Subject: Project 1947 - Sec. of AF, Office of Information
The following letter is from Senator Richard Russell and is found in the
Secretary of the Air Force, Office of Information UFO file 1949 to April
1952. The microfilm is somewhat difficult to read, especially the letter
head. So only the central part of the letterhead is copied here.
UNITED STATES SENATE
Committee on Armed Services
February 21, 1952
Honorable Thomas K. Finletter
Secretary of the Air Force
Department of the Air Force
Washington, D.C.
Dear Mr. Secretary:
Members of the Committee on Armed Services have expressed a desire
to be informed of Air Force evaluation of recent news articles concerning
the observation of "flying saucers" by combat airmen in the Far East.
I shall appreciate you furnishing for the use of the Committee an
official report of these observatons together with your evaluation
thereof and such other information as you deem pertinent to this inquiry.
Sincerely,
Richard B Russel [signed]

It would certainly be interesting to see what the Air Force told the
Senate Armed Services Committee. Now that Congress has put themselves
under Federal Law and lifted their exemptions, could a FOIA request be
submitted to the Senate Armed Services Committee? Just a thought.....
