> 00:08:13,360 and i decided to shift over into 190 00:08:18,550 --> 00:08:15,599 ufo history and 191 00:08:20,710 --> 00:08:18,560 from that archiving uh to attempt to 192 00:08:22,469 --> 00:08:20,720 preserve the historical record on the 193 00:08:24,869 --> 00:08:22,479 subject which was in 194 00:08:25,830 --> 00:08:24,879 great danger of disappearing 195 00:08:28,869 --> 00:08:25,840 due to 196 00:08:30,869 --> 00:08:28,879 neglect uh 197 00:08:33,750 --> 00:08:30,879 people passing on not leaving their 198 00:08:36,469 --> 00:08:33,760 records to others to take care of and 199 00:08:38,469 --> 00:08:36,479 and we needed a not only archiving but 200 00:08:41,430 --> 00:08:38,479 we needed a network 201 00:08:44,389 --> 00:08:41,440 to make sure that that uh 202 00:08:46,870 --> 00:08:44,399 information circulated freely i i call 203 00:08:48,470 --> 00:08:46,880 this new project uh preservation and 204 00:08:50,949 --> 00:08:48,480 dissemination 205 00:08:53,350 --> 00:08:50,959 we need to scan and preserve the records 206 00:08:55,990 --> 00:08:53,360 first and then once that's done to 207 00:08:57,350 --> 00:08:56,000 disseminate to interested parties so 208 00:09:00,070 --> 00:08:57,360 that they can see what the history of 209 00:09:02,389 --> 00:09:00,080 the subject was all about 210 00:09:04,470 --> 00:09:02,399 right and uh i don't know who wants to 211 00:09:06,389 --> 00:09:04,480 to handle this part of it but 212 00:09:09,350 --> 00:09:06,399 how do you do you feel that the 213 00:09:11,430 --> 00:09:09,360 digitizing of this is going to perhaps 214 00:09:13,590 --> 00:09:11,440 draw the younger 215 00:09:15,829 --> 00:09:13,600 enthusiast 216 00:09:17,670 --> 00:09:15,839 as interest because it's digital 217 00:09:20,230 --> 00:09:17,680 um or dave let me ask you this do you 218 00:09:22,150 --> 00:09:20,240 have any young people has there been any 219 00:09:23,829 --> 00:09:22,160 young researchers interested enough to 220 00:09:25,670 --> 00:09:23,839 actually make a trip there 221 00:09:27,990 --> 00:09:25,680 uh a few 222 00:09:29,509 --> 00:09:28,000 definitely a few but uh to your point 223 00:09:32,230 --> 00:09:29,519 you know martin we're concerned about 224 00:09:34,790 --> 00:09:32,240 the future of ufology in the sense that 225 00:09:36,710 --> 00:09:34,800 uh and and i really would uh take this 226 00:09:38,230 --> 00:09:36,720 this statement and extrapolate it with 227 00:09:40,630 --> 00:09:38,240 history in general 228 00:09:42,710 --> 00:09:40,640 most people aren't interested in history 229 00:09:45,110 --> 00:09:42,720 whether it's ufo history world war ii 230 00:09:47,509 --> 00:09:45,120 history there are those historians those 231 00:09:49,350 --> 00:09:47,519 enthusiasts but admittedly you know 232 00:09:51,670 --> 00:09:49,360 quite often i get asked at conferences 233 00:09:54,150 --> 00:09:51,680 what's the latest greatest in ufo 234 00:09:56,070 --> 00:09:54,160 research and i don't care what's new i 235 00:09:58,310 --> 00:09:56,080 care what's credible and to be quite 236 00:10:00,710 --> 00:09:58,320 honest some of the most credible cases 237 00:10:03,509 --> 00:10:00,720 are 30 40 50 years old in the 238 00:10:06,630 --> 00:10:03,519 government's own files and in the you 239 00:10:08,389 --> 00:10:06,640 know historic uh dr jl and heinekos 240 00:10:11,509 --> 00:10:08,399 files here that we have 241 00:10:13,910 --> 00:10:11,519 and uh so i think it's incumbent upon us 242 00:10:16,310 --> 00:10:13,920 to really sift through all of this 243 00:10:17,990 --> 00:10:16,320 decades worth of material and really 244 00:10:20,389 --> 00:10:18,000 distill it down to what are the most 245 00:10:22,470 --> 00:10:20,399 credible cases uh admittedly and we 246 00:10:24,710 --> 00:10:22,480 always say this but i think we always 247 00:10:27,269 --> 00:10:24,720 have to say this the vast majority of 248 00:10:30,310 --> 00:10:27,279 ufo sightings can be easily dismissed as 249 00:10:32,870 --> 00:10:30,320 meteors and satellites and atmospheric 250 00:10:35,750 --> 00:10:32,880 conditions that that yield unusual you 251 00:10:38,470 --> 00:10:35,760 know uh visual imagery or optics or 252 00:10:40,310 --> 00:10:38,480 airplanes seen at a distance um but 253 00:10:42,630 --> 00:10:40,320 there is that small subset that 254 00:10:44,870 --> 00:10:42,640 definitely deserves to be investigated 255 00:10:47,590 --> 00:10:44,880 and i would say that since the pentagon 256 00:10:49,829 --> 00:10:47,600 report this year that we are starting to 257 00:10:52,630 --> 00:10:49,839 see mainstream scientists and scientific 258 00:10:55,509 --> 00:10:52,640 organizations take an interest dr avi 259 00:10:57,829 --> 00:10:55,519 loeb of harvard as well as nasa has even 260 00:10:59,590 --> 00:10:57,839 started looking into the subject so 261 00:11:03,110 --> 00:10:59,600 we're seeing a sea change within the 262 00:11:07,190 --> 00:11:05,430 so could i hear that yeah absolutely 263 00:11:08,150 --> 00:11:07,200 sure go right ahead 264 00:11:13,190 --> 00:11:08,160 our 265 00:11:15,190 --> 00:11:13,200 uh that's not the only one but that's 266 00:11:18,550 --> 00:11:15,200 the main one 267 00:11:20,870 --> 00:11:18,560 we are not were interested in uh hunting 268 00:11:22,630 --> 00:11:20,880 for aliens or 269 00:11:26,470 --> 00:11:22,640 um 270 00:11:28,389 --> 00:11:26,480 speculating on what's going on 271 00:11:31,350 --> 00:11:28,399 uh you you 272 00:11:34,230 --> 00:11:31,360 can't really study ufos you can study 273 00:11:35,350 --> 00:11:34,240 ufo reports 274 00:11:37,430 --> 00:11:35,360 but 275 00:11:40,230 --> 00:11:37,440 the united states air force and project 276 00:11:41,269 --> 00:11:40,240 blue book were real things that 277 00:11:46,710 --> 00:11:41,279 uh 278 00:11:48,630 --> 00:11:46,720 information 279 00:11:52,389 --> 00:11:48,640 uh 280 00:11:53,910 --> 00:11:52,399 records 281 00:11:54,870 --> 00:11:53,920 and uh 282 00:11:57,350 --> 00:11:54,880 um 283 00:12:00,069 --> 00:11:57,360 interviews that you can study 284 00:12:01,590 --> 00:12:00,079 and of course the ufo witnesses 285 00:12:03,990 --> 00:12:01,600 and other 286 00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:04,000 organizations that were interested in 287 00:12:10,949 --> 00:12:07,360 official organizations in a lot of cases 288 00:12:15,269 --> 00:12:10,959 that were interested in the subject so 289 00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:19,110 have a reservoir of ufo cases 290 00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:22,560 that hopefully somebody in the future 291 00:12:26,230 --> 00:12:24,560 and hopefully somebody with a lot of 292 00:12:27,829 --> 00:12:26,240 scientific 293 00:12:36,629 --> 00:12:27,839 uh 294 00:12:37,430 --> 00:12:36,639 is is far more competent than we are in 295 00:12:39,509 --> 00:12:37,440 play 296 00:12:41,670 --> 00:12:39,519 pacing things together 297 00:12:43,509 --> 00:12:41,680 they will have a record that they can 298 00:12:45,990 --> 00:12:43,519 call on 299 00:12:48,629 --> 00:12:46,000 right right um 300 00:12:50,069 --> 00:12:48,639 i'm gonna throw this out to you just 301 00:12:52,470 --> 00:12:50,079 because it's a little frustrating and i 302 00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:52,480 don't know who would like to handle this 303 00:12:58,550 --> 00:12:56,160 but um one of the things in the report 304 00:13:00,470 --> 00:12:58,560 i believe um i did read through it it 305 00:13:02,550 --> 00:13:00,480 was some when it first came out 306 00:13:04,949 --> 00:13:02,560 but it seemed like they were not going 307 00:13:07,350 --> 00:13:04,959 to investigate earlier cases because 308 00:13:10,310 --> 00:13:07,360 they say they didn't have the equipment 309 00:13:13,829 --> 00:13:10,320 and technology to to really um 310 00:13:16,629 --> 00:13:13,839 gain good data from that and my 311 00:13:17,430 --> 00:13:16,639 my argument with that whole thing is 312 00:13:21,509 --> 00:13:17,440 one 313 00:13:22,470 --> 00:13:21,519 amazing cases that are 30 and 40 years 314 00:13:24,389 --> 00:13:22,480 old 315 00:13:26,389 --> 00:13:24,399 and two 316 00:13:28,150 --> 00:13:26,399 they often say well 317 00:13:30,069 --> 00:13:28,160 these things that peop the pilots are 318 00:13:32,790 --> 00:13:30,079 seeing could be russian they could be 319 00:13:35,430 --> 00:13:32,800 chinese and they throw out all the old 320 00:13:38,069 --> 00:13:35,440 cases where things were doing 25 000 321 00:13:40,870 --> 00:13:38,079 miles an hour and stopping on a dime so 322 00:13:44,150 --> 00:13:40,880 i don't know if anyone wants to uh take 323 00:13:46,870 --> 00:13:44,160 you know just kind of uh elaborate on on 324 00:13:49,509 --> 00:13:46,880 what's frustrating 325 00:13:51,750 --> 00:13:49,519 i would just add to that uh that i've 326 00:13:54,550 --> 00:13:51,760 always stated in my lectures do not look 327 00:13:56,949 --> 00:13:54,560 at one ufo case in a vacuum we have 328 00:13:58,310 --> 00:13:56,959 decades worth of worldwide reports and i 329 00:14:00,389 --> 00:13:58,320 believe one of the strongest most 330 00:14:03,269 --> 00:14:00,399 compelling things we can do 331 00:14:05,030 --> 00:14:03,279 uh in absence of having hard physical 332 00:14:07,509 --> 00:14:05,040 evidence is looking for patterns in the 333 00:14:09,990 --> 00:14:07,519 data i believe patterns in the data are 334 00:14:11,670 --> 00:14:10,000 suggestive of a real phenomenon whatever 335 00:14:13,829 --> 00:14:11,680 that is uh you know it's still the 336 00:14:14,949 --> 00:14:13,839 elusive question what what are we 337 00:14:17,269 --> 00:14:14,959 dealing with 338 00:14:19,110 --> 00:14:17,279 but to your point uh there's what's in 339 00:14:21,590 --> 00:14:19,120 the pentagon report and what's not 340 00:14:22,790 --> 00:14:21,600 what's not in the report is any modicum 341 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:22,800 of history 342 00:14:27,189 --> 00:14:24,720 if you were to read that report and you 343 00:14:30,710 --> 00:14:27,199 never heard of ufos before you would 344 00:14:32,550 --> 00:14:30,720 think that this phenomenon began in 2004 345 00:14:34,629 --> 00:14:32,560 based on the time frame of cases 346 00:14:36,389 --> 00:14:34,639 military cases that they were looking at 347 00:14:37,910 --> 00:14:36,399 and of course your audience know that's 348 00:14:40,870 --> 00:14:37,920 not the case 349 00:14:43,590 --> 00:14:40,880 there is a wealth of information as 350 00:14:45,269 --> 00:14:43,600 barry has shown with his research 351 00:14:46,710 --> 00:14:45,279 looking at the government's own records 352 00:14:48,949 --> 00:14:46,720 you don't have to look at tabloids you 353 00:14:51,030 --> 00:14:48,959 don't have to trust ufo investigators 354 00:14:52,710 --> 00:14:51,040 look at the declassified documents that 355 00:14:55,430 --> 00:14:52,720 exist through barry greenwood's efforts 356 00:14:57,350 --> 00:14:55,440 and later john greenwald's efforts in 357 00:14:59,430 --> 00:14:57,360 getting these documents released and 358 00:15:01,430 --> 00:14:59,440 made available to the general public 359 00:15:03,590 --> 00:15:01,440 they're highly compelling cases in these 360 00:15:06,230 --> 00:15:03,600 in these matters and then when we start 361 00:15:08,389 --> 00:15:06,240 collecting this data you do start to 362 00:15:10,790 --> 00:15:08,399 correlate i think as jan alluded to 363 00:15:13,430 --> 00:15:10,800 newspaper accounts with civilian ufo 364 00:15:15,990 --> 00:15:13,440 investigations with government documents 365 00:15:17,990 --> 00:15:16,000 and what i'm working on currently are 366 00:15:20,710 --> 00:15:18,000 vintage archival interview recordings 367 00:15:23,430 --> 00:15:20,720 with ufo witnesses when you synthesize 368 00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:23,440 all these disparate elements it helps 369 00:15:26,389 --> 00:15:25,600 paint a picture it adds color it adds 370 00:15:29,590 --> 00:15:26,399 depth 371 00:15:31,910 --> 00:15:29,600 to this phenomenon that we're looking at 372 00:15:34,470 --> 00:15:31,920 and i think it's somewhat ludicrous that 373 00:15:37,670 --> 00:15:34,480 they arbitrarily want to discount all 374 00:15:39,189 --> 00:15:37,680 this information prior to 2004 when they 375 00:15:40,949 --> 00:15:39,199 themselves have never even looked to see 376 00:15:41,910 --> 00:15:40,959 what data we're sitting on 377 00:15:43,829 --> 00:15:41,920 and so 378 00:15:45,590 --> 00:15:43,839 i find it you know a rather arbitrary 379 00:15:47,590 --> 00:15:45,600 way of approaching the subject i 380 00:15:49,590 --> 00:15:47,600 certainly encourage anyone to come into 381 00:15:51,829 --> 00:15:49,600 the field especially if they have that 382 00:15:53,829 --> 00:15:51,839 scientific acumen to bring to the table 383 00:15:55,910 --> 00:15:53,839 to look at this phenomenon but i think 384 00:15:57,509 --> 00:15:55,920 they're doing themselves a disservice uh 385 00:15:59,670 --> 00:15:57,519 you know at the very beginning by just 386 00:16:01,430 --> 00:15:59,680 arbitrarily ignoring the decades worth 387 00:16:03,189 --> 00:16:01,440 of information that we have 388 00:16:05,990 --> 00:16:03,199 yeah anyone else want to 389 00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:06,000 okay here is a uh 390 00:16:11,509 --> 00:16:08,880 a report from the korean war 391 00:16:13,590 --> 00:16:11,519 in uh 31 392 00:16:15,990 --> 00:16:13,600 may 1952 393 00:16:18,629 --> 00:16:16,000 they brought over the highest tech 394 00:16:21,430 --> 00:16:18,639 aircraft they could from the united 395 00:16:25,910 --> 00:16:23,509 and they didn't want the uh 396 00:16:29,030 --> 00:16:25,920 chinese or north koreans to get it so it 397 00:16:33,110 --> 00:16:29,040 was behind the lines so 398 00:16:36,629 --> 00:16:33,120 uh aerial objects that penetrated the uh 399 00:16:38,470 --> 00:16:36,639 the lines were that this these guys took 400 00:16:40,949 --> 00:16:38,480 care of it they had the 401 00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:40,959 at the time it was the highest tech that 402 00:16:45,350 --> 00:16:43,680 existed f-94 403 00:16:46,550 --> 00:16:45,360 uh 404 00:16:49,430 --> 00:16:46,560 aircraft 405 00:16:51,189 --> 00:16:49,440 uh it could go faster than others and it 406 00:16:55,030 --> 00:16:51,199 it had the uh 407 00:16:58,230 --> 00:16:55,040 uh afterburners so it it could uh 408 00:17:00,069 --> 00:16:58,240 supply more speed it had radar 409 00:17:02,069 --> 00:17:00,079 and these were the 410 00:17:02,949 --> 00:17:02,079 the best trained people they sent over 411 00:17:05,270 --> 00:17:02,959 with 412 00:17:08,710 --> 00:17:05,280 one night 413 00:17:10,390 --> 00:17:08,720 uh one f-94s 414 00:17:13,189 --> 00:17:10,400 uh 415 00:17:14,549 --> 00:17:13,199 kind and so i saw a light 416 00:17:17,270 --> 00:17:14,559 and they 417 00:17:19,270 --> 00:17:17,280 uh went to uh 418 00:17:21,909 --> 00:17:19,280 uh investigate 419 00:17:24,230 --> 00:17:21,919 and this will sound familiar if you 420 00:17:25,110 --> 00:17:24,240 listen to the 421 00:17:30,390 --> 00:17:25,120 uh 422 00:17:31,990 --> 00:17:30,400 flavor and his 423 00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:32,000 companions 424 00:17:36,950 --> 00:17:35,039 from the f-18s they

pretty 470 00:19:32,950 --> 00:19:30,240 remarkable conclusions in saying that 471 00:19:36,549 --> 00:19:32,960 that the phenomenon was real 472 00:19:39,270 --> 00:19:36,559 and was a national security threat 473 00:19:41,830 --> 00:19:39,280 i had decided that 40 years ago when i 474 00:19:43,909 --> 00:19:41,840 wrote content with larry fawcett that 475 00:19:46,549 --> 00:19:43,919 the documents then 476 00:19:47,350 --> 00:19:46,559 alluded to national security threats and 477 00:19:52,310 --> 00:19:47,360 a 478 00:19:54,470 --> 00:19:52,320 more so uh they 479 00:19:57,350 -->

00:20:01,520 at the end was 483 00:20:05,110 --> 00:20:02,559 a letter 484 00:20:08,870 --> 00:20:05,120 that was written in 1947 485 00:20:11,029 --> 00:20:08,880 and signed by general nathan twining

