1. As you know, this Center is responsible for performing a scientific

and technical evaluation of all reports of unidentified flying objects in

accordance with the provisions of AFR 20082, dated 5 February 1958. These
evaluations of necessity can be no better than the reported information with
which we must work.

2 Prior to going into any discussion of deficiencies in the present
program as we see it, I believe a brief review of some background information
is in order:

a. Forty-nine (49) UFO organizations exist in the Zone of Interior
in addition to many individual self-proclaimed experts wiose affiliations @
specific intentions are not clear. It is clear, however, that for various
reasons these individuals and agencies such as National Investigations

Committee on Aerial Phemomena, Civilian Saucer Intelligence and Aerial

Phenomena Research Organization, etc., feel a need for, and do everything
possible to discredit the Air Force, its investigations, and its ultimste
evaluation of reported sightings. These organizations, and for the mst part

individuals, are well equipped, and do in fact conduct a very comprehensive

field investigation.

be. The people reporting UFO's are for the most part honest American
citizens ranging all the way from relatively uninformed men in the street
to eminent authorities, such as Mr. Townsend, Assistant to the Assistant

Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, who recently reported

a sighting from the Washington, D. Ce area. These people feel strongly

about what they saw and normally report sightings in a strictly patriotic

interest. A prompt investigation, sound analysis, and accurate report
relating to what they saw leaves them with a feeling of pride in what they
did and in the service that is most concerned with their defense. A sloppy
investigation, evaluation based upon inadequate facts, and subsequent effort
to discredit their story makes them vulnerable to propaganda expounded by
the various UFO organizations.

ce Some of the UFO organizations, such as the National Investi-
gations Committee on Aerial Phenomena, well know the deficiencies in the
Air Force Program ani take advantage of every opportunity to place us in
a defensive position. In fact, it is understood that Captain Ruppelt, who
was responsible for the ATIC part of the UFO Program from early 1951 until
September 1953, is now atfiliated with NICAP. In this organization alone 4)
exe-marine corps Major Kehoe (-aB8Tittem-advensurtety and Captain Ruppelt,
an ex-ATIC specialist, represent a formidable team from which plenty of
trouble can be expected in the future. Both appear to be in the business
for the money involved. Comparable conditions involving eminent authorities
of questionable intentions exist in other of the 49 UFO organizations.

3- In light of the background information provided above, these

deficiencies take on their proper meaning.

ae Investigations conducted by various Air Force installations
in many cases (and particularly those claiming close observation or landing
of UFO's) are inadequate to serve our needs for prompt and accurate evalua-
tion. This is apparently so for these reasons:

(1) Due to knowledge of the official Air Force position that

we have yet to uncover a specific threat from outer space, a degree of

complacency has crept into the program resulting in sometning less than

UNCLASSIFIED ats

/

atta a mA

: Manosigit +

@ positive aggressive appro © uncover the facts we so badly need to
make prompt and comprehensive evaluations.

(2) As a result in part from the complacency indiceted above,
considerable time is lost in getting investigations under way, and all too
frequently the investigation, once conducted and reported on, appears to

have been performed by the most available individual without regard to his
competence as an investigator, and ability to properly handle the public
relations aspect so important to this program.

(3) As indicated in paragraph 2c above, many of the private
and organized UFO investigators apparently in competition with the Air
Face appesr on the scene well equipped to comiuct a field investigation.
Invariably they have geiger counters, magnetometers and various sampling
equipment with them and they use it. Not that this means much, but it is
impressive to the uninitiated, and particularly so when the Air Force ine
vestigator later appears on the scene armed with nothing but a notebook and
pencil for use in interrogating witnesses. Some basic factual information
obtained from instrument readings would indeed be useful in many cases.

(4) Investigators selected apparently with some degree of
random from Air Force installations and in many cases obviously unskilled
in conducting a comprehensive investigation, appear only too often to be
guided merely by the questions posed in AFR 200-2. When these are answered
they consider their job done without regard to the overall questions that
must in the final analysis be answered (i.e. - what was it? does it
represent a threat? etc).

(5) The final preparation and routing of investigative reports
through devious command and mail channels is Sekt tothe dy Slow especially
in those highly publicized cases wherein DOD starts getting inquiries for

analysis type information as soon as public press, radio, and television
releases have been made. In many cases in the past this pressure for
information has built up to Congressional inquiries prior to ATIC having
the basic informetion from which a decent appraisal of the sighting could
be made.

