Philip asked, "Grandad, what did you do during the war? Then Nicholas said, "Have you ever seen a flying saucer?" and Andy had to get his part in and asked, "Have you ever seen ET Grandpa?" I thought I had better leave thern a legacy and so I began to write my memoirs with the foreword: If one passage in these memoirs helps you survive in a troubled world, then ali this work is not in vain, Later I added: If one passage in the addendum helps you recognize and survive against an enemy from outer space, then this additional revelation is not in vain. And so began a work which has continued for over five years ZL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank the sixteen various U.S- Army installa- tions frorn which I requested historical and background infor- mation on detaìls of projects and studies in which I partici- pated.

Trudeau. He presented my copy to me personally, with instructions to use the contents as I saw fit- Never once did I have to use the freedom of information act* Probably because 1 was deeply imbedded into the system and could guide them to fulfill my . requests, many of which fell under my jurisdiction while 1 was on duty and the service which I served and was proud of its accomplìshments . 3 INTRODUCTION DAWN OF A NEW AGE Legend has it that ceaturies past (4,000 B.C.) the "Gods" or extraterrestrìals from another planet carne to earth, created a new ,r homo sapiens, 1 ' then later decided to destroy mankind, After a deluge of destruction they decided to let humans survive. The goddess Inanna/ Ishtar took the lead in insuring survival of the human race- Millenniums later the great Chinese general Sun Tzu, who used intelligence to win ali his battles said: If you don't know your enemy or don ' t know yourself you will lese every battle. If you know yourself and not your enemy or know your enemy and not yourself, you will lose half of your battles, but If you know yourself and know your enemy, you don't have to fear the outeome of a thousand battles. In the case of UFO's or extraterrestrìals we have been led to believe that they don't exist. So, even before we begin to analyze events concerning UFOs and EBEs , we have ìost half of our battle. This is the point in time where we are at present. The other half whereby we don't know ourselves, cannot be 100% ruled out since great men have expressed themselves as believers, some of which are Gen. Douglas McArthur, Gen . George Marshall, Werner Von Braun, Y President Ronald Reagan, Gen, Nathan Twining, Gen. Walter Bedell Smith, Dr. Cari Gustav Jung and many others* Because of U.S. Government policy, which was and stili is that UFOs and EBEs do not exist, they could not be classi- fied as a threat to our national security. Kostile acts are ignored or explained away. Except for the exceptional men named above, . in Sun Tzu's words, we stand to lose every battle vhere this "non-existent" entity is involved. The situation even spilled over into the realm of research and development. How could a development derive from something that didn r t exist? Any hardware was an aberration. Scientists such as Dr. Herman Oberth, Stanton T. Friedman, Robert Sarbacher, W.B, Smith, Dr. Werner Von Braun, etc, are dis- regarded or ridiculed when they say, "we cannot take the credit for our record advancements in certain scientific fields alone, WE have been helped by people of other worlds." So intense was the cover-up that it out rivaled the KGB disinformation activities in politicai matters. The perpetrators also used the Soviet technique of creating an obnoxious label, such as the McCarthyism label, and pinning this on ali opponents* In this case, it was the label of "kook" to be used agaìnst ali who believed that UFOs and EBEs were real. These activities might eventually prove to be dangerous, catastrophic and certaìnly stupid, However , it was appropriate for the politicai clima te of the era. In 1958, the liberal elements in the U.S. policy apparatus J strongly recommended civilian control of ali space activities* As such, the Department of Defense quickly killed "project Horizon," a military colony on the moon. This army project used some of the best minds in the nation and was far ahead of its time. It was the forerunner of NASÀ's moon landing. NASA carne into existence in 1958 and it was totally civilian control and insured peaceful uses of space exploration. They could not believe that an enemy could have other thoughts or not fit into our thinking or planning. A tomi e energy was taken f rom the U.S. Army and gìven to the Atomic Energy Commissione Again civilian control of the only weapon the EBEs would fear. Frorn the period 1947-1958, military R & D was greatly dis- organized, much prò & con maneuvering took place during this period. To ensure civilian control, Department of Defense organized ARPA, (Advanced Research Project Agency). There were continuous clashes between ARPA and the military services, especially army R&D, Finally in I960, ali U.S. Army R&D was pulled under one department (Office of the Chief of the Army R&D), ali personnel, the tech services, laboratories and installations and budget were concentrated under a Lt- Generai. The Golden Age of R&D (1958-1963) blossomed. However, army R&D had to work within the framework of civilian control of space efforts, opposition of Department of Defense, adverse policy guidance, and the animosity of CIA-Department of State. As a result, R&D data, stemming from areas "out of this world" had to be carefully € hidden and the Information kept among a select few. Great efforts were made to bring large industry and select laboratori ies into the army R&D fold. Although our government "debunked" such events as the Roswell UFO crash, the Soviets, namely Joseph Stalin took it serious, and he called in his top scientist to follow the sen- sational news, and alert their espionage agencies to gather or stesi any Information on the incidente Another important phase was German scientific developments , Army R&D organized operation "paper clip" and brought over Von Braun and his group. Many German scientific documents , even f lying saucer successes of the Germans were gather ed and brought to the United States . Sin e e we knew the inner workings of our government , both Congress and the Executive Branch, and the thinking of the people in the polìcy making positions, we were able to move ahead in our mission without obstruction, To this day nothing is known how the developments carne about for many startling discoverìes which are beginning to bear fruit. Soviet secrets, German advances end out of this world technology was a perfect mix to camouflage any operation. Now that our base of operation was firm and strong, we decided to marshall a preponderance of strength against which even the civilian control and left ieaning politicians could not prevali. The partner s that we sought and gather ed were U.S. industry, a strong laboratory supporta and many leading universities . 7 The top 25 Industries on the Fortune 500 list were con- tacted and meetings were arranged with their board of directors, top personnel, with the Chief of Army Research and Development, Our laboratories were organized and strengthened whereby they were furnished ampie funds to hire top talent. In addition, many foreign firms and scientists were brought into the fold. Industry's response was outstanding. Proposals submitted were well presented, thorough and along the lines which we wanted. Our laboratories began to function with a well-rounded prof essionalisrru Even the highly respected Bell Laboratory was brought into the fold. Universitìes played an important role* This powerfui array was unbeatable. They were the world's best and trusted our approach and guidance. And so began an array of ,developments such as the world had never seen, Our guiding force was national security and preservation of our way of life. Among the most outstanding were: CONQUEST OF DARKNESS - IMAGE INTENSIFIERS They were called night vìewing devices or army night vision, The night vision laboratory at Ft. Belvoir, Virginia, was organi- zed* German infrared technology was made available to them,as well as cascade image tubes, Electronic multipliers (mìcro- channel plates and etched fìber optics. Information gathered at the Roswell Crash was fed into the system, Forty-eight U.S. industries participated in the developrnent. The Night Viewing Lab (NVL) could never have been as successful without their contributìon* 6 FIBER OF TICS At the Roswell Crash, what was thought to be broken wiring harnesses was found. But it was noted that each of the broken ends emitted a different color. There was no wiring in the saucer. The color emittìng was from a type of fiber optics. Bell Labs was in the forefront and from this carne the greatest advancement in comxnunication that the world has ever seen. SUPER TENACITY FIBERS In the 1960 's we began to look for fibers for flak jackets, parachutes and other military items . We had found a single strand of fiber that the sharpest razor could not cut and it could not be broken. We got interested and began to studv spider sìlks , with the goal of constructing super tenaci ty fibers . The spider silks starts as a soluble protein in one of the spxders abdominal giands. As it extruded it passes through a tubular duct ori its way to the spinnerettes , This narrow tube forces ali the protein molecules to align in the same direction, turning it into a solid, rod-like quasi-crystalline thread. A single strand would have to be nearly 50 miles long before breaking under its own weight and a thread of danglìng silk stretching around the world would weigh 15 ounces. Monsanto is trying to mass produce a spider silk protein from a gene cloned by U.S. Army researchers, the University of Wyoming and Dow Corning are continuing to learn how to clone it. Cross- stìtched fibers made possible stealth technology and thousands of civilian aircraft are almost totally of composite manufacture- ? METALS - MOLECU LAR ALIGNMENT Reports from our laboratories on a piece of metal from Roswell showed the molecules/atoms had been aìigned, this align- ment created an incredible hardness, whereby it could not be scratched, bent, dented and repelled cosmìc action and radia- tici, although it was paper thin* Since CRD thought this discovery could be bigger than Los Alamos, a special team was organized to investigate ali possibilitìes . We found many precious gems and crystals had similar properties. A different alignment would allow radiation to pass through or make the element transparent . Up until 1963 or even 1993 we have not been able to solve this problem. It would make possible space vehicels of great strength, but light as a feather. FLUID AMPLIFICATICI This control of streams by other streams eliminated the need for mechanical moving parts- Some of our universities , industriai laboratories and our seven government laboratories provided the basic development foundation. In October 1963, a fluid ampli f ication symposium was held at Harry Diamond Laboratories. Thìrty four papers were prepared and presented by six universities. In the audience were representatives of 150 companies and universities, It was believed that this technology was involved in the