Quote from the article:
“The letter said two of NICAP’s Directors – Vice Adm. R. H. Hillenkoetter (Ret.), former head of the Central Intelligence Agency, and President J. B. Hartranft of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Assn. – were willing to meet with Air Force officials and ‘submit for evaluation factual evidence that UFOs are real and under intelligent control.’ ”

The late Roscoe Henry Hillenkoetter was a U.S. Navy Vice Admiral, the third director of the post-WWII U.S. Central Intelligence Group (CIG), and the first director of the Central Intelligence Agency created by the National Security Act of 1947.
