Hello Henny, hello everybody, This report will be released by a french magazine (VSD Hors-Serie) friday the 16th. It is not a report from the IHEDN! It's not an official report. But I confirm that it will be signed, individually, by high rank persons of the french army, intelligence and so on... These persons have founded a association, a sort of private committee. But it's important to say that's not a "state" report, even if the authors are (or have been) in functions at a high level of the french defense community. The preface will be written by a famous general, former director of the IHEDN. At first, this report has been written at the attention of the President Chirac and his Prime Minister. After some talks between the magazine and the association, a public released (via the "VSD-Hors Serie"mag.) has been granted under strict conditions. The title : "OVNI & Defense - A quoi devons-nous nous attendre" (UFO and Defense - What must we wait for?) - sorry for the eventual bad translation. It will be interesting because the names of the people. There are 3 main parts: 1. Facts and witnesses 2. Knowledge level (what we know until now) 3. Involvment of the french Defense, advise for the gvt. I think it will possible for non-french people to order this issue. Last year, the same magazine published another special UFO issue. There were a lot of important persons (military pilot, scientists, and so on...) who were interviewed. The journalists (not ufologists) working for that magazine are very good I think. But it's only my personal point of view. Regards Thierry UFOCOM Gen.Coord. http://www.finart.be/UfocomHq/