489 00:20:19,110 --> 00:20:16,480 concern about it 490 00:20:21,430 --> 00:20:19,120 that was at the dawn of the modern 491 00:20:23,750 --> 00:20:21,440 flying saucer era 492 00:20:25,830 -->

and aircraft chasing strange objects 633 00:25:33,430 --> 00:25:31,440 sometimes shooting at them 634 00:25:35,029 --> 00:25:33,440 unsuccessfully obviously or i think we 635 00:25:37,430 --> 00:25:35,039 would have had the answer to the 636 00:25:40,149 --> 00:25:37,440 phenomenon by now but still 637 00:25:42,149 --> 00:25:40,159 the national security threat has existed 638 00:25:45,190 --> 00:25:42,159 since the early days of the topic and 639 00:25:47,350 --> 00:25:45,200 it's still there according to the uap 640 00:25:49,909 --> 00:25:47,360 task force i think we need to qualify 641 00:25:52,549 --> 00:25:49,919 that though martin and we need to insert 642 00:25:54,230 --> 00:25:52,559 potential threat 643 00:25:57,029 --> 00:25:54,240 it's a it has to be viewed as a 644 00:25:59,590 --> 00:25:57,039 potential threat if you have unknown 645 00:26:01,350 --> 00:25:59,600 aerial vehicles performing exotic flight 646 00:26:03,590 --> 00:26:01,360 characteristics that can fly rings 647 00:26:06,070 --> 00:26:03,600 around your state-of-the-art aircraft 648 00:26:08,870 --> 00:26:06,080 that are violating military airspace 649 00:26:11,430 --> 00:26:08,880 commercial airspace coming dangerously 650 00:26:14,390 --> 00:26:11,440 close to military assets and 651 00:26:16,070 --> 00:26:14,400 commercial uh air traffic uh it has to 652 00:26:17,350 --> 00:26:16,080 be viewed as a potential threat until 653 00:26:18,950 --> 00:26:17,360 they have a better understanding of what 654 00:26:21,190 --> 00:26:18,960 they're dealing with 655 00:26:22,830 --> 00:26:21,200 the uh go ahead 656 00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:22,840 in uh 657 00:26:26,549 --> 00:26:24,480 1960 658 00:26:28,789 --> 00:26:26,559 uh the national investigations committee 659 00:26:31,029 --> 00:26:28,799 on aerial phenomena sent a confidential 660 00:26:33,430 --> 00:26:31,039 report to congress every congressman 661 00:26:36,149 --> 00:26:33,440 every senator got one 662 00:26:38,549 --> 00:26:36,159 one of the lead cases in there 663 00:26:39,669 --> 00:26:38,559 was about a uh 664 00:26:41,909 --> 00:26:39,679 uh 665 00:26:44,549 --> 00:26:41,919 transport aircraft a military 666 00:26:47,590 --> 00:26:44,559 transporter aircraft 667 00:26:50,230 --> 00:26:47,600 uh flying over the pacific 668 00:26:55,110 --> 00:26:53,590 it's not in blue book however 669 00:26:57,510 --> 00:26:55,120 night camp got a 670 00:26:59,029 --> 00:26:57,520 copy somewhere it was not classified 671 00:27:00,630 --> 00:26:59,039 they got a copy 672 00:27:02,070 --> 00:27:00,640 the uh 673 00:27:05,190 --> 00:27:02,080 uh it's 674 00:27:09,029 --> 00:27:05,200 in the files it's in the us 675 00:27:11,830 --> 00:27:09,039 uh intelli uh intelligence command at 676 00:27:12,950 --> 00:27:11,840 fort eustis that's where that's where we 677 00:27:15,110 --> 00:27:12,960 found that 678 00:27:17,990 --> 00:27:15,120 it's also in kyo's book because he got a 679 00:27:22,470 --> 00:27:18,000 copy of it he put it in this report 680 00:27:25,909 --> 00:27:22,480 the pilot says i felt i had been 681 00:27:31,750 --> 00:27:30,070 wow and they picked it up on radar also 682 00:27:34,830 --> 00:27:31,760 um 683 00:27:40,310 --> 00:27:34,840 so they almost had in 684 00:27:44,310 --> 00:27:41,990 hearings on that 685 00:27:46,310 --> 00:27:44,320 because one of the things is 686 00:27:49,029 --> 00:27:46,320 at the time 687 00:27:51,909 --> 00:27:49,039 the reaction time for 688 00:27:53,430 --> 00:27:51,919 you know to uh launch missiles and and 689 00:27:56,070 --> 00:27:53,440 aircraft 690 00:27:58,470 --> 00:27:56,080 was it was very low and 691 00:28:04,070 --> 00:28:01,110 as far as detecting an attack it was it 692 00:28:06,950 --> 00:28:04,080 was you didn't have that much lead time 693 00:28:10,149 --> 00:28:06,960 it's not much better now but 694 00:28:12,230 --> 00:28:10,159 the nightcap thing was a ufo could be 695 00:28:15,190 --> 00:28:12,240 mistaken 696 00:28:16,870 --> 00:28:15,200 for an attack and we could be launching 697 00:28:18,710 --> 00:28:16,880 a a 698 00:28:20,549 --> 00:28:18,720 counter strike 699 00:28:24,389 --> 00:28:20,559 uh based on 700 00:28:26,310 --> 00:28:24,399 the way these ufos act 701 00:28:28,470 --> 00:28:26,320 uh especially if they're coming over the 702 00:28:31,590 --> 00:28:28,480 polls towards 703 00:28:33,269 --> 00:28:31,600 towards the united states 704 00:28:34,950 --> 00:28:33,279 so they almost had congressional 705 00:28:36,310 --> 00:28:34,960 hearings and they had 706 00:28:40,389 --> 00:28:36,320 they had the 707 00:28:42,950 --> 00:28:40,399 armed forces subcommittee in 65 708 00:28:46,149 --> 00:28:42,960 actually do hearings and then they had a 709 00:28:47,430 --> 00:28:46,159 seminar in the astronautic science 710 00:28:52,470 --> 00:28:47,440 committee 711 00:28:57,590 --> 00:28:54,470 interesting interesting that getting 712 00:29:00,470 --> 00:28:57,600 back just quickly i i failed to mention 713 00:29:03,029 --> 00:29:00,480 that the a guest that's going to be on 714 00:29:06,310 --> 00:29:03,039 that had the encounters one of them 715 00:29:08,710 --> 00:29:06,320 the craft was right over the deck 716 00:29:10,310 --> 00:29:08,720 and they were firing they decided to 717 00:29:12,710 --> 00:29:10,320 fire upon it 718 00:29:14,630 --> 00:29:12,720 fired uh tracer bullets which were 719 00:29:16,710 --> 00:29:14,640 ricocheting and bouncing back to the 720 00:29:18,389 --> 00:29:16,720 deck and they all had to take cover 721 00:29:19,269 --> 00:29:18,399 it's going to be uh that's going to be a 722 00:29:23,029 --> 00:29:19,279 very 723 00:29:24,710 --> 00:29:23,039 interesting talk on again on the 19th so 724 00:29:26,870 --> 00:29:24,720 one of the one of the thoughts i have 725 00:29:29,909 --> 00:29:26,880 now these are just thoughts and i'd like 726 00:29:31,110 --> 00:29:29,919 to get your opinions on this this 727 00:29:34,389 --> 00:29:31,120 thought is 728 00:29:37,430 --> 00:29:34,399 that most likely in my opinion 729 00:29:39,029 --> 00:29:37,440 the military doesn't really know 730 00:29:41,269 --> 00:29:39,039 what this is and they may be a little 731 00:29:42,549 --> 00:29:41,279 bit agitated that it's getting so much 732 00:29:44,149 --> 00:29:42,559 attention 733 00:29:46,549 --> 00:29:44,159 um because 734 00:29:48,950 --> 00:29:46,559 they can't promise us that they can 735 00:29:51,350 --> 00:29:48,960 protect us from whatever it is 736 00:29:53,430 --> 00:29:51,360 and if they say we don't know and we 737 00:29:54,630 --> 00:29:53,440 can't you know we have no idea what's 738 00:29:56,310 --> 00:29:54,640 going on 739 00:29:58,230 --> 00:29:56,320 uh i just think that there's only so 740 00:30:00,549 --> 00:29:58,240 much that's going to come out 741 00:30:02,789 --> 00:30:00,559 for that reason i wondered if anyone 742 00:30:06,310 --> 00:30:02,799 would like to uh 743 00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:06,320 talk about uh your own opinion on that 744 00:30:10,149 --> 00:30:08,399 all right i'm sure that there are many 745 00:30:11,990 --> 00:30:10,159 many hidden incidents out there that 746 00:30:14,470 --> 00:30:12,000 we'll never hear about i 747 00:30:16,389 --> 00:30:14,480 i believe documents uh 748 00:30:19,510 --> 00:30:16,399 have already been destroyed relating to 749 00:30:22,789 --> 00:30:19,520 ufo reports they recall a 750 00:30:25,750 --> 00:30:22,799 reproduction of one and in in 751 00:30:27,669 --> 00:30:25,760 the publication of nycap where 752 00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:27,679 uh 753 00:30:31,750 --> 00:30:29,840 it was clearly marked 754 00:30:34,389 --> 00:30:31,760 for destruction that 755 00:30:37,990 --> 00:30:34,399 as far as i know it was never released 756 00:30:39,909 --> 00:30:38,000 other reports have been said to uh uh 757 00:30:41,430 --> 00:30:39,919 suddenly disappeared out of the files 758 00:30:43,350 --> 00:30:41,440 they can't find them anymore if you 759 00:30:46,710 --> 00:30:43,360 follow foia requests 760 00:30:49,669 --> 00:30:46,720 uh mysteriously they're gone uh their 761 00:30:51,990 --> 00:30:49,679 indications and the release files of 762 00:30:55,750 --> 00:30:52,000 numerous documents 763 00:30:57,830 --> 00:30:55,760 relating to sensitive incidents that 764 00:31:00,950 --> 00:30:57,840 haven't been released in subsequent foia 765 00:31:02,710 --> 00:31:00,960 requests specifically for them 766 00:31:06,230 --> 00:31:02,720 again they're gone whether they were 767 00:31:08,310 --> 00:31:06,240 destroyed or misplaced or 768 00:31:10,230 --> 00:31:08,320 stuffed under an auditorium stage 769 00:31:12,230 --> 00:31:10,240 somewhere in a military base it's hard 770 00:31:13,909 --> 00:31:12,240 to say but there's certainly a lot of 771 00:31:16,549 --> 00:31:13,919 information this 772 00:31:18,389 --> 00:31:16,559 i i've gone through a lot of uh ufo 773 00:31:21,750 --> 00:31:18,399 cases and 774 00:31:24,789 --> 00:31:21,760 looked at reference documents or 775 00:31:27,509 --> 00:31:24,799 things like that i have 1100 776 00:31:29,190 --> 00:31:27,519 my databases in 1100 777 00:31:32,470 --> 00:31:29,200 cases 778 00:31:34,630 --> 00:31:32,480 we also have the uh each intelligence 779 00:31:36,149 --> 00:31:34,640 report that goes through the 780 00:31:37,669 --> 00:31:36,159 pentagon 781 00:31:39,669 --> 00:31:37,679 used to be 782 00:31:41,110 --> 00:31:39,679 uh 783 00:31:41,909 --> 00:31:41,120 it still is 784 00:31:43,590 --> 00:31:41,919 uh 785 00:31:45,750 --> 00:31:43,600 serial numbered 786 00:31:47,830 --> 00:31:45,760 and they produce a reference now it's 787 00:31:49,909 --> 00:31:47,840 carried on computers so we can't get at 788 00:31:53,269 --> 00:31:49,919 it but it used to be on 789 00:31:55,029 --> 00:31:53,279 little index cards about this size 790 00:31:57,029 --> 00:31:55,039 and it had 791 00:32:00,470 --> 00:31:57,039 the serial number the 792 00:32:01,669 --> 00:32:00,480 title of the case where it came from 793 00:32:04,630 --> 00:32:01,679 um 794 00:32:08,549 --> 00:32:04,640 what classification it was who some 795 00:32:11,430 --> 00:32:08,559 places where it went to the cia got five 796 00:32:14,230 --> 00:32:11,440 copies of every case that came through 797 00:32:16,710 --> 00:32:14,240 the pentagon and then they say oh we 798 00:32:19,430 --> 00:32:16,720 only have 900 pages 799 00:32:20,389 --> 00:32:19,440 anyways the database is 800 00:32:23,509 --> 00:32:20,399 uh 801 00:32:24,389 --> 00:32:23,519 nowhere close to complete 802 00:32:28,549 --> 00:32:24,399 and 803 00:32:31,269 --> 00:32:28,559 see if there's another a reference to 804 00:32:33,669 --> 00:32:31,279 another report and the 805 00:32:34,630 --> 00:32:33,679 database if we had more people working 806 00:32:38,389 --> 00:32:34,640 on us 807 00:32:40,149 --> 00:32:38,399 the database would grow 808 00:32:41,350 --> 00:32:40,159 now i was able to go down to the 809 00:32:46,630 --> 00:32:41,360 archives 810 00:32:50,710 --> 00:32:46,640 have collections of intelligence reports 811 00:32:53,909 --> 00:32:50,720 and withdraw a number of these reports 812 00:32:55,990 --> 00:32:53,919 they uh they're not in blue book 813 00:32:56,870 --> 00:32:56,000 sometimes we find out they are in blue 814 00:33:00,310 --> 00:32:56,880 book 815 00:33:02,230 --> 00:33:00,320 um but they're mislabeled or 816 00:33:04,070 --> 00:33:02,240 the way blue book titled them is 817 00:33:05,269 --> 00:33:04,080 different than the way 818 00:33:08,549 --> 00:33:05,279 the case is 819 00:33:10,789 --> 00:33:08,559 titled on the index card so it's a it's 820 00:33:13,669 --> 00:33:10,799 a sifting thing to find these things 821 00:33:17,990 --> 00:33:13,679 sometimes we find out that 822 00:33:21,750 --> 00:33:18,000 like uh 1947 january says uh 823 00:33:26,870 --> 00:33:24,389 mystery sightings in greenland it's 824 00:33:28,710 --> 00:33:26,880 nothing about ufos you would think maybe 825 00:33:30,630 --> 00:33:28,720 it would but it doesn't contain a thing 826 00:33:32,549 --> 00:33:30,640 about ufos it's other 827 00:33:34,070 --> 00:33:32,559 it's another it's other subjects 828 00:33:36,630 --> 00:33:34,080 intelligence 829 00:33:38,789 --> 00:33:36,640 but in a lot of cases i've come up with 830 00:33:41,269 --> 00:33:38,799 new reports 831 00:33:43,110 --> 00:33:41,279 that somehow never got into blue book 832 00:33:44,710 --> 00:33:43,120 for some reason 833 00:33:46,870 --> 00:33:44,720 yeah martin i think 834 00:33:48,389 --> 00:33:46,880 i think with regard to the subject the 835 00:33:50,389 --> 00:33:48,399 fundamental question that we should all 836 00:33:52,389 --> 00:33:50,399 be asking and it's amazing how many ufo 837 00:33:54,470 --> 00:33:52,399 researchers don't even ask this question 838 00:33:55,990 --> 00:33:54,480 in light of the pentagon report 839 00:34:01,190 --> 00:33:56,000 why now 840 00:34:03,029 --> 00:34:01,200 with regard to their position regarding 841 00:34:05,269 --> 00:34:03,039 the subject that is the fundamental 842 00:34:06,789 --> 00:34:05,279 question we should all be asking and i 843 00:34:09,270 --> 00:34:06,799 think that is really at the heart of the 844 00:34:11,030 --> 00:34:09,280 matter now there's a lot of conspiracy 845 00:34:13,190 --> 00:34:11,040 theorists within the ufo community for 846 00:34:15,750 --> 00:34:13,200 those that know me i am not one of them 847 00:34:18,629 --> 00:34:15,760 uh i prefer to look for verifiable 848 00:34:20,550 --> 00:34:18,639 factual well-documented evidence and 849 00:34:23,270 --> 00:34:20,560 it's interesting the conspiracy 850 00:34:26,149 --> 00:34:23,280 theorists whether ufos or otherwise they 851 00:34:28,710 --> 00:34:26,159 always view or frame the government as 852 00:34:30,310 --> 00:34:28,720 uh in the know the government knows 853 00:34:32,550 --> 00:34:30,320 what's going on and they're keeping it 854 00:34:34,629 --> 00:34:32,560 secret the government recover the crash 855 00:34:36,149 --> 00:34:34,639 vehicle in roswell we back engineered it 856 00:34:37,829 --> 00:34:36,159 we know why they're here we're now back 857 00:34:39,750 --> 00:34:37,839 engineering ufos and that's all this 858 00:34:41,430 --> 00:34:39,760 advanced technology 859 00:34:43,349 --> 00:34:41,440 they give the government too much credit 860 00:34:44,790 --> 00:34:43,359 with all due respect all conspiracy 861 00:34:46,869 --> 00:34:44,800 theorists 862 00:34:48,629 --> 00:34:46,879 i believe the quote-unquote government 863 00:34:50,149 --> 00:34:48,639 cover-up based on 31 years of 864 00:34:51,510 --> 00:34:50,159 investigating the subject and i would 865 00:34:53,109 --> 00:34:51,520 defer to my colleagues to get their 866 00:34:56,149 --> 00:34:53,119 opinion on this 867 00:34:58,550 --> 00:34:56,159 all indicators uh point to the fact they 868 00:35:00,310 --> 00:34:58,560 don't know what they're dealing with yes 869 00:35:01,430 --> 00:35:00,320 there's something there they don't know 870 00:35:02,470 --> 00:35:01,440 what it is 871 00:35:04,230 --> 00:35:02,480 but 872 00:35:06,630 --> 00:35:04,240 going back to what i said why now are 873 00:35:08,710 --> 00:35:06,640 they having this change in attitude 874 00:35:10,310 --> 00:35:08,720 towards the subject publicly not in 875 00:35:14,150 --> 00:35:10,320 private but publicly 876 00:35:16,550 --> 00:35:14,160 i think the answer might lie in the 2019 877 00:35:18,069 --> 00:35:16,560 navy spokesman statements when they if 878 00:35:20,390 --> 00:35:18,079 you recall 879 00:35:22,550 --> 00:35:20,400 came out with a news article that stated 880 00:35:24,230 --> 00:35:22,560 they are now formulating official policy 881 00:35:26,150 --> 00:35:24,240 and procedures for naval personnel to 882 00:35:27,990 --> 00:35:26,160 report uaps 883 00:35:30,069 --> 00:35:28,000 it goes on to state in that article i 884 00:35:30,950 --> 00:35:30,079 think this might be a little glimmer 885 00:35:33,510 --> 00:35:30,960 into 886 00:35:35,910 --> 00:35:33,520 the rationale behind all of this they 887 00:35:38,310 --> 00:35:35,920 stated due to the increased frequency 888 00:35:39,589 --> 00:35:38,320 that they are seeing with regard to uap 889 00:35:42,470 --> 00:35:39,599 phenomenon 890 00:35:43,589 --> 00:35:42,480 within restricted military operations 891 00:35:45,670 --> 00:35:43,599 areas 892 00:35:47,589 --> 00:35:45,680 i'm just going to put forth this idea i 893 00:35:49,910 --> 00:35:47,599 could be completely wrong 894 00:35:52,150 --> 00:35:49,920 what if they're seeing this 895 00:35:54,150 --> 00:35:52,160 increase this ever increasing trend of 896 00:35:56,150 --> 00:35:54,160 activity around military operations 897 00:35:58,630 --> 00:35:56,160 areas and what if 898 00:36:01,750 --> 00:35:58,640 that trend continues it's going to get 899 00:36:04,150 --> 00:36:01,760 to a point if that trend continues where 900 00:36:06,470 --> 00:36:04,160 trying to dispel the subject cover up 901 00:36:08,790 --> 00:36:06,480 the subject is untenable they're not 902 00:36:10,870 --> 00:36:08,800 going to be able to do it so to use the 903 00:36:12,790 --> 00:36:10,880 old government term rather than the tail 904 00:36:15,430 --> 00:36:12,800 wag the dog i think they want to get 905 00:36:16,870 --> 00:36:15,440 ahead of the messaging and be in control 906 00:36:18,550 --> 00:36:16,880 of the messaging with regard to the 907 00:36:21,349 --> 00:36:18,560 subject yeah 908 00:36:23,589 --> 00:36:21,359 another thing too i am very curious 909 00:36:25,349 --> 00:36:23,599 about the fact that the navy is taking 910 00:36:28,390 --> 00:36:25,359 the lead on all of this 911 00:36:29,829 --> 00:36:28,400 uh what happened to the air force yeah 912 00:36:31,109 --> 00:36:29,839 yeah i thought i was wondering that 913 00:36:32,790 --> 00:36:31,119 myself 914 00:36:34,870 --> 00:36:32,800 it's very strange i thought of that 915 00:36:38,069 --> 00:36:34,880 supposed to be covering a lot more of 916 00:36:41,109 --> 00:36:38,079 the skies than than perhaps the navy 917 00:36:43,349 --> 00:36:41,119 and the army even the army was open to 918 00:36:45,190 --> 00:36:43,359 one thing the air force uh held slay 919 00:36:46,630 --> 00:36:45,200 over it for many many years and now the 920 00:36:48,230 --> 00:36:46,640 navy's in charge 921 00:36:50,790 --> 00:36:48,240 we haven't heard much of anything from 922 00:36:53,190 --> 00:36:50,800 the air force except in the task force 923 00:36:55,829 --> 00:36:53,200 report it says that they recently 924 00:36:58,550 --> 00:36:55,839 started to coordinate their information 925 00:36:59,589 --> 00:36:58,560 yeah but we haven't seen a flicker of 926 00:37:01,990 --> 00:36:59,599 that yet 927 00:37:04,069 --> 00:37:02,000 to very point martin he brings up a 928 00:37:05,750 --> 00:37:04,079 really good point because also 929 00:37:07,990 --> 00:37:05,760 it's very interesting when you look at 930 00:37:10,150 --> 00:37:08,000 the conclusions of the pentagon report 931 00:37:12,550 --> 00:37:10,160 and contrast that with the three 932 00:37:13,750 --> 00:37:12,560 conclusions that justified shutting down 933 00:37:15,430 --> 00:37:13,760 blue book 934 00:37:18,390 --> 00:37:15,440 for those that may recall one of the 935 00:37:20,550 --> 00:37:18,400 conclusions of project blue book no ufo 936 00:37:24,069 --> 00:37:20,560 has demonstrated any threat to national 937 00:37:26,630 --> 00:37:24,079 security fast forward to 2021 as barry 938 00:37:28,630 --> 00:37:26,640 alluded to earlier they stated that uaps 939 00:37:31,589 --> 00:37:28,640 may constitute a threat to national 940 00:37:33,750 --> 00:37:31,599 security and air safety 941 00:37:36,310 --> 00:37:33,760 so you have a complete contradiction the 942 00:37:37,990 --> 00:37:36,320 navy versus the air force uh they also 943 00:37:41,109 --> 00:37:38,000 go on to state in blue book one of the 944 00:37:42,630 --> 00:37:41,119 conclusions that you ufos have haven't 945 00:37:45,190 --> 00:37:42,640 demonstrated any physical 946 00:37:46,950 --> 00:37:45,200 characteristics or properties that uh 947 00:37:49,190 --> 00:37:46,960 regarding scientific principles that we 948 00:37:51,030 --> 00:37:49,200 don't understand if you read between the 949 00:37:52,550 --> 00:37:51,040 lines in the pentagon report they're 950 00:37:54,310 --> 00:37:52,560 suggesting we don't know how these 951 00:37:56,470 --> 00:37:54,320 things are operating and they clearly 952 00:37:58,710 --> 00:37:56,480 show some type of exotic 953 00:38:00,550 --> 00:37:58,720 physics that's at play as far as how 954 00:38:02,550 --> 00:38:00,560 they fly so there's yet another 955 00:38:05,270 --> 00:38:02,560 contradiction comparing the navy to the 956 00:38:06,950 --> 00:38:05,280 air force and so his i know people were 957 00:38:08,870 --> 00:38:06,960 disappointed in that there wasn't much 958 00:38:11,750 --> 00:38:08,880 meat to the report but two things we got 959 00:38:14,550 --> 00:38:11,760 to remember a it's a preliminary report 960 00:38:17,750 --> 00:38:14,560 and exactly the second point is this is 961 00:38:19,910 --> 00:38:17,760 an unclassified preliminary report uh 962 00:38:21,430 --> 00:38:19,920 those on capitol hill within the senate 963 00:38:23,349 --> 00:38:21,440 intelligence committees are certainly 964 00:38:25,589 --> 00:38:23,359 seeing more information 965 00:38:26,870 --> 00:38:25,599 um but i've always said since this 966 00:38:28,790 --> 00:38:26,880 report's come out if you were 967 00:38:31,349 --> 00:38:28,800 disappointed you had your expectations 968 00:38:33,510 --> 00:38:31,359 set too high i did a live russian 969 00:38:35,990 --> 00:38:33,520 television news back in january and they 970 00:38:37,670 --> 00:38:36,000 asked me what should we expect and i 971 00:38:39,349 --> 00:38:37,680 said in january and thank god i was 972 00:38:40,630 --> 00:38:39,359 proven right because any time you make a 973 00:38:42,150 --> 00:38:40,640 prediction usually you're going to eat 974 00:38:44,230 --> 00:38:42,160 crow later 975 00:38:47,030 --> 00:38:44,240 i stated that i think we all need to 976 00:38:49,190 --> 00:38:47,040 temper our expectations accordingly and 977 00:38:51,270 --> 00:38:49,200 and that was the the best wisdom that i 978 00:38:52,390 --> 00:38:51,280 could give people at the time but you 979 00:38:54,310 --> 00:38:52,400 know there were 980 00:38:55,910 --> 00:38:54,320 the sensationalists the pseudo 981 00:38:58,310 --> 00:38:55,920 researchers out there saying oh they're 982 00:38:59,589 --> 00:38:58,320 going to wheel out the the crashed ufo 983 00:39:01,109 --> 00:38:59,599 from roswell 984 00:39:02,390 --> 00:39:01,119 it's going to be disclosure with a 985 00:39:04,870 --> 00:39:02,400 capital d 986 00:39:06,790 --> 00:39:04,880 and i just sat back and drank my coffee 987 00:39:08,790 --> 00:39:06,800 and just tried to just 988 00:39:11,270 --> 00:39:08,800 temper my expectations accordingly and 989 00:39:12,829 --> 00:39:11,280 wait for the report and justifiably i 990 00:39:15,510 --> 00:39:12,839 think we were right in tempering those 991 00:39:18,550 --> 00:39:15,520 expectations oh the task force report 992 00:39:21,109 --> 00:39:18,560 mentioned 144 ufo incidents collected 993 00:39:22,950 --> 00:39:21,119 since 2004 994 00:39:23,670 --> 00:39:22,960 one was identified 995 00:39:25,030 --> 00:39:23,680 right 996 00:39:31,190 --> 00:39:25,040 far 997 00:39:34,310 --> 00:39:31,200 air force had is uh 998 00:39:36,310 --> 