guidance and propulsion of UFO's. The heart pump carne into being because of this technology. /- TRANSISTORS AND INTEGRATED CIRCUITS We had in our possessìon a transistor with hair-like wires and leads, and a chip in a stack of thin, unìformly shaped wafer- like components. These formed complete electrical circuits, and developed irvto the micromodule concept. h CRD said it would take 50 years to develop the transistor and 200 years to develop the chip. It carne in a short span of five years* Dr. Herman Oberth said, "we have been helped by people frorn outer- space." The " applied engineering" made possible to achieve ruggedness, greater reliability, increased operating speed and designs whìch take advantage of automatic production methods. This led to today ' s supercomputers . Progressively , in 1959 minìaturization of circuìts began; in 1960 subminiaturìzation; in 1961, advanced circuitry techniques and microminiaturìzation ; and in 1962 micrornodules . H.A. R.P* During the period we began what was called a high altitude research project. We worked closely with the Canadians. They showed us how an electronic device, encapsulated could be fired at very high velocity into a concrete wall (several thousand G's) and stili come cut and be operative. We could fire a con- ventional gun into space. One naval 16-ìnch gun was welded in prolongation to another naval 16-inch gun. It fired vertically into space and with the appropriate encapsulated electronic devices on the projectile put it in orbit in space. Many use- ful gains could have come from this, front peaceful orbits of // communication satellites, to spy satellites and ìon emitting electronic devices which could destroy other electronic devices. There was much resistance to this approach and the gains were negated by NASA, DARPA and policy overrìdes of civilian control. This relatively simpie approach was not supported and the ensuing cost was in the billìons to put electronic devices into orbit by sophisticated expensive means . PSY CHO- CHEMI CALS There has been much written on abductions whereby the abduetee loses ali track of time* This was no great advance- ment on the part of extraterrestrials , Vie perfected psycho- chemical gases and drugs in the early I960 r s . The label was "a painless way to win the war." There was a movie made, whereby, a cat after being administered some of these non-lethal drugs, jumps ali over the cage to get away from a mouse* Tests on men also showed where soldiers literaìly fell apart at driìl. A brigadier general was given a 4% dose in a cup of coffee and at a briefing he forgot what he carne to report on. We were told to halt ali such experiments, but some Chemicals and drugs were permitted to remaìn in our inventory. In addition, a politicai decision was made to do away with biologicai weapons experiments. To an extent we obeyed. LASERS Some help and a technical basis carne from Boswell on " light /* amplication through simulated emìssion of radiation , " Beginning in 1958, a surge of activìty began sin ce the pre- diction of laser feasibility- Practical application of the principle of laser feasibility ìncluded communìcation , sur- ve illance , illumina tion , power transmission , data processing, guidance control and medicai uses. We felt this was the EBE's method of cominunication over vast distances in space • In later years they applied laser surgery in the mutilatìon of animals. So advanced was the ir technigue that they did not cut through tissue cells. Cataract removal and surgical methods were our contribution. Eye surgery was made possible, i.e. torn retinas f growth of blood vessels in eyes, and glucoma. Also, it made possible - tumors , removal of large benign growths ; ear surgery, throat surgery, prostate surgery, urinary stane removal; heart surgery, migraine headache treatment, remove stains from skin; and even hair transplants. PURPOSE OF R & D The prupose of our activities were to guarantee a superior competitive position for our army. Given the superior data by the accidental event at Roswell we reduced scientific data to a definite development to fulfill a military require- ment, We never quibbled over who discovered or invented a development, The feeling was if a discovery was adapted to a concrete development we would ali be ahead in the game and the nation would benefit* (3 It must be keptìn mirici that the extraterrestrials never gave us a thing. NoT one scientific development or lead ever carne voluntarily from them. We didn ' t expect any more than was garnered by accident. We vere fortunate that 1958-1963 was an era of awakening . The leadership, talent and funds were ava il ab le to take advantage of what we found in order to proceed into a new scientific a gè . Results were : Ima gè Intensifiers Fiber Optics ( communication ) Super Tenacity Fibers Lasers Metals -molecular Alìgnment ( Titanium) Fluid Amplifica tion Integrated Circuit s Minia turiz a tion Subminia tur ìz a tion Microminiaturization (Advanced Circuitry) 1961 Micromodules 1962 H.A.R.P.

They didn't exist as an enemy. This was known as the " Fig Leaf Policy." The sarne can be said of national policy on UFO ' s . Although the Soviet s threatened our existence, they were not considered as enemies _ The same attitude prevailed toward UFOs in face of the f ollowing acts and activitìes- Reconnaìssance of our installations ; tampering with earth's environment and food supplies; abducting humans at will and taking fluid and tìssue samples; mutilations of cattle and other animals; spying on our atomic installations; hindering missile and space equipment testing; hampering our military deterrent and nuclear deterrent; halting and interfering with exploration of moon and mars; causing crashes of axrcraft and casualties among military personnel; and tampering with human and animai genetics- in view of the above we must ask, "will they fight a war as we óo , or will they attack in a more insidious manner on a different level? Folklore and history going back to the great /? civilizations of the Sumerians teli us that the EBEs were most advanced in the studies and manipulations of DNAs . They were adroit in cloning. We believed that the beings of the Boswell crash were clones . The Sumerians called theiti IGIGIs . They were used to ferry the "Gods" to earth and continuousìy stayed in sub space and ci rei ed the globe-earth. Abductions of human s and animai mutations of tissue e lo se to that of human s were taken by the IGIGIs . Our super computers allowed us to find the "AIDS" virus. It was discovered to be a living entity in itself and attached itself to human cells. The mutilations reached their height in the mid-1970 r s. They registered in the thousands. The "AIDS" scourge appeared in 1981. They once threatened to wipe out mankind. Is this their new insidious approach? A serious food for thought. JUST IH CASE - STAR WARS We needed an advance base on the moon, but this project was cancelled on us by the Department of Defense, But, since the security of the nation was uppermost, we continued our guest, Studies on strengthening ali parts of the human body, rnuscles, bone, braìn, etc. , so man could travel (or fight) in space continued. Ali phases of atomic energy proceed at fast pace for heat, power, propulsìon, fresh water production as well as weapons of destruction continued. We had an atomic bomb the size of a football, a 280mm artillery shell, and huge megaton bombs- Portable nuclear power plants, a plant 6'x6'x6 r which could be put in the ground and function for /6 20 years unattended, Nuclear propulsion systems, irradiateci f oods i nuclear disposatale of waste, applications to medicai needs , and disposai of human excrement and sludge, and even how the human could restructure and sustain itself without food. Another important project was the use of brain waves for guidance and bodily cures . In the destructive area, laser was a weapon that could blind in a split second flash. The most frightening and destructive was (DEW) Directed Energy Weapons . A technological revolution was taking place in military weaponry- These directed energy technologies included lasers, radio frequency weapons, high powered microwave and particle beams . The IGIGIs must know that a DEW weapon is transmitted to the target at 300,000 kilometers per second or zero flight tìme. Problems of trajectory and lead are eliminate^. Targets become thermally overloaded causing the irradiated surface to weaken and melt. The energy enters the UFO and explodes from within. The energy can surround the target with an intense radiation fìeld that can induce lethal voltages and currents into electrical systems, In space applications ( exoatrnospheric )a particle beam propagates well, in ( endoatmospheric } it needs considerable help. A version of DEW could be a DNA bomb which could release intense electro-magnetic action and could be designed to alter or seriously affect genetic codes. This is a frightening thought which the IGIGIs must know. On the surface we may appear puny and inadequate in the face of UFO technology, but just perhaps, this is not the case. il We never proceeded on the premise that this enemy never existed and so "Star Wars" was born . THE SOVIET CONNECTION Gorbachev assured President Reagan that if an attack carne from outer space, they would join us to counter the threat. The Russians have Information on UFO-s which they are stili treating as top secret, This information is in the files of the KGB and GRU- They lost Phobos two years before we lost Observer in August 1963. They wanted to hit the Mars moon Phobos , with laser beams , but we obj ected and stopped them. There have been Roswell-type incidents in Russia and they have gathered and analyzed many items which originated with UFO's against their people and installations . These incidents and outer space events have been of great interest to their scientific community- They out-performed, and out- spent us in many space efforts and we should probe them to see if they had a golden age of R&D which could match ours and also was kept secret. 00NCLUSION .