For the record, I believe in UFO’s. I think it’s silly for someone to say they don’t. After all, there are from time to time objects that (for either the moment or for a while) are unidentified in the skies.

What I think is “funny as hell” is belief that UFO’s *must* be aliens from another planet (or dimension, or spiritual plane or whatever). There’s no evidence of THAT.

But there is plenty of evidence of UFO’s.

Just my 2 cents.

“I think it’s funny as hell that people get all worked up about it, when there are so much more important things to be concerned about.”

Then why do you wast all that important time making fun of people? Accoeding to you, you should have more important things to be concerned about.

Famous Quotes - Military

Name:
Admiral Delmar Fahrney

Quotes:

Reliable reports indicate there are objects coming into our atmosphere at very high speeds and controlled by thinking intelligences.

A public statement, 1957.

No agency in this country or Russia is able to duplicate at this time the speeds and accelerations which radars and observers indicate these flying objects are able to achieve.

Printed in New York Times. Admiral Fahrney was former head of the Navy’s guided-missile program.

Name:
Brig. General George Shulgen

Quotes:

It is the considered opinion of some elements that the object may in fact represent an interplanetary craft of some kind.

From a Draft Intelligence Collections Memorandum by Brig. Geneneral George Shulgen, Oct. 28, 1947

Name:
Captain Bill Uhouse

Quotes:

The [flight] simulator was for the extraterrestrial craft they had a 30 meter one that crashed in Kingman, Arizona, back in 1953. I was inside the actual alien craft for a start-up....There are probably two or three dozen [ARVs] that we built.

From Disclosure, Steven M. Greer. Captain Bill Uhouse was in the US Marine Corps.

Name:
Captain Eddie Rickenbacker

Quotes:

Flying saucers are real. Too many good men have seen them, that don’t have hallucinations.

Captain Rickenbacker was known as, American Ace of Aces, medal of honor-winning commander of the 94th Aero Pursuit Squadron in WWI, with 26 kills.

Name:
Captain Edward J. Ruppelt

Quotes:

Every time I get skeptical, I think of the other reports made by experienced pilots and radar operators, scientists, and other people who know what they are looking at. These reports were thoroughly investigated and they are still unknowns.

We have no aircraft on this earth that can at will so handily outdistance our latest jets... The pilots, radar specialists, generals, industrialists, scientists, and the man on the street who have told me, I wouldn’t have believed it either if I hadn’t seen it myself, knew what they were talking about. Maybe the Earth is being visited by interplanetary space ships.

When four college professors, a geologist, a chemist, a physicist, and a petroleum engineer report seeing the same UFOs on fourteen different occasions, the event can be classified as, at least, unusual. Add the fact that hundreds of other people saw these UFOs and that they were photographed, and the story gets even better. Add a few more facts, that these UFOs were picked up on radar and that a few people got a close look at one of them, and the story begins to convince even the most ardent skeptic.

Ruppelt, Chief of Project Blue Book, from his book, The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects, 1956.

Name:
Captain Robert Salas

Quotes:

[The security guard called and] said, Sir, there’s a glowing red object hovering right outside the front gate. I’ve got all the men out here with their weapons drawn. We lost between 16 to 18 ICBMs [nuclear-tipped InterContinental Ballistic Missiles] at the same time UFOs were in the area...[A high-ranking Air Force Officer] said, Stop the investigation; do no more on this and do not write a final report. I heard that many of the guards that reported this incident were sent off to Viet Nam.

From Disclosure, Steven M. Greer. Captain Robert Salas was a US Air Force officer.

Name:
Captain Thomas Mantell

Quotes:

It appears to be a metallic object......tremendous in size....directly ahead and slightly above .... I am trying to close for a better look.

Mantell, a USAF pilot, reporting to the tower at Goodman Air Force base, a UFO they had picked up on radar and requested him to investigate. Mantell’s plane was later found strewn across a stretch of ground just southwest of Franklyn, Kentucky.

Name:
Colonel Carl Sanderson

Quotes:

From their maneuvers and their terrific speed I am certain their flight performance was greater than any aircraft known today.