00:39:34,320 explained reports i mean uh 999 00:39:38,230 --> 00:39:36,320 the year i believe the air force's final 1000 00:39:41,750 --> 00:39:38,240 statistics were somewhere around five 1001 00:39:43,990 --> 00:39:41,760 percent unexplained yeah uh and then the 1002 00:39:47,270 --> 00:39:44,000 condon committee which was supposed to 1003 00:39:48,470 --> 00:39:47,280 wrap up the air force investigations by 1004 00:39:51,829 --> 00:39:48,480 by 1005 00:39:54,630 --> 00:39:51,839 using a scientific uh study to 1006 00:39:57,270 --> 00:39:54,640 close down project blue book 1007 00:39:58,550 --> 00:39:57,280 they did a case analysis that uh 1008 00:40:01,349 --> 00:39:58,560 revealed about 1009 00:40:02,910 --> 00:40:01,359 somewhere around 30 percent unknowns 1010 00:40:05,670 --> 00:40:02,920 now we're up to 1011 00:40:08,390 --> 00:40:05,680 99. something percent 1012 00:40:11,670 --> 00:40:08,400 of un uh that are unexplained this is to 1013 00:40:13,990 --> 00:40:11,680 me a rather serious problem 1014 00:40:16,069 --> 00:40:14,000 of course during the vietnam war uh 1015 00:40:19,430 --> 00:40:16,079 there were two uh 1016 00:40:21,750 --> 00:40:19,440 uh at least two projects in vietnam they 1017 00:40:24,069 --> 00:40:21,760 were kept from the condon committee and 1018 00:40:26,470 --> 00:40:24,079 they were kept from project blue book 1019 00:40:28,230 --> 00:40:26,480 one is called have fear 1020 00:40:30,550 --> 00:40:28,240 and they used 1021 00:40:31,750 --> 00:40:30,560 specialized sensors 1022 00:40:34,950 --> 00:40:31,760 to uh 1023 00:40:36,069 --> 00:40:34,960 detect ufos 1024 00:40:39,589 --> 00:40:36,079 and they 1025 00:40:43,190 --> 00:40:39,599 upped the standard for what was a ufo 1026 00:40:45,589 --> 00:40:43,200 and almost all of their cases 1027 00:40:48,150 --> 00:40:45,599 were reportedly 1028 00:40:50,230 --> 00:40:48,160 uh unknown 1029 00:40:52,630 --> 00:40:50,240 so this is amazing and this was hidden 1030 00:40:55,750 --> 00:40:52,640 from the people that are supposedly 1031 00:40:57,589 --> 00:40:55,760 studying ufos at the time the content 1032 00:40:59,750 --> 00:40:57,599 committee 1033 00:41:01,750 --> 00:40:59,760 interesting i i mentioned this on the 1034 00:41:02,870 --> 00:41:01,760 show probably 20 times and probably 1035 00:41:03,910 --> 00:41:02,880 boring the 1036 00:41:05,510 --> 00:41:03,920 the uh 1037 00:41:07,990 --> 00:41:05,520 the listener for every week but i did 1038 00:41:10,710 --> 00:41:08,000 have an insurance agent a broker at my 1039 00:41:12,950 --> 00:41:10,720 house back in the 1990s before i was 1040 00:41:14,790 --> 00:41:12,960 ever looking at this topic and he said 1041 00:41:17,430 --> 00:41:14,800 he was in a special 1042 00:41:20,710 --> 00:41:17,440 segment of the air force during vietnam 1043 00:41:22,230 --> 00:41:20,720 that was studying ufos and i never got 1044 00:41:24,630 --> 00:41:22,240 any details i've never been able to 1045 00:41:26,069 --> 00:41:24,640 reach him again and i'd i'd like to i 1046 00:41:28,390 --> 00:41:26,079 thought i found his name but i can't 1047 00:41:29,430 --> 00:41:28,400 find any information on him 1048 00:41:37,109 --> 00:41:29,440 uh 1049 00:41:39,750 --> 00:41:37,119 information 1050 00:41:42,230 --> 00:41:39,760 nothing in particular but i came across 1051 00:41:44,390 --> 00:41:42,240 a listing for uh 1052 00:41:46,870 --> 00:41:44,400 combat air activity reports during 1053 00:41:48,710 --> 00:41:46,880 vietnam and i always like to check that 1054 00:41:49,589 --> 00:41:48,720 out to see if there's anything unusual 1055 00:41:54,790 --> 00:41:49,599 there 1056 00:41:57,510 --> 00:41:54,800 were numerous references to graft out uh 1057 00:41:59,430 --> 00:41:57,520 reports uh some of which were called 1058 00:42:02,470 --> 00:41:59,440 ufos 1059 00:42:04,309 --> 00:42:02,480 and wait a minute uh i 1060 00:42:07,190 --> 00:42:04,319 we didn't hear much about vietnam over 1061 00:42:09,030 --> 00:42:07,200 the years a few times in the press but 1062 00:42:11,510 --> 00:42:09,040 uh here were 1063 00:42:14,390 --> 00:42:11,520 combat reports talking about it so 1064 00:42:16,550 --> 00:42:14,400 the more i looked the more we found i 1065 00:42:19,589 --> 00:42:16,560 filled two binders full of 1066 00:42:21,910 --> 00:42:19,599 document releases uh about vietnam not 1067 00:42:24,710 --> 00:42:21,920 not just in the national archives but 1068 00:42:27,910 --> 00:42:24,720 uh i checked a few academic sources who 1069 00:42:29,670 --> 00:42:27,920 that had stored old vietnam war 1070 00:42:32,069 --> 00:42:29,680 government papers and 1071 00:42:33,589 --> 00:42:32,079 and the reports are in there too 1072 00:42:35,349 --> 00:42:33,599 you know what's interesting about 1073 00:42:36,950 --> 00:42:35,359 vietnam just to kind of since we have 1074 00:42:39,030 --> 00:42:36,960 barry greenwood here there's an 1075 00:42:41,750 --> 00:42:39,040 interesting correlation between ufo 1076 00:42:43,990 --> 00:42:41,760 reports in vietnam and ufo reports 1077 00:42:46,550 --> 00:42:44,000 during the 75 overflights of the icbm 1078 00:42:48,150 --> 00:42:46,560 missile sites in both instances they 1079 00:42:50,630 --> 00:42:48,160 were referring to them as mystery 1080 00:42:52,710 --> 00:42:50,640 helicopters yeah a friend of mine was 1081 00:42:55,190 --> 00:42:52,720 was a medic in vietnam and he actually 1082 00:42:57,190 --> 00:42:55,200 talked to one of the uh one of the 1083 00:42:59,349 --> 00:42:57,200 fighter pilots and he came back and 1084 00:43:00,710 --> 00:42:59,359 described the the unusual lights that 1085 00:43:03,349 --> 00:43:00,720 they were seeing and he said we were 1086 00:43:05,589 --> 00:43:03,359 calling them mystery helicopters because 1087 00:43:07,270 --> 00:43:05,599 they had the ability to hover unlike an 1088 00:43:10,150 --> 00:43:07,280 aircraft but then they could rapidly 1089 00:43:12,069 --> 00:43:10,160 accelerate and disappear and i believe 1090 00:43:13,670 --> 00:43:12,079 i'm correct in my friends saying that 1091 00:43:15,910 --> 00:43:13,680 the viet cong didn't have any 1092 00:43:17,990 --> 00:43:15,920 helicopters yeah the the authorities 1093 00:43:19,829 --> 00:43:18,000 found it hard to believe it was north 1094 00:43:22,230 --> 00:43:19,839 vietnamese activity because of the way 1095 00:43:24,550 --> 00:43:22,240 the lights behaved yeah we had the same 1096 00:43:26,870 --> 00:43:24,560 thing in 1975 1097 00:43:28,950 --> 00:43:26,880 near the military bases where 1098 00:43:31,990 --> 00:43:28,960 helicopter-like 1099 00:43:34,870 --> 00:43:32,000 objects were seen but they they couldn't 1100 00:43:36,309 --> 00:43:34,880 be clearly identified as such 1101 00:43:38,230 --> 00:43:36,319 and uh 1102 00:43:40,790 --> 00:43:38,240 once at least at lauren air force base 1103 00:43:43,910 --> 00:43:40,800 they wanted to shine a searchlight 1104 00:43:45,990 --> 00:43:43,920 on the object that was hovering over the 1105 00:43:47,270 --> 00:43:46,000 nuclear storage uh 1106 00:43:50,870 --> 00:43:47,280 units and 1107 00:43:52,790 --> 00:43:50,880 and they were afraid to blind the pilot 1108 00:43:55,589 --> 00:43:52,800 whoever the pilot was that they might 1109 00:43:57,910 --> 00:43:55,599 crash into one of the uh the bomb igloos 1110 00:43:58,790 --> 00:43:57,920 and destroy it well what happened was 1111 00:44:03,990 --> 00:43:58,800 they 1112 00:44:05,990 --> 00:44:04,000 identify as clearly as possible what 1113 00:44:06,829 --> 00:44:06,000 these were and eventually they shot off 1114 00:44:10,230 --> 00:44:06,839 towards 1115 00:44:12,470 --> 00:44:10,240 canada uh the aircraft were in pursuit 1116 00:44:14,470 --> 00:44:12,480 they they couldn't catch up with these i 1117 00:44:15,910 --> 00:44:14,480 mean it's hard to believe that that uh 1118 00:44:17,750 --> 00:44:15,920 jet aircraft couldn't catch i think 1119 00:44:18,550 --> 00:44:17,760 those were phantom jets too weren't they 1120 00:44:21,190 --> 00:44:18,560 yes 1121 00:44:22,950 --> 00:44:21,200 yeah they were there there was a unit 1122 00:44:25,190 --> 00:44:22,960 out of plattsburgh that went after these 1123 00:44:27,109 --> 00:44:25,200 uh things and they couldn't uh identify 1124 00:44:29,670 --> 00:44:27,119 them and we never heard anything about 1125 00:44:31,589 --> 00:44:29,680 the canadian end of it uh if they shut 1126 00:44:34,390 --> 00:44:31,599 off into canada where was canada 1127 00:44:37,510 --> 00:44:34,400 security with these objects 1128 00:44:39,829 --> 00:44:37,520 it penetrated u.s military bases canada 1129 00:44:43,589 --> 00:44:39,839 should be worried but nothing is nothing 1130 00:44:48,630 --> 00:44:46,470 amazing amazing um getting back to a 1131 00:44:51,829 --> 00:44:48,640 comment you made david 1132 00:44:52,790 --> 00:44:51,839 i had uh right after december 1133 00:44:56,470 --> 00:44:52,800 um 1134 00:44:58,230 --> 00:44:56,480 16 2017 the new york times article came 1135 00:45:01,270 --> 00:44:58,240 out the following week 1136 00:45:04,870 --> 00:45:01,280 i had stan friedman on along with kathy 1137 00:45:08,150 --> 00:45:04,880 martin and i basically you know titled 1138 00:45:09,270 --> 00:45:08,160 the show stan friedman weighs in on the 1139 00:45:10,870 --> 00:45:09,280 pentagon 1140 00:45:13,510 --> 00:45:10,880 um you know release 1141 00:45:15,670 --> 00:45:13,520 of videos etc and 1142 00:45:17,750 --> 00:45:15,680 the first thing he said in that 1143 00:45:20,390 --> 00:45:17,760 interview and that's my most listened to 1144 00:45:21,670 --> 00:45:20,400 youtube video out there uh but the first 1145 00:45:24,309 --> 00:45:21,680 thing he said 1146 00:45:25,750 --> 00:45:24,319 was why now 1147 00:45:27,670 --> 00:45:25,760 why now 1148 00:45:29,670 --> 00:45:27,680 that's my number one question we need to 1149 00:45:31,589 --> 00:45:29,680 be asking that question because any 1150 00:45:33,750 --> 00:45:31,599 government they don't do things 1151 00:45:35,829 --> 00:45:33,760 arbitrarily they do things for a reason 1152 00:45:37,910 --> 00:45:35,839 they do things with intent 1153 00:45:40,710 --> 00:45:37,920 and i think that really speaks to the 1154 00:45:42,550 --> 00:45:40,720 larger overarching issue of what's going 1155 00:45:44,630 --> 00:45:42,560 on behind the scenes with regard to the 1156 00:45:46,870 --> 00:45:44,640 subject what do they know and why are 1157 00:45:48,550 --> 00:45:46,880 they suddenly having the sea change in 1158 00:45:50,630 --> 00:45:48,560 relation to how they're dealing publicly 1159 00:45:52,950 --> 00:45:50,640 with the subject 1160 00:45:55,589 --> 00:45:52,960 right um you know i've said i've said 1161 00:45:57,030 --> 00:45:55,599 oftentimes on the show many times just 1162 00:45:59,750 --> 00:45:57,040 my opinion 1163 00:46:02,230 --> 00:45:59,760 that and you you kind of echoed that uh 1164 00:46:04,550 --> 00:46:02,240 david and that's the government probably 1165 00:46:06,309 --> 00:46:04,560 doesn't know any more than we do but do 1166 00:46:07,750 --> 00:46:06,319 you think there's some argument to make 1167 00:46:10,230 --> 00:46:07,760 that they may know 1168 00:46:12,390 --> 00:46:10,240 some more or do you believe in general 1169 00:46:14,309 --> 00:46:12,400 they don't know oh i wonder yeah 1170 00:46:16,950 --> 00:46:14,319 potentially i think they know more than 1171 00:46:17,750 --> 00:46:16,960 we do uh but that doesn't necessarily 1172 00:46:19,589 --> 00:46:17,760 mean 1173 00:46:22,069 --> 00:46:19,599 where where these things are coming from 1174 00:46:24,790 --> 00:46:22,079 why they're here what's their intent i 1175 00:46:27,030 --> 00:46:24,800 mean those those those big questions may 1176 00:46:29,270 --> 00:46:27,040 still be elusive but i would like to 1177 00:46:31,510 --> 00:46:29,280 believe with as barry alluded to 1178 00:46:33,510 --> 00:46:31,520 satellite imagery that's capturing these 1179 00:46:35,349 --> 00:46:33,520 things based on radcliff's testimony as 1180 00:46:37,670 --> 00:46:35,359 well as the pentagon's own report i'm 1181 00:46:39,910 --> 00:46:37,680 not this is not supposition on my part 1182 00:46:41,510 --> 00:46:39,920 this is what the pentagon report states 1183 00:46:43,750 --> 00:46:41,520 multiple sensors have tracked these 1184 00:46:46,470 --> 00:46:43,760 things the aegis radar system with the 1185 00:46:47,750 --> 00:46:46,480 2004 nimitz incident satellite imagery 1186 00:46:49,030 --> 00:46:47,760 infrared 1187 00:46:51,430 --> 00:46:49,040 we have these things track on 1188 00:46:54,150 --> 00:46:51,440 ground-based radar airborne radar 1189 00:46:57,109 --> 00:46:54,160 ground-based visual airborne visual 1190 00:46:59,030 --> 00:46:57,119 i would i would hope that based on the 1191 00:47:01,910 --> 00:46:59,040 various sensing apparatus that they have 1192 00:47:04,470 --> 00:47:01,920 as well as uh undersea sonar buoys that 1193 00:47:06,230 --> 00:47:04,480 are detecting these usos and i know that 1194 00:47:08,710 --> 00:47:06,240 through a friend that has a friend in 1195 00:47:11,750 --> 00:47:08,720 the navy that that told me this 1196 00:47:13,510 --> 00:47:11,760 um that they have a lot of information 1197 00:47:15,430 --> 00:47:13,520 and they probably have a little bit more 1198 00:47:18,710 --> 00:47:15,440 specificity as far as what's going on 1199 00:47:21,510 --> 00:47:18,720 than we do but i do feel and again 1200 00:47:23,349 --> 00:47:21,520 speculation those larger overarching 1201 00:47:25,510 --> 00:47:23,359 questions of who are these things where 1202 00:47:26,950 --> 00:47:25,520 are they from why are they here 1203 00:47:29,190 --> 00:47:26,960 they're no closer to those answers than 1204 00:47:31,510 --> 00:47:29,200 we are yeah i i think they have more 1205 00:47:33,750 --> 00:47:31,520 detail but they don't have conclusions 1206 00:47:36,870 --> 00:47:33,760 and all that detail we haven't seen yet 1207 00:47:38,470 --> 00:47:36,880 right so uh coral lorenzen 1208 00:47:41,030 --> 00:47:38,480 the head of the 1209 00:47:42,870 --> 00:47:41,040 era phenomenal resource research 1210 00:47:44,150 --> 00:47:42,880 organization 1211 00:47:46,309 --> 00:47:44,160 uh 1212 00:47:48,150 --> 00:47:46,319 as a feminist 1213 00:47:52,150 --> 00:47:48,160 perspective 1214 00:47:53,990 --> 00:47:52,160 she said um 1215 00:47:57,030 --> 00:47:54,000 daddy won't tell 1216 00:47:57,910 --> 00:47:57,040 but daddy doesn't know 1217 00:47:59,030 --> 00:47:57,920 and 1218 00:48:01,270 --> 00:47:59,040 daddy 1219 00:48:03,349 --> 00:48:01,280 has more and better 1220 00:48:05,190 --> 00:48:03,359 information than we do but they don't 1221 00:48:07,589 --> 00:48:05,200 know 1222 00:48:09,829 --> 00:48:07,599 so uh 1223 00:48:12,470 --> 00:48:09,839 and of course she was you know she was 1224 00:48:16,470 --> 00:48:12,480 very much in the ufos she's the head of 1225 00:48:23,109 --> 00:48:19,030 many many ufo reports and 1226 00:48:26,150 --> 00:48:23,119 dr james mcdonald the physicist at the 1227 00:48:31,030 --> 00:48:26,160 university of arizona 1228 00:48:35,430 --> 00:48:33,589 and then a cover-up of the fall 1229 00:48:37,910 --> 00:48:35,440 follow-up 1230 00:48:41,270 --> 00:48:39,510 there's a book coming out called the 1231 00:48:42,790 --> 00:48:41,280 unidentified 1232 00:48:47,270 --> 00:48:42,800 and that's 1233 00:48:51,670 --> 00:48:48,790 conclusion 1234 00:48:54,390 --> 00:48:51,680 that uh this was not this was an 1235 00:48:56,309 --> 00:48:54,400 intelligence failure almost from the 1236 00:48:59,670 --> 00:48:56,319 beginning 1237 00:49:02,390 --> 00:48:59,680 um the air force wanted to claim 1238 00:49:03,829 --> 00:49:02,400 possession of this and if the cia 1239 00:49:09,910 --> 00:49:03,839 came in 1240 00:49:16,630 --> 00:49:13,510 in an interview with wendell smith 1241 00:49:18,390 --> 00:49:16,640 who was a air force intelligence 1242 00:49:21,030 --> 00:49:18,400 uh he he was 1243 00:49:23,750 --> 00:49:21,040 it was decades afterwards and he was 1244 00:49:27,430 --> 00:49:23,760 still angry about the cia 1245 00:49:29,349 --> 00:49:27,440 sticking their nose into ufos 1246 00:49:31,190 --> 00:49:29,359 he said what did they have their big 1247 00:49:33,190 --> 00:49:31,200 business on this 1248 00:49:35,510 --> 00:49:33,200 well 1249 00:49:38,069 --> 00:49:35,520 the intelligence community works best 1250 00:49:41,270 --> 00:49:38,079 when they all cooperate together 1251 00:49:43,430 --> 00:49:41,280 and this is an intelligence failure here 1252 00:49:45,670 --> 00:49:43,440 and martin if i can add to what jan just 1253 00:49:48,309 --> 00:49:45,680 said uh you know uh 1254 00:49:49,990 --> 00:49:48,319 a colleague chris mellon uh i know your 1255 00:49:51,829 --> 00:49:50,000 audience is familiar with chris he's 1256 00:49:53,270 --> 00:49:51,839 been very prominent since all of this 1257 00:49:55,030 --> 00:49:53,280 has come forward 1258 00:49:56,710 --> 00:49:55,040 chris mellon has made an interesting 1259 00:49:59,030 --> 00:49:56,720 statement publicly and in private to 1260 00:50:00,230 --> 00:49:59,040 myself with regard to the fact that and 1261 00:50:02,710 --> 00:50:00,240 i think it's rather chilling when you 1262 00:50:04,790 --> 00:50:02,720 think about it that he was frustrated 1263 00:50:06,230 --> 00:50:04,800 that within the intelligence networks 1264 00:50:08,470 --> 00:50:06,240 there was no centralization of 1265 00:50:10,150 --> 00:50:08,480 information you had disparate groups 1266 00:50:13,030 --> 00:50:10,160 within the intelligence community that 1267 00:50:15,430 --> 00:50:13,040 were sitting on ufo or uap data but 1268 00:50:17,030 --> 00:50:15,440 nobody was centralizing it and it was an 1269 00:50:19,430 --> 00:50:17,040 interesting comparison he made he said 1270 00:50:20,870 --> 00:50:19,440 it was almost akin to what i saw prior 1271 00:50:22,710 --> 00:50:20,880 to 9 11. 1272 00:50:24,710 --> 00:50:22,720 all these various groups were collecting 1273 00:50:26,309 --> 00:50:24,720 chatter but they weren't making sense 1274 00:50:28,309 --> 00:50:26,319 out of it because no one was sharing and 1275 00:50:30,950 --> 00:50:28,319 centralizing that information and to 1276 00:50:32,230 --> 00:50:30,960 jan's point i i i think that we're 1277 00:50:33,990 --> 00:50:32,240 seeing now 1278 00:50:36,230 --> 00:50:34,000 due to successive public statements and 1279 00:50:38,790 --> 00:50:36,240 documents in light of the pentagon 1280 00:50:40,390 --> 00:50:38,800 report that there are 1281 00:50:43,750 --> 00:50:40,400 efforts to now centralize this 1282 00:50:45,670 --> 00:50:43,760 information and i think we as the 1283 00:50:47,910 --> 00:50:45,680 american public should feel much safer 1284 00:50:51,030 --> 00:50:47,920 in that because at the end of the day 1285 00:50:52,790 --> 00:50:51,040 they're viewing this ufo uat subject 1286 00:50:54,950 --> 00:50:52,800 through the lens of national security 1287 00:50:56,870 --> 00:50:54,960 and the the earlier question martin by 1288 00:50:58,390 --> 00:50:56,880 one of your audience members you know 1289 00:50:59,750 --> 00:50:58,400 and i understand the question when they 1290 00:51:00,950 --> 00:50:59,760 say you know why are they doing this as 1291 00:51:03,349 --> 00:51:00,960 a threat 1292 00:51:05,750 --> 00:51:03,359 we have to understand the audience these 1293 00:51:08,549 --> 00:51:05,760 people their job is tasked with the 1294 00:51:10,150 --> 00:51:08,559 defense of this country so of course 1295 00:51:12,470 --> 00:51:10,160 they're going to view ufos through the 1296 00:51:14,710 --> 00:51:12,480 lens of national security and again as i 1297 00:51:17,589 --> 00:51:14,720 mentioned earlier view it as a potential 1298 00:51:19,670 --> 00:51:17,599 threat until they know better 1299 00:51:23,270 --> 00:51:19,680 i i need to say something i misspoke i 1300 00:51:25,270 --> 00:51:23,280 said wendell steve who was a uh who was 1301 00:51:26,630 --> 00:51:25,280 in the air force yeah 1302 00:51:28,790 --> 00:51:26,640 but uh 1303 00:51:29,990 --> 00:51:28,800 the the man that that i was talking 1304 00:51:33,910 --> 00:51:30,000 about was 1305 00:51:38,870 --> 00:51:37,190 yeah it wasn't it wasn't uh the 1306 00:51:40,950 --> 00:51:38,880 famous uh 1307 00:51:43,510 --> 00:51:40,960 uh guy with uh 1308 00:51:45,430 --> 00:51:43,520 uh ufo photographs 1309 00:51:48,230 --> 00:51:45,440 oh yes he had that big huge collection 1310 00:51:49,750 --> 00:51:48,240 out west no it wasn't him it was it was 1311 00:51:52,549 --> 00:51:49,760 somebody that was in 1312 00:51:54,630 --> 00:51:52,559 the uh the top of us 1313 00:51:56,309 --> 00:51:54,640 air force intelligence 1314 00:51:58,230 --> 00:51:56,319 well we have to take a break a quick 1315 00:52:01,270 --> 00:51:58,240 break in just like three minutes but 1316 00:52:04,870 --> 00:52:01,280 speaking of of that um 1317 00:52:08,150 --> 00:52:04,880 i know that open minds owns that 1318 00:52:08,950 --> 00:52:08,160 collection of photographs from stevens 1319 00:52:10,790 --> 00:52:08,960 and 1320 00:52:12,630 --> 00:52:10,800 i'm just wondering david have you ever 1321 00:52:15,510 --> 00:52:12,640 thought about reaching out to see if 1322 00:52:17,030 --> 00:52:15,520 they would want them in your archives i 1323 00:52:18,870 --> 00:52:17,040 haven't reached out mainly because i've 1324 00:52:19,910 --> 00:52:18,880 had enough to contend with as it is 1325 00:52:22,630 --> 00:52:19,920 currently 1326 00:52:24,790 --> 00:52:22,640 to be completely honest martin um but i 1327 00:52:25,829 --> 00:52:24,800 do believe and barry and jan might be 1328 00:52:27,670 --> 00:52:25,839 able to correct me i think some of that 1329 00:52:29,829 --> 00:52:27,680 went to the archives for ufo research 1330 00:52:31,670 --> 00:52:29,839 didn't it over in sweden uh 1331 00:52:33,349 --> 00:52:31,680 it seems like a little bit of everything 1332 00:52:35,030 --> 00:52:33,359 goes to the archives for you yeah i 1333 00:52:37,910 --> 00:52:35,040 think some of that has been dispersed 1334 00:52:39,750 --> 00:52:37,920 over time but to your point open minds 1335 00:52:41,430 --> 00:52:39,760 with the death of wendell stevens did 1336 00:52:43,990 --> 00:52:41,440 initially acquire it but i think some of 1337 00:52:46,230 --> 00:52:44,000 that has been parsed out to various 1338 00:52:47,670 --> 00:52:46,240 groups and you know it's great the work 1339 00:52:50,470 --> 00:52:47,680 we're doing here but it's also great 1340 00:52:52,390 --> 00:52:50,480 with the work of afu in sweden and all 1341 00:52:54,309 --> 00:52:52,400 of these other groups across the globe 1342 00:52:56,630 --> 00:52:54,319 because there shouldn't be one location 1343 00:52:59,109 --> 00:52:56,640 for all ufo history we should have 1344 00:53:01,510 --> 00:52:59,119 respective archives ideally in every 1345 00:53:03,510 --> 00:53:01,520 country uh because at the day it's part 1346 00:53:05,990 --> 00:53:03,520 of that country's history yeah can you 1347 00:53:08,710 --> 00:53:06,000 imagine collecting ufo history in one 1348 00:53:10,549 --> 00:53:08,720 building and suddenly a spark takes 1349 00:53:11,589 --> 00:53:10,559 effect and the whole thing goes up in 1350 00:53:13,109 --> 00:53:11,599 smoke 1351 00:53:15,190 --> 00:53:13,119 yeah that would be like that ancient 1352 00:53:16,790 --> 00:53:15,200 library that was burned right uh 1353 00:53:18,069 --> 00:53:16,800 alexandria 1354 00:53:20,630 --> 00:53:18,079 exactly that's what i was thinking of 1355 00:53:22,870 --> 00:53:20,640 yes all right so i think we're gonna go 1356 00:53:25,910 --> 00:53:22,880 into uh we do have another question in 1357 00:53:29,190 --> 00:53:25,920 chat but um this has

