Quote from the article:
“During an interview with KLAS-TV investigative
reporter George Knapp, former U.S. Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) acknowledged that
among the UFO cases scrutinized by the newly-revealed Pentagon UFO project were
those involving UFO incursions at U.S. Air Force ICBM sites.
In an email to me, Knapp said that the specific incidents
studied were the so-called ‘Northern Tier’ cases, occurring at Strategic Air
Command bases in October and November 1975.
Those events have long been a matter of public record
via documents released to researchers using the Freedom of Information Act in
1977.
The files, together with testimony from USAF veterans
interviewed by myself and others, confirm a series of sightings by security
personnel of anomalous aerial objects maneuvering near ICBM sites operated by
Malmstrom AFB, Montana, as well as at nuclear Weapons Storage Areas (WSAs) at
Loring AFB, Maine, and Wurtsmith AFB, Michigan.
One NORAD log entry pertaining to Malmstrom said that
several UFOs were observed above Minuteman missile sites over a several-hour
period on November 7th; one of them was described as an ‘orange white disc
object.’ According to the logs, as many as nine UFOs were tracked on radar and
pursued, unsuccessfully, by F-106 fighters. As a result of this incident, as
well as those at Loring and Wurtsmith, the Pentagon placed its entire nuclear
force on a heightened alert status known as a Security Option 3.”