„„ Aithough the heart of this story appears to be the story of the army R&D effort and accomplishments during the period 1958-1963, the reai story is the people that made it happen. They carne from ali walks of life, were honed in battles, in the desert, on the mountains, in the rice paddies, the jungle and in the air and on the sea. They got to know themselves I» and assured victory in half of their battles, they learned to know the enemy well and vere victorious in a thousand battles and won the war. They brought back a fierce patriot- ism and love of country* Their grateful country entrusted them with ìts deepest secrets and they entered the highest levels of government, They learned the system and recognized their opponents. Again they won a thousand battles, as they had against the enemy from without. Another dangerous enemy. recognized by his actions lurked over the horizon and so the battle preparations began, Eventually and without fanfare these Americans retired from the scene and took on a far greater task - to educate their chiidren and grandchiìdren on how to improve, take and hold the world they had saved for them and that even an enemy from outer space could not prevali. ii THE BEGINNING On February 23, 194 2, I was inducted into the U.S. Army as a recruit. Two-hundred-f if ty of us left on a traìn from a small town in Western Pennsylvania (California, Pennsylvania) and were sent to the induction center at Indiantown Gap. There I was separated from my friends because I had made the top grada in an I,Q. test. I was sent to Edgewood Arsenal ; where 1 took basic training, and again was separated from my new found friends and kept on the cadre again, because of an I.Q. test. This established a pattern for the future, whereby many assignments were caused by I.Q. data on my record, This followed me through officer candidate school and even with Brìtish MI-19, in Sngland. Much happened in the ensuing 25 years, England, Nbrth Africa, Italy, Germany, Korea, Vietnam. It was my great and good fortune to be thrown in with and become dose to many great meri of the era. Often I was amazed at. meeting and being able to listen to and learn from giantsof great wisdom and intellect . Because of this I was able to analyze and put into proper perspective great events of the 20th century, among which was the perplexing and mysterious pz-oblem of UFO's and extraterrestrial beings and how they could affect our lives and world- 21 EVOLUTION FROM CRUDE COMPUTERS TO THE CHIP At Officer School in 1942 we had to learn the air defense problem. Toward the end of the course , before receiving our commissions, we had to take an examination. It was a three hour ordeal. The first hour was general artillery and air defense questions. The second hour was naathematìcs, and the third soiving the air defense problem- I breezed through the first hour in record time. The second hour I finished ali the math problems in half the time> The instructor ; a captain would wander through the class and would assist students having problems . He saw me sitting and not working. He carne over and said f "Having trouble soldier?" He wa^ surprised at my answer when I said, "No Sir, I am finished." He said, "It would n/t hurt to go over the ques- tions - " Maybe I shouldn't have said what I did, but being young and naìve, I said, "I don ' t have to sir- I answered them ali." He took my paper and placed his answer template over my answers. His pu2zled look explained his thoughts- I knew they were ali correct. The last hour was the most difficult. We were handed a sheet in which the four corners of our crude computer problenn solver were drawn in. We had to fili in the rest. In those days we had a contraptìon which we called Mickey Mouse Ears. Its two ears like sound receivers we pointed in the direction of an aircraft and it picked up the sound. Then we had a long tube about 8" in diameter and 12 T long. It was filled with lens, which had like a prism at xi both ends and two b inocular type eye pieces in the center, We moved the apparatus to try to pick up an incoming aircraft. The data in turn was fed to a computer type problem solver. It had a pear shaped cam around whìch a needle moved. This solved the prob- lem by mathematics (logarithm, sines & cosines). The data was fed to our fuze setters on the 90 mm guns and turned the guns toward the incoming aircraft. Crude but the best of its ti?tf£ - 194 2. I easily drew in cams, wìres, gears etc. connected the four corner s in about 15 minute s - The instructor was watching me . I look ed down pretending to study the drawing and check the wiring diagrams. The captain carne over, looked over my shoulder, and in a few minutes he took my paper and said, "You are excused soldier." He continued ; "I don' t know how you do it, but fine work . " I answeredi "Thank you sìr, but neither do I know how I do it, but it seems so easy." The next day at drill, I saw him talking to my tacticai officer. After the drill my tacticai officer carne up and said, "Soldier, frora now on you will be the company guidon bearer," I joined a 9 0mm BN at Camp Edwards , Mass., but was guickly pulied out, and sent to intelligence school at Camp Ritchie, Md. Promoted to lst Lt. and sent to Engiand and joined British M-19. I was given a top secret clearance & a cryptho-analysis clearance. 1 joined 5th Army in italy and was in charge of security and crypthographic clearances and oversaw ali of the equipment in the Rome area allied command headquarters . I personally guarded the plans for the invasion of southern Fra n ce and its ultra code secrets; and met Wìnston Churchill. I was granted additional clearance in Korea and the Far East %' Cornmand, and worked on our code telecon system, I was given "Eyes Only" access, at the NSC, of the White House. At the conclusion of my NSC tour, I was gìven command of a missile BN. During my short tour we went from tubes (some 3 1 tali) to chassis, which pouìd be easily changed, to cards and transistors. The data was fed to computers which contained oil filled data pots. Radars had become wonders of efficiency and missiles were reaching a spectacular stage- Ali this during an 18 month period. Then I became Special Assistant to the Chief of Arrny Research and Development, Lt. Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau. I became his chief confident and investigator * One of the most interesting phases of my life was when the General and I sat for hours in his office dis- cussing technical matters* If Edwin Teller could be called " father of the "H" bomb, Gen. Trudeau could be called the "Father of the ballistic missile" - Many of our most irnportant developments began during his tour as Chief of Arrny Research and Development- Many will second and attest to my view and conclusion. He started project Horizon - a military landing in the moon in 1959, I used to sit in the General' s office and we had lengthy dìs- cussions. During one such session we discussed transistors and chips, During i960 Gen, Trudeau gave a speech in which he said that, "During the last fifty years we had advanced more, scientifi- cally, than the combined years since the known history of man". The General then said, during one session, "Phil, you toìd me that in Rome you feit that you had been programmed, and ali of your plans succeeded. You never made a mistake and none of our soldiers were killed or installations damaged which was almost a miracle- And you discussed this with Pope Paul VI, 1 often wonder Phil, if we a,'* aren r t programmed? In front of us we had two chips. One brown and charred. (He had previously shown me thìs and two men were present}* Àlongsìde, we had another chip. Brand new, shiny and enclosed in plastic. On the piastìc in gold letters was written "North American Rockwell". The General continued, "The transìstor should have taken decades to evolve, the chip centuries. But, they are here in a short period of less than f ive years . He said, "I am a religious man Phil, but I have to wonder. You and I see these wonders almost daily, but we accept them and go about our business." I answered, "True, General, but as I look at these chips I have to wonder, in themseìves they are out of this world. They will change many facets of our daily lives, but there is one thing that bothers me. Computers will develop to an advanced degree; they will make possible gadgets and new types of machines and control mechanisms , but they are and will be only machines. But what will happen when the greatest computer ever created and can think (pointed to ray head) the braìn, with its power to store and analyze, intergrates with this chip* " I pìcked them up and held them, Will it be a blessing or a curse? The General took them. "I see your point Phil. Developments beyond our comprehension, space ships , space travel, possibly at the speed of thought and mechanical fabrications controlied by our brain. However, Phil, not in our lìfetime, but it will come and these chips are the beginning" . We went about our business, ICBMS, Anti-missile missiles, smart bombs , radars, computers, new control methods, etc. etc. Some tìme later, the General was on a trip, I often went in his office, pulled out proposals from industry and other studies and would work on them on the con fere nce table* One '1 T cloudy day, I cleared the table and placed the two chips on the tabie. I kept starìng at them. A violent thunder and lightnìng storni carne up. I kept looking at the North American Space division chip, It had a small open window with small wires, a copy of the old one * During each flash of lightning I imagined some irtovement of the small wires, especially when I concentrated mentally on it. When I picked it up, the plastic seemed warm. I thought my imagi- nation of something I wanted to see and happened. The storm passed and I put the chips in the cabinet* La ter , I told the General the story and said, M Sir, I think it was my irnagination and I wanted to believe it could happen. But, chips don't get warm. The General locked at me and said, "Perhaps yes, perhaps no; we are working on a mechanìsm or guidance device, brain wave controlied, which can control aircraft. Put your full story on paper and gìve it to me. No typing, just write Twenty five years later, I went through the same rìtual in which I used ali my powers of concentration during a violent Florida storm on someone very small and dear to me. The last bolt of lightnìng and thunder was so violent that ali the lights in the hospital went out , my trance broke , but f the equipment connected to the baby accelerated . The end result was that something happened- Perhaps it was again my irnagination and I wanted it to happen and so believe that it did . However, I will accept the end result . My beautiful, healthy , red-headed grandson, was cured of his condition and what remaìned, he outgrew. New, I will reveal for the first time how leads, guidance* material, and data from possibly extraterrestrìal , was used in the 25 development of serious undertakings , using the best of scientific minds and equipment and why this intelligence could not be released at the time. ifc NINE CLEARANCES ABOVE TOP SECRET During my military career at one time or another, I counted nine clearances above "Top Secret," granted to me. These included cryptographic, satellites, code and intercept, special operational clearances and the "Eyes Only" category of special White House (NSC) matters . They made available to me ali matters within the government which included "UFO" information. My colleagues of the NSC staff did not know of my special clearances, Only CD. Jackson, my superior, and the President's special assistant and President Eisenhower knew of the clearances. Later, I filled in Senator Strom Thurmond and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Hon. John A. McCormick. I was granted three operational clearances which could only evolve after granting of the other clearances. For example, one & two were granted after a lie detector test; three, four, five and six were what I called the "Masonic Ritual"; seven, eight and nine followed. These clearances vary from time to time, change, are dropped or added to. Soon after, I was placed on the U.S. Army General Staff Corp. and wore the green General Staff star emblem on my blouse or shirt pocket . The first and basic clearances were for data marked restricted, confidential and