best ufo evidence well i don't know if 1392 00:55:21,910 --> 00:55:18,799 we really have evidence here as such 1393 00:55:24,069 --> 00:55:21,920 rather reports of cases uh 1394 00:55:27,030 --> 00:55:24,079 very well i have a copy of joe 1395 00:55:29,190 --> 00:55:27,040 simonson's pancake from 1961. i think 1396 00:55:30,950 --> 00:55:29,200 that's pretty cool 1397 00:55:33,270 --> 00:55:30,960 that's definitely evidence you have to 1398 00:55:34,470 --> 00:55:33,280 tell the story on that one real quick 1399 00:55:36,150 --> 00:55:34,480 oh well 1400 00:55:38,510 --> 00:55:36,160 basically 1401 00:55:40,870 --> 00:55:38,520 joe simonton was in contact with 1402 00:55:42,630 --> 00:55:40,880 extraterrestrials that landed in his uh 1403 00:55:45,430 --> 00:55:42,640 yard and oh yes 1404 00:55:48,630 --> 00:55:45,440 that's an old very old case uh 1405 00:55:52,470 --> 00:55:48,640 very argued over but you know it's it's 1406 00:55:55,030 --> 00:55:52,480 it involved him uh giving some water to 1407 00:55:56,789 --> 00:55:55,040 these creatures in exchange for 1408 00:55:59,190 --> 00:55:56,799 what were 1409 00:56:02,230 --> 00:55:59,200 what seemed to be pancakes 1410 00:56:04,150 --> 00:56:02,240 and he uh he he weighed those around 1411 00:56:05,430 --> 00:56:04,160 people and showed them that he had 1412 00:56:08,150 --> 00:56:05,440 pieces of 1413 00:56:09,670 --> 00:56:08,160 extraterrestrial food apparently and 1414 00:56:12,950 --> 00:56:09,680 and 1415 00:56:15,670 --> 00:56:12,960 the organization nycap 1416 00:56:17,750 --> 00:56:15,680 as they had to do with ufo incidents 1417 00:56:19,910 --> 00:56:17,760 looked into it and you know i'm sure 1418 00:56:21,910 --> 00:56:19,920 they were skeptical about it but 1419 00:56:23,910 --> 00:56:21,920 uh they had a 1420 00:56:25,990 --> 00:56:23,920 local investigator up there obtain a 1421 00:56:28,630 --> 00:56:26,000 piece of the pancake 1422 00:56:30,549 --> 00:56:28,640 uh for analysis and they had determined 1423 00:56:32,710 --> 00:56:30,559 that it 1424 00:56:34,950 --> 00:56:32,720 seemed to be terrestrial nothing special 1425 00:56:38,390 --> 00:56:34,960 about it 1426 00:56:41,270 --> 00:56:38,400 and the piece ended up in their files 1427 00:56:43,589 --> 00:56:41,280 and many years went by 1428 00:56:46,390 --> 00:56:43,599 uh eventually 1429 00:56:50,309 --> 00:56:46,400 an investigator ted bloacher who had a 1430 00:56:52,549 --> 00:56:50,319 project to study humanity reports 1431 00:56:54,630 --> 00:56:52,559 gave his files up he was moving on to 1432 00:56:56,789 --> 00:56:54,640 other things and and he asked me if i 1433 00:56:57,670 --> 00:56:56,799 would take his humcat files as he called 1434 00:57:02,549 --> 00:56:57,680 them 1435 00:57:05,190 --> 00:57:02,559 all uh 1436 00:57:07,349 --> 00:57:05,200 and i came across this one file on on 1437 00:57:08,630 --> 00:57:07,359 eagle river wisconsin which was that 1438 00:57:10,309 --> 00:57:08,640 story and 1439 00:57:12,549 --> 00:57:10,319 i was shocked when i opened it up i 1440 00:57:14,950 --> 00:57:12,559 found an envelope and there's 1441 00:57:17,510 --> 00:57:14,960 wax paper inside 1442 00:57:20,069 --> 00:57:17,520 and wax paper wrapped up a piece of this 1443 00:57:23,430 --> 00:57:20,079 pancake that nightcap had talked about 1444 00:57:26,710 --> 00:57:23,440 and became a sort of a car celeb for 1445 00:57:28,630 --> 00:57:26,720 a lot of ufo believers but um it wasn't 1446 00:57:30,150 --> 00:57:28,640 it wasn't evidence of extraterrestrials 1447 00:57:32,710 --> 00:57:30,160 at all but it's just a really cool 1448 00:57:35,109 --> 00:57:32,720 artifact i've been tempted to taste it 1449 00:57:37,030 --> 00:57:35,119 with a little maple for it but yeah 1450 00:57:39,190 --> 00:57:37,040 probably be costing myself a lot of 1451 00:57:41,109 --> 00:57:39,200 money yeah that's right put it in the 1452 00:57:42,950 --> 00:57:41,119 microwave first and put a little batter 1453 00:57:46,069 --> 00:57:42,960 on it that's pretty hard 1454 00:57:48,230 --> 00:57:46,079 well let's go some real evidence please 1455 00:57:50,390 --> 00:57:48,240 okay 1456 00:57:53,430 --> 00:57:50,400 brett sparks and i've been looking for 1457 00:57:54,789 --> 00:57:53,440 broadcasting ufos 1458 00:57:56,789 --> 00:57:54,799 and 1459 00:57:58,870 --> 00:57:56,799 one of the first cases was all the way 1460 00:58:01,270 --> 00:57:58,880 back in 51 1461 00:58:03,589 --> 00:58:01,280 larson air force base 1462 00:58:06,230 --> 00:58:03,599 and they have uh 1463 00:58:09,190 --> 00:58:06,240 military aircraft have 1464 00:58:11,030 --> 00:58:09,200 coded recognition signals 1465 00:58:13,990 --> 00:58:11,040 so you send out a res 1466 00:58:15,349 --> 00:58:14,000 recognition signal and then the 1467 00:58:20,069 --> 00:58:15,359 uh 1468 00:58:22,870 --> 00:58:20,079 aircraft sends you back 1469 00:58:24,950 --> 00:58:22,880 using your uh computer 1470 00:58:26,150 --> 00:58:24,960 thing you it'll send you back a class 1471 00:58:27,270 --> 00:58:26,160 fight 1472 00:58:30,950 --> 00:58:27,280 uh 1473 00:58:33,750 --> 00:58:30,960 saying this is who i am 1474 00:58:36,789 --> 00:58:33,760 and so they did that with uh 1475 00:58:39,589 --> 00:58:36,799 with this case in larson air force base 1476 00:58:41,589 --> 00:58:39,599 that rupell talks about in his book but 1477 00:58:43,589 --> 00:58:41,599 he doesn't mention 1478 00:58:45,109 --> 00:58:43,599 that they send it out send out the coded 1479 00:58:48,789 --> 00:58:45,119 signal and 1480 00:58:51,750 --> 00:58:48,799 the ufo replied with a coded signal 1481 00:58:54,710 --> 00:58:51,760 so how does it have that code well one 1482 00:58:56,230 --> 00:58:54,720 might say oh it's just a uh 1483 00:58:56,950 --> 00:58:56,240 a uh 1484 00:58:57,910 --> 00:58:56,960 a 1485 00:59:00,309 --> 00:58:57,920 secret 1486 00:59:02,069 --> 00:59:00,319 mission going on that the people at 1487 00:59:04,870 --> 00:59:02,079 larsen didn't know 1488 00:59:05,750 --> 00:59:04,880 it apparently at one time this case was 1489 00:59:08,870 --> 00:59:05,760 uh 1490 00:59:11,190 --> 00:59:08,880 top secret and had been downgraded and 1491 00:59:13,670 --> 00:59:11,200 given to blue book 1492 00:59:15,910 --> 00:59:13,680 um there's a number of other cases like 1493 00:59:17,109 --> 00:59:15,920 that in the file where they're 1494 00:59:20,789 --> 00:59:17,119 receiving 1495 00:59:22,549 --> 00:59:20,799 transmissions of something 1496 00:59:24,870 --> 00:59:22,559 and they don't include enough 1497 00:59:25,829 --> 00:59:24,880 information in the report for you to do 1498 00:59:26,789 --> 00:59:25,839 something 1499 00:59:29,109 --> 00:59:26,799 but 1500 00:59:30,390 --> 00:59:29,119 it would seem to me that obviously that 1501 00:59:31,829 --> 00:59:30,400 would be something you're very 1502 00:59:33,589 --> 00:59:31,839 interested 1503 00:59:35,349 --> 00:59:33,599 and martin related to the question you 1504 00:59:37,270 --> 00:59:35,359 know regarding evidence and i wrote 1505 00:59:39,829 --> 00:59:37,280 about this in my book it really depends 1506 00:59:42,710 --> 00:59:39,839 on what you define as evidence if if 1507 00:59:44,230 --> 00:59:42,720 we're talking physical evidence of a ufo 1508 00:59:46,309 --> 00:59:44,240 or an extraterrestrial we don't have 1509 00:59:48,150 --> 00:59:46,319 that and i would challenge anyone who 1510 00:59:50,150 --> 00:59:48,160 says they have that to bring that forth 1511 00:59:52,470 --> 00:59:50,160 to the scientific community to analyze 1512 00:59:53,990 --> 00:59:52,480 but really what we do as i mentioned 1513 00:59:56,069 --> 00:59:54,000 earlier is we have 1514 00:59:58,069 --> 00:59:56,079 decades worth of military civilian 1515 01:00:00,870 --> 00:59:58,079 reports and the ones that are most 1516 01:00:03,589 --> 01:00:00,880 compelling to get to the question is 1517 01:00:06,230 --> 01:00:03,599 the cases are the cases that involve 1518 01:00:08,390 --> 01:00:06,240 radar in addition to visual sightings 1519 01:00:11,030 --> 01:00:08,400 where you have objective measures that 1520 01:00:12,230 --> 01:00:11,040 are supporting the subjective human 1521 01:00:14,710 --> 01:00:12,240 perception 1522 01:00:16,630 --> 01:00:14,720 and there's many compelling cases where 1523 01:00:19,190 --> 01:00:16,640 many of these objects have been detected 1524 01:00:21,030 --> 01:00:19,200 on multiple radar systems in addition to 1525 01:00:22,150 --> 01:00:21,040 being seen by multiple trained military 1526 01:00:24,069 --> 01:00:22,160 observers 1527 01:00:26,829 --> 01:00:24,079 the best evidence we have is the 1528 01:00:29,829 --> 01:00:26,839 evidence of it being an unexplained 1529 01:00:32,789 --> 01:00:29,839 phenomenon not not much beyond that it's 1530 01:00:34,390 --> 01:00:32,799 just a weird phenomenon that is 1531 01:00:36,630 --> 01:00:34,400 tough to define 1532 01:00:38,470 --> 01:00:36,640 there's plenty of evidence of that in 1533 01:00:40,829 --> 01:00:38,480 terms of the reports but if you're 1534 01:00:42,710 --> 01:00:40,839 talking about artifacts 1535 01:00:44,630 --> 01:00:42,720 uh 1536 01:00:46,710 --> 01:00:44,640 you can't point at any one thing and say 1537 01:00:49,030 --> 01:00:46,720 it's it's from space or 1538 01:00:51,030 --> 01:00:49,040 other dimensions or whatever it's it's 1539 01:00:54,390 --> 01:00:51,040 nothing nothing in the civilian sector 1540 01:00:56,390 --> 01:00:54,400 so we we have uh 1541 01:00:58,309 --> 01:00:56,400 uh i'm interested in close encounter 1542 01:01:02,630 --> 01:00:58,319 cases where there's 1543 01:01:04,549 --> 01:01:02,640 some kind of effect like stalling cars 1544 01:01:06,630 --> 01:01:04,559 turning out the lights 1545 01:01:08,710 --> 01:01:06,640 um 1546 01:01:11,349 --> 01:01:08,720 things like that 1547 01:01:13,270 --> 01:01:11,359 now there's there's almost 2 000 of 1548 01:01:15,190 --> 01:01:13,280 these cases 1549 01:01:17,430 --> 01:01:15,200 that we know of 1550 01:01:20,390 --> 01:01:17,440 and in almost 1551 01:01:22,549 --> 01:01:20,400 just one or two cases has the car broad 1552 01:01:25,190 --> 01:01:22,559 been brought in to be examined 1553 01:01:27,430 --> 01:01:25,200 afterwards i mean they they say oh we 1554 01:01:30,069 --> 01:01:27,440 took it to a mechanic and he said i 1555 01:01:32,390 --> 01:01:30,079 can't figure out why it would do that 1556 01:01:35,030 --> 01:01:32,400 but it hasn't actually been well 1557 01:01:37,910 --> 01:01:35,040 investigated content committee 1558 01:01:40,470 --> 01:01:37,920 uh roy craig went out and he had a 1559 01:01:43,349 --> 01:01:40,480 compass and he ran the compass over the 1560 01:01:45,190 --> 01:01:43,359 hood of the car that is not a scientific 1561 01:01:46,470 --> 01:01:45,200 investigation 1562 01:01:47,270 --> 01:01:46,480 the uh 1563 01:01:49,990 --> 01:01:47,280 uh 1564 01:01:53,829 --> 01:01:50,000 the guys in britain brought a car in and 1565 01:01:55,990 --> 01:01:53,839 they tore it apart to look at what was 1566 01:01:59,190 --> 01:01:56,000 different about it afterwards 1567 01:02:03,029 --> 01:01:59,200 in a lot of cases it burns out the fuses 1568 01:02:05,430 --> 01:02:03,039 um wow so it's 1569 01:02:07,829 --> 01:02:05,440 this is something that that somebody 1570 01:02:10,789 --> 01:02:07,839 with some scientific 1571 01:02:13,349 --> 01:02:10,799 acumen could actually examine 1572 01:02:15,910 --> 01:02:13,359 but it is seldom have 1573 01:02:17,109 --> 01:02:15,920 has been that and and to jan's point 1574 01:02:18,950 --> 01:02:17,119 getting back to what i alluded to 1575 01:02:20,390 --> 01:02:18,960 earlier martin with regard to looking at 1576 01:02:23,430 --> 01:02:20,400 patterns in the data 1577 01:02:25,349 --> 01:02:23,440 you can take the uh ground vehicle 1578 01:02:26,789 --> 01:02:25,359 interference cases and then look at 1579 01:02:29,750 --> 01:02:26,799 characteristics 1580 01:02:32,870 --> 01:02:29,760 that also match other cases one that i 1581 01:02:35,670 --> 01:02:32,880 think of is 1973 mansfield ohio the 1582 01:02:38,230 --> 01:02:35,680 colonel coin case where this military 1583 01:02:40,069 --> 01:02:38,240 helicopter was caught in this light that 1584 01:02:42,150 --> 01:02:40,079 actually pulled it up despite the fact 1585 01:02:43,349 --> 01:02:42,160 that they were in a downward trajectory 1586 01:02:44,549 --> 01:02:43,359 according to the controls in the 1587 01:02:46,950 --> 01:02:44,559 helicopter 1588 01:02:48,549 --> 01:02:46,960 but in the days weeks and months 1589 01:02:51,190 --> 01:02:48,559 following that 1590 01:02:54,150 --> 01:02:51,200 that helicopter became the hangar queen 1591 01:02:56,630 --> 01:02:54,160 they had all kinds of electronic 1592 01:02:58,150 --> 01:02:56,640 failures with that helicopter and the 1593 01:02:59,990 --> 01:02:58,160 only thing that they can tie it to was a 1594 01:03:02,630 --> 01:03:00,000 direct result of it being in the beam of 1595 01:03:04,390 --> 01:03:02,640 this ufo so to jan's point it's not just 1596 01:03:06,150 --> 01:03:04,400 ground vehicles but even airborne 1597 01:03:08,630 --> 01:03:06,160 vehicles that have sustained 1598 01:03:11,109 --> 01:03:08,640 some type of damage as a result of being 1599 01:03:13,190 --> 01:03:11,119 in close proximity these ufos 1600 01:03:14,390 --> 01:03:13,200 and what do you think you know you keep 1601 01:03:17,670 --> 01:03:14,400 hearing about 1602 01:03:20,710 --> 01:03:17,680 the meta materials the possible crash 1603 01:03:23,510 --> 01:03:20,720 um artifacts that migs may or may not 1604 01:03:25,510 --> 01:03:23,520 exist i don't know i personally 1605 01:03:27,670 --> 01:03:25,520 it's in the gray basket for me whether 1606 01:03:28,630 --> 01:03:27,680 these things even though you know some 1607 01:03:30,950 --> 01:03:28,640 pretty 1608 01:03:34,150 --> 01:03:30,960 high up there people including 1609 01:03:37,109 --> 01:03:34,160 louis uh lou elizondo kind of 1610 01:03:37,990 --> 01:03:37,119 hints to the fact that these things are 1611 01:03:40,390 --> 01:03:38,000 uh 1612 01:03:42,710 --> 01:03:40,400 are known to exist 1613 01:03:43,990 --> 01:03:42,720 and what are any comments on that from 1614 01:03:46,150 --> 01:03:44,000 any one of you and i i'm going to be 1615 01:03:47,510 --> 01:03:46,160 pulling up questions on chat uh right 1616 01:03:49,750 --> 01:03:47,520 after that 1617 01:03:51,589 --> 01:03:49,760 and as i said i don't know of any 1618 01:03:53,109 --> 01:03:51,599 artifacts that have proven to be 1619 01:03:54,309 --> 01:03:53,119 anything 1620 01:03:57,510 --> 01:03:54,319 that 1621 01:04:00,710 --> 01:03:57,520 would substantiate ufos as something 1622 01:04:03,349 --> 01:04:00,720 really exotic uh meta materials well 1623 01:04:04,630 --> 01:04:03,359 hints are okay but we're not seeing any 1624 