UFO News Article: “UFO Reports Aren’t Shrugged Off”

6 May 1966 
(Meriden Journal, Meriden – Southington, Connecticut)

The article focuses mainly on the UFO inquiries of the U.S. Air Force:

http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=nzlIAAAAIBAJ&sjid=7gANAAAAIBAJ&pg=2818,638498

Quote from the article:

“Last year, 886 UFO sightings were turned in, and the Air Force attempted to track down every one of them. Sixteen of the sightings were never explained.

Air Force Secretary Harold Brown, a nuclear physicist, has said that he will urge a number of universities to form scientific teams to probe in depth 100 selected sightings reported this year.

The Air Force states that, after 19 years of collecting data, it has no proof that U.S. security has been threatened by ‘flying saucers’ or any other unidentified form of flying body. There is no evidence to support the belief voiced by many that mysterious devices from outer space exist.

The astronomers admit, however, that they rarely attempt to scan the Earth’s atmosphere.

There is one exception, the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Mass. Its observers state that its lower-tracking telescopes pick up hundreds of unidentified objects which they have no time to check out.”

Harold Brown,

former U.S. Secretary of Defense (1977-1981)

(at the time of the 1966 UFO Hearings,

Brown was Secretary of the Air Force)

UFO Mailing List Post: “AP & Hastings On Area 51 Declas Docs”

(UFO UpDates, Toronto, Canada)

Robert L. Hastings (presents the link to the AP article) reports on the recent interview he gave to Associated Press reporter Hannah Dreier:

http://ufoupdateslist.com/2013/aug/m17-001.shtml

In this post, Hastings mentions the U.S. Air Force’s standard PR statement on UFOs. FOIA-released documents confirm that the USAF has investigated UFO incidents after 1969, Hastings argues.

UFO News Article: “Auburndale Policemen Report UFO Sighting”

27 March 1979 (The Ledger, Lakeland, Florida)

The police officers Guthrie Knorr and John Knapp sighted 5 fast-flying, brightly coloured, disk shaped UFOs over Auburndale (Florida) on 27 March 1979, shortly after 2:00 a.m., The Ledger reports:

http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1346&dat=19790327&id=MXVRAAAAIBAJ&sjid=uPoDAAAAIBAJ&pg=3403,9382357

Quote from the article:

“ ‘They weren’t shooting stars,’ said Knorr. ‘They were in an old V-formation with two on one side and three on the other. One of them was bigger than the others.’

Shortly after the sighting, a citizen told police he spotted five streaking objects near the city, Knorr said.

Knorr said Knapp called the UFO Sighting Center in Seattle, Wash., to report this morning’s sighting.”