secret, After an FBI investigation, z7 force d the compilation of the Soviet a torni e shots in space with destroyed our satellites and wrote the reports on the Soviet anti-missile missile atomic tests «i sub-space. Details of these reports were entered into the system, but could not be reproduced; especially the added Information of the increased UFO activity and the subsequent destructìon by unknown forces of the Soviet compi ex where these test originated . To this day the destruction and subsequent loss of life of Soviet technicians is a mystery. We knew it long before the Soviet admitted the loss, I doubt that even of this late date if they could explain the destruction of the facìlity. With ali the reports and evidence we were never able to arrive at an iron-clad conclusion. Strange ion emissions were detected f rom space just before the explosion and destruction. (We often discussed if a similar fate awaited us if we detonated atomic bombs in space) . We discovered that radiation effeets from atomic weapons fired in space are far reachìng and extremely damagìng to electronìc devices and have almost immediate fatai effect on human life, We knew the dangers of unhìndered radiation in the vacuum of space. Extensìve studìes had been done on the effeets of radiation on a soldier, equipment and supplies in an atomic war, (Perhaps the liberals in our government saved us since we could not fire atomìcs into space because of the test treaty with the USSR) . The Soviets detonated a monster bomb over the Pacific Ocean, It was reported to be 100 megatons (actually 60} . It knocked out 6 tir*?: ss; "3 i ali our Communications in the Pacific, Again, intense UFO activity. The Soviets never fìred another, (Why? We should ask them) . Sirice we have never detonateci such a bomb, we do not have any data or the effects of this size weapon, (Pexhaps the EBEs (Extra Terrestrial Biological entìties) dìd.) Although we knew of some the effects we do not know the actual data and findings. As explained to me by Major General Dale Smith of Strategie Air Command, "We e anno t scale up a .22 caliber shot to give us the effect of a 10,000 bomb. Neither can we scale up a small atomic blast to show us the effects of a 60 megaton blast . " In Army R&D, I had the title of Chief of Foreign Technology Division, I received ali reports on foreign technology which included foreign beings and events - those not of this world. I often headed teams of U.S. scìentists, German scientist (Von Braun's group) and U.S. technicians. In the foreign technology divìsion I set up what I called n My nut file" - every wild eyed inventor or theorist that carne or wrote to us was lìstened to, the promising ones were explored. Most were "nutty, " bue the effort was worth it Decause every so often we uncovered a gem. I was always the team chief and made ali decisions , No one except the Generai knew of my clearances. It was thought that my being team chief resulted only from my closeness with the General as his special assistant. However, my authority did derive from his position as Chief of Army R&D. Industry soon learned that I was his special representative and my decisions stood. ■-> ? I receìved a piece of informai: ion that a group of industri al ists in a northeast state were on the verge of a break - through. They claimed that they were on the verge of a beyond the "state-of -the-art n discovery. This was the alignment of atoms or molecules in steel . We knew that this has been done, but didn't know how it was done. We had a sample. A small piece. The report read it was found in the Western U.S. desert , Believed to be from an UFO (not conclusive) . Under certain conditions it would light up. Although beyond our state of the art alignment of atoms in a paper thin sheet of steel would give it such strength that it was beyond our imagination. It would make a spaceship " light as a feather' 1 but of such strength that it would be collision proof and no debris in space could harm or even dent it. Ali our weapons would be obsolete. Radiation or cosmic rays could not penetrate the skin. However, a different alignment would allow the passing of cosmic rays or radiation and make possible a propulsion system of such force that space travel would be simplified, and at speeds beyond our comprehensìon. Another alignment, and stili retaining its great strength, would make the steel or aluminum transparent. Conclusions for guidance made for Chief of U.S. Army R&D were mainly from R&D laboratories . There was strong evidence that molecules-atoms were aligned. When I briefed the General, his orders were, "Get your team together, go visit them, if there is any breakthrough in 3 o alìgnment we will take it over and fund the project- This could be foìgger than Los Alamos . ,r I lef t the next day, At the conf e r enee I listened carefully. My team asked many questions. They showed us an iron bar and a tunnel -like apparatus which they claimed aligned the atoms. Their chief engineer explained the theory and process . That night after dinner, I asked the head German scientist to take a walk with me.. 1 asked him, "Teli me your thoughts, Hans . u His answers was, "If what they say is true, I will have to unlearn everything I have ever learned and start over." He was surprised by my answer when I said, "Hans, someday you may have to . " He stopped walkìng and looked at me and said, " I'il remember what you said. " The next morning I spoke for the first time and said, "Gentlemen, if you consent, we will pay ali expenses and arrange for you to carry on your experiments at Lincoln Laboratories. If our lab recommends further experiments we will fund the project. 11 The tests were inconciusive, but we continued our quest into the mystery since we knew it was possible , This alignment of molecules-atoms project was carried on to perfect the skìn of the future space ship. But, it was also important in a space suit or skin of a human, We felt that for prolonged space travel, the human skin atoms would need a different alignment to protect vita! organs . This was possible, but the state of the art was beyond us. But we kept searching because the future of the homo-sapiens might be at stake . Some •3/ evìdence carne from the skin of some sort of being in a photograph sent to us, badly burnt and decomposed. Nat 100% conclusive although with many unknown biological f actors . Scientìf ically and from a medicai point of view, unexplainable . Subsequent reports of astronauts in space for prolonged periods showed we were not ready for space travel. (NEWSPAPER ARTICLE) THE WASHINGTON POST JULY 25, 1992 ASTRONAUTS LOST 25% OF MUSCLE MASS: Shuttle-test results surprise scientists A space biology mission f lown last year aboard the shuttle Columbia, whìch used astronauts as guinea-pigs, has revealed unexpectedly dramatic effects of weightlessness on the human body, researchers reported Fri day . The effects included a severe loss of muscle tissue, unexpected bìood-pressure irregularities and reduced abili ty to burn stored fat for energy. The findings could mean that extended space travel will be more difficult for humans than previously thought, scientists said at a NASA briefing Friday, and only more biomedicai research in orbit will resolve the question. Kenneth Raìdwin, a physiologist from the University of California, Irvine, reported "a significant and dramatic ,r reduction of 25 percent of the muscle mass in weight-bearing muscles such as calves and thighs . Muscle loss had been predicted, but not that nvuch. Recovery time was also unexpectedly long. The crew had restored only half the muscle mass after being on the ground for a time equal to the flight: nìne days . The muscles also showed a decline in their ability to burn fat for energy, he said. This forced them to rely on carbohydrates , which the body has a limited capacity to store. As a result , future crews "will need to increase their early intake of carbohydrates," he said, Columbia was -the first U.S. bio-medicai flight since 1974, and the first in the world dedìcated to comprehensive research on physiological changes in weightlessness . 10 3 2-, Twice while I was in command of mìssile units, the radar picked up and locked on objects traveling and accelerating over 3 000 mph once in New Mexico in 1957 and once in Germany in 1958. On both occasions, I was instructed to destroy the tape recordings and forget the incidents. However, I did not destroy the 1957 tape. During my R&D days, radio transmissions were recorded from outer space. They were organi zed and orderly. No the disorganized space noise we tried to answer, but without success, and were never able to decode the transmissions or estabi ish contact. Information carne from the super secret National Security Àgency . Our conclusion on UFO;'s was that they exìsted. We had reports of objects from a mother ship and we believe what was recovered were parts of sphere type probes. Usually four or five of these carne from every saucer. They are for protection and reconnaissance . Our radar images of formations probably are these probes surrounding one or two flying saucers , They dissolve in a transparent alignment of atoms, Our radar pass through; they disappear from our sight, and are gathered into the mother ship and are realigned for space trave!. We estimated that our judgement was 75% accurate {based on fact) , 25% questionable . 11 3? ROSWELL - FA CT OR FANCY? I was visited by two New Mexico State Felice in my headquarters - They had arrested one of my sergeants. The road leading to Red Canyon was through a mountain range and was hilly, full of curves and treacherous. The Sergeant had been drinking and decided he was going to push over with his car ali the road signs denoting curves, hills, speed limits, etc* I was told in case of an accìdent, and there was no highway sign, the State would be liable* In an agreement with the State , ali soldiers arrested by civil authorities would be turned over to the military. I assured the state troopers that the sergeant would appear before the civil court, pay his fines and damages; then he would be dealt military justice* It was close to noon. I invited the two troopers to lunch and to tour the range and witness a missile firing. They accepted- During the missile firing I explained the function of my radars and explained the power could explode a flash bulb in the vicinity. I mentioned that the radars had "locked ori" an object traveling over 3000 miles an hour. They asked ìf it was an UFO. I answered that I didn't know, but my tapes showed it was the size of a large aircraft. The conversatìon turned to the UFO crash of 1947. I told them I would like to tour the site of the crash, They offered to be roy guides. 31 The subsequent tour, meeting with the Sheriff r s office, the newspaper editor, and the people was most convincing. Their presence as my guides opened up many tìoors, These were down to earth people and not prone to exaggeration. In every case I invited the people I taìked to, to be my guest at lunch and witness a missile firing. Most accepted since my base was close by. I was convinced that a UFO had crashed in the vicinity and thìs fact had a profound influence on my future life and many of my actions and activities.