01:04:06,549 --> 01:04:04,640 information 1625 01:04:09,270 --> 01:04:06,559 and that none of it's really come out 1626 01:04:12,230 --> 01:04:09,280 except for generalities uh in the last 1627 01:04:13,670 --> 01:04:12,240 few years since it first surfaced yeah 1628 01:04:15,589 --> 01:04:13,680 i'm like you martin i'm pretty much an 1629 01:04:17,349 --> 01:04:15,599 agnostic when it comes to that not 1630 01:04:18,870 --> 01:04:17,359 denying that they don't exist and i hope 1631 01:04:21,109 --> 01:04:18,880 they do exist because i think we all 1632 01:04:23,190 --> 01:04:21,119 want physical evidence of something 1633 01:04:24,789 --> 01:04:23,200 that is suggested that this is someone 1634 01:04:27,430 --> 01:04:24,799 else's technology 1635 01:04:29,430 --> 01:04:27,440 um but if there is physical evidence i 1636 01:04:31,589 --> 01:04:29,440 would compel you know whoever has that 1637 01:04:33,430 --> 01:04:31,599 material to bring it forth to the 1638 01:04:35,270 --> 01:04:33,440 general scientific community so it can 1639 01:04:36,950 --> 01:04:35,280 be researched and studied at multiple 1640 01:04:39,510 --> 01:04:36,960 independent laboratories because that's 1641 01:04:41,670 --> 01:04:39,520 what we do right in science we get 1642 01:04:44,230 --> 01:04:41,680 multiple groups to analyze the data and 1643 01:04:46,150 --> 01:04:44,240 then we compare the results and so 1644 01:04:47,910 --> 01:04:46,160 um it's interesting that they're talking 1645 01:04:49,750 --> 01:04:47,920 about it i just wish that they would 1646 01:04:53,270 --> 01:04:49,760 afford the general scientific community 1647 01:04:55,589 --> 01:04:53,280 the access to those materials so um yeah 1648 01:04:58,150 --> 01:04:55,599 bigelow had uh 1649 01:04:59,109 --> 01:04:58,160 certain things that were sent to him or 1650 01:05:02,470 --> 01:04:59,119 that 1651 01:05:05,270 --> 01:05:02,480 his people collected during the uh 1652 01:05:06,789 --> 01:05:05,280 uh during his uh sub contract 1653 01:05:09,349 --> 01:05:06,799 investigation 1654 01:05:11,589 --> 01:05:09,359 um the university 1655 01:05:14,309 --> 01:05:11,599 of uh 1656 01:05:16,069 --> 01:05:14,319 las vegas unlv 1657 01:05:18,470 --> 01:05:16,079 examined some of those things and they 1658 01:05:22,950 --> 01:05:18,480 were all mostly mundane 1659 01:05:23,829 --> 01:05:22,960 including a jar of muddy water 1660 01:05:25,430 --> 01:05:23,839 so 1661 01:05:27,589 --> 01:05:25,440 um 1662 01:05:29,910 --> 01:05:27,599 now they did it for free they wanted 1663 01:05:31,589 --> 01:05:29,920 bigelow to give him give them more 1664 01:05:34,950 --> 01:05:31,599 business 1665 01:05:38,230 --> 01:05:34,960 but nothing that they did in the initial 1666 01:05:42,069 --> 01:05:38,240 examination of what he had 1667 01:05:45,029 --> 01:05:42,079 submitted was was anything 1668 01:05:46,950 --> 01:05:45,039 uh that was exotic 1669 01:05:49,029 --> 01:05:46,960 um 1670 01:05:51,589 --> 01:05:49,039 and that that 1671 01:05:52,870 --> 01:05:51,599 story died really quickly because there 1672 01:05:54,549 --> 01:05:52,880 was no 1673 01:05:57,510 --> 01:05:54,559 oomph behind it 1674 01:06:00,470 --> 01:05:57,520 sure i remember the the story about arts 1675 01:06:03,190 --> 01:06:00,480 parts i think a linda moulton had them 1676 01:06:05,510 --> 01:06:03,200 as well and one of them ended up being a 1677 01:06:07,750 --> 01:06:05,520 part to a radiate a car radiator you 1678 01:06:09,430 --> 01:06:07,760 know i mean the metal i don't know if uh 1679 01:06:10,870 --> 01:06:09,440 if any of you followed any of that but 1680 01:06:12,870 --> 01:06:10,880 that was right yeah that was pretty 1681 01:06:15,510 --> 01:06:12,880 interesting so here's uh here's a 1682 01:06:18,710 --> 01:06:15,520 question directly for you david uh why 1683 01:06:19,990 --> 01:06:18,720 belgium for the late 80s 90s triangle 1684 01:06:22,309 --> 01:06:20,000 flap 1685 01:06:23,910 --> 01:06:22,319 well that's a good question i i really 1686 01:06:25,589 --> 01:06:23,920 obviously don't know and i don't think 1687 01:06:28,069 --> 01:06:25,599 the belgian air force knows after all 1688 01:06:30,789 --> 01:06:28,079 these decades but what's interesting is 1689 01:06:33,510 --> 01:06:30,799 you look at the 80s in the 90s actually 1690 01:06:35,270 --> 01:06:33,520 it was 89 to 91 really respectively that 1691 01:06:36,789 --> 01:06:35,280 that wave of sightings that they're 1692 01:06:37,990 --> 01:06:36,799 referencing 1693 01:06:40,630 --> 01:06:38,000 leading up to that and i've had 1694 01:06:41,829 --> 01:06:40,640 discussions with researchers in wales 1695 01:06:45,990 --> 01:06:41,839 and england 1696 01:06:47,990 --> 01:06:46,000 about this is starting around 1983 1697 01:06:50,549 --> 01:06:48,000 around 1986 1698 01:06:52,630 --> 01:06:50,559 in wales you were having sightings uh in 1699 01:06:54,309 --> 01:06:52,640 january of 83 specifically i'm working 1700 01:06:56,069 --> 01:06:54,319 with a group right now in wales that's 1701 01:06:58,549 --> 01:06:56,079 doing a documentary on this 1702 01:07:01,589 --> 01:06:58,559 there was a wave of triangular ufo 1703 01:07:02,950 --> 01:07:01,599 sightings over whales and when you look 1704 01:07:04,630 --> 01:07:02,960 and again this is where i talk about the 1705 01:07:06,950 --> 01:07:04,640 big picture martin looking at patterns 1706 01:07:08,870 --> 01:07:06,960 in the data you look at that and it's 1707 01:07:11,750 --> 01:07:08,880 almost as if the activity tended to 1708 01:07:14,150 --> 01:07:11,760 shift to the southeast down towards the 1709 01:07:17,190 --> 01:07:14,160 english channel you started getting all 1710 01:07:20,150 --> 01:07:17,200 of these reports in southern england 1711 01:07:22,789 --> 01:07:20,160 and then within literally weeks of the 1712 01:07:25,670 --> 01:07:22,799 belgian wave you now suddenly had that 1713 01:07:27,510 --> 01:07:25,680 activity shift to belgium apparently 1714 01:07:29,750 --> 01:07:27,520 from england despite that there were 1715 01:07:31,190 --> 01:07:29,760 still sightings going on in england 1716 01:07:33,029 --> 01:07:31,200 but when you look at the distance across 1717 01:07:33,910 --> 01:07:33,039 the english channel by air that's 1718 01:07:35,750 --> 01:07:33,920 nothing 1719 01:07:37,750 --> 01:07:35,760 and so 1720 01:07:39,510 --> 01:07:37,760 we see these patterns of activity that 1721 01:07:42,630 --> 01:07:39,520 seem to shift and so 1722 01:07:45,109 --> 01:07:42,640 again belgium wasn't isolated although 1723 01:07:47,109 --> 01:07:45,119 i would argue it wasn't the belgian ufo 1724 01:07:48,870 --> 01:07:47,119 sightings that were unique rather the 1725 01:07:51,910 --> 01:07:48,880 way that the media and the belgian 1726 01:07:53,349 --> 01:07:51,920 military uh approached it and discussed 1727 01:07:55,029 --> 01:07:53,359 it publicly 1728 01:07:58,150 --> 01:07:55,039 much different than the united states 1729 01:08:00,549 --> 01:07:58,160 air force uh take on ufo subject and 1730 01:08:03,589 --> 01:08:00,559 what about the controversial photo that 1731 01:08:04,950 --> 01:08:03,599 looked so good i know i know it's uh has 1732 01:08:06,630 --> 01:08:04,960 not been able to been 1733 01:08:09,190 --> 01:08:06,640 replicated as well it's kind of a 1734 01:08:10,870 --> 01:08:09,200 mystery yeah well i i always say this is 1735 01:08:13,109 --> 01:08:10,880 not my opinion this is the opinion of 1736 01:08:15,510 --> 01:08:13,119 the lead investigator patrick ferran a 1737 01:08:17,990 --> 01:08:15,520 friend of mine and the lead investigator 1738 01:08:20,309 --> 01:08:18,000 with sobeps now kobeps but it was called 1739 01:08:21,910 --> 01:08:20,319 sobeps at that time and they did the 1740 01:08:25,110 --> 01:08:21,920 lead investigations he knows the 1741 01:08:27,910 --> 01:08:25,120 photographer and in their opinion in 1742 01:08:30,309 --> 01:08:27,920 patrick's opinion and their experts it 1743 01:08:31,669 --> 01:08:30,319 was in fact a hoaxed photo 1744 01:08:33,910 --> 01:08:31,679 and it's interesting though because i 1745 01:08:36,630 --> 01:08:33,920 always love to use this as an example of 1746 01:08:39,030 --> 01:08:36,640 how skeptics will take one thing and 1747 01:08:41,749 --> 01:08:39,040 generalize it to a ridiculous degree 1748 01:08:43,910 --> 01:08:41,759 they'll say you see the photo the famous 1749 01:08:46,789 --> 01:08:43,920 photo was fake therefore there's no 1750 01:08:48,470 --> 01:08:46,799 validity to any of the sightings 1751 01:08:50,630 --> 01:08:48,480 which is ridiculous that's like saying i 1752 01:08:52,789 --> 01:08:50,640 have a counterfeit 20 bill therefore all 1753 01:08:55,749 --> 01:08:52,799 the 20 bills that you're holding in your 1754 01:08:57,590 --> 01:08:55,759 wallets and purses are counterfeit 1755 01:08:59,430 --> 01:08:57,600 exactly yeah that is kind of that is 1756 01:09:00,870 --> 01:08:59,440 kind of frustrating 1757 01:09:02,470 --> 01:09:00,880 well the old saying that throwing the 1758 01:09:03,430 --> 01:09:02,480 baby out with the bath water seems to 1759 01:09:05,349 --> 01:09:03,440 happen 1760 01:09:06,870 --> 01:09:05,359 quite a bit when it comes to these i'm 1761 01:09:07,669 --> 01:09:06,880 going to pull up that image as soon as i 1762 01:09:10,550 --> 01:09:07,679 can 1763 01:09:12,229 --> 01:09:10,560 um get that up uh because it really is a 1764 01:09:14,709 --> 01:09:12,239 a fascinating i mean you look at the 1765 01:09:15,669 --> 01:09:14,719 picture you really think it has to be 1766 01:09:17,990 --> 01:09:15,679 something 1767 01:09:20,789 --> 01:09:18,000 yeah it ends up it's not 1768 01:09:24,390 --> 01:09:20,799 um but also i remember speaking to 1769 01:09:26,470 --> 01:09:24,400 leslie kane about this and she said that 1770 01:09:28,870 --> 01:09:26,480 um there was 1771 01:09:31,430 --> 01:09:28,880 uh i believe 1772 01:09:33,269 --> 01:09:31,440 the person that took the photo 1773 01:09:35,910 --> 01:09:33,279 appeared to have gotten 1774 01:09:37,189 --> 01:09:35,920 um a payoff of some kind which made it 1775 01:09:39,590 --> 01:09:37,199 even more 1776 01:09:41,189 --> 01:09:39,600 unusual do you know anything 1777 01:09:42,789 --> 01:09:41,199 i don't know about a payoff but anytime 1778 01:09:44,870 --> 01:09:42,799 you enter money into the equation on 1779 01:09:47,669 --> 01:09:44,880 these situations it it certainly calls 1780 01:09:49,349 --> 01:09:47,679 into question what's the motivation 1781 01:09:50,950 --> 01:09:49,359 yeah exactly 1782 01:09:52,390 --> 01:09:50,960 uh well like everything i'm trying to 1783 01:09:54,950 --> 01:09:52,400 pull up on that photo is not coming 1784 01:09:57,669 --> 01:09:54,960 through but it really is uh uh 1785 01:10:00,790 --> 01:09:57,679 it's it's quite a convincing photo when 1786 01:10:03,350 --> 01:10:00,800 you first look at it for sure 1787 01:10:05,910 --> 01:10:03,360 and let's see i have another question 1788 01:10:08,149 --> 01:10:05,920 that uh mary grace always has some great 1789 01:10:10,709 --> 01:10:08,159 questions and i'm going to pull that up 1790 01:10:13,590 --> 01:10:10,719 here as soon as i get to it here 1791 01:10:16,229 --> 01:10:13,600 and that is are there any documents from 1792 01:10:19,990 --> 01:10:16,239 any governments in the world that claim 1793 01:10:24,630 --> 01:10:22,229 uh are you aware of any not official 1794 01:10:26,310 --> 01:10:24,640 documents that i know of there are fakes 1795 01:10:30,070 --> 01:10:26,320 running around that look like government 1796 01:10:31,430 --> 01:10:30,080 documents that surely say that yeah but 1797 01:10:34,310 --> 01:10:31,440 i've always 1798 01:10:37,110 --> 01:10:34,320 asked with government paperwork and all 1799 01:10:39,430 --> 01:10:37,120 one thing i insisted on if is if they 1800 01:10:41,350 --> 01:10:39,440 were released 1801 01:10:44,390 --> 01:10:41,360 by any government they should be 1802 01:10:46,950 --> 01:10:44,400 accompanied by a paper trail 1803 01:10:47,910 --> 01:10:46,960 provenance cover letters anything like 1804 01:10:54,229 --> 01:10:47,920 that 1805 01:10:56,149 --> 01:10:54,239 right i i can't trust them right i don't 1806 01:10:58,550 --> 01:10:56,159 know where they're coming from they came 1807 01:11:01,590 --> 01:10:58,560 from anonymous sources sometimes or they 1808 01:11:03,910 --> 01:11:01,600 went through third fourth fifth parties 1809 01:11:05,510 --> 01:11:03,920 and you can't really uh determine the 1810 01:11:08,390 --> 01:11:05,520 origin of these things right and that 1811 01:11:10,790 --> 01:11:08,400 automatically makes documents suspicious 1812 01:11:12,870 --> 01:11:10,800 well i'm glad you brought that up 1813 01:11:14,709 --> 01:11:12,880 because i would like to talk about what 1814 01:11:16,470 --> 01:11:14,719 was floating around i don't know maybe 1815 01:11:18,790 --> 01:11:16,480 two years ago and there was so much 1816 01:11:20,709 --> 01:11:18,800 hubbub about it and i didn't think it 1817 01:11:23,189 --> 01:11:20,719 had any meat to it at all when i looked 1818 01:11:25,430 --> 01:11:23,199 into it i could be wrong so i try to be 1819 01:11:29,030 --> 01:11:25,440 open-minded but the wilson document are 1820 01:11:31,830 --> 01:11:29,040 you from anyone familiar with that yes 1821 01:11:35,590 --> 01:11:31,840 and and your opinion 1822 01:11:37,189 --> 01:11:35,600 well wilson said that he wasn't there 1823 01:11:39,189 --> 01:11:37,199 he denied it 1824 01:11:41,910 --> 01:11:39,199 so 1825 01:11:44,310 --> 01:11:41,920 it's it's you know 1826 01:11:46,390 --> 01:11:44,320 one piece of evidence after another you 1827 01:11:47,750 --> 01:11:46,400 know he said she said 1828 01:11:50,630 --> 01:11:47,760 um 1829 01:11:53,510 --> 01:11:50,640 now the government is known to 1830 01:11:56,870 --> 01:11:53,520 lie about ufos everywhere 1831 01:11:59,669 --> 01:11:56,880 so but i i don't trust 1832 01:12:02,310 --> 01:11:59,679 the uh supposed 1833 01:12:04,470 --> 01:12:02,320 outcome of that what you know 1834 01:12:06,870 --> 01:12:04,480 what supposedly was discussed and things 1835 01:12:09,669 --> 01:12:06,880 like that yeah i i would ask where did 1836 01:12:10,470 --> 01:12:09,679 it come from yeah 1837 01:12:11,830 --> 01:12:10,480 right 1838 01:12:14,709 --> 01:12:11,840 and 1839 01:12:17,750 --> 01:12:14,719 uh well that act supposedly that 1840 01:12:21,030 --> 01:12:17,760 originated in a file 1841 01:12:23,669 --> 01:12:21,040 that belonged to um the astronaut who am 1842 01:12:25,430 --> 01:12:23,679 i thinking of uh 1843 01:12:27,189 --> 01:12:25,440 exactly yes 1844 01:12:30,470 --> 01:12:27,199 and i don't know if that's uh and then 1845 01:12:32,390 --> 01:12:30,480 supposedly it was taken to australia 1846 01:12:36,550 --> 01:12:32,400 and uh 1847 01:12:38,470 --> 01:12:36,560