(6) In numerous instances in the past UFO sightings that
have drawn a great amount of public interest (have been publicized widely
in the press, on radio, television, etc.) have never been officially re-
ported to ATIC. Invariably it is this type of case that is used by the UFO
organizations to point up the inadequacy of the job the Air Force is doing.

Furthermore, they bring these same cases up time and time again in an effort

to force us to reveal our findings because they know full well that we have
none. When a reply goes back that the particular case cited has never been
officially reported to the Air Force it strengthens their case that they're
doing a better job for the country than the Air Force supported by their
taxes, ad infinitum.

he In order to strengthen ATIC support of the UFO Program, I have
directed some internal actions wich should minimize certain existing
deficiencies. These are:

a. Development of a small but competent trained and equipped
group of investigators within ATIC to provide supplementary investigative
capability in those cases involving keen scientific or public interest.

be Established arrangements wherein ATIC investigators may move
to and from Air Force installations nearest scene of sightings rapidly

using CRT aircraft and crews.

¢. Preparation of an SOP addendum to AFR 200-2 which will guide

5e In addition to those actions indicated in paragraph | above, I
feel strongly that we must move to button up the implementation of AFR 200<2
in the field and at the same time obtain some additional cost information
which may ultimately be used in our defense if such becomes necessary. I

have attached hereto a suggested all major commands message which I recommend

PART I. Reference Air Force Regulation 200#2, dated 5 February’1956,
Subject: "Unidentified Flying Objects," as amended by AFR 200-2A, dated
3 July 1958.

PART IJ. In spite of the fact that the USAF has yet to uncover specific
evidence of Unidentified Flying Objects that represent a threat from outer
space, considerable public interest and pressure on this particular pro-
grem continues. At the present time some 9 UFO organizations and many
self-proclaimed experts are actively engaged in exploiting UFO sightings

for their own, and in some cases, questionable interests. For reasons

known best to them they al) seem intent upon discrediting the job the USAF
is doing in this programe In spite of this we mist maintain a positive
approach to uncover specific information of scientific or technicel interest
to the nation.
PART III. To insure understanding and compliance with the existing pro-

: visions of AFR 20082, as amended, the following elements of that direce

: tive are re-emphasized and clarified.

&e Prompt reporting and investigation of 31] UFO sightings by

the AF installation nearest to the point of sighting is the responsibility
of the commander of that installation. Such reporting and investigation

includes those cases publicized in the press or on radio and television

in the vicinity of that installation even though no report of the inci-
dent has been otherwise received. In all cases copies of reports will

f be referred directly and expeditiously to ATIC. |

“=

PART III. be Selection of competent investigators, capable of applying

guidance outlined in par. 5 of referenced regulation is essential. In
all cases the investigator should be authorized direct telephone contect
with the Aerial Phenomena Group, Headquarters, ATIC, Wright-Patterson
AFB, Ohio, extension 6<9216, for the purpose of reporting high priority
findings or preliminary conclusions.
PART IV. The following instructions supplement the provisions of re-
ferenced regulation.

&e Where witnesses report close proximity to UFO's (within
100 yards), or claim evidence of rediation, investigators wil] be equipped
with radesafe type radiation detectors to measure intensity of radiation
in vicinity of sighting. Where such instrumentation is employed, report
to ATIC will include type and model of instrument used, specific points
where measurements were taken, intensity of radiation, and relationship

to normal background in the area.

be In all reports to ATIC the name and rank of the investigator
and the telephone number at which he can be reached will be included.

ce All final reports of UFO sightings will include a brief
Statement of the total USAF resources consumed in investigation of this
particular sighting. This to include man hours, dollars spent, miles

traveled in military aircraft or vehicles, material damaged, destroyed

or consumed.

1. During the past year the investigation of UFO sightines as outlined in
AFR 200-2 has left much to be desired. We are taking positive action to correct
present deficiencies in the investigative program; however, it is deemed essential
that an ATIC task force be established to supplement base level investigations in
those cases where considerable scientific or public interest exists.

