Part 4: UFO Crash/Retrievals: Status Report III – Amassing The Evidence

"Within Fort Hood is Gray AAF, known as Robert Gray Field, where AF personnel are attached while at Fort Hood. ...a pilot had to make a forced landing on a dusty field (at Gray) and the next thing he saw was an approaching jeep with armed MPs ... and a huge section of land separating like 'giant sliding doors' with vegetation intact revealing a huge corridor inside."

- USAF Captain Stationed at Fort Hood, Central Texas

Flying Disc Paced Airliner Over Puget Sound Navy Yard

Puget Sound Navy Ship Yard near Bremerton, Washington, west of Seattle.
Puget Sound Navy Ship Yard near Bremerton, Washington, west of Seattle.

March 7, 2005  Shelton, Washington - Jim Strong's interest in unidentified flying objects began during his U. S. Air Force work from February 1964 to February 1968. He was trained at Keesler Technical Training Center in Biloxi, Mississippi, in advanced electronics and radar. Then he was stationed with the 757 Radar Squadron at Blaine AFB on the Canadian border. Once there, Jim was assigned to the Search Radar unit. [Editor's Note: In search radar, the antenna goes around in a circle and picks off the azimuth, or direction, of aircraft. In height finder radar, the antenna nods up and down.]

"[N. J. state trooper] described aerial object as oval-shaped, with no details, and glowing with a bluish-green color. His radio transmission was cut off. At that time in front of his police car appeared a thing, about 4 feet tall, greyish-brown, fat head, long arms and slender body."

"Fred Schaefer's report on KA's aftermath:

Since 1954, when this incident allegedly occurred, KA has been having intermittent nightmares about his experience in the desert. During the year 1981, these nightmares have grown in intensity and frequency, causing KA much anguish. During the lecture at Edmund Scientific Company in March, KA saw his opportunity to reveal details of his UFO retrieval experience to someone who would lend an understanding ear; thereby helping to alleviate his mental torment.

Part 2: UFO Crash/Retrievals: Status Report III – Amassing The Evidence

"The saucer-like object had a stationary dome in the center, but the outer rim was still spinning in a counter-clockwise direction, and the lights on this outer edge were rotating in the same direction. But what startled us more was the sight of four small bodies scattered outside the craft. They were motionless and appeared to be dead."

"THE FIRST PERSON REPORT: CLASSIFIED 'A'

This paper follows the reportorial pattern established in The UFO Crash/Retrieval Syndrome, Status Report II, published by MUFON in January 1980. As before, case history reports are divided into two parts. Reports from first person witnesses are classified as 'A,' while 'B' reports concern secondhand or intermediary information and other relative data submitted by researchers.

"I don't know of anyone who has access to the (Pentagon) blue room, nor am I aware of its contents and I am not aware of anything having been relocated. ...this thing (UFOs) has gotten so highly classified, even though I will admit there is a lot of it that has been released, it is just impossible to get anything on it."

"PROLOGUE: THE BIGGEST STORY EVER, NEVER TOLD

"Ever since World War II when the first UFOs, dubbed 'foo fighters,' became officially recognized, the mystery of their origin and intent has haunted the minds of man. Most ponder the puzzlement skeptically amused; others want to believe and straddle a philosophic fence guessing for answers. As we head into the decade of the 1980s, serious research has not found the answer either, or the proof to qualify an answer. Officially, the mystery remains ostensibly irresolvable. To those wary and who have taken the time to probe, the official position is as mysterious as the UFO itself.

FINAL Part 4: UFO Crash/Retrievals: Status Report IV – Fatal Encounter At Ft. Dix-McGuire

"After the shooting of the non-human entity], taking command was a new and unfamiliar team of Blue Berets that suddenly descended onto the scene, just moments after the runway had been cordoned off. With speed and efficiency, 'they took over,' he said, 'and when asked who they were, we were told nothing and ordered to stay outside the ropes.'"

Leonard H. Stringfield: "The document is avowedly not proof. For it to be established as bona fide would, in turn, require additional irretrievable reports, memoranda, tapes, ad infinitum. In this regard, however, Morse said on several occasions that he had attempted to obtain a later Form 1569 Report mentioned by the desk sergeant, but was unsuccessful. Nevertheless, the Incident/Complaint Report, as it stands, is a strong link of evidence not easily dismissed, even if denied officially or by any of its named personnel who might be coerced to do so. (Note 4: See Incident Complaint Report, Item 11, where the box for 'Unfounded' is checked. Inasmuch as 'Unfounded' suggests that the incident was baseless, I asked Morse to explain this classification. He said that it referred only to the limited information available to his security police squadron, which was not in a position to evaluate the incident. Also note that the check in Item 13 indicates that the case was referred to 'Other agency' (AFOSI - Air Force Office of Special Investigations) for final disposition, including 'One body of unknown origin ...' released to other authorities. The security police squadron had no basis for any other 'Evaluation.'

Leonard H. Stringfield: "By March 1981, while preparing the text for Status Report III, I had decided it was time to take inventory; time for appraisal of the material on hand and of myself still in the midst of a heated controversy among researchers over the pros and cons of UFO crashes and retrievals. I needed outside thinking and assessment of cases, a new perspective. To this end, I invited to my home two trustworthy friends who supported and contributed to my endeavors: Dr. Peter Rank, Chief of Radiology at the Methodist Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin; and Richard Hall, former Assistant Director of NICAP and then Editor of the MUFON UFO Journal. (Note 3: See statement in Epilogue, page 49, of Status Report III, signed by Dr. Peter Rank and Richard Hall.)

"ABSTRACT

Leonard H. Stringfield: New testimonial evidence and a document are bared in Status Report IV, following the re-emergence in 1983 of the informant whose experience, as a witness, was first disclosed three years earlier and published as Case A3 in Status Report III, 1982. The source, a sergeant in the U. S. Air Force Security Police at McGuire AFB, adds substantive information relative to the reported fatal encounter on January 18, 1978, between an alleged alien entity and a Ft. Dix MP and relates his firsthand observation, while on duty, when the slain entity was found on an abandoned runway at McGuire AFB. The source also reveals his sensitive involvement with authorities in various agencies following his discharge from service because of his disclosures to this writer. Also reported are the communications with the source since 1980 and an arranged meeting between the source and a colleague to lend back-up credibility to the case. Investigation continues.

FINAL Part 3: UFO Crash/Retrievals: Status Report V – Is The Cover-Up Lid Lifting?

"...Escorted to a briefing room, (photographer and others) were told that they were to photograph a flying saucer and the autopsy of three dead aliens. Ordered to disrobe, they were issued white smocks and combat boots for security purposes. Mike was then escorted into the installation where he saw a disc-shaped craft about 30 feet in diameter contained in a heavy net suspended from a large crane."