01:12:48,310 --> 01:12:41,920 yeah 1851 01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:51,350 uh 1852 01:12:57,189 --> 01:12:54,950 i i did a conference with edgar mitchell 1853 01:12:57,990 --> 01:12:57,199 and uh 1854 01:13:00,470 --> 01:12:58,000 uh 1855 01:13:04,870 --> 01:13:00,480 furmage 1856 01:13:09,590 --> 01:13:08,070 edgar richelle is a is an american hero 1857 01:13:11,510 --> 01:13:09,600 and he's uh 1858 01:13:14,709 --> 01:13:11,520 he's definitely uh 1859 01:13:18,790 --> 01:13:17,030 knows what he's talking about as far as 1860 01:13:20,790 --> 01:13:18,800 nasa goes but 1861 01:13:22,709 --> 01:13:20,800 i have a lot of trouble with things that 1862 01:13:24,630 --> 01:13:22,719 he says 1863 01:13:26,550 --> 01:13:24,640 um 1864 01:13:28,790 --> 01:13:26,560 and 1865 01:13:31,030 --> 01:13:28,800 it's it's kind of hard for me to believe 1866 01:13:34,229 --> 01:13:31,040 some of the things that he says 1867 01:13:36,870 --> 01:13:34,239 and he's always he always leaves himself 1868 01:13:41,669 --> 01:13:36,880 a loophole to joe bottom 1869 01:13:46,870 --> 01:13:44,390 you might say it it's interesting but 1870 01:13:48,709 --> 01:13:46,880 you know not uh 1871 01:13:51,030 --> 01:13:48,719 we don't have the complete story that 1872 01:13:52,870 --> 01:13:51,040 that's what i'd say there yeah martin i 1873 01:13:55,030 --> 01:13:52,880 would just say that the wilson documents 1874 01:13:57,430 --> 01:13:55,040 no different than the purported mj12 1875 01:14:00,390 --> 01:13:57,440 documents and others that have surfaced 1876 01:14:02,470 --> 01:14:00,400 uh if you believe that they're real it's 1877 01:14:04,790 --> 01:14:02,480 incumbent upon you to prove that they're 1878 01:14:07,110 --> 01:14:04,800 valid not on us to prove that they're 1879 01:14:09,750 --> 01:14:07,120 not valid right 1880 01:14:12,229 --> 01:14:09,760 yes so you know and i know with your 1881 01:14:15,830 --> 01:14:12,239 background and what you do provenance is 1882 01:14:17,510 --> 01:14:15,840 everything yes and so you know 1883 01:14:19,110 --> 01:14:17,520 barry greenwood wrote one of the best 1884 01:14:20,550 --> 01:14:19,120 books on the subject i just told him 1885 01:14:22,390 --> 01:14:20,560 yesterday i said you know yours is one 1886 01:14:23,990 --> 01:14:22,400 of my top 10 books i i'm not just 1887 01:14:26,070 --> 01:14:24,000 blowing sunshine up your backside when i 1888 01:14:27,669 --> 01:14:26,080 say that i have a newspaper article from 1889 01:14:29,990 --> 01:14:27,679 several years ago where i listed my top 1890 01:14:31,990 --> 01:14:30,000 10 books and his is listed on there but 1891 01:14:33,990 --> 01:14:32,000 the reason i said that is there was a 1892 01:14:36,470 --> 01:14:34,000 lot of spurious material being printed 1893 01:14:37,990 --> 01:14:36,480 at that time oh yeah yeah and the fact 1894 01:14:40,229 --> 01:14:38,000 of the matter is 1895 01:14:42,390 --> 01:14:40,239 and i know knowing barry and having seen 1896 01:14:44,870 --> 01:14:42,400 the documents that he's worked on he 1897 01:14:47,510 --> 01:14:44,880 went to the archives he went and filed 1898 01:14:49,750 --> 01:14:47,520 foia requests he can demonstrate beyond 1899 01:14:51,430 --> 01:14:49,760 a reasonable doubt these documents are 1900 01:14:53,910 --> 01:14:51,440 legitimate and this is where they came 1901 01:14:55,910 --> 01:14:53,920 from and if you don't believe me file a 1902 01:14:57,590 --> 01:14:55,920 foia request on these same documents and 1903 01:15:00,470 --> 01:14:57,600 you'll get what i got 1904 01:15:02,229 --> 01:15:00,480 here's the thing at the time uh we were 1905 01:15:05,189 --> 01:15:02,239 working on the documents 1906 01:15:06,630 --> 01:15:05,199 i i wanted to obtain credible material i 1907 01:15:08,550 --> 01:15:06,640 wanted to get them directly from the 1908 01:15:10,950 --> 01:15:08,560 agencies and all not through anonymous 1909 01:15:12,630 --> 01:15:10,960 sources that you couldn't trust 1910 01:15:15,910 --> 01:15:12,640 to make a case that there was something 1911 01:15:17,750 --> 01:15:15,920 to the ufo phenomenon and 1912 01:15:19,270 --> 01:15:17,760 we were getting all those documents and 1913 01:15:21,350 --> 01:15:19,280 that doesn't mean that because 1914 01:15:23,510 --> 01:15:21,360 something's in the government file that 1915 01:15:25,669 --> 01:15:23,520 the information in it is absolutely 1916 01:15:27,030 --> 01:15:25,679 genuine they had information about hope 1917 01:15:28,870 --> 01:15:27,040 stories 1918 01:15:31,430 --> 01:15:28,880 in government records they certainly are 1919 01:15:33,830 --> 01:15:31,440 not real but it at least you have the 1920 01:15:35,910 --> 01:15:33,840 chance to assess the information once 1921 01:15:37,510 --> 01:15:35,920 it's released officially 1922 01:15:39,590 --> 01:15:37,520 to determine where they were getting 1923 01:15:41,430 --> 01:15:39,600 their information from and how credible 1924 01:15:45,350 --> 01:15:41,440 it was so they were trying to build a 1925 01:15:47,270 --> 01:15:45,360 case that that the documents 1926 01:15:49,350 --> 01:15:47,280 proved that it was an unexplained 1927 01:15:51,590 --> 01:15:49,360 phenomenon and then suddenly 1928 01:15:54,550 --> 01:15:51,600 after that became popular that that 1929 01:15:56,950 --> 01:15:54,560 foyers were discussed in the press and 1930 01:15:59,350 --> 01:15:56,960 and the uh the over flights and other 1931 01:16:01,590 --> 01:15:59,360 military type incidents were getting 1932 01:16:03,430 --> 01:16:01,600 into the newspapers 1933 01:16:04,630 --> 01:16:03,440 people started 1934 01:16:08,390 --> 01:16:04,640 issuing 1935 01:16:10,310 --> 01:16:08,400 hoaxes fake documents from wherever 1936 01:16:11,910 --> 01:16:10,320 the distinguishing feature of them was 1937 01:16:13,270 --> 01:16:11,920 they weren't coming from official 1938 01:16:14,709 --> 01:16:13,280 sources 1939 01:16:17,990 --> 01:16:14,719 and uh 1940 01:16:20,229 --> 01:16:18,000 it was tainting the the water in this 1941 01:16:21,750 --> 01:16:20,239 whole controversy i was trying to build 1942 01:16:23,030 --> 01:16:21,760 a case and these people are trying to 1943 01:16:25,990 --> 01:16:23,040 shoot it down 1944 01:16:28,229 --> 01:16:26,000 uh for whatever self-promoting purpose 1945 01:16:29,030 --> 01:16:28,239 they had we had to spend a great deal of 1946 01:16:31,189 --> 01:16:29,040 time 1947 01:16:32,870 --> 01:16:31,199 examining these documents and pulling 1948 01:16:34,550 --> 01:16:32,880 them apart to see 1949 01:16:36,470 --> 01:16:34,560 what they were all about 1950 01:16:38,229 --> 01:16:36,480 and it was very disappointing to have to 1951 01:16:41,910 --> 01:16:38,239 do that because i wanted to spend that 1952 01:16:43,990 --> 01:16:41,920 time on legitimate serious research i 1953 01:16:46,229 --> 01:16:44,000 was forced to examine these things 1954 01:16:49,110 --> 01:16:46,239 because they were being given equal or 1955 01:16:51,110 --> 01:16:49,120 maybe more than equal treatment uh 1956 01:16:52,310 --> 01:16:51,120 by the outside world and i we have to 1957 01:16:54,550 --> 01:16:52,320 explain 1958 01:16:56,470 --> 01:16:54,560 this isn't what you think it is 1959 01:16:57,590 --> 01:16:56,480 right and martin if i could just add to 1960 01:16:58,950 --> 01:16:57,600 that brief 1961 01:17:02,070 --> 01:16:58,960 we're talking in the context of 1962 01:17:03,669 --> 01:17:02,080 documents but i would you know ask your 1963 01:17:05,510 --> 01:17:03,679 audience when you're going to ufo 1964 01:17:08,470 --> 01:17:05,520 conferences when you're listening to 1965 01:17:10,390 --> 01:17:08,480 other podcasts with different people on 1966 01:17:12,630 --> 01:17:10,400 you should be asking the same question 1967 01:17:14,149 --> 01:17:12,640 not only of documents and and their 1968 01:17:15,910 --> 01:17:14,159 origins 1969 01:17:18,229 --> 01:17:15,920 some of the ridiculous and spurious 1970 01:17:20,550 --> 01:17:18,239 claims made by pseudo researchers in the 1971 01:17:22,630 --> 01:17:20,560 field that are spouting the most 1972 01:17:24,310 --> 01:17:22,640 ridiculous minutia 1973 01:17:26,229 --> 01:17:24,320 you should be asking 1974 01:17:28,390 --> 01:17:26,239 where are you getting this information 1975 01:17:30,630 --> 01:17:28,400 you know show me where you got this 1976 01:17:32,550 --> 01:17:30,640 information because too often in this 1977 01:17:33,669 --> 01:17:32,560 field we have again i call them pseudo 1978 01:17:35,990 --> 01:17:33,679 researchers 1979 01:17:38,550 --> 01:17:36,000 that are all about sensationalism and 1980 01:17:42,229 --> 01:17:38,560 they're constantly quoting unnamed 1981 01:17:44,229 --> 01:17:42,239 sources i can't my source translated you 1982 01:17:46,470 --> 01:17:44,239 can't verify what i'm telling you i mean 1983 01:17:48,149 --> 01:17:46,480 that's how i interpret it and admittedly 1984 01:17:50,070 --> 01:17:48,159 there are sensitive people in sensitive 1985 01:17:51,669 --> 01:17:50,080 positions that have to be careful but 1986 01:17:54,229 --> 01:17:51,679 when you have researchers that are 1987 01:17:56,630 --> 01:17:54,239 consistently where it's the rule not the 1988 01:17:58,630 --> 01:17:56,640 exception saying well i got this from an 1989 01:18:00,870 --> 01:17:58,640 unnamed source 1990 01:18:02,390 --> 01:18:00,880 i have to question that and for those 1991 01:18:03,830 --> 01:18:02,400 that have attended my lectures at 1992 01:18:05,270 --> 01:18:03,840 conferences the one thing that i get 1993 01:18:07,350 --> 01:18:05,280 complimented on more than anything 1994 01:18:09,030 --> 01:18:07,360 martin and it's gratifying they say you 1995 01:18:10,149 --> 01:18:09,040 know i always love your presentations 1996 01:18:13,189 --> 01:18:10,159 because at the bottom of every 1997 01:18:14,390 --> 01:18:13,199 powerpoint slide you have your source 1998 01:18:17,750 --> 01:18:14,400 hmm 1999 01:18:19,910 --> 01:18:17,760 yes and let me ask you this how 2000 01:18:21,590 --> 01:18:19,920 much of what you were talking about 2001 01:18:24,229 --> 01:18:21,600 barry earlier 2002 01:18:26,669 --> 01:18:24,239 um how much of this would you think or 2003 01:18:28,229 --> 01:18:26,679 is any of it could possibly be 2004 01:18:30,870 --> 01:18:28,239 disinformation 2005 01:18:32,470 --> 01:18:30,880 and i know when you're mixing things in 2006 01:18:34,550 --> 01:18:32,480 you a lot of times you know the 2007 01:18:35,669 --> 01:18:34,560 disinformation works really great when 2008 01:18:37,590 --> 01:18:35,679 there's a little 2009 01:18:40,550 --> 01:18:37,600 little sliver of truth 2010 01:18:43,590 --> 01:18:40,560 uh mixed in with the batch well you know 2011 01:18:47,990 --> 01:18:43,600 mj 12 was a slight example of that 2012 01:18:53,590 --> 01:18:50,310 in that around 1980 there was an 2013 01:18:56,310 --> 01:18:53,600 incident reported in new mexico uh 2014 01:18:59,590 --> 01:18:56,320 manzano weapon storage area documents 2015 01:19:01,669 --> 01:18:59,600 were explaining how ufos were seen and 2016 01:19:04,709 --> 01:19:01,679 not very far from here right it's very 2017 01:19:07,270 --> 01:19:04,719 close to where i am 2018 01:19:09,350 --> 01:19:07,280 but but these these papers are written 2019 01:19:11,830 --> 01:19:09,360 up and there was a uh 2020 01:19:13,669 --> 01:19:11,840 a special agent who was looking into 2021 01:19:16,630 --> 01:19:13,679 them his name figured prominently in 2022 01:19:17,910 --> 01:19:16,640 these papers richard dodie who is 2023 01:19:20,310 --> 01:19:17,920 familiar now 2024 01:19:22,149 --> 01:19:20,320 uh but he um 2025 01:19:23,990 --> 01:19:22,159 he uh he 2026 01:19:25,110 --> 01:19:24,000 looked into these reports while he was 2027 01:19:27,830 --> 01:19:25,120 still uh 2028 01:19:31,669 --> 01:19:27,840 with osi 2029 01:19:33,669 --> 01:19:31,679 and uh one day i was watching television 2030 01:19:36,550 --> 01:19:33,679 and there was a documentary on i think 2031 01:19:38,950 --> 01:19:36,560 it was a san francisco program 2032 01:19:40,790 --> 01:19:38,960 called the ufo experience and and 2033 01:19:43,990 --> 01:19:40,800 towards the end of it uh 2034 01:19:45,750 --> 01:19:44,000 they they showed documents which were 2035 01:19:47,590 --> 01:19:45,760 about this very same 2036 01:19:49,830 --> 01:19:47,600 series of events 2037 01:19:52,229 --> 01:19:49,840 uh 2038 01:19:55,270 --> 01:19:52,239 they were flash for an unusual amount of 2039 01:19:57,110 --> 01:19:55,280 time i was videotaping the program and i 2040 01:19:59,590 --> 01:19:57,120 was able to freeze frame it and take 2041 01:20:00,950 --> 01:19:59,600 down some of the information 2042 01:20:03,350 --> 01:20:00,960 and uh 2043 01:20:06,149 --> 01:20:03,360 i used that information to file a foia 2044 01:20:07,510 --> 01:20:06,159 request on the documents they look 2045 01:20:09,350 --> 01:20:07,520 genuine they look like government 2046 01:20:11,430 --> 01:20:09,360 documents and all and 2047 01:20:14,870 --> 01:20:11,440 i thought maybe we could get more than 2048 01:20:16,950 --> 01:20:14,880 what were shown so a short time later i 2049 01:20:18,629 --> 01:20:16,960 did receive a four-year release from the 2050 01:20:20,870 --> 01:20:18,639 air force 2051 01:20:22,709 --> 01:20:20,880 with containing these documents but the 2052 01:20:24,709 --> 01:20:22,719 odd thing was that they looked a little 2053 01:20:27,669 --> 01:20:24,719 different they weren't the exact same 2054 01:20:29,430 --> 01:20:27,679 documents the markings were 2055 01:20:30,950 --> 01:20:29,440 different from the ones on the 2056 01:20:34,149 --> 01:20:30,960 television and all 2057 01:20:36,550 --> 01:20:34,159 and as time went along uh it 2058 01:20:38,390 --> 01:20:36,560 became evident that this this 2059 01:20:39,270 --> 01:20:38,400 dodie fellow 2060 01:20:40,870 --> 01:20:39,280 was 2061 01:20:42,950 --> 01:20:40,880 involved with the subject far more 2062 01:20:45,910 --> 01:20:42,960 deeply than anyone realized he wasn't 2063 01:20:46,790 --> 01:20:45,920 just an afosi investigator her 2064 01:20:49,590 --> 01:20:46,800 but 2065 01:20:51,350 --> 01:20:49,600 he was involved in other stories too it 2066 01:20:53,830 --> 01:20:51,360 seemed to be traceable all the way back 2067 01:20:56,310 --> 01:20:53,840 to a hoax from elgeworth air force base 2068 01:20:57,750 --> 01:20:56,320 in the late 70s 2069 01:21:00,870 --> 01:20:57,760 but 2070 01:21:02,629 --> 01:21:00,880 apparently what he was doing was he was 2071 01:21:04,390 --> 01:21:02,639 creating 2072 01:21:06,629 --> 01:21:04,400 uh 2073 01:21:09,430 --> 01:21:06,639 information about ufo sightings and 2074 01:21:12,229 --> 01:21:09,440 mixing it in with with fiction 2075 01:21:14,790 --> 01:21:12,239 and and getting the documents filed 2076 01:21:15,830 --> 01:21:14,800 officially with an osi 2077 01:21:17,750 --> 01:21:15,840 really 2078 01:21:19,590 --> 01:21:17,760 and uh 2079 01:21:21,830 --> 01:21:19,600 it was meant to be 2080 01:21:23,910 --> 01:21:21,840 shown somewhere so that someone could 2081 01:21:27,270 --> 01:21:23,920 file a request and get an official 2082 01:21:29,350 --> 01:21:27,280 release of these planted documents 2083 01:21:32,070 --> 01:21:29,360 and that's what happened in this case uh 2084 01:21:34,390 --> 01:21:32,080 i i was the unwitting dupe i think they 2085 01:21:36,470 --> 01:21:34,400 called me one time that they wanted 2086 01:21:38,629 --> 01:21:36,480 someone to file a toy request and there 2087 01:21:40,629 --> 01:21:38,639 i was doing it for them 2088 01:21:43,030 --> 01:21:40,639 i had no idea what was going on 2089 01:21:44,790 --> 01:21:43,040 obviously but that's what happened they 2090 01:21:47,110 --> 01:21:44,800 called them the useful idiot the useful 2091 01:21:49,030 --> 01:21:47,120 idiot yeah right right 2092 01:21:51,669 --> 01:21:49,040 we can all be that 2093 01:21:53,110 --> 01:21:51,679 so uh ellsworth air force base robert 2094 01:21:56,470 --> 01:21:53,120 todd 2095 01:21:57,830 --> 01:21:56,480 wrote to every unit on ellsworth air 2096 01:22:00,310 --> 01:21:57,840 force base 2097 01:22:01,910 --> 01:22:00,320 every unit and 2098 01:22:04,390 --> 01:22:01,920 their their 2099 01:22:13,910 --> 01:22:06,870 the 2100 01:22:15,350 --> 01:22:13,920 top 2101 01:22:17,990 --> 01:22:15,360 uh 2102 01:22:21,910 --> 01:22:19,830 supervisors of 2103 01:22:26,390 --> 01:22:21,920 these types of units 2104 01:22:31,990 --> 01:22:29,669 everybody at ellsworth air force base 2105 01:22:34,390 --> 01:22:32,000 said this never happened 2106 01:22:37,669 --> 01:22:34,400 including 2107 01:22:40,870 --> 01:22:37,679 uh and then the pentagon 2108 01:22:41,669 --> 01:22:40,880 information came in every supervisor of 2109 01:22:43,669 --> 01:22:41,679 this 2110 01:22:45,750 --> 01:22:43,679 you know like the missile supervisor 2111 01:22:48,149 --> 01:22:45,760 maintenance supervisors 2112 01:22:49,110 --> 01:22:48,159 the mp supervisors 2113 01:22:51,750 --> 01:22:49,120 and 2114 01:22:53,030 --> 01:22:51,760 afosi 2115 01:22:56,070 --> 01:22:53,040 of 2116 01:22:58,870 --> 01:22:56,080 special investigations all denied that 2117 01:23:00,950 --> 01:22:58,880 those documents were real 2118 01:23:02,310 --> 01:23:00,960 so it was pretty well 2119 01:23:04,830 --> 01:23:02,320 covered 2120 01:23:07,270 --> 01:23:04,840 as to whether these documents have any 2121 01:23:10,870 --> 01:23:07,280 uh um 2122 01:23:13,990 --> 01:23:12,229 provenance 2123 01:23:15,910 --> 01:23:14,000 one of the things uh 2124 01:23:17,110 --> 01:23:15,920 i think i think todd got a letter that 2125 01:23:18,870 --> 01:23:17,120 said uh 2126 01:23:21,030 --> 01:23:18,880 that we're investigating where they 2127 01:23:23,590 --> 01:23:21,040 possibly came from 2128 01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:26,550 yeah it was 2129 01:23:26,560 --> 01:23:30,149 so it's 2130 01:23:36,310 --> 01:23:33,430 you know there's people in uh 2131 01:23:38,629 --> 01:23:36,320 inside the military that are 2132 01:23:39,990 --> 01:23:38,639 misbehaved too 2133 01:23:42,790 --> 01:23:40,000 yeah sure 2134 01:23:44,229 --> 01:23:42,800 yeah i'm sure you can i'm sure you can 2135 01:23:47,510 --> 01:23:44,239 learn a lot 2136 01:23:48,550 --> 01:23:47,520 from the the disinformation i mean just 2137 01:23:51,510 --> 01:23:48,560 kind of 2138 01:23:53,750 --> 01:23:51,520 when i say learn a lot maybe you can 2139 01:23:55,990 --> 01:23:53,760 try to figure out what they're trying to 2140 01:23:59,270 --> 01:23:56,000 do and what what is the outcome they're 2141 01:24:03,830 --> 01:24:01,430 well yeah there's another thing about 2142 01:24:05,910 --> 01:24:03,840 dodie and being involved in that story 2143 01:24:08,310 --> 01:24:05,920 too 2144 01:24:11,590 --> 01:24:08,320 the motivation can be 2145 01:24:15,350 --> 01:24:11,600 different things behind it i i 2146 01:24:18,390 --> 01:24:15,360 i wrote a paper in 2007 with brad sparks 2147 01:24:20,390 --> 01:24:18,400 and we discussed that whole 2148 01:24:23,510 --> 01:24:20,400 business with the 2149 01:24:26,550 --> 01:24:23,520 dodie and and paul benowitz and 2150 01:24:30,149 --> 01:24:26,560 and later mj-12 developments and we'd 2151 01:24:32,070 --> 01:24:30,159 come to different conclusions about it 2152 01:24:34,149 --> 01:24:32,080 he thought it wasn't 2153 01:24:36,629 --> 01:24:34,159 coming down from 2154 01:24:39,110 --> 01:24:36,639 people in afosi and perhaps higher than 2155 01:24:42,310 --> 01:24:39,120 that as a disinformation campaign 2156 01:24:44,870 --> 01:24:42,320 i heard evidence uh repeatedly 2157 01:24:47,750 --> 01:24:44,880 from participants in the story not not 2158 01:24:49,910 --> 01:24:47,760 necessarily military people but uh 2159 01:24:52,070 --> 01:24:49,920 that that there was a money motivation 2160 01:24:54,790 --> 01:24:52,080 behind it what a lot of people don't 2161 01:24:57,510 --> 01:24:54,800 know is that mj 12 2162 01:25:00,070 --> 01:24:57,520 had its very very early origins in a 2163 01:25:03,110 --> 01:25:00,080 fiction novel that was written by some 2164 01:25:05,270 --> 01:25:03,120 of the participants uh dodie bill moore 2165 01:25:07,189 --> 01:25:05,280 and robert pratt 2166 01:25:09,430 --> 01:25:07,199 who was a reporter for the national 2167 01:25:11,110 --> 01:25:09,440 enquirer and he was he didn't 2168 01:25:13,430 --> 01:25:11,120 necessarily believe the story he was 2169 01:25:16,149 --> 01:25:13,440 just writing it up as fiction 2170 01:25:19,110 --> 01:25:16,159 and when 2171 01:25:21,189 --> 01:25:19,120 when word leaked out about mj 12 and all 2172 01:25:23,590 --> 01:25:21,199 he uh he was pretty adamant that there 2173 01:25:25,990 --> 01:25:23,600 was nothing to it but 2174 01:25:27,669 --> 01:25:26,000 there was this manuscript which was the 2175 01:25:29,350 --> 01:25:27,679 property of three different people and 2176 01:25:31,990 --> 01:25:29,360 they couldn't circulate 2177 01:25:34,310 --> 01:25:32,000 so it was hard to prove anything but 2178 01:25:36,310 --> 01:25:34,320 he was a writer one of the writers of it 2179 01:25:37,990 --> 01:25:36,320 and uh he asserted that 2180 01:25:40,390 --> 01:25:38,000 it was nonsense 2181 01:25:42,709 --> 01:25:40,400 so uh 2182 01:25:44,709 --> 01:25:42,719 to me it was money that was behind that 2183 01:25:46,470 --> 01:25:44,719 they wanted to cash in on a story 2184 01:25:49,110 --> 01:25:46,480 started as fiction but they turned it 2185 01:25:50,550 --> 01:25:49,120 into an alleged fact and they went 2186 01:25:52,390 --> 01:25:50,560 pretty far with it they were on 2187 01:25:55,669 --> 01:25:52,400 television and 2188 01:25:57,430 --> 01:25:55,679 you remember the ufo cover-up live show 2189 01:25:59,350 --> 01:25:57,440 that was pretty easy 2190 01:26:00,790 --> 01:25:59,360 in the strawberry ice cream and tibetan 2191 01:26:05,390 --> 01:26:00,800 music and 2192 01:26:09,350 --> 01:26:07,030 disinformation 2193 01:26:11,990 -->