2. To provide a flexible investigative force which will not cause a
particular drain on any one office within ATIC the Commander has approved the
establishment of a volunteer force which will work under the direction of the
Aerial Phenomena Group of the Air Science Division when actually engaged in field
investigation of UFO sightings. The general ground rules for their employment are
as follows:

a. A total group of from 18 to 20 volunteers will be selected from
company grade officers and NCO's presently assigned within ATIC. This group will
for the most part be people who do not have much opportunity to travel during the
normal course of their duties at ATIC. Once selected they will be given a 20 hour
course of instruction in interrogative and investigative procedures and will be

checked out on equipment pertinent thereto. Once trained two of these individuals

1. The Commander has just approved establishment of a volunteer force of
18-20 UFO investigators from personnel resources presently available to ATIC. This
group will be locally trained and equipped, and will be used to perform primary
or supplementary investigation of UFO sightings of the greatest scientific or
public interest.

2. Due to remoteness of many areas of UFO sightings, tentative arrangements
have been made to employ CRT aircraft and crews to move these people to and from
the AF installation nearest to the point of sighting. Further support required
will be provided by that installation as outlined in AFR 200-2 dated 5 February 1958

3. It has been determined that TDY costs to support this investigative force
will run in the order of $5000.00 per annum. (See basis for estimate attached
hereto). These funds should be programmed and allocated as a separate entity to
the Aerial Phenomena Group in support of the UFO Program. In this regard the
Aerial Phenomena Group is attempting to compile valid cost data pertaining to
overall USAF support of the UFO Program as stipulated in AFR 200-2. Such cost
data obtained from all participating agencies plus ATIC will be used to force a
decision on just how far the Air Force should go in the UFO Program when compared
to all other programs essential to Air Force defense of the nation.

4, It is desired that you advise on the amount of TDY funds which could be
made available in support of this program during the 3rd and 4th quarters of FY1959

and what if any problems you envision in allocating $5000.00 for p aempers of this

1. In accordance with the provisions of AFR 200-2 dated
5 February 1958, Subject: Unidentified Flying Objects, this Center
is charged with scientifically and technically analyzing and
evaluating all reports of UFO's. Additionally we are allowed to make
such primary and supplementary field investigations as are necessary
to establish the facts from which an adequate analysis and evaluation
can be made.

2. Certain shortcomings in investigative endeavors during the
past year have made it necessary to establish a group of some 18-20
specially trained and equipped investigators from personnel resources
presently available to ATIC. These people will be held in ready
reserve and moved into the field onfhirly short notice to assist in,
or conduct, investigation of those sightings of particular public or
scientific interest.

3. Due to the difficulty in rapidly reaching certain USAF
facilities by commercial means, and stringent limitations which have
been imposed on TDY travel funds this year, I find it necessary to
seek out those other possible means of transport which would offer

some possibility in support of

the UFO investigative program.

Specifically we would Mike to make maximum use of CRT aircraft and
crews for delivery and pick up of an occasional 1-2 investigators to
Air Force installations in the ZI. Under AFR 200-2 the AF installation
nearest the point of UFO sighting will provide further support required
from there.

4k, Past experience has shown that the bulk of our most critical
sightings have taken place in the Northeast portion of the United States.
It is envisioned that a maximum of 50 delivery and pick up flights
would occur during any given year or roughly four per month. Distances
should normally not exceed 6-800 miles each way.

5. We have tentatively established a project nick-named "Horse
Fly" which will have to do with movement of investigators to and from
points of interest. That nick-name would be used in any request for
military CRT aircraft associated with UFO investigations.

6. With your concurrence I would like very much to have Colonel
L. T. Glaser of our Air Science Division brief you further on the needs
of our UFO program. This we will do at your convenience. After such
a briefing I would be interested in knowing your views relative to

amount and priority of support we may expect to obtain through the

local CRT media.

Mrs. William H. Fitzgerald,

Sheffield Lake, Ohio

Dear Madam,

The report of your unusual sighting has been noted in this morning's
Cleveland Plane Dealer. I ama private researcher in the field of
Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO's) and have many questions in my mind
to ask you but will direct this note to just one problem.

Our studies have indicated that some people have had their eyes strained
or hurt as well as other physical ailments which presumable resulted
from observing UFO's at close range and for an extended period of time.
However, you viewed the object only a short time and it is suspected
and hoped that you will suffer no ill effects. However, if you have
any aftereffects at all, I am suggesting that you secure the immediate
services of a Doctor. If you then and can secure an affadavit that

! your ailment is due to the viewing of a UFO this can be of great pro-

I tection and value to the American people.

Our trouble, Madem, is that your and my government tries to tell us
that UFO's do not exist,= or that you saw nothing. We know better,
and we do know that this situation is not a desirable one. Hence, our
efforts at present is directed to securing any lever to pry open the
truth from our government departments, primarily the Air Force and the

Defense Departments. Such an affadavit that I have suggested could be
of utmost value.

Too, if you wish I would like to know if any government agent covered
your vicinity with a geiger counter.

Most sincerely,

GE: (0) UFO Progran

1. The attached study summarizes the UFO problem in ATIC as
we see it. Even though responsibilities in this program are well
defined the scope of the operation seems to have grown by topsy
rather than design. The fact that the USAF has the only
governmentally sanctioned activity engaged in UFO analysis and
evaluation, brings us reports from all over the world - including some
countries behind the Iron Curtain. This fact plus the amount of
public interest involved essentially places ATIC in a rather
uncomfortable focal position.

2. For those reasons indicated above we must I believe,
lay on the line certain shortcomings of the program and request
those actions necessary to make the USAF position a defensible one.
If Headquarters cannot approve those nominal things that we ask for
then, at least we may force a decision on how much of the taxpayers
money should be spent on this program, or cause other action to be
taken against questionable UFO organizations to reduce the scope of
USAF activity.

3. The approval of program outlined in basic study is
recommended.

FACT SHEET

UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT "UNKNOWNS"
STILL BELOW 2 PERCENT IN LATEST 1270 CASES

According to latest information tabulated by Air Force authori-
tiles charged with investigation of Unidentified Flying Objects,
i270 new UFO reports were investigated during the period July l,j
1957 through July 31, 1958. More than 84 percent of the reported
UFO sightings were definitely established as natural phenomena,
hoaxes, birds, or man=made objects. Insuffinsient data was available
to thoroughly analyze and evaluate 14 percent of the reports and
less than 2 percent were classied as unknowns,

Although investigations were completed 9n these "unknown" cases
without positive or final conclusions, nothing was found to sub-
stantiate any claims that such sightings were interplanetary
visitors, or so-called "Flying Saucers”.

A sighting is considered unknown when the report contains suf-
ficient information to draw at least one valid conclusion from the
facts available but when the description of the reported object or
its movements cannot be related to the norm. Refinements in Air
Force investigative processes, however, have resulted in a steady
decline in the number of UFO reports placed in this category. Dur-
ing the early months of the Air Force's investigation, some 20 per-
cent of the reports were classified as unknown, These unknowns were
reduced to 9 percent in 1953 and 1954, 3 percent in 1955, and 1.8
percent during the first six months of this year. It is believed
that specific conclusions could be drawn for all reports if addi-
tional observational data were provided by individuals originating
these reports, Also, the Air Force believes that there will always

be a small number of unknowns due to high altitude phenomena which
are strange to the untrained eye.

The 1270 new reports during the past thirteen months increases

the total Air Force investigations conducted since June 1947 to
more than 6,000,

All investigations of reported unusual aerial objects are con-
ducted by the U.S. Air Force Air Defense Command personnel. These
reports are reviewed by a select scientific advisory group at the
Air Technical Intelligence Center which analyzes and evaluates, by
scientific means, all information assembled by investigative teams.

Air Force on the subject of Unidentified Flying Objects.

His services and those of other eminently qualified civilian
scientists are utilized if deemed necessary by the Air Force to
furt...2 its investigation or individual cases or to perform cetailed
studies of the general subject. As an example, a panel of scien-
tific consultants was called upon by the Air Force in 1953 to make

an over-all examination of investigative procedures and findings on
specific reports,

The panel said at that time "the evidence presented on UFOS
showed no indication that these phenomena constitute a direct threat
to national security." Further there was no "residuum of cases
which indicates phenomena which are attributable to foreign arti-
facts capable of hostile acts." The panel concluded that national
security agencies should take immediate steps to strip the Unidenti-
fied Flying Objects of the special status they have been given and
the aura of mystery they have unfortunately acquired.”

In line with this recommendation, the Air Force periodically
has made available through the national press and radio~-television
agencies, information on investigations and findings pertaining to
cases which have received national attention. Only in a few in-
stances were sighting. reports classified to keep from comprom‘’ sing
some elements in our Air Defense System, end no reporss of sight
ings have been classified because they corntain some authentic proof
or even reasonable inferences that UFOS were real. Moreover, there
are no Air Force documents which prove the existence of flying
Saucers or show that the earth is being observed, visited or
threatened by machines from other planets,

However, because of limited personnel resources and to pre-
clude possible embarrassment to individuals who have assisted Air
Force investigators or who have originated reports later found to

be erroneous, the Air Force does not honor individual requests for
detailed analyses of specific cases,

