UFO News Article:
“Airmen Report Flying Saucers
In Sky Near Russian Islands
21 January 1953 (The Modesto Bee, California)

U.S. Air Force fighter pilots and ground personnel sighted UFOs over Northern Hokkaido, Japan on 29 December 1952, according to the article:


The UFOs were also tracked on radar.

Quote from the article:
“Mysterious flying objects – ‘rotating clusters of red, white and green lights’ – have been reported over northern Japan by American airmen flying patrol close to Russia’s Kurile (or Kuril) Islands and Sakhalin.

Air force intelligence reports said today: ‘There are too many indications of the presence of something … to be considered an observation of nothing.’

Intelligence officers discounted the possibility the sighted objects were mere ‘reflections of light.’ ”

And on 9 January 1953, two U.S. Air Force fighter pilots sighted a rotating UFO cluster. These UFOs were also tracked on radar.

“The Request

3. On 11 April 2007 the complainant made the following request:

‘My request, (therefore), is for copies of MoD papers, records

to the media and 2) via the release of Open Skies Closed Minds

include specific public interest material within the coverage 
of this request as follows:

a) Any internal discussions relating to Mr. Pope's public statements in the Mail on Sunday 2 July 1995, The Independent 3 June 1996 and other press articles during 1995/1996. 

b) Any specific discussions relating to Mr Pope’s published
statements that contradicted the department’s officially stated
policy on the subject of UFO’s and their supposed defence threat.

c) Any papers, generated by MOD or its PCB branch, that relate to
Mr Pope’s public allegation that ‘there was a faction [in the MOD]
that certainly didn’t want the book to appear.’ Specifically I
request a copy of ‘the short letter’ referred to in Mr Pope’s
interview with IUR which allegedly said his manuscript was
‘completely unacceptable to MoD and quite beyond any suitable
Amendment’ and any related discussion which resolved this
issue. As Mr Pope has spoken of this matter openly and in public
it cannot be seriously argued that this material falls within the