connection 2245 01:28:23,910 --> 01:28:21,679 the water and oceans association 2246 01:28:25,990 --> 01:28:23,920 in parentheses may be explaining the us 2247 01:28:29,110 --> 01:28:26,000 navy

patterns wow 2251 01:28:37,590 --> 01:28:35,920 well 2252 01:28:39,830 --> 01:28:37,600 from my point of view the nuclear 2253 01:28:40,870 --> 01:28:39,840 weapons connection i 2254 01:28:44,390 --> 01:28:40,880 again 2255 01:28:46,790 --> 01:28:44,400 for the umpteenth time i thought the 75 2256 01:28:49,830 --> 01:28:46,800 overflights were pretty dramatic as far 2257 01:28:52,550 --> 01:28:49,840 as showing interest in nuclear and 2258 01:28:56,870 --> 01:28:52,560 military facilities and testing national 2259 01:28:59,270 --> 01:28:56,880 security uh that that to me was 2260 01:29:01,750 --> 01:28:59,280 still an amazing series of 2261 01:29:04,390 --> 01:29:01,760 events i don't know what was behind it 2262 01:29:06,629 --> 01:29:04,400 all maybe not everything was 2263 01:29:08,390 --> 01:29:06,639 exotic but certainly some parts of it 2264 01:29:10,790 --> 01:29:08,400 were 2265 01:29:12,870 --> 01:29:10,800 we had a guest last week 2266 01:29:16,550 --> 01:29:12,880 that had his sighting when he was in the 2267 01:29:18,790 --> 01:29:16,560 army service and back in 1992 he was 2268 01:29:21,750 --> 01:29:18,800 stationed up in canada for military 2269 01:29:23,430 --> 01:29:21,760 training uh when he had an amazing ufo 2270 01:29:26,229 --> 01:29:23,440 encounter 2271 01:29:27,189 --> 01:29:26,239 since he went out there and talked about 2272 01:29:30,870 --> 01:29:27,199 it he 2273 01:29:31,669 --> 01:29:30,880 has been contacted by someone who's 2274 01:29:34,070 --> 01:29:31,679 um 2275 01:29:35,510 --> 01:29:34,080 an aunt says that her husband and uncle 2276 01:29:37,910 --> 01:29:35,520 long retired 2277 01:29:39,669 --> 01:29:37,920 of back in the 19 i believe he said the 2278 01:29:44,229 --> 01:29:39,679 1970s 2279 01:29:46,470 --> 01:29:44,239 had a ufo nuclear warhead uh situation 2280 01:29:48,870 --> 01:29:46,480 another a person i'm trying trying to 2281 01:29:50,629 --> 01:29:48,880 follow up with him i'd love to find out 2282 01:29:53,510 --> 01:29:50,639 uh because he's never he said he would 2283 01:29:55,430 --> 01:29:53,520 never speak about it perhaps he will 2284 01:29:57,910 --> 01:29:55,440 now feel a little more comfortable these 2285 01:29:59,990 --> 01:29:57,920 days than he would have said before the 2286 01:30:02,790 --> 01:30:00,000 last few years yeah 2287 01:30:05,590 --> 01:30:02,800 but that would be interesting 2288 01:30:08,790 --> 01:30:05,600 the nuclear business it's very hard to 2289 01:30:10,790 --> 01:30:08,800 elicit information about it in relation 2290 01:30:12,550 --> 01:30:10,800 to ufo reports because they're pretty 2291 01:30:15,990 --> 01:30:12,560 much exempt 2292 01:30:18,070 --> 01:30:16,000 uh from foia scrutiny that's obviously a 2293 01:30:20,550 --> 01:30:18,080 very sensitive topic and 2294 01:30:21,830 --> 01:30:20,560 you can't really invest most of that 2295 01:30:23,110 --> 01:30:21,840 data 2296 01:30:24,870 --> 01:30:23,120 to very 2297 01:30:26,950 --> 01:30:24,880 to barry's point though martin in 2298 01:30:29,030 --> 01:30:26,960 reference to the question uh beyond 2299 01:30:31,350 --> 01:30:29,040 nuclear weapons it's interesting to see 2300 01:30:34,550 --> 01:30:31,360 the correlation even here in new mexico 2301 01:30:36,870 --> 01:30:34,560 specifically with ufo sightings during 2302 01:30:38,390 --> 01:30:36,880 the development of the atomic bomb uh 2303 01:30:41,430 --> 01:30:38,400 during the development of the hydrogen 2304 01:30:43,590 --> 01:30:41,440 bomb at los alamos i have original front 2305 01:30:46,149 --> 01:30:43,600 page newspaper headlines citing 2306 01:30:49,189 --> 01:30:46,159 scientists and security personnel that 2307 01:30:51,430 --> 01:30:49,199 were witnessing ufos over los alamos and 2308 01:30:54,070 --> 01:30:51,440 so beyond the documents that we may not 2309 01:30:56,229 --> 01:30:54,080 have access to as very alluded to even 2310 01:30:57,910 --> 01:30:56,239 in the newspapers from that time period 2311 01:30:59,270 --> 01:30:57,920 a lot of that information leaked out to 2312 01:31:01,750 --> 01:30:59,280 the press 2313 01:31:05,110 --> 01:31:01,760 and so the work of barry and the work of 2314 01:31:07,590 --> 01:31:05,120 robert hastings has really i think shown 2315 01:31:09,990 --> 01:31:07,600 that strong correlation between nuclear 2316 01:31:12,950 --> 01:31:10,000 weapons nuclear storage nuclear 2317 01:31:15,110 --> 01:31:12,960 development and ufos 2318 01:31:18,470 --> 01:31:15,120 yeah there's absolutely 2319 01:31:20,709 --> 01:31:18,480 called ufos and nukes by robert hayes 2320 01:31:23,430 --> 01:31:20,719 so it's quite a read 2321 01:31:25,750 --> 01:31:23,440 yes and you look at it this way too 2322 01:31:28,070 --> 01:31:25,760 when you hear you know the uap task 2323 01:31:28,950 --> 01:31:28,080 force and basically you know i'm talking 2324 01:31:31,990 --> 01:31:28,960 about 2325 01:31:33,830 --> 01:31:32,000 um that there's they're only gonna study 2326 01:31:35,830 --> 01:31:33,840 cases 2004 2327 01:31:36,870 --> 01:31:35,840 forward that type of thing 2328 01:31:39,189 --> 01:31:36,880 um 2329 01:31:41,830 --> 01:31:39,199 and this is supposed to be about threats 2330 01:31:45,030 --> 01:31:41,840 wouldn't you think that nuclear warheads 2331 01:31:47,110 --> 01:31:45,040 or any type of nuclear situation and 2332 01:31:50,709 --> 01:31:47,120 interruptions disruptions of any kind 2333 01:31:52,950 --> 01:31:50,719 would be major national security and 2334 01:31:56,950 --> 01:31:52,960 they'd want to focus on finding the 2335 01:31:59,669 --> 01:31:58,390 from background let me tell you one 2336 01:32:01,830 --> 01:31:59,679 thing that's missing from the 2337 01:32:05,350 --> 01:32:01,840 preliminary report 2338 01:32:07,830 --> 01:32:05,360 they're talking about the agencies 2339 01:32:10,830 --> 01:32:07,840 and and the other associated documents 2340 01:32:13,590 --> 01:32:10,840 by but by uh assistant 2341 01:32:15,830 --> 01:32:13,600 secretary linton of the 2342 01:32:17,830 --> 01:32:15,840 dod 2343 01:32:20,229 --> 01:32:17,840 they're not addressed to the defense 2344 01:32:22,550 --> 01:32:20,239 nuclear agency 2345 01:32:24,629 --> 01:32:22,560 it says here's a list of things you know 2346 01:32:27,830 --> 01:32:24,639 here's a list of commands that should 2347 01:32:29,990 --> 01:32:27,840 respond to that 2348 01:32:32,310 --> 01:32:30,000 what about well it's not called the new 2349 01:32:35,110 --> 01:32:32,320 i forget what what it changed to it's 2350 01:32:36,550 --> 01:32:35,120 changed to something similar but the 2351 01:32:39,030 --> 01:32:36,560 uh 2352 01:32:40,950 --> 01:32:39,040 the defense nuclear agency is for 2353 01:32:42,870 --> 01:32:40,960 incidents and uh 2354 01:32:45,990 --> 01:32:42,880 one of the things that they do is 2355 01:32:48,709 --> 01:32:46,000 or they did was incidents and 2356 01:32:52,470 --> 01:32:48,719 accidents about 2357 01:32:55,910 --> 01:32:52,480 nuclear weapons why is that left off 2358 01:32:58,390 --> 01:32:55,920 it's left off in the preliminary report 2359 01:33:00,870 --> 01:32:58,400 i'm saying what what what 2360 01:33:02,629 --> 01:33:00,880 yes what what mark martin let me give 2361 01:33:04,310 --> 01:33:02,639 you an analogy this is this is how i 2362 01:33:05,990 --> 01:33:04,320 kind of view the situation with regard 2363 01:33:08,870 --> 01:33:06,000 to their their hesitancy to look at 2364 01:33:10,870 --> 01:33:08,880 anything prior to 2004 imagine you're a 2365 01:33:12,470 --> 01:33:10,880 new police investigator that's working 2366 01:33:14,070 --> 01:33:12,480 on a police department 2367 01:33:17,590 --> 01:33:14,080 and you've been informed that there's 2368 01:33:19,830 --> 01:33:17,600 been a number of burglaries in your city 2369 01:33:21,430 --> 01:33:19,840 in in various areas 2370 01:33:23,189 --> 01:33:21,440 and you come on board and you say you 2371 01:33:25,590 --> 01:33:23,199 know what i'm going to investigate these 2372 01:33:26,790 --> 01:33:25,600 burglaries moving forward but i'm not 2373 01:33:28,310 --> 01:33:26,800 going to look at the information that 2374 01:33:29,669 --> 01:33:28,320 you've gathered over the last year and a 2375 01:33:30,709 --> 01:33:29,679 half 2376 01:33:32,229 --> 01:33:30,719 even though if you look at the 2377 01:33:34,229 --> 01:33:32,239 information that's been gathered you 2378 01:33:36,149 --> 01:33:34,239 could plot and see well where are these 2379 01:33:37,669 --> 01:33:36,159 burglaries occurring which might give 2380 01:33:40,310 --> 01:33:37,679 you a better indication of where the 2381 01:33:42,629 --> 01:33:40,320 future burglaries are going to occur 2382 01:33:44,550 --> 01:33:42,639 it's it's just it's putting blinders on 2383 01:33:46,390 --> 01:33:44,560 it's it's i think institutional 2384 01:33:48,709 --> 01:33:46,400 ignorance not to take advantage of the 2385 01:33:52,390 --> 01:33:48,719 data that we have available 2386 01:33:53,669 --> 01:33:52,400 right i i agree absolutely um 2387 01:33:55,110 --> 01:33:53,679 now this was just a thought i had 2388 01:33:56,629 --> 01:33:55,120 earlier and again i'm going to be 2389 01:33:58,709 --> 01:33:56,639 posting up these questions and i do 2390 01:33:59,910 --> 01:33:58,719 appreciate in chat uh you're posting 2391 01:34:01,669 --> 01:33:59,920 those questions 2392 01:34:02,550 --> 01:34:01,679 but um 2393 01:34:09,910 --> 01:34:02,560 if 2394 01:34:12,629 --> 01:34:09,920 extraterrestrial hypothesis is not 2395 01:34:14,950 --> 01:34:12,639 would not be part of what we're seeing 2396 01:34:17,110 --> 01:34:14,960 um and this is just a speculation 2397 01:34:20,790 --> 01:34:17,120 question for anyone that wants to tackle 2398 01:34:21,830 --> 01:34:20,800 it um what would be the next possible 2399 01:34:24,229 --> 01:34:21,840 idea 2400 01:34:25,990 --> 01:34:24,239 or is it a bunch of different things 2401 01:34:27,910 --> 01:34:26,000 possibly 2402 01:34:30,149 --> 01:34:27,920 i don't speculate i'll leave it to the 2403 01:34:33,189 --> 01:34:30,159 others 2404 01:34:35,189 --> 01:34:33,199 okay good i i i'll just add and again i 2405 01:34:36,629 --> 01:34:35,199 i put this in my book several years ago 2406 01:34:38,709 --> 01:34:36,639 that if we're not dealing with the 2407 01:34:40,229 --> 01:34:38,719 extraterrestrial hypothesis 2408 01:34:42,550 --> 01:34:40,239 uh in other words something coming from 2409 01:34:43,669 --> 01:34:42,560 another star system and traveling vast 2410 01:34:46,070 --> 01:34:43,679 distances 2411 01:34:47,590 --> 01:34:46,080 and really all the all of i find 2412 01:34:50,229 --> 01:34:47,600 interesting martin all the skeptical 2413 01:34:52,390 --> 01:34:50,239 classic arguments are hinged on that 2414 01:34:53,669 --> 01:34:52,400 well what if we're dealing with string 2415 01:34:55,669 --> 01:34:53,679 theory and what if we're dealing with 2416 01:34:57,830 --> 01:34:55,679 multiverses multiple dimensions that 2417 01:35:00,550 --> 01:34:57,840 coexist all of those 2418 01:35:02,310 --> 01:35:00,560 conservative classic arguments fall by 2419 01:35:04,270 --> 01:35:02,320 the wayside because we're dealing with a 2420 01:35:07,030 --> 01:35:04,280 whole different dynamic uh the 2421 01:35:09,830 --> 01:35:07,040 interdimensional hypothesis might be 2422 01:35:11,990 --> 01:35:09,840 viable uh i know there's been some 2423 01:35:13,669 --> 01:35:12,000 mainstream scientists now looking saying 2424 01:35:14,709 --> 01:35:13,679 perhaps it's time travelers from the 2425 01:35:16,229 --> 01:35:14,719 future 2426 01:35:18,149 --> 01:35:16,239 uh you know at the end of the day 2427 01:35:20,310 --> 01:35:18,159 despite us being surrounded by all this 2428 01:35:22,070 --> 01:35:20,320 information we still don't have enough 2429 01:35:24,390 --> 01:35:22,080 information to really give us insights i 2430 01:35:25,189 --> 01:35:24,400 think definitively and to eat any one of 2431 01:35:27,830 --> 01:35:25,199 these 2432 01:35:30,149 --> 01:35:27,840 uh various theories but i think the 2433 01:35:31,910 --> 01:35:30,159 interdimensional one is is highly 2434 01:35:34,550 --> 01:35:31,920 intriguing 2435 01:35:36,310 --> 01:35:34,560 yes i do too um you know some people 2436 01:35:37,669 --> 01:35:36,320 claim that it might explain the reason 2437 01:35:44,390 --> 01:35:37,679 there's no 2438 01:35:46,310 --> 01:35:44,400 whatever with the travel involved and 2439 01:35:48,470 --> 01:35:46,320 how things you know appear and disappear 2440 01:35:50,629 --> 01:35:48,480 in different places things like that 2441 01:35:53,030 --> 01:35:50,639 it's it's all fascinating 2442 01:35:54,470 --> 01:35:53,040 and you know um it it would just be 2443 01:35:56,390 --> 01:35:54,480 interesting to know what type of 2444 01:35:58,629 --> 01:35:56,400 questions we should be thinking of when 2445 01:35:59,750 --> 01:35:58,639 we're looking into this right 2446 01:36:01,270 --> 01:35:59,760 yeah 2447 01:36:02,070 --> 01:36:01,280 all right i'm going to put up 2448 01:36:06,470 --> 01:36:02,080 this 2449 01:36:07,830 --> 01:36:06,480 the time as you know it 2450 01:36:10,390 --> 01:36:07,840 how do you 2451 01:36:13,030 --> 01:36:10,400 envision disclosure taking place if it 2452 01:36:14,629 --> 01:36:13,040 is if it ever is true anyone want to 2453 01:36:16,550 --> 01:36:14,639 tackle that one i'll just say real 2454 01:36:17,910 --> 01:36:16,560 briefly and i'll let my friends jump in 2455 01:36:20,310 --> 01:36:17,920 and i think we're already seeing it i 2456 01:36:22,950 --> 01:36:20,320 think it's playing out right now 2457 01:36:24,629 --> 01:36:22,960 uh-huh uh-huh yeah but i've heard other 2458 01:36:27,189 --> 01:36:24,639 people i've heard other people say the 2459 01:36:29,430 --> 01:36:27,199 same it's disclosure with a lowercase d 2460 01:36:31,510 --> 01:36:29,440 not an uppercase d it's not disclosure 2461 01:36:32,229 --> 01:36:31,520 as many ufo proponents have envisioned 2462 01:36:34,310 --> 01:36:32,239 it 2463 01:36:36,229 --> 01:36:34,320 uh but i think we're seeing aggression i 2464 01:36:38,550 --> 01:36:36,239 mean it's been a major change as i 2465 01:36:40,149 --> 01:36:38,560 alluded to earlier it's a 180 degree 2466 01:36:42,390 --> 01:36:40,159 turn we've made 2467 01:36:43,750 --> 01:36:42,400 in reference to denials official public 2468 01:36:45,910 --> 01:36:43,760 denials of the subject they're 2469 01:36:48,550 --> 01:36:45,920 acknowledging the phenomenon's real as 2470 01:36:51,270 --> 01:36:48,560 barry alluded to that's a huge step 2471 01:36:53,669 --> 01:36:51,280 and uh i think we're starting to see 2472 01:36:56,470 --> 01:36:53,679 the opening 2473 01:36:58,550 --> 01:36:56,480 to a new era with regard to the subject 2474 01:37:00,390 --> 01:36:58,560 and the government's attitude towards 2475 01:37:03,030 --> 01:37:00,400 the subject 2476 01:37:05,590 --> 01:37:03,040 the question is even if it is disclosure 2477 01:37:07,109 --> 01:37:05,600 with the pentagon report to what level 2478 01:37:09,270 --> 01:37:07,119 are we going to get any additional 2479 01:37:10,790 --> 01:37:09,280 information because admittedly we really 2480 01:37:13,629 --> 01:37:10,800 don't know any more than we did the day 2481 01:37:16,790 --> 01:37:13,639 the pentagon report came out 2482 01:37:18,629 --> 01:37:16,800 disclosure of 2483 01:37:20,470 --> 01:37:18,639 how would you envision that 2484 01:37:23,270 --> 01:37:20,480 to me it would be 2485 01:37:26,470 --> 01:37:23,280 credible information about the origins 2486 01:37:29,669 --> 01:37:26,480 of the phenomenon uh from multiple high 2487 01:37:32,950 --> 01:37:29,679 up government sources whose 2488 01:37:34,629 --> 01:37:32,960 credentials could not be impeached 2489 01:37:37,669 --> 01:37:34,639 what what he said 2490 01:37:38,709 --> 01:37:37,679 except to me closure is a four-letter 2491 01:37:40,470 --> 01:37:38,719 word 2492 01:37:42,790 --> 01:37:40,480 and uh 2493 01:37:46,229 --> 01:37:42,800 uh people that use it we should get the 2494 01:37:48,629 --> 01:37:46,239 tar bucket and uh 2495 01:37:51,270 --> 01:37:48,639 i am so tired of this word 2496 01:37:52,629 --> 01:37:51,280 i don't believe that anybody has 2497 01:37:55,270 --> 01:37:52,639 the answer 2498 01:37:58,070 --> 01:37:55,280 so we're not going to get disclosure 2499 01:37:59,830 --> 01:37:58,080 we're going to get more information 2500 01:38:02,790 --> 01:37:59,840 thank you yeah 2501 01:38:04,629 --> 01:38:02,800 that's what it would be if 2502 01:38:05,350 --> 01:38:04,639 good information came out it would be 2503 01:38:08,070 --> 01:38:05,360 disclosed 2504 01:38:10,070 --> 01:38:08,080 [Music] 2505 01:38:13,030 --> 01:38:10,080 yeah you know 2506 01:38:14,790 --> 01:38:13,040 yeah well you know i've i've uh 2507 01:38:16,390 --> 01:38:14,800 of course i haven't been doing this 2508 01:38:18,870 --> 01:38:16,400 anywhere near as long 2509 01:38:20,790 --> 01:38:18,880 as uh any one of you have been doing 2510 01:38:23,350 --> 01:38:20,800 this and i've heard that right from day 2511 01:38:25,430 --> 01:38:23,360 one um and but i also look back and i 2512 01:38:26,870 --> 01:38:25,440 think the 1960s and there was a 2513 01:38:28,629 --> 01:38:26,880 gentleman talking 2514 01:38:30,950 --> 01:38:28,639 he didn't use the word disclosure he 2515 01:38:33,350 --> 01:38:30,960 says i just want the government to tell 2516 01:38:35,990 --> 01:38:33,360 in my lifetime i got to know what this 2517 01:38:38,950 --> 01:38:36,000 is and of course he's long gone by now 2518 01:38:41,590 --> 01:38:38,960 um and and i don't i don't know if we'll 2519 01:38:43,510 --> 01:38:41,600 ever know you know um i don't i don't 2520 01:38:45,109 --> 01:38:43,520 know if we'll ever get the source 2521 01:38:47,189 --> 01:38:45,119 of the government just what you're 2522 01:38:49,669 --> 01:38:47,199 mentioning early earlier barry i don't 2523 01:38:51,590 --> 01:38:49,679 think i mean 2524 01:38:53,910 --> 01:38:51,600 even if that happened exactly how you 2525 01:38:56,070 --> 01:38:53,920 just said barry do you think people 2526 01:38:57,910 --> 01:38:56,080 would believe it 2527 01:38:59,830 --> 01:38:57,920 you're always going to have people 2528 01:39:01,830 --> 01:38:59,840 dissenting from that they'll build out 2529 01:39:04,070 --> 01:39:01,840 every word of it even if it it's 2530 01:39:05,109 --> 01:39:04,080 entirely true it's just the nature of 2531 01:39:07,270 --> 01:39:05,119 people 2532 01:39:10,229 --> 01:39:07,280 uh you know sometimes to be agreeable 2533 01:39:12,870 --> 01:39:10,239 sometimes to be contrary 2534 01:39:14,950 --> 01:39:12,880 and then sometimes that contrariness 2535 01:39:18,070 --> 01:39:14,960 doesn't come from any reasoning it's 2536 01:39:20,310 --> 01:39:18,080 just being contrary yeah so uh 2537 01:39:22,310 --> 01:39:20,320 you'll get all sorts of opinions once 2538 01:39:24,070 --> 01:39:22,320 that happens and martin you've mentioned 2539 01:39:25,910 --> 01:39:24,080 this person from the 60s i believe you 2540 01:39:27,750 --> 01:39:25,920 said that was you know just to know the 2541 01:39:28,870 --> 01:39:27,760 truth you know before before they're 2542 01:39:30,629 --> 01:39:28,880 gone 2543 01:39:32,709 --> 01:39:30,639 what we have to and again i think this 2544 01:39:34,390 --> 01:39:32,719 is what is interesting about the 2545 01:39:36,070 --> 01:39:34,400 gentleman i'm with is looking at the 2546 01:39:37,669 --> 01:39:36,080 history looking at what was written 2547 01:39:40,550 --> 01:39:37,679 decades ago 2548 01:39:42,310 --> 01:39:40,560 disclosure is nothing new in the 50s and 2549 01:39:43,750 --> 01:39:42,320 the 60s there were rumors that the 2550 01:39:45,669 --> 01:39:43,760 government's going to release all this 2551 01:39:47,910 --> 01:39:45,679 information we're hearing rumors right 2552 01:39:50,229 --> 01:39:47,920 barry that this is all this information 2553 01:39:52,149 --> 01:39:50,239 is going to come out very very soon 2554 01:39:54,070 --> 01:39:52,159 radio shows that i've been digitizing 2555 01:39:55,830 --> 01:39:54,080 from the 60s and the 70s they were 2556 01:39:58,229 --> 01:39:55,840 saying the same thing 2557 01:39:59,990 --> 01:39:58,239 after decade after decade after decade 2558 01:40:02,629 --> 01:40:00,000 you have to have some skepticism with 2559 01:40:04,470 --> 01:40:02,639 regard to disclosure but again that 2560 01:40:06,070 --> 01:40:04,480 being said uh 2561 01:40:08,310 --> 01:40:06,080 the pentagon report 2562 01:40:10,149 --> 01:40:08,320 is here right and and they're they're 2563