Sanderson, USAF, commenting on his sighting of two circular silver UFOs in close proximity to his plane over Hermanas, New Mexico. The UFOs were said to make a series of seemingly impossible maneuvers before disappearing at an astonishing speed and showing up again over El Paso, Texas.

Name:
Colonel Charles Senn

Quotes:

I sincerely hope that you are successful in preventing a reopening of UFO investigations.

In a letter from , to Lieutenant General Duward Crow of NASA, dated 1 September 1977. Colonel Senn was Chief of the Air Force, Community Relations Division.

Name:
Colonel Joseph J. Bryan III

Quotes:

These UFOs are interplanetary devices systematically observing the earth, either manned or under remote control, or both.

Information on UFOs, including sighting reports, has been and is still being officially withheld.

Bryan was founder of the CIA’s psychological warfare staff, special assistant to the secretary of the Air Force, advisor to NATO, and board member of the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomenon (NICAP).

Name:
Colonel Philip J. Corso

Quotes:

If you suppress the truth it becomes your enemy...if you expose the truth it becomes your weapon. I had the evidence that a crash did happen. I ask you this, were you there with me? did you have the clearances? They can’t answer these questions, they simply criticize with no evidence.

I had the evidence that a crash did happen here....Give this information to the young people of the world and this country....They want it. Give it to them. Don’t hide it and tell lies and make stories. They’re not stupid....It’s their information. It doesn’t belong to the Army or the Department of Defense. If it’s classified, take the classification off and give it to them!

Colonel Corso made this impassioned plea not long before his death in the summer of 1998. He was a member of President Eisenhower’s National Security Council and later went on to become head of the U.S. Army Research and Development department’s Foreign Technology Desk where he claimed to have worked with General Arthur Trudeau in seeding American military and industrial institutions with technology under his stewardship which came from a crashed alien craft in Roswell New Mexico.

Name:
Colonel Robert Willingham

Quotes:

Headquarters wouldn’t let us go after it and we played around a little bit. We got to watching how it made 90 degree turns at this high speed and everything. We knew it wasn’t a missile of any type. So then, we confirmed it with the radar control station, and they kept following it, and they claimed that it crashed somewhere off between Texas and the Mexico border.

Willingham, USAF, from an affidavit filed in the 1970s. Willingham and his navigator were test flying an F-94 on Sept.6, 1950 out of San Angelo, Texas when they were alerted by radar control operators of a UFO in their area.

Name:
Colonel Steve Wilson

Quotes:

I have no feelings, truthfully. My association with MJ-12 has left me dead inside. I feel myself still cold and calculating. I never let anyone get close to me. I feel like a human robot. I have killed mercilessly and lied for the good of the country, or so I believed at the time.

The things I have seen are beyond human understanding and totally unbelievable. I only have a desire to help humanity somehow through what is bound to come soon.

Col. Wilson, USAF, revealed that he was in charge of Project Pounce, the unit tasked to retrieve downed UFOs and prevent civilian access to them. He also revealed the designations and manufacturers of U.S. antigravity craft.

Name:
Colonel Thomas Jefferson Dubose

Quotes:

There were orders to ship the material from Roswell directly to Wright Field by special plane. Dubose was adjutant to Brig. General Roger Ramey at the time of the Roswell Incident. This statement contradicts the official story that the material was first flown to Fort Worth, Texas, where Ramey posed with Major Marcel and pieces of a weather balloon for the media.

Name:
Corporal Jonathan Weygandt

Quotes:

[The UFO] was buried in the side of a cliff. When I first saw it, I was scared. I think the creatures calmed me...[Later] I was arrested [by an Air Force officer]. He was saying, Do you like the Constitution? I’m like, Yeah. He said, We don’t obey. We just do what we want. And if you tell anybody [about us or the UFO], you will just come up missing.

From Disclosure, Steven M. Greer. Corporal Weygandt was in the U.S. Marine Corps.

Name:
General Curtis LeMay

Quotes:

We had a number of reports from reputable individuals (well-educated serious-minded folks, scientists and fliers) who surely saw something.