The members that this was painted on by the way , those symbols were pink and purple . . . lavender . FIBER OPTICS OOLOR TRANSMITTING FIBERS No wiring, as we utilize, was found in the crashed craft at Roswell. However, a harness type system was dìscovered* At 3^ \ first, it appeared to be a bundle of wires. They had broken loose fronì a type of control panel. The ends of the wires (about twelve) whicb appeared to be frayed, were intermittentìy , emitting brìght colors; upon examìnation it was found they were not wires, but appeared to be glass or transparent plastic tubes. They could not be broken or cut and thought to be a quartz type composi tion * A conclusioni was reached that through them was transmitted different electro or magnetic wave lengths which accounted for the various colors. A pulsing current was transmitted through the tubes . They gave the appearance of earthly fibers, so a descrìptive terms was applied "Optical Fibers"- In reality they were optical tubes- Thìs evolved into what is now known as "Fiber Optics" - The tubes led to a type of junction box, where certain fibers separated, and went to mechanism which acknowledged the color (wave length) and would be activated* How this was done was not known. No clear defìnìtion was made of the power source, type of power or how the message was carried. Fiber Optics began its gìant step forward (1947-1968) almost (20) twenty years after the fiber harness was found and analyzed, 1993 We know that what evolved. Almost the whole future of communication revolves around the new technology that usurped wave guides- That technology is communication by means of light, waves traveìing through transparent Optical Fibers, and which is now recognized as the best and most efficient known to man, 3 6 QUOTE: If we knew ìt could be done, we could do it. ILLUMINATICI The craf t inside was illuminated by a yellow-greenish light. The light appeared to emit from solid metal r possibly a variation of the atom aìignment within the structure members of the craft. This was discovered early from small pieces* When a light was applied at one end the whole piece would light up and glow. This was thought to be a variation of the fiber optic tubes. It is not known if the source of the yellow- greenish light or glow was ever found. CRASH AT CORONA In 1957, 1171 sightìngs; from October to December.; 701 sightings were attributed to Sputnik . My radars were accurate, I could not pick up Sputnik. I had to put a 12 M xl2 if 90% angle on my R-Cat and drones to get 1 square mtr. radar reflection, object east to west over 3,000 mph. My radars were functioning and locked on, My tapes verified fact. I could even read altìtude. In 1957 while in command of the Army ' s Missile Firìng Range at Red Canyon, New Mexico, part of the White Sands Provig Grounds , I carne up against a most perplexing problem which 1 was not competent to answer or solve, There had been much specu- lation that UFOs engagé in time travel. I later discussed this with Germani scientists and they were of the opinion that this was fact - the UFOs terrific acceleration and flashy dis- appearance and appearance is caused by exit and entry into a time d ime n sion . s> / The theory has been put forth that there was a crash in the Roswell area in 1957. Some scientìsts cìaim that there may have been two saucers collide in 1947. One landed at Roswell. The debris frorn the second crash was found at the Brazel Ranch- An interesting version which I advance is that the two UFOs were entering our tìme zone at the same instant, they collided, One went on to crash at Roswell, the other was damaged and debris fell into our time zone, It accelerated at terrific speed, exceeding its own limits, and fell, just west of Red Canyon, in the White Sands area, but it had gained 10 years, and crashed in 1957. I had picked up the trajectory on my radar screens, but did not report it since a few days before I had reported some- thing travelling 3,000 mph, and I was told to forget about it* I called White Sands and reported I had lost a R- CAT (radio con- trolied small target planes). They reported a trajectory, and it matched the one I had. picked up earlìer. I flew over the area the next day and saw sornething metallic and round on the ground at an angle. (My R-CATS were red). My pilot in the smail army piane asked what 1 thought it was . I answered, posssi^ bly a booster from our missiles or a piece of an exploded. missile. I wasn't too ìnterested in UFOs at the tìme* I was known as a serious commander and a good intelligence officer, and did not care to get involved in such reporting. If I would have made an issue of the incident, I surely would have been ordered to" forget it" or be typed a kook. I was on orders to take command of a combat missile battalion going to Germany, but ?$ the problem was not going to go away, even if I thought dis- cretion was the better part of valor, I flew over the area again, in a few days and the site was swarming with activity* I ha ve not seriously considered tìme or dimensionai travel which is another story, I have seen little evidence of this, but do not rule it out, This is the arena for the future • 3} THE SOVIET-RUSSIAN CONNECTION In 1947, Stalin called in his top scìentists after "The e Sensational News generateci by the captare of a Saucer that purportedly had crashed near Roswell. The scientìsts he called were: 1. Designer of Soviet Military Rockets and Launchers {Sputnik in 1975) Chief Scientist - Li quid Fuel Rockets Presìdent-USSR Academy of Scientist Nuclear Physicist Yuri Gagarin - Astronaut The iead has come from Soviet spies in New Mexico, Our atomìc installatìons were in the area, and Soviet agents were very ac ti ve. The Russians have obtained and utilized materiale from UFOs. They also have much Information which is stili top secret and is in the files of the KGB, GRU and Airforce. They also had progressed rapidly in developments on "new" weapons, rocket propulsione nuclear propulsione GEO-magnetism and effeets of EMP on satellites, ballistic missiles and Communications. A most interesting angle would be to establish contact ( Russian- Committee of Congress) on any Information that they obtained on the Roswell crash or scientific achievements from such data. Some of the items found and analyzed by the Russians possess a simìlarity of items gathered in the United States. Others closely resemble material collected by the U.S. Army soon after the crash . f In 1993 I thought it would be most interesting if I could find my Russian counterpart and dìscover if they did much R&D frorn out of this world dìscoverìes, secretly and hidden as we had done. I asked an old acquaintenance to ask a KGB General this question. He did- The answer was, yes * They dìd much R&D, but it stili ìs held top secret by the KGB and GRU. If I asked questions I wouldn't last long* I understand what you are looking for , but cannot help you ìcj-p yuu. ITEMS AND DATA FROM UFQs FOUND IN USSR Silvery - looking like a tube or celiar (simiiar item found in the United States) Found in 1975, analyzed in 1985 Alloy of some rare elements 67% Cesium - has photoelectric properties most electropositive element . 10% Lanthanuni - one of rare earth metals Rare earth element Some Neodymium - used f or coloring glass violet How fused together a mystery.

THE GOLDEN AGE OF RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT On Aprii 1, 1958, General Arthur G* Trudeau, became Chief of Army R & D. I was at the tìme in command of the 71st Missile BN r in Germany, and had received ortìers to become Inspector General of the 7th Army. General Trudeau carne to Germany on a visit and I met him in Heidelburg. He inguired into rny status and let me know I would be assigned to his staff upon my return to the states. During 19 93, 1 received from the Army Office of R & D a report declassified from secret, on the history of R & D. Army R & D unti! 1958 carne under Logistics, which was a secondary mission to them. In I960, ali the technical service, laboratories etc. were ali gathered under one head, the Office of R & D ( This included the entire R & D budget. The Chief was Lt. General Arthur G- Trudeau. I also found out that a jeep loaded wìth debris from the crashed UFO, and driven by a CI C agent, had disappeared. Those unf amiliar w-ith the system would tend to belle ve this assumption, CI C is not a separate entity. It has no command function and its operational orders come from the AC of SG-2, or Chief of Intelligence- Debris as importar t as in this find, would go through intelligence operational channels to the Pentagon. Here the Chief of Intelligence would turn the debris over to R & D. Since at the time R & D was poorly , -^i ?•"> organized and under Logistica AC of S, G-4» it surely got lost in the shuffle, since there was no organization or driving force pushing it ahead* I believe this was most fortunate for the newly organized Army R & D. I inherited these files for Army R & D and was able to find a gold mine of items and accompanyìng reports. We didn't know for certaìn what we had f but fortunately with General Trudeau ' s f oresight and authority we were able to give many marvelous developments a push into the future, I joined OCRD in early 1960. General Trudeau created the foreìgn technology division of which I became its chief. He wanted me to have every clearance that he carried in addi^ tion to being bis special assistant and I was appointed to the U, S • Army General Staff Corps . My duties as Chief of the Foreign Technology Division were to keep track of: 1- Foreign development of this world. (Armaments) 2. Foreign intelligence and developments not of this world (UFO's and development projects) 3. Act as interim project officer on select R & D projects ( Helicopters , anti-missile missile conventional weapons etc. ) 4* Ali other duties as assìgned as special assistant to the CRD U«S. Army (Budget, Gorilla war farei liaison with Congress etc, ) However, there was one overriding and encompassing factor National Security. 1» 3, and 4 fell into what we called normal activities. But No. 2 was another mattar. Many experts felt we were helpless in the face of a super alien technology, We never felt this way and went to work with what we knew and if moved ahead to protect our country and maybe the world, JUST IN CASE* We can look back where 1958-196^ became the golden years of research and development. I have previously covered transistors, chips, computers, night viewing devices, super tenacity fibers, rrtetals, guidance systems and study of our possible adversaries anatomy. In addition we jumped far and high during early stages of missile development - inertial guidance motors , materials , Communications, photography etc* and whole systems were born : 1.

