HI GROUP,I WAS SENT THIS TODAY. :ph43r:
Information below has been released
to the public through a freedom-of-
information request to the U.S. Air
Force, other government departments
that collect UFO information and from
North American Air Defence Command
(NORAD)
26th NORAD Region, near Lewiston, Montana - Nov.8, 1975
Sabotage Alert Team watches as UFOs covert near missile
Launch Control Facility. Minutes later, NORAD F-106 fighters
attempt to intercept UFOs but are out manuevered by UFOs
clever tactics.
The Air force and NORAD data provided
detailed accounts of sightings of UFOs
from Loring Air Force Base in Maine,
Wurtsmith AFB in Michigan and Malmstrom
AFB in Montana, all within a two-week
period, during 1975.
At those and other missile-launching
sites in the northern tier of states,
military personnel reported that the
objects hovered over nuclear weapons
storage areas, in some cases as low as
10 feet from the ground, and missile
silos, before they departed.
In one such instance, on Nov. 7, 1975,
at Malmstrom AFB, Capt. Thomas W.
O'Brien, who had just left duty as a
missile launch officer, said an unknown
aircraft approached the silo area.
He and his deputy heard what they
thought was an air craft over the
building where they were resting. The
deputy looked out the window and saw
"the silhouette of a large aircraft
hovering about 10 to 15 feet above the
ground" and about 25 feet from the
launch area fence.
He reportedly saw two red and white
lights on the front, a white light on
the bottom and another on the rear.
Darkness prevented him from seeing
markings or personnel in the object.
The object left after a minute or so
of hovering, the report said.
Military crews at two other nearby
launch facilities reported moving
lights in the air on the same evening,
but said they heard no sounds.
NORAD commanders' activity logs during
that period of time reported another
sighting at another unidentified launch
facility in which witnesses said they
saw the object "issuing a black object
from it, tubular in shape." Standard
radar surveillance provided no clues as
to the presence of anything other than
known craft in the area.
More detail appeared in reports of
sightings on Oct. 30 and 31 over Wurtsmith
AFB, where some UFO flew around the base
and hovered over weapons-storage bunkers.
Investigators subsequently determined
that no military, commercial or private
helicopters known to be based in the area
could have been around Wurtsmith at those
times. The crew of a KC135 tanker plane,
already airborne, spotted the object near
the base and attempted to give chase, but
couldn't keep up with it.
Several sighting occurred at the Maine
air base as well as well, where objects
hovered over the weapons area. Radar and
visual sightings were made, and another
KC135 was sent aloft to over-see pursuit
efforts by a helicopter borrowed from the
Maine National Guard.
The UFO eventually disappeared toward
the Canadian border, where Canadian air
force jets were on alert. There was no
indication whether the Canadian planes
spotted the object or objects.
When studying the history of UFOs and
various air force activities around the
world it is easy to see the military knows
real UFOs are a very serious matter.