As Air Force Chief of Staff, in his 1965 autobiography, Mission With LeMay, stated that although the bulk of UFO reports could be explained as conventional or natural phenomena, some could not.

Many of the mysteries might be explained away as weather balloons, stars, reflected lights, all sorts of odds and ends. I don’t mean to say that, in the unclosed and unexplained or unexplainable instances, those were actually flying objects. All I can say is that no natural phenomena could be found to account for them... Repeat again: There were some cases we could not explain. Never could.

Statement from 1965 autobiography Mission With LeMay, with MacKinlay Kantor, New York: Doubleday, 1965.

Name:
General Douglas MacArthur

Quotes:

The nations of the world will have to unite, for the next war will be an interplanetary war. The nations of the earth must someday make a common front against attack by people from other planets.

The New York Times, October 8, 1955

You now face a new world a world of change. The thrust into outer space of the satellite, spheres and missiles marked the beginning of another epoch in the long story of mankind , the chapter of the space age... We speak in strange terms: of harnessing the cosmic energy... of the primary target in war, no longer limited to the armed forces of an enemy, but instead to include his civil populations; of ultimate conflict between a united human race and the sinister forces of some other planetary galaxy.

An address by General Douglas MacArthur to the United States Military Academy at West Point, May 12, 1962.

Name:
General George S. Brown

Quotes:

I don’t know whether this story has ever been told or not. They weren’t called UFOs. They were called enemy helicopters. And they were only seen at night and they were only seen in certain places. They were seen up around the DMZ [demilitarized zone] in the early summer of 68. And this resulted in quite a little battle. And in the course of this, an Australian destroyer took a hit and we never found any enemy, we only found ourselves when this had all been sorted out. And this caused some shooting there, and there was no enemy at all involved but we always reacted. Always after dark. The same thing happened up at Pleiku at the Highlands in 69.

Brown, as U.S.A.F. Chief of Staff, addressing the appearance of UFOs during the Vietnam War at a press conference in Illinois, October 16, 1973.

Name:
General Nathan Twining

Quotes:

The reported operating characteristics such as extreme rates of climb, maneuverability (particularly in roll), and action which must be considered evasive when sighted ... lend belief to the possibility that some of the objects are controlled.

Twining as Head of Air Material Command (AMC), 1947.

The phenomenon is something real and not visionary or fictitious. There are objects approximating the shape of a disc, some of which appear flat on bottom and domed on top. These objects are as large as man-made aircraft and have a metallic or light-reflecting surface. Further they exhibit extreme rates of climb and maneuverability with no associated sound and take action which must be considered evasive when contacted by aircraft and radar.

Twining, in a declassified letter to the Pentagon. General Twining was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff 1957-1960.

Name:
General Robert B. Landry

Quotes:

I was called one afternoon [in 1948] to come to the Oval Office – the President wanted to see me.... I was directed to report quarterly to the President after consulting with Central Intelligence people, as to whether or not any UFO incidents received by them could be considered as having any strategic threatening implications ..

Landry was an aide to President Harry S. Truman.

Name:
General Stephen Lovekin

Quotes:

Colonel Holomon brought out a piece of what appeared to be metallic debris. He went on to explain that this was material that had come from a New Mexico crash in 1947 of an extraterrestrial craft, and that was discussed at length...I got an opportunity to travel with the President [Eisenhower]. He was very, very interested in what made [the UFOs] go. But what happened was that Eisenhower got sold out. He realized that he was losing control of the UFO subject. He realized that the [study of these technologies] was not going to be in the best hands. That was a real concern.

From Disclosure, Steven M. Greer. General Lovekin was in the US Army.

Name:
Lieutenant Colonel Lawrence J. Coyne

Quotes:

With the aircraft under my control, I observed the red-lighted object closing upon the helicopter at the same altitude at a high rate of speed. It became apparent a mid-air collision was about to happen unless evasive action was taken.