This led into looking into project magnet and (EMF) electro- magnetìc field which travels with solar winds interplanetary . We used physics studies of (MHD) Magnetohydrodynamìcs . In 1968, James E. McDonald said, "There are so many instances in which close passage of an unidentified flying object led to radio and TV disturbances , that this particular mode of electromagnetìc effect of UFO's seems incontrovertible. There is perhaps enough evidence pointing toward strong magnetic fields around it leaves some UFO's that one might hypothesÌ2e a mechanism whereby a UFO mìght inadverently trigger a power outage (Northeast blackout Nov* 9, '65) 15 March 1954, Wilber Smith start ed (project magnet ) . Whether the phenomena be due to naturai magnetic causes, or alien vehicles, there would probably be associated with a sighting some magnetic or radio noise disturbance. Also there is a possibility of Gamma radiation being associated with such phenomena. It has been suggested by some mathematicians that gravity waves may exist in reality. While we know practically nothìng of such waves in nature, nevertheless , if the possibiiity exists, flying saucer phenomena, being largely an unknown field, might be a good place to look for such waves, During one of our sessione, the Chief of Army R & D Lt. General Trudeau , showed me a charred chip ( integrated circuit), possibly from an UFO, Our estimates were without this knowledge. It would have taken us 200 years to pass from tubes to transìstors to chips . The mystery of the top secret White House report Majìc stili rema in s a Ma jic/ Secret of the unknown - Although I was cleared, I never saw the report in this form at the NSC {White House). However f the many briefings couìd add up to a sìmilar conclusion with some additions and changes, Consistent with our mission at Army Research and Develop- ment r we were doing much work on electro-magnetic interference (EMI), cosmic energy and the phenomena of gravity. Add magnetic action and they were ali inter-related, I left the arena, but often wondered what strides we were making. During the latter part of 1990, Frank Wright, the head of the Palm Beach Round Table Forum called and invited me to be a guest at a lecture by Dr. Edward Teìler, often called the father of the H-Bomb, 1 was also invited to the reception after the talk, Dr. Teller's lecture concerned SDÌ (Star Wars ) . I was sitting in the audience when the host, Frank Wright , stood up f'7 and he said, "Phil, I want you to ask Dr. Teller the last question." Dr . Teller has injured his hip and was sitting on a srnall t.able. I went to the microphone on the rìght side of the podiunu 1 asked the following , "Dr . Teller, you know the effects of the ion ernissions frorn the Soviet monster bomb explosion a few years ago* What bothers me is, that after ali these years, have we reached the poìnt whereby we can harden circuitry in the SDÌ electrìcal components against such an emission?" When he heard the question, he sort of spun to face me. He realized this was not an ordinary question, but frorn one with knowledge on the subject. Soon he seemed to get a look of recognition, since he had seen me with General Trudeau. His answer was, "Colonel, I hate to answer that question with a yes or no, but here it is . We ere acutely aware of the problem, but have not solved it." Later we met at the reception and discussed old tiroes. However, I had my answer. In thirty years we had advanced very little. The effects of electro-magnetic inter- ference, radia t ion , cosmic action and control of gravi ty by alignment of moiecules-atoms , or by any other means was stili many years away, (Perhaps we will get another windfall frorn outer space). In 1972 Dr. Herman Oberth said "Today we cannot produce the machines that fly as UFO's do, They are flying by means of artifical fields of gravity. This would explain the sudden changes of directions. This hypothesis would also explain the i8 piling up of these disks into a cylindrical or cigar-shaped mothership upon leaving the earth, because in this fashion only one field of gravity would be required for eli disks. They produce high-tension electric charges in order to push the air out of their path.*.and strong magnetic fields influenced the ìonised air at higher altitudes - * . This would explain their luminosi ty ... Secondly , ìt would explain the noiselessness of UFO flight. Finally this assumption also explains the strong electrical and magnetic effects sornetìines, but not always, observed in the vicinity of UFO's." So important was the phenornena of EMP that the Department of Defense has been simulating EMP to determine how to protect circuitry in its planes, tanks, missiles and ships from being disabled by it . So important was this research that EMP generators were established at Harry Diamond Laboratories in Woodbridge (we knew that a 60 megaton bomb exploding over minuteman silos EMP would turn the missile in the silo and render it non-operational) . In successive years the Navy set up EMP Empress I EMP Simulator in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay and Empress II is projected* The Army has EMP simulators at Redstone Arsenal , Ala. and White Sands Missile Range, N.M. Defense nuclear agency has an EMP simulator at Kirkland Air Force Base, N.M. and the Navy at China Lake , California. 7 FROM OUTER SPACE TO EARTHLY RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT While I was Chief cf Foreìgn Technology Division, in the Office of Chief of Army R & D, I previously mentioned that I kept what ì labeled my "Nut " file - Ali new informa tion , no matter f rom what source, was passed in to me. The ir Nut" file was a four drawer file cabinet. Because of the classif ication of the UFO material which zoomed in and cut of the top drawer, the safety of the material required a combination type , dial look. The method I aiways used in intelligence was that the reports were accurate as reported and the burden to prove them wrong was on me, Most ali intelligence officers worked opposite from my technique. They oper- ated on the premise that the reports were wrong or inaccurate and their analysis had to prove them correct or they were discarded. I aiways had something to work with. My method made for some interest- ing analyses, especially when I had to present my findings to a brillìant mind such as that possessed by Lt. General Arthur G. Trudeau, Chief of Army R & D and former head of U. s . Army Intelli- gente. I will re-create for the reader, the three most import ant findings I presented to the General on the UFO material. 1. The piece of metal? supposedly from an exploded UFO, which was of a hardness and strength beyond our "state of the art" and whose atoms or molecules were aligned. ■9- so 2. The photograph and findings on the supposedly alien bodies , 3. The chip ( semi-conductor ) which supposedly carne from no- where, but can revolutionize the world, our way of life and space travel. THE XNCREDIBLE HARD METAL ? The piece of paper-thin metal? and a piece of x-ray resistant cloth was reported to have been picked up in New Mexico from the fragments of an UFO which exploded* I took it from a file 13 years after it was picked up, Accompanying reports stated that there appeared to be an alignment of molecules-atoms , since there was a dense mass- X-rays or cosmìc rays could not pass through it, Kow- e ver , ano ther simìlar alignment like a diamond would allow x-rays or cosmic rays to pass freely and be transparent- Both would be ideai for space ship construction, Cosmic action and radiation could be shielded out or allowed to pass- Such a dìscovery could lead to a cosmic engine and also shield space travelers from many life endangering situations and eventualitìes , Aligned atom masses could create gravìtational fields. Military advantages are obvìous and too numerous to list- We also had a cloth-like woven fiber shiny piece of fabric of great strength and resilence, CAUTIQN . At face value these reports imply that the piece of metal and fabric carne from an UFO which exploded. We know that explosions can do extraordinary things. An atomic explosion drove e piece of Straw into a tree* I commanded the Army Missile Firing Range at Red Canyon in New Mexico in 1957, Missiles often got away from us, One landed hundreds of miles away in Mexico, -10- 57 We had a destruct button and couìd detonate an errant missile- These parts vere strewn ali over the desert ss were parts of missiles from white sands and atomic tests in Nevada* It is possible that such an explosion could condition a piece of the missile skìn to be like our piece of evidence and the hot, dry desert environment would further align or condition the mass. Nature aligns atoms. X-rays and cosrnic rays will pass through a diamond or other precious stones* The rays will not pass through a synthetic precious stone- A strand of a web strung by a spider can be stretched for miles before breaking. A strand around the world will only weigh about a lb. The moìecule-atoms are aligned as the spider spins the strand. The quest also began for super- tenacity fibers, REGDMMENDATIQN . It is apparent that enough evidence exists that aligning of molecules-atoms in metal and other substances is a reality, but at the moment beyond our "state of the art" whether our evidence carne from outer space, man made , or from nature is not important. What is important is that alignment of molecule-atoms is possible. So important are the advantages that we must continue our guest, and pursue any avenue that leads to this great breakthrough and continue to finance any approach that looks promising. This could be a greater dìs- covery than the a tornio bomb * PHOTOGRAPHS AND MEDI CAL REPORTS ON A BEING FROM OUTER SPACE? The photographs in my files showed a being about 4 1 tali. The body seemed decomposed. They were not of much use to me, but -11- 5 ^ the medicai reports vere of interest* Organs , bone and skin composi - tion were different. Heart was bigger, lungs were larger and many muscle structures were differente Bone makeup was unique. Skin composition was of great interest- It appeared that atoms were aligned to protect vital organs from cosmic action or gravitational pulì. Not much was said of the brain which was large compàred to the size of the body. There were many biological surprìses. Many individuai features were different but the overall structure was not that much different than a human . CAUTIQN. During the course of history many strange beìngs bave appeared on earth- From green humans to "Extra- Terrestrial Biological Entities"- (This terni had been used at the White House during my NSC days ) . The bio- logical and evolutionary process appeared quite diff- erent from ordinary earth humans, However, we have to consider many biological human factors. Favo Nurmi, the unbeatable Finnish (Finland) distance runner had a large, slow beating heart, and never tired in his long distance runs • The Aztec Indians have large lungs and it is difficuìt for them to live in our environ- ment. They bleed profusely. Certain athletes have a different muscle structure. Some races are subject to dìseases which most humans and races are immune. Brain capacities differ and dwarfs dìffer from average humans. We must consider that every 50 million humans one could emerge different > RE COMMENDAI IQN. In his present biological structure man cannot travel for prolonged periods in space. 