UFO Encounter Revealed After Almost 40 Years By Ex-Military Pilot: Exclusive
He didn't know the evening would evolve into a game of "tag" with an unidentified flying object. (main.aol.com) और अधिक...There are hundreds of UFO reports every year. Surely they can't all be because of nutjobs and weather balloons. Besides, he's not claiming it to be extraterrestrial in any way--it's simply unidentified.
The article (perhaps to lend creedance to the story) says his security clearance gave him access to documents... Well, what most folks do not know is merely having a clearance, Top Secret or otherwise, does not automatically grant you access to information classified at that level. One must have a need to know and be cleared into that compartment. I'd bet that the mere act of asking to see the documents (if they actually exist) would keep him from getting access. If he had been working in the cleared area and been briefed in, items briefed at the Top Secret level and above, have a lifetime "no discussion" clause ( so I am told). Thus, one could find reason to be sceptical of the story.
Makes you wonder what the motive is for "going public". You either mistrust or you accept. For those who have had experiences they cannot explain it is easy to accept, but that presupposes they have "perfect information" on technology that is a military secret, or they presume that it exists. And of course most aviators in the commercial world are experienced in visual recognition and are what I call "givers", in other words if they can help people they will.
