cryptography course crypto they 24 00:01:38,310 --> 00:01:46,430 had five instructors that were getting 25 00:01:41,969 --> 00:01:51,530 out of military service so they pull the 26 00:01:46,430 --> 00:01:56,030 top five students and I was third in 27 00:01:51,530 --> 00:01:59,099 class so I got pulled as an instructor 28 00:01:56,030 --> 00:02:05,009 now were you at this time also working 29

thought boy must 38 00:02:35,289 --> 00:02:42,158 be a pretty exclusive thing yeah and I 39 00:02:39,370 --> 00:02:47,799 said well what is this and he said that 40 00:02:42,158 --> 00:02:50,888 I'm director for the CIA for eastern 41 00:02:47,799 --> 00:02:52,599 United States and I said oh I didn't 42 00:02:50,889 --> 00:02:58,060 know that and he said you weren't 43 00:02:52,598 --> 00:03:01,120 supposed to after about six weeks my 44 00:02:58,060 --> 00:03:06,218 security clearance came through and I 45 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:08,680 got my CIA card it was an ID card like a 46 00:03:06,218 --> 00:03:12,218 credit card where I could just go up to 47 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:18,040 the door and slice it walk right in in 48 00:03:12,218 --> 00:03:24,068 my name at that time I used a artificial 49 00:03:18,039 --> 00:03:27,698 name - never used my real name I started 50 00:03:24,068 --> 00:03:32,488 working with him on the project he was 51 00:03:27,699 --> 00:03:36,870 on and there was a project Bluebook 52 00:03:32,489 --> 00:03:39,400 which was kind of partially a fraud 53 00:03:36,870 --> 00:03:43,750 figure think some of the Blue Book cases 54 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:47,859 were we're completely fictitious yes but 55 00:03:43,750 --> 00:03:53,049 the cases that we got came from I think 56 00:03:47,859 --> 00:03:56,620 it was Fort Belleville Marilyn mmm Fort 57 00:03:53,049 --> 00:03:59,500 Belvoir yeah and it didn't come from the 58 00:03:56,620 --> 00:04:03,699 Pentagon or didn't come from CIA 59 00:03:59,500 --> 00:04:07,829 headquarters but we would get reports 60 00:04:03,699 --> 00:04:12,189 about a certain sighting at the head--it 61 00:04:07,829 --> 00:04:15,729 Mexico or Italy or something like that 62 00:04:12,188 --> 00:04:18,819 and then we would have to we had people 63 00:04:15,729 --> 00:04:22,360 that would follow through on it then I 64 00:04:18,819 --> 00:04:24,409 go out and interview the people to see 65 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,480 if they were not cases 66 00:04:24,410 --> 00:04:30,439 or if it was real they'd be going 67 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:36,740 overseas frequently I I wasn't but I 68 00:04:30,439 --> 00:04:40,069 always stayed stay wise but the people 69 00:04:36,740 --> 00:04:43,329 we had working with us the CIA would do 70 00:04:40,069 --> 00:04:48,849 that we would get like a new report 71 00:04:43,329 --> 00:04:51,800 probably a couple times a week I was 72 00:04:48,850 --> 00:04:55,580 coming into the army fresh off the farm 73 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:59,840 you know so I really didn't

code for 163 00:10:40,460 --> 00:10:47,600 Ackerson gravity in a three by five card 164 00:10:43,759 --> 00:10:51,620 I guess there are different types of 165 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:57,659 Gray's and so on how did you see that 166 00:10:51,620 --> 00:11:03,409 evidence well at the later on 167 00:10:57,659 --> 00:11:07,500 it is four we viewed the autopsy film 168 00:11:03,409 --> 00:11:12,149 and

bringing you out here at 191 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:34,650 all anyway to see an alien what was the 192 00:12:31,409 --> 00:12:38,519 point to go back and tell the prison 193 00:12:34,649 --> 00:12:41,699 they actually had one so he did not know 194 00:12:38,519 --> 00:12:45,120 at this point if there was an alien at 195 00:12:41,700 --> 00:12:46,440 us for know what did you do that at area 196 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,289 were you done or did you have other 197 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:52,800 things to do yes to basically whoever 198 00:12:48,289 --> 00:12:56,579 kind of done went back area 51 mmm 199 00:12:52,799 --> 00:13:00,419 they took us into the main building and 200 00:12:56,580 --> 00:13:03,920 then we saw a u2 which of course we did 201 00:13:00,419 --> 00:13:03,919
