air force general 332.air.003 Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire

Three quotes:

1. "While flying with several other USAF pilots over Germany in 1957, we sighted numerous radiant flying discs above us. We couldn't tell how high they were. We couldn't get anywhere near their altitude."
"While working with a camera crew supervising flight testing of advanced aircraft at Edward's Air Force Base, California, the camera crew filmed the landing of a strange disc object that flew in over their heads and landed on a dry lake nearby. A camera crewman approached the saucer, it rose up above the area and flew off at a speed faster than any known aircraft."
---NASA astronaut, L. Gordon Cooper.

I’ve always enjoyed this quote. The man was well-trained and well educated and was selected in a very competitive program to be an American astronaut; the gate-keepers he faced would only let someone through if they had the “right stuff.” The man had nothing to gain by his willingness to speak the truth, and indeed, had all too much to lose.

2. "It is true that I was denied access to a facility at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, because I never got in. I can't tell you what was inside. We both know about the rumors (concerning a captured UFO and crew members). I have never seen what I would call a UFO, but I have intelligent friends who have."
---US Senator, US Air Force General, and candidate for President, Barry Goldwater, quoted from a letter he wrote dated April 11, 1979.


The man was an Air Force Officer and was a candidate for the Presidency of the United States. What did he have to gain from making these comments? Yet – with those who accept the probability of alien visitations typically mocked and belittled – he had plenty to lose! Plus, he infer that despite his stature – he was a Senator from Arizona – he was denied access to a portion of a military base which suggests something very important must be hidden there and, further, Goldwater didn’t cover it up to protect his ego but, rather, was compelled to speak the truth.