I looked out ahead of the helicopter and observed an aircraft I have never seen before. This craft positioned itself directly in front of the moving helicopter. This craft was 50 to 60 feet long with a grey metallic structure. On the front of this craft was a large steady bright red light. I could delineate where the red stopped on the structure of this craft because red was reflecting off the grey structure. The design of this craft was symmetrical in shape with a prominent aft indentation on the undercarriage. From this portion of the undercarriage, a green light, pyramid-shaped, emerged with the light initially in the trail position. This green light then swung 90 degrees, coming directly into the front windshield and lighting up the entire cockpit of the aircraft. All colors inside the cabin of the helicopter were absorbed by this green light. That includes the instrument panel lights on the aircraft.

As a result of my experience, I am convinced this object was real and that these types of incidents should require a thorough investigation. It is my own personal opinion that worldwide procedures need to be established to effectively study this phenomena through an international cooperative effort. The establishment of a Transponder Code for aircraft flying worldwide is needed, to identify to ground controllers that a pilot is indeed experiencing a UFO phenomena and that pilot anxiety can be reduced to provide safe effective flying, knowing he is under radar control.

Lt. Col. Coyne was a U.S. Army Reserve helicopter pilot with 3,000 hours of flying time. He and other three airmen had a close encounter with a UFO on the night of October 18, 1973, while flying in a U.S. Army Bell Huey utility helicopter in the vicinity of Mansfield, Ohio. Lt. Coyne described his experience at a United Nations UFO hearing in 1978.

Name:
Lieutenant D.A. Swimley

Quotes:

And don’t tell me they were reflections, I know they were solid objects.

Swimley, USAF, commenting on a sighting of eight disc shaped objects he and several fellow officers watched circling over Hamilton AFB, California, on August 3, 1953. The objects were also picked up on radar and spotted by many civilian pilots. F-86 Sabres were scrambled to intercept the objects, but the jets were apparently too slow.

Name:
Lieutenant Frederick Fox

Quotes:

There is a [military] publication called JANAP 146E that has a section that says you will not reveal any information regarding the UFO phenomenon under penalty of $10,000 fine and ten years in jail. So the secret has been kept.

From Disclosure, Steven M. Greer. Lieutenant was a US Navy Pilot.

Name:
Lieutenant George Gorman

Quotes:

I am convinced there was thought behind the thing’s maneuvers.

Gorman was in the North Dakota Air National Guard. In October, 1948 Gorman (flying an F51) chased a ball of light some eight inches wide for about thirty minutes, through a series of twists, turns and circles, nearly colliding with it on at least one occasion. The object was also witnessed from the control tower at the Fargo Airport through high-powered binoculars.

Name:
Lt. Colonel James McAshan

Quotes:

In concealing the evidence of UFO operations, the Air Force is making a serious mistake.

McAshan was USAF.

Name:
Lt. Colonel Richard Headrick

Quotes:

Saucers exist, I saw two. They were intelligently flown or operated (evasive tactics, formation flight, hovering). They were mechanisms, not United States weapons, nor Russian. I presume they are extraterrestrial.

Headrick was a radar bombing expert, 1959.

Name:
Lt. Frank H. Schofield

Quotes:

Three objects appeared beneath the clouds, their color a rather bright red. As they approached the ship they appeared to soar, passing above the broken clouds. After rising above the clouds they appeared to be moving directly away from the earth. The largest had an apparent area of about six suns. It was egg-shaped, the larger end forward. The second was about twice the size of the sun, and the third, about the size of the sun. Their near approach to the surface appeared to be most remarkable. That they did come below the clouds and soar instead of continuing their southeasterly course is also curious. The lights were in sight for over two minutes and were carefully observed by three people whose accounts agree as to the details.

Lt. Frank H. Schofield, later to become Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific Fleet, aboard the U.S.S. Supply off of the eastern coast of Korea, February 28, 1904

Name:
Major Donald E. Keyhoe

Quotes:

The Air Force had put out a secret order for its pilots to capture UFOs.

If, in fact, we are able to find life or to answer the question Are we alone? then that certainly is grand enough and noble enough to be the enduring legacy of our civilization.