12* S Whether we found an "extra-terr iterisi biologi cai entity" is not as important in the R & D arena as to ways that we can develop so that man can travel in space. We must discover gravitational fields for our space shìps. Most importante we must fìnd ways to shield our astronauts f rom cosmi e action or other radiation type fields» Perhaps alignment of molecule-atoms will solve the se problems . We must continue the quest and f inance such ventures* Homosapiens future and existence might tìepend on the success of such development , which at the moment are beyond our "state of the art". We must continue at ali costs . THE CHIP My Army career took me through the stages of vacuum tubes, to chassis, which were small systems and could be easily changed in sections, then carne the card and transistore. The 1941 com- puters were oil filled data pots . Then in 1961 I was shown a charred semi-conductor chip, a small wafer formed like a disc with an integrated cìrcuit. Next a new shiny transister made by North American Rockwell - ali thìs within three years. The charred chip with a printed circuit supposedly carne from the debris of the crashed UFO. I began to discuss the potential with the German missile scientists and other knowledgeabie engineers in some of our large Industries. My discussions with General Trudeau gave me a good insight on the potential of this great development which seemed to bave been thrust upon us from nowhere. But, it was here- Could we control this discovery in the future orbeceuse of the nature of our system lose it? ■ et òut system wes geared to product improvement and not long range R & D, would aggressive, ìntellìgent countries such as Germany and Japan take ìt from us and run with ìt? The repercussions ori our economy could be disastrous. Such a development would be a crime if we lost it by default and greed. We saw possible economie chaos in thirty years. A tìangerous situation was evolving which could have a serious effect on our way of life and the future of our country. The large corporations were constantly coming to us for R & D money, We spent about 2 billion dollars a year. Much was in RDT&E money. (Research, Development , Test and Evaluation). These were generally the initiai production cost of an item. We discovered that the biggest percentage of the large contractors were no longer investing in long term research and development, but only in short term product improvement . In theìr opinion U.S. Military R & D money was a bottomless purse and they could dip .into if for projeets which never carne to an end* When a project reached the "state of the art" no end was within sight, We refused to fund projeets any longer. We foresaw an extremely dangerous situation within 30 years. (The Japanese for example would move ahead while we were mìred in product improve- ment. } This situation was widespread since management and Boards of Dìrectors looked for yearly divìdends and not into something that would -14 i pay off, 10 or 12 years down the road . We carne to the conclusion that no holder of large chunks of vor stock should/be aliowed to serve in a high manage- ment position or on a Board of Directors r but this was wishful thinking in our system. REQQMMENDATIQN. Thìs discovery was so important and far reach- ing that we should invest as much R & D money as possìble. However, we should closeiy monitor each con tra et, sin ce large corporations ha ve a habit of never ending research, especially beyond the "state of the art" > and keep coming back for more and more ' R & D money. This program has to be a military- industriai complex venture sin e e ìts ramifica tions deeply ìnvolve national security and would take much of our resources to develop- It is also fraught with dangers wfaeìi we reach the point when computers can share information such as two humans can do. This discovery makes it possible for the human mind to integrate with computers. A super human, out of control, is unimaginable in the damage that this could cause our way of life. We will reach this point since we know our brain gener- ates electrical ìmpulses. At the present I cannot vìsualize how to control such a vast and promising discovery. But, we must stay ahead in the race for super chips and super computers. When computers start giving commands to each other, mind control is not far behind* -15- Ò Ce During my tour at the NSC.and Army R&D^ I became good friends with Maj . Gen . Dale Smith of the U.S.A.F. He was most knowledgeable in atomics and was advisor to the Joint Chiefs of Staff on atomic matters. During a discussion of the Soviet monster bomb explosìon of 60 megatons, Gen. Smith made the statement that we eould not scale up the effects of a .22 caliber bullet to gìve us the effects of a 280mm shell or a naval 16 " gun shellj as such we could not scale up the effects of a 1 kiloton bomb to give us the effects of a 60 megaton bomb. The ìon emission of a 60 megaton bomb were an unknown, although we knew it had knocked out our Communications in the entire Pacific area. We al so knew that an atomic submarine left an ion emission tunnel in its wake. We often wondered ìf this phenomena contributed to the loss of three submarines . During this perìod the transistor and integrated circuìt was beginning to flourish. The future was almost unlimited in the potentiai of this device. But one lingering doubt always was imbedded in the back of our mìnd. Could we always control its functions and effects. We had no pattern or history to fall back on, bue we knew had to move ahead and, like the atomic bomb, hope for the best and keep it under control. Einstein said that the physìcal matter was nothing more than a concentrated field of force. A physical substance ìs an intangible concent rat ion of wave forme. Different combinations of structural patterns of waves unite to form chemical and 35 57 elements whìch in turn react to one another to form physical substances. Different wave forms of mattar appear to be solid because we are constituted of similar wave forms whìch resonate wìthin a clearly defìned range of frequencies. This not only applies to our body, organs and brain, but control the physical process of our world and universe. To trajf^verse space is to possess the means of manipulating or altering the structure of space. The method of achieving this lies in the alteration of frequencies controllìng the matter anti-matter cycles. If we eliminate time then different positions would co-exist . This is called zero -time. is this the phenomena that the transistor-chip would unleash? Would ìt alternate frequencies and eliminate time? Would it create an elementary particle characterized by speed greater than light, with energy decreasing proportion to speed? (Physicist Gerald Feinberg) , As in the Philadelphia Experìment, could the transistor-chip get out of hand and cause great damage and destruction? We would have to learn to control this wonderful device which could alter our world. We carne to the decisìon that the danger was really "man" who would control ìts output and not the device itself . So we move ahead . One school of thought was that controlied frequencies of integrateci circuits could contribute to healings of certain bodily misf unctions, diseases and even viruses. 36 LI. I expect to stay ori top of this and keep msking recommenda- tions frorn time to time. The analysis, caution notes and recommendations were written in long hand and returned with the General 's comrnents. They were turned into R & D Guidance proposals and returned to me. I destroyed them by shredding and burning. i ? f THE TRIANGLE OF THE FUTURE When I reported to Lt. General Trudeau, I walked into his office, saluted and said, " Reporting for duty, sir". He looked up and said, "I see you are aboard, Phil, watcii things for me. The others do not understand." He placed a great burden on me, His trust in my word meant that I could never mislead him with my findings and recommendations. I sat in my office one day and cleared my desk. I placed three items on it, A small piece of a grayish type metal, a faded photograph and a small charred piece of silicon with an integrated circuit. To the casual observer it wouìd appear that I had scoured through a trash bin. However, I thought, these three innocuous bits of seemingly trash could change the future of the world as we Knew tt. Years before I told a story to Pope Paul VI. I was handed the responsibility for intelligence and security of Rome, a city in chaos. I didn ' t know what to do* The lives of my people in Rome was my responsibility. In anger, seìf-pity and ignorance, I said to him (Pope Paul VI) I chalìenged your God and mine, thinking, "Did you (God) put me here as a joke". Pope Pauì's answer was, "You were chosen." I answered, "He must have programmed me and bears no malice towards me, my record was 0-0-0 in 3 years - No America ns kilìed, none of my agents killed, none of our instaìiations damaged and I restored law and order* Now in my office at the Pentagon, I looked up r pleading to Pope Paul VI, as I had previously to his God. "Why me? What do I do? " Then I remembered General to Trudeau's wortìs to me, "It's not important how you get a position, but what you do after you get there." I reached down and formed a triangle* The photo at the top, the piece of metal at the bottom and the chip on the other bottom side* Three equal sides and three equal angles, Ali three of equal importance but ìntegrated* Man would be able to travel in space, in a space shìp so strong and light that it could resist ali eventualitìes, with a guidance, própulsion and probìem-soìving system that could get hìm to his destinatìon and safely back to his world. Thìs was what I presented to my General along with appropriate recommenda- tions- The key was here, but would we see the results of what we started in our life times? 6! SUPER TENACITY FIBERS The problem of solving how to harden circuitry against ion emìssions or radiation from atomìc blasts is a formidable one. In my "Junk Pile" was a piece of Silver colored fabric. Its fibers were woven at different angles. Atype of angular cross- weave, A report speculated that each fiber or thread was composed of a linear type atomic-molecular alignment. It was of great strength and was most difficult to cut, It would often blunt any shear type instrument. We had discovered, in nature a substance closely resembling the structure of the "Junk" fiber. It was the strand of a spider web, This is a starting point for research and development- We must find a way to produce a duplicate of the spider web or find a way for a naturai product, similar to the production of silk or a synthetic such as rayon. Computers , electronic devices and wiring and cable must be enclosed in a radiation or cosmic ray repellent case or cage* It is necessary to divert damaging outside interference from intermingl- ing or damaging vital guidance systems, or the electronic brain in an anti-rnissile-missilf t or even in a vehicle designed for space trave!. ^ PLASMA In I960, General Trudeau said,"At that time as interested as ve were in space, it was guite evident that we weren ' t the only pecple the.re." (Page 296, Memoirs) Plasma- -An ionized gas produced at very high temperatures (in the stars) containing about equa! numbers of positive and negative charges, which is a good conductor of electricity, and is affected by a magnetic field. Plasma Engine--A rocket engine utiiizing thrust from mag- netically accelerated ionized gases, Magnetic Fìeld—Exerts a force on a charged particle only if it is in motion and charged particles produces magnetic fieids only when they are in motion. Magnetic Encephalogram-- A chart of the brain's magnetic field. ABLATIQN A report on the piece of metal I had in my possession stated that it possibly had a thin imbedded cover, over the metal? or subitanee- The nearest it carne in analysis was something like a mixture of plastic or ce rami e . From this Information we developed a nose cane for our explorer missiles which were Jupiter mìssiles based on our Redstone elements. This nose cone was a plastic or ceramic which would melt away slowly, absorb the tremendous heat of going through our atmosphere, at a slow rate, melt slowly with little or no damage te the nose cone- We began work od propulsion systems both fission and fusion. This showed promise for space travel, but needed much more development beyond 1963. The most intriguing and exciting fact was what we believed the UFO approach to high speed and space propulsion, i.e. Plasma adjacent to the vehìcle to produce thrust or lift and change of direction which we also needed on our anti-missile missile and ariti--. •' satellite development - This led to an amazing discovery* A magnetic field on plasma around a vehicle resulted in a glow and changes in color as it picked up speed > This suggested an intelligence or extra terrestrìal using a type of EMP propulsion system* In color fi Im s often a halo or glow in colors appeared around the boundaries. We deduced in a solar (EMF) wìnd (Plasma) that a space;- vehicle using magnetic propulsion could travel in space at speeds approaching that of light, ali other factors remaining Constant, such as the strength of the skin, of the vehicle and man ' s ability to survive. Above ali this remained the prob- lem of gravity (spacetime) and free float. €Ì ELECTROMAGNETIC WELDER Oneof the perplexing probleins that we faced,was how the UFO saucers with their superhard atom alìgned skin was put together - There were no seams, joint lines f rìvets or weld joìnts* The same was apparent in the skin tight space clothes they wore. The Silver strands of fibers