of success which he has experienced since his separation from the Army
in November 1955. The Air Force is further blamed for a lack of interest
in an UFO sighting which he reported 7 February l955, in California.
As he has done on a number of previous occasions, specifically 19
December 1958, Nr. repeats a request for a visit from an Air
Force representative. lr. has held several jobs as an elec-
tronics technician with both the government and industry. For some
reason not stated he has not been retained on any job for extensive
periods. Mr. infers these inabilities to retain jobs is due
to harrassing by the government as a result of his reporting the UFO
in l955. The witness further states that on two occasions private
ventures in the way of electronics repair jobs (Tv and radio) have
fallen through. These failures are also attributed to the government.

as probably an experimental aircraft. Mr. in none of his
subsequent communications to the Air Force, has divulged any additional
information concerning this sighting. This case is more than five
years old, and in view of a lack of additional information AfIC has
no reason to change this original evaluation.
14. S sighting of 1955 gave no evidence of national
threat and in view of the age of this case, AfIc has no intention of
sending anyone to talk with Hr.et It is suggested that the
witness be informed that the case has been reviewed by ArIC and that
the original evaluation, in view of no new evidence, holds firm.