NASA, October 1999.

With control of the universe at stake, a crash program is imperative. We produced the A-bomb, under the huge Manhattan Project, in an amazingly short time. The needs, the urgency today are even greater. The Air Force should end UFO secrecy, give the facts to scientists, the public, to Congress. Once the people realize the truth, they would back, even demand a crash program... for this is one race we dare not lose...

Statement in 1953.

Russia and the U. S. have announced they are definitely planning several space machines. So it’s quite possible that the first space ships or satellites may encounter other interplanetary machines, manned or otherwise. Our space devices may even be closely approached by such alien machines.

For the last six months we have been working with a congressional committee investigating official secrecy concerning proof that UFOs are real machines under intelligent control. From a live national broadcast, on CBS in 1958. Keyhoe had an approved script to follow, but when deviated unexpectedly from it with this astonishing statement, the audio was cut-off in the middle of his sentence, for reasons of national security.

Keyhoe was in the United States Marine Corp.

Name:
Major General E.B. LeBaily

Quotes:

Many of the reports that cannot be explained have come from intelligent and technically well-qualified individuals whose integrity cannot be doubted.

As USAF Director of Information, in a September 28, 1965, letter to USAF Scientific Advisory Board.

Name:
Major General Joe W. Kelly

Quotes:

Air Force interceptors still pursue Unidentified Flying Objects as a matter of national security to this country and to determine technical aspects involved.

Kelly made this statement in 1957.

Name:
Major Gerald Smith

Quotes:

[There was] something definite in the sky...If it had proved to be hostile we would have destroyed it.

Smith, USAF, was one of the F-106 pilots scrambled under orders from NORAD (North American Air Defense Command) to investigate a UFO over West Palm Beach, Florida on September 14, 1972. The UFO was viewed through binoculars by the FAA supervisor, George Morales, sighted by an Eastern Airlines captain, police and several civilians, as well as being tracked on radar by Miami International Airport and Homestead AFB.

Name:
Major Jeremiah Boggs

Quotes:

We were naturally anxious to get hold of one of the [UFOs]. We told pilots to do practically anything in reason, even if they had to grab one by the tail.

Major Jeremiah Boggs was in the U.S. Air Force.

Name:
Major Robert White

Quotes:

There are things out there! There absolutely is! White exclaiming over the radio about a UFO encounter taking place on a 58 mile high X-15 flight on July 17, 1962. I have no idea what it could be. It was greyish in color and about thirty to forty feet away.

He later reported

Name:
Mark McCandlish, US Air Force, Aerospace Illustrator

Quotes:

This [US made] antigravity propulsion system-this flying saucer-was one of three that were in this hangar at Norton Air Force Base. They called [it] the Alien Reproduction Vehicle [ARV], also nicknamed the Flux Liner.

From Disclosure, Steven M. Greer. McCandlish was a US Air Force aerospace illustrator.

Name:
Sergeant Dan Morris

Quotes:

UFOs are both extraterrestrial and manmade...It’s not that our government doesn’t want us to know that there are other people on other planets. What the people in power don’t want us to know is that this free energy [from energy generators developed with UFO technology] is available to everybody. So secrecy about the UFOs is because of the energy issue. When this knowledge is found out by the people, they will demand that our government release this technology, and it will change the world.

From Disclosure, Steven M. Greer. Sergeant Morris was a US Air Force NRO operative.

Name:
Sergeant Major Robert O. Dean

Quotes:

Wright Patterson Air Force Base... was the headquarters for the foreign technology division of the U.S. Air Force. It later became the headquarters for the alien technology division of the U.S. Air Force. Wright Patterson, for many years was the central repository of not only the hardware, but some of the little bodies and even some of the living crew members who had been retrieved. But it became very clear after a time that there wasn’t enough room at Wright Patterson Air Force Base. We literally filled up hangar after hangar with hardware. We’re storing it now in at least three different Air Force bases and much of it is being kept underground at a place not too far from Las Vegas just beyond Nellis Air Force Base which is repeatedly referred to as Dreamland, Groom Lake, or Site 51. That, today is one of the biggest repositories of hardware.