possessed great strength on the same order as the saucer skin componente?, Metal? We knew that strands if spider webs had great longitudinal strength, but were not sure of their multi-directional strength. We began research on supertenacity fibers. Along with thìs we hit upon a new technology or a new scientific directiqn. Also at the time , for want of a better descrìption we carne upon electromagnetic welding or reaching down to the atom level, where atoms-molecules were always in motion and would allow an electromagnetic action ^which would take like atoms and fuse their fields together. No seams - No separation r only one entity* In 1962, I received information that a small firm near Winchester, Va. had perfected a type of electromagnetic welder. I took off alone and found an unpretentìous group of wooden buildings. I entered a small office. Since I was in unif oriti I was given a warm greeting. After a short briefing I was given some literature and a brochure. Next I was taken to another building for a demonstration. A piece of equipment about 10 r x 10 r x 8' high with a control panel set to one side was é'3 i ~ in the building tvo pieces of metal were inserted. They turned on a type of generator called an electromagnetìc generator. It hummed softly and ran smoothly. A button was pressed and I heard a loud bang which sounded like it carne from a powerful force- It was unlike the sound of a large cannon, or thunder but more concentrated and localized. I was a little startled by the intensi ty of the loud sledge hammer type bang, I was used to artillery f missile boosters and rocket fire and showed no emotion. The test was repeated many times. Each time with the loud, intense 7 powerful f concentrated, implosion, Each time the two pieces of metal which I had placed in the machine and marked; carne out, with no seams, welds or joints. I felt no vibration or tremors or after effects of the powerful force and resulting implosion. The next day I returned to my off ice r wrote a report, attached the literature and gave it to General Trudeau. Unfortunately, the General was getting ready for retirement . I followed in retirement a few months later, I don ' t know if the report with my recommendations was filed away into oblivìon. I will attempt to find cut, if the system set back a most promising development, or if it fell through the cracks and got burned. 2 ; tf -11- NIGHT VIEWING DEVI CE EYE BALL TO EYE BALL The photograph didn't mean too rauch to me, but again one of the medicai reports ìntrigued my imagìnation. It discussed the eyes. In itself the report was vague and inconclusive, but one item was most interesting. It said that there appeared to be a transparent film over the eyeball. It didn't say whether it was a type of con- tact lens and described a iens such as in eyeglasses. The appearance of some layers appeared to be random, no pattern, but reflected light; It was believed only in black and white. Years before I had been issued a patent, based upon an experi- ment by Leonardo DiVinci, which at random, reflected light , inten- sified the image. I had never seen a report where occupants comìng from a supposed airshìp used any type of flashiight or illuminatìon while moving in the dark. I was especially interest ed in the men- tion of some sort of film over the eyeball- Nature provides some of its creatures with an extra eyelid to protect against blowing sand, cold, snow, etc. to protect the eye. In this case it could be an eye cover or eyelid with a two-fold missìon. One a random layered lens type affair with some sort of electronic magnif ication to intensify an ìmage in the dark and an atomic alignment cover to protect the eye against cosmic action or other harmful radiation. This was consistent with the skin structure which was designed to protect vital body parts, I wrote a report based upon this flimsy evidence that it was possible to collect some light. even when it appeared to our eyes that 61 ì ; -12- it was pitch dark. The guest began for a night viewing device or image intensifier. This project would not illuminate the target, but only intensify naturai light. We had reports that the Russians vere working on such a device for their tanks and in combat it would give the user a decided advantage in night fighting. A decision was made to set up a special night viewing research unit at Ft . Belvoir, to speed up development of such a device. And so another project was set up on vhat we called another "gift from heaven" . General Trudeau sent for me and handed me an envelope. In it was authority for an appropriation _-^ r " : -r- ^--- to move ahead rapidly to perfect a night viewing device. He said to take a team to Ft* Belvoir - they expect you. If you are satìsfied on their progress and appraoch, the decision is yours on whether we move ahead or reorganize. If you and your team are satisfied, then you may teli them that the money is available and they are to move full speed ahead. I felt good, because of the General' s confidence in me, but again I got that sinking feeling in my stomachi - "What if I make a rais take".* I immediately called HANS Kohìer, one of the German Scientists. The youngest of the group, but I considered him the best of them and a brilliant individuai- We spent the entire day at the lab and at the end of the inspection sat down at what we called the exit inter- view. I began, "Gentlemen, my friend, Hans, is ali smiles, I know that look and need to ask him no questions. In college I had a Speech Professor, who never gave an "A". He called me one day and said 1 am going to give you an "A". Your speech was one of the best I have heard and you gauged the audience reaction perfect. My speech was a titled "ls There a Santa Claus?" and I went ahead to prove there was. I turned to the head of the lab and said, "I will act as Santa Claus and you will be ali smiles. " He opened the envelope and read the appropriatìon . It was for a total of 6,6 mìllion approved by General Trudeau* He looked at me and said, "we were a little apprebensive when we were told you were coming because of your reputation. M I said, "Yes, I have heard that 1 am at times hard to deal with, that is true. I hate stupidity, but I always feel gobd when I deal with true prof essionals who know what they are doing. Congratulations , now give us a night viewing device this year. n I reported rny findings to General Trudeau and he was pleased. Then I said, "Sir, we have just received reports from a tank crew member who deserted, that the Soviet device is crude, but works although it needs improvement. I have prepared a memo for your approvai that we offer a premium of $250,000,00 for anyone , no questiona asked, that brings one of the devices to us, It could save us much tinte and money; although General you will be called "immoral" by the do gooders if this is made public . Àlso, the Soviet s have been nosing around since the Roswell incident, so we will play the same game* Pur money in this area was well spent. As head of foreign technology, I had access to German dis- coveries we captured after WWII, I also had the advantage of "dìscussing certain subjects with the German scientists. One of these was the infra-red image converter. This information was made avallatale to our scientists. The Russians also sought this information- THE ANTI-MISSILE-MISSILE Soon after I retired from the Army -in early 1963, I was asked by Senator Strom Thurmond to join his staff. Congress had approp- riated §300,000,000*00 to continue research on the anti-missile- missile. The administration and mainly Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara, refused to spend the money which had been appropriated . The reasons given were that it wasn't needed, rnight offend the Soviets and intensify the arms race, Senator Thurmond 1 s Legislative Assist- ane later President Nixon's Council, and a graduate of West Point, Fred Bruzhardt, found a little used senate regulation, whereby a senator could close a session of Congress to discuss a cìassifìed matter before the full Senate. We asked for Information from the Department of Defense, I prepared the reguest* A few days before the closed Senate session we had a meeting in my office in the base- ment of the Capitol Building. Department of Defense sent their scientific adviser,and an Array Colonel, the project officer. During the session the scientific adviser said, "I see my Assistant is calling you, Colonel, and you seem to know a lot of details on the subject." I replied, "Yes, I retired two months ago and I was the Acting Project? Of f icer before retiring." He reached into his pocket and said, ,f There is no use in holding back, in this envelope are the complete details on which we briefed President Kennedy. I presume this what you are ìooking for, officially. M The sequence of events leading to this meeting began over a year back, I was Ìooking through my "Nut File" and what the General called my "Junk Pile". I found a report on a brain different -70 -2- but siiniiar to ours. Thìs seemed to me lìke a conciusion which cancelled itself, However, there were some words and observations which were most interestìng and aroused in my mind some of my past experiences in Italy. One was a weak signal given off by the brain which was sìmilar to what I had learned and typed long ; low frequency waves. There also was: a:mention ofTEMI, not electro- magne tic interference , but electro-magnetic integration of brain lobes. Years before when I was the Chief of Intelligence and Security of the ACofS G-2 (Assìstant Chief of Staff, Intelligence of the Rome Area Allied Command ) , I met a most interest in g individuai , Gi siero Flesch, a Professor of Criminology and Anthropology at the University of Home* He taught me what he called the basis of life, or the filament within each celi which was activated by cosmic action or electro-magnetic waves from outer space and a balance of resonance furnished electricaìly by the brain. Professor Casmiro Franck was one of the first scientists to photograph brain waves and became a friend- In bis first experiments he used a rabbìt brain- Professor Frank used long low frequency waves and was able to trace t hem from the brain to the body organs and muscèj^s controlied by brain action. He said and proved that paralysis is not that, no brain waves reach the muscle to control it, but the wrong wave length is reaching the muscle } and he corrected it many times. Then, I becsme friends with the famous Professor Castellani wfto had isolated sleeping sick- ness and perfected the Castellani ointments for skin treatments. He said chemìcal reactants giving off electro-magnetic long low frequency waves did the healing. Ali three men were using long, low frequency electro-magnetic waves in a miracuìous manner effecting even cures of cancer. ir I began to wonder ìf what we believed was a guidance system was really a mechanism controlied by long,low waves emitting from the brain that had been examined* One report had mentìoned what appeared to be an electrical system which had been damaged. \ìe could get no reaction by normal means» In this perìod we had received reports that the Soviets could change the trajectory of an ICBM in flight. This posed serious problems for our defenses and in addition, we know that the Russians had conducted two very sophisticated anti-missile-missile test firings and fired an intercept missile through an atomìc cloud. The General and I during one of our sessions sat down and discussed this problem, We concluded that abrupt and quick, tight maneuvers could only be done by thought control, which in our think- ing was the beginning of research in another dimensìon, and we often speculated if this dimension could be in the realm of the so-called UFOs . I also told the General of my bout with the Gestapo hitman in Rome. Pure instinct saved my life and one of the learned professors that I prevìously discussed, told me that instinct carne about in layers from another dimension* At the time, because of my youth, I didn't pay much attention to hìs words , but now the meaning of their knowledge, to put ìt in clear wording, had taken on a different mean- ing or another dimension* I had, a few years before (1957) commanded the Army ' s Missile Firing Range in New Mexico, at the Red Canyon Range Battlaion which was in the White Sands area. Also, later I commanded the Army ' s first operational Missile Battlalion in Germany, the 552 Missile Bn. Upon our return to New Mexico, the 552 made the first perfect missile 1 v. -4- ') shoot in the