subject what do you 2566 01:40:17,910 --> 01:40:16,320 want to call it disclosure i mean i 2567 01:40:20,229 --> 01:40:17,920 don't want to get hung up on labels but 2568 01:40:22,870 --> 01:40:20,239 we're definitely in a new era now we've 2569 01:40:25,189 --> 01:40:22,880 been saying the things that are in the 2570 01:40:26,950 --> 01:40:25,199 task force report 2571 01:40:30,070 --> 01:40:26,960 years and years ago 2572 01:40:32,229 --> 01:40:30,080 but now the government is backing us up 2573 01:40:34,149 --> 01:40:32,239 in what we had said it's validating if 2574 01:40:35,270 --> 01:40:34,159 anything right exactly 2575 01:40:37,270 --> 01:40:35,280 so 2576 01:40:39,830 --> 01:40:37,280 the hastings had a 2577 01:40:44,229 --> 01:40:39,840 navy fighter pilot 2578

publications or a letter or something 2668 01:44:32,390 --> 01:44:28,320 and people quote that as if it's coming 2669 01:44:35,030 --> 01:44:32,400 from the fbi the fbi is only reporting 2670 01:44:38,070 --> 01:44:35,040 they got that document from somebody to 2671 01:44:40,470 --> 01:44:38,080 headquarters yeah that's happening 2672 01:44:42,870 --> 01:44:40,480 i can't people read 2673 01:44:44,870 --> 01:44:42,880 that's the problem the fbi couldn't draw 2674 01:44:46,390 --> 01:44:44,880 conclusions like that anyway i think 2675 01:44:47,669 --> 01:44:46,400 that would have to come from somewhere 2676 01:44:49,990 --> 01:44:47,679 else yeah 2677 01:44:52,149 --> 01:44:50,000 so you would think so yeah yeah so this 2678 01:44:54,629 --> 01:44:52,159 is this is just reporting them 2679 01:44:55,590 --> 01:44:54,639 and it says right on there we got this 2680 01:44:56,950 --> 01:44:55,600 from 2681 01:45:05,189 --> 01:44:56,960 uh 2682 01:45:10,310 --> 01:45:05,199 the 2683 01:45:12,790 --> 01:45:10,320 uh san francisco 2684 01:45:15,510 --> 01:45:12,800 uh the flying roll 2685 01:45:18,310 --> 01:45:15,520 oh uh the the uh yeah the portal and 2686 01:45:19,910 --> 01:45:18,320 science borderlands science they they 2687 01:45:21,750 --> 01:45:19,920 said we got this from somebody from 2688 01:45:24,950 --> 01:45:21,760 borderland science 2689 01:45:26,629 --> 01:45:24,960 so it's somebody else's report of what 2690 01:45:29,669 --> 01:45:26,639 they thought it happened it's not the 2691 01:45:31,270 --> 01:45:29,679 fbi's report their the fbi is quoting

01:45:37,360 people but but to jan's point in the 2696 01:45:41,189 --> 01:45:39,119 defense of those that sometimes read 2697 01:45:44,550 --> 01:45:41,199 that you're only seeing an excerpt and i 2698 01:45:46,550 --> 01:45:44,560 think context and again provenance is 2699 01:45:50,470 --> 01:45:46,560 extremely important when you're trying 2700 01:45:52,149 --> 01:45:50,480 to look at these

01:47:07,600 really give us a good idea of what 2736 01:47:12,470 --> 01:47:09,760 transpired on what was a very early but 2737 01:47:14,390 --> 01:47:12,480 very dramatic uh case when i might add 2738 01:47:16,950 --> 01:47:14,400 there were really no civilian ufo groups 2739 01:47:19,270 --> 01:47:16,960 doing active investigations uh the only 2740 01:47:21,430 --> 01:47:19,280 really serious work that was done was by 2741 01:47:23,590 --> 01:47:21,440 dr james mcdonald decade 2742 01:47:26,149 --> 01:47:23,600 about a decade and a half later 2743 01:47:27,590 --> 01:47:26,159 when he

01:47:31,040 these two gentlemen on the phone one day 2747 01:47:34,950 --> 01:47:32,639 as we often do 2748 01:47:37,830 --> 01:47:34,960 and i forget if i interrupted barry or 2749 01:47:40,149 -->

--> 01:47:52,880 purportedly related to an october 1950 2756 01:47:57,189 --> 01:47:53,840 sighting 2757 01:47:59,109 --> 01:47:57,199 and i see the name hulon pace and that's 2758 01:48:01,590 --> 01:47:59,119 a very unusual name i've never known 2759 01:48:03,430 --> 01:48:01,600 anybody named hulon pace before so it 2760 01:48:05,350 --> 01:48:03,440 definitely stood out 2761 01:48:07,669 --> 01:48:05,360 if anybody else would have been leafing 2762 01:48:09,510 --> 01:48:07,679 through these files martin 2763 01:48:10,550 --> 01:48:09,520 it wouldn't have even been a blip on the 2764 01:48:12,390 --> 01:48:10,560 radar 2765 01:48:14,229 --> 01:48:12,400 i knew that name because that was one of 2766 01:48:16,870 --> 01:48:14,239 the additional witnesses i uncovered 2767 01:48:19,109 --> 01:48:16,880 when i got the unredacted air force osi 2768 01:48:20,550 --> 01:48:19,119 documents so i knew the name it was one 2769 01:48:21,830 --> 01:48:20,560 of the witnesses that we hadn't known 2770 01:48:23,990 --> 01:48:21,840 about before 2771 01:48:26,070 --> 01:48:24,000 i see the name hulon pace it's it's got 2772 01:48:28,070 --> 01:48:26,080 to be the same guy how many hulon pieces 2773 01:48:29,590 --> 01:48:28,080 are there out there so i pulled the 2774 01:48:31,270 --> 01:48:29,600 document out while while these two 2775 01:48:32,310 --> 01:48:31,280 gentlemen are chattering they think i'm 2776 01:48:33,510 --> 01:48:32,320 listening and i was completely 2777 01:48:35,270 --> 01:48:33,520 distracted 2778 01:48:36,470 --> 01:48:35,280 and i pulled the document out and i have 2779 01:48:39,109 --> 01:48:36,480 it here now 2780 01:48:41,830 --> 01:48:39,119 uh it's an original report form that was 2781 01:48:44,310 --> 01:48:41,840 dated from the 1960s 2782 01:48:45,669 --> 01:48:44,320 interviewing hulon pace from farmington 2783 01:48:49,270 --> 01:48:45,679 new mexico 2784 01:48:51,510 --> 01:48:49,280 describing the incident from 1950 2785 01:48:52,310 --> 01:48:51,520 but he must have erroneously remembered 2786 01:48:54,550 --> 01:48:52,320 it 2787 01:48:56,149 --> 01:48:54,560 from being from october of that year not 2788 01:48:57,669 --> 01:48:56,159 the spring of that year which often 2789 01:48:59,430 --> 01:48:57,679 happens with witnesses they'll think 2790 01:49:01,030 --> 01:48:59,440 back well i don't remember the month but 2791 01:49:03,109 --> 01:49:01,040 i remember i had a light jacket on and 2792 01:49:04,870 --> 01:49:03,119 it was kind of cool quite often people 2793 01:49:06,149 --> 01:49:04,880 remember things that they'll go or 2794 01:49:08,709 --> 01:49:06,159 remember something like that but they 2795 01:49:10,629 --> 01:49:08,719 won't remember the month sure but when 2796 01:49:12,950 --> 01:49:10,639 you read the report 2797 01:49:14,790 --> 01:49:12,960 it is a play by play of the incident 2798 01:49:17,510 --> 01:49:14,800 that occurred in farmington 2799 01:49:19,669 --> 01:49:17,520 but what was unique about this was the 2800 01:49:22,629 --> 01:49:19,679 document had two additional witness 2801 01:49:25,589 --> 01:49:22,639 names that no ufo researcher or 2802 01:49:26,709 --> 01:49:25,599 historian had ever heard of tied to this 2803 01:49:28,550 --> 01:49:26,719 case 2804 01:49:31,270 --> 01:49:28,560 even more important 2805 01:49:33,990 --> 01:49:31,280

01:49:38,320 viewing it from the side it was 2809 01:49:45,589 --> 01:49:41,679 basically a a lenticular type of object 2810 01:49:47,030 --> 01:49:45,599 but to date in 70 years we never had any 2811 01:49:48,709 --> 01:49:47,040 witness sketches 2812 01:49:52,470 --> 01:49:48,719 we had verbal accounts we had 2813 01:49:54,470 --> 01:49:52,480 typewritten accounts but no sketches so 2814 01:49:57,990 --> 01:49:54,480 just by happenstance going through an 2815 01:50:00,470 --> 01:49:58,000 october 1950 file i found a new witness 2816 01:50:02,709 --> 01:50:00,480 report that mentioned
