NCP Supplemental Web Page (E-Mail): “Subject: USAF Strategic Air Command began Ground Alert Operations on October 1, 1957”

Quote from the web page:

“USAF Strategic Air Command began Ground Alert Operations on October 1, 1957, whereby it would maintain approximately one-third of its aircraft on ground alert, with weapons loaded and crews standing by for immediate take-off.

The beginings of the great UFO Wave of 1957 seemed to have started in October 1957 and continued through December 1957.

In the first week in November 1957, the predicted UFO wave began. As sightings occurred worldwide, the greatest number of sightings seemed to concentrate in the United States, Brazil, and Japan. In terms of numbers the UFO wave of 1957 produced more UFO sightings than any other UFO wave. At this unique period of time the CIA established ‘The Director of Central Intelligence Committee on Overhead Reconnaissance’. Years later this committee evolved into the very spooky National Reconnaissance Office. The NRO’s focus is planet earth.”
