January 15, 2005 Sandia, Texas – I have investigated the phenomenon of animal mutilations since 1979 and before he died, U. S. Army Lt. Col. Philip J. Corso told me that he had seen with his own eyes, during his work for the Eisenhower and Kennedy Administrations, highly classified documents about unusual and bloodless animal deaths around the world dated as early as 1951. That would be only four years after the Roswell, New Mexico, headlines about an unidentified flying disc that had crashed near Corona.Click for report.

Aloha Linda,
Tonight I was listening to you on Coast when I recalled an incident which happened in 1951 while my Dad was stationed at the Millington Naval Air Station in Tennessee. Millington was in the middle of cotton fields then.
My Dad was the Maintainance Officer at the Station. He came home from work one day, crying like a baby, which upset all in the family, since very rarely did we see our Father cry.
He told us about his best friend, a Navy pilot who we all knew since this man always made home-made ice cream for us. His (Dad’s) best friend had disappeared along with his plane…completely disappeared after chasing a UFO near the Naval Base there in Millington.
I was 12 at the time and had never heard the words UFO in my life.
I remember asking my Dad what a UFO was and his only reply was that they were bad people….so for many years growing up I just assumed UFOs were some kind of enemies of the U.S.
I also remember my Dad being very sad and angry for about two weeks. He finally told us that his friend and his plane were gone forever never to be found. After that short conversation, my Dad never mentioned this incident again or his best friend.
Sorry, I cannot remember the name of the pilot and my Dad has passed away.
Love your site!!!

“As a former university archivist, I can assure you that the person you interviewed for your December 11th Dreamland report was correct in every detail of his description of archival protocol and operation.
I write requesting confidentiality, but perhaps you might be interested to know that there is sensitive information on the controversial subject of UFOs and related subjects at both the Nebraska State Historical Society and at the Archives/Special Collections of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. But such is the case across the country’s archives. Click for report.

Veterinarian Examines Pollok, Texas Carcass

See: 10-14-04 Earthfiles and 10-20-04 Earthfiles. October 22, 2004
Lufkin, Texas – On Monday, October 18, I contacted veterinarian, Craig Wood, D.V.M., at the East Texas Veterinary Clinic in Lufkin, Texas, to see if he would be willing to excise the head and other body parts from the animal Stacey Womack’s brother shot on October 8, and ship to a veterinarian DNA diagnostic laboratory. Dr. Wood agreed to help if Stacey would dig up the animal and deliver to his clinic. On Wednesday, October 20, Stacey drove the skeleton enshrouded with dark hide to Dr. Wood’s office. Given controversial headlines about “chupacabras” connections, I asked him for his professional assessment.Click for report.
Mysterious Deaths of Squirrels in Michigan
October 22, 2004 Lansing, Michigan – Several incidents of unexplained animal deaths have been reported recently.
- Two steers and one heifer were found dead and mutilated in Craig, Colorado, last week. Their genitals had been removed. No evidence about how the deaths were accomplished. The Moffat County Sheriff’s Office asked a Colorado state veterinarian to examine the three cows.
- This past weekend at the Long Beach Peninsula in the state of Washington, hundreds of giant squid washed up dead. Cause unknown. Some people harvested them for food, but the marine fish manager in the State Fish and Wildlife Department warned, “I sure wouldn’t eat them. It would be like eating a deer on the side of the road.” You don’t know what killed them.