...They made...a recommendation to General Limnitzer, the American four star general that I worked for. And they suggested this is so sensitive ... The conclusions that we have reached, we believe could be...substantially earthshaking to the people unless they’re prepared for it. We believe at this point that this should be given the highest classification NATO has [which] at that time was and still is Cosmic Top Secret.

From a videotaped interview in which Dean discussed SHAPE’s alleged report entitled An Assessment based on a 3-year investigation of UFOs being tracked on radar over central Europe. Dean was a former NATO intelligence analyst for SHAPE (Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe)

Name:
US Air Force Lieutenant / Professor Robert Jacobs

Quotes:

So this thing [UFO] fires a beam of light at the warhead, hits it and then it moves to the other side and fires another beam of light. And the warhead tumbles out of space. What message would I interpret from that? [The UFOs were telling us] don’t mess with nuclear warheads. Major Mannsman said, You are never to speak of this again. After an article [about the incident years later], people would call and start screaming at me. One night somebody blew up my mailbox.

***Can you either prove or disprove, with scientific evidence, that God or UFO’s exist?***

I can prove that UFOs do not exist. The matter is really simple. If, for instance, you are walking along a path, it might be a short path or long path, it doesn’t matter to the story at all, in fact, the path may have bushes all around it, either tall or short bushes, but no Jeb Bushes, because he is no longer Governor of Florida, anyway, you are walking along this path and see a UFO. Now right away, you would say, “Hey, that is a UFO.” but at that point you would have identified it, therefore making it no longer a UFO but just an ordinary FO (Flying Object) as you have identified it , thereby making it forever unavailable for the designation Unidentified, and hence, no longer a UFO. See, I told you it would be simple. Now, if you were walking along that same path and you saw God...

Jason Brudereck: No frolf involved in UFO sightings at French Creek

I’ve frolfed at French Creek State Park.

(To the nonfrolfers, that means I played Frisbee golf there. The park has two scenic frolf courses.)

But a disc of another sort was spotted there last week.

According to western Pennsylvania UFO hunter Stan Gordon, three witnesses watched a yellow sphere on Thursday.

Gordon said he interviewed two of the three witnesses, both separately. They gave similar accounts.

At 7:52 p.m., a man was at a stop sign near his house when he noticed “a solid, large yellow sphere hovering low on the horizon.”

The man said, “It took my breath away, as I had never seen anything like it.”

The sphere wasn’t actually emitting a yellow light but was yellow itself.

The object was not bright like a star or like Venus can sometimes be.

At this point, I’m going to tell you there’s no punch line here.

If you’re waiting for me to suggest the witnesses were actually watching someone frolf, it’s not going to happen.

The witnesses are serious about this and so is Gordon, who declined to identify the witnesses.
Superbowl XLIII Champions Football

“The man was very baffled by what he was seeing, and he realized that he needed someone else to confirm what he was seeing,” Gordon reported. “He was so excited that he left his vehicle motor running and ran to a neighbor’s house to tell them what he was watching.”

The man’s neighbors, a husband and wife, came outside to see the object.

The three then saw a blue flashing light at the top of the object, which then changed shape so that it looked like a top.

The object then silently disappeared, either vanishing or suddenly moving away so fast that it appeared to vanish.

The neighbor said the object seemed to “just shut off and nothing was there.”

Gordon and the witnesses want to know if anyone else saw this object.

UFOs are actually fairly common in the area.

The Mutual UFO Network (www.mufon.com) reports four UFOs were spotted in Berks so far this year.

That doesn’t count the French Creek incident, since the network has not received a report on that.

On Jan. 8, a worker at Reading Regional Airport with 8,000 hours of flight experience saw a circular UFO with a green light for about 10 seconds.

That’s too far away from French Creek to be a disc from a frolfer.

In my standard archaeology news search this morning (while at work) I spotted story (maybe on a page I visited from the search results) about a blogger who claims to have a pic of a UFO shadowing the launch of the Kepler space telescope.
