What could be more interesting and important than an incident involving UFOs and our strategic defenses, especially where there appears to have been a direct relationship between the incident and the failure of vital missile targeting systems, ten missiles at one site and ten at another,35 miles
apart! ‘Some signal had been sent to the missiles which caused them to go off
alert status.’ What most people do not understand is, this was not just an
unfounded rumor. The incident has been confirmed. Although it is normal for
authorities to ‘explain away’ almost all UFO incidents, this one is not that

In the 1967 Malmstrom incident 10 Minutemans DID get knocked out, but the investigation was conducted not by NSA but by the missile contractor Boeing, which issued a SECRET classified ‘Report of Engineering Investigation of Echo Flight Incident, Malmstrom, Mont - 16 Mar1967.’ The trick was that
the UFO ‘rumors’ were denied so that the missile disabling could be
investigated and reported as if unrelated to the UFO’s (which WERE sighted,
contrary to the flimsy denials). No
satisfactory explanation for the missile disabling was found. (See below)
Presumably whenever these kinds of national security UFO incidents occurred
that affected military equipment there were investigations by contractors who
built or maintained the equipment, and the UFO aspects were compartmented
off. At a higher level these reports
could be read by someone cleared to know about the UFO details, and they could
ignore the perfunctory denials of UFO activity written into the contractor
studies.”