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

1. At 1300 hours this date, a meeting was held in the Air Science
Division regarding the feasibility of establishing a volunteer force of
UFO investigators from existing ATIC resources. Persons in attendance
at this meeting were:

Colonel L. T. Glaser - AFCIN-4E4
Major R. J. Friend - AFCIN-4E4
Captain T. C. James - AFCIN-4X5c
Captain E.R. Martin - AFCIN-4X5b
CWO W.T. Thomas - AFCIN-4Xha
Mr. R. E. Hawes - AFCIN-4X4b

2. Colonel Glaser briefed all conferees on present shortcomings within
the UFO Program as outlined under the provisions of Air Force Regulation
200-2. He then revealed to the conferees the essence of our proposed plan
for improving reports and investigations within the overall UFO Program.

3. CWO Thomas indicated that he could foresee no particular diffi-
culty in obtaining necessary volunteers to carry out our proposed program,
provided that the people were sufficiently briefed on shortcomings within
the UFO Program and the need for further ATIC participation in this program.
Mr. Hawes could foresee no particular difficulty in setting up a twenty hour
training program for UFO investigators provided he received the active
support of the Aerial Phenomena Group. The main problem that he could see
was one of scheduling which we all felt could be satisfactorily worked out
once the program was approved. Captain Martin could foresee no particular
difficulty in providing the basic equipment necessary for six flyaway kits
of UFO investigative equipment. He indicated that due to lack of procure-
ment money at this time we would of necessity have to provide standard
Air Force stock equipment for these kits. Captain James indicated that
the CRT aircraft situation was not too good at this time and that we
could anticipate some difficulty because of the number of pilots to be
serviced by the few aircraft available. Nevertheless he felt that some
support could be obtained through CRT channel, provided that the necessary
Command approval was obtained, and provided that our requirements were
made known to the Base Commander of Wright Patterson Air Force Base. in
this regard he indicated that we would probably be able to move a lot faster
if we could provide the necessary money for commercial transportation. He
pointed out that in view of the nominal nature of the program being
proposed and the present limitations on TDY funds, this would probably
not be an acceptable solution at this time and that our only recourse
for a nominal program would probably be to make the best use that we
could of CRT capability.

SUBJECT: UFO Program
1. After some four months of working with the UFO Program, as oute
lined in AFR 200-2, I find certain deficiencies in this Program which in

2. In order to appreciate the deficiencies in the UFO Program as
presently constituted, certain background facts are necessary. These are:

@. AFR 200-2, dated 5 February 1955, essentially stipulates the
following:

(1) The objectives of the UFO Program are to first, deter-
mine the possible threat of UFO's to the security of the United Stetes and
its forces; second, to determine the technical or scientific character-
istics of any such UFO's; third, to explain or identify all UFO sightings.

(2) Reporting and investigation of UFO's is the responsi-
bility of Commanders of the Air Force Base nearest the point of sighting
as supplemented by the 1006th AISS.

(3) ATIC will analyze and evaluate all reports of UFO's
emanating from the ZI and overseas areas. ATIC may independently, or in
participation with pertinent USAF activities, conduct supplementary in-
vestigations.

(4) The Office of Information Services of the Secretary of

the Air Force (SAFIS) will handle public relations and press releases per-
taining to the UFO Program. The Office of Legislative Liaison will handle
Congressional inquiries. Both of these agencies look to ATIC for specific
answers pertaining to sightings and evaluations thereof.

7 (5) Prompt reporting and rapid identificetion of UFO's is
/ essential in the Air Force and public interest.

UNCLASSIFIED ee

' Messrs -

2. be During the year ending 1 November 1958, 1069 sightings of
UFO's were reported to ATIC. One hundred and ten of these were foreign
Sightings leaving 959 reported within the ZI. Of these 959, approximately
20%, or 192, should have been investigated further by trained and equipped
experts to remove them from the unknown or insufficient data category.
(Most I.D. or UNK UFO's are classed as such only because specific data
does not exist to classify them otherwise)

Ge Forty-nine (9) UFO organizations (See Tab A) exist in the
2I in addition to many individual self-proclaimed experts whose affilia=
tions or specific intentions are not clear. It is clear, however, that
for various reasons these individuals and agencies such as NICAP, CSI,
APRO, etc, feel a need for, and do everything possible to discredit the
Air Force, its investigations, and its ultimate evaluation of reported
Sightingse These organizations, and for the most part individuals, are
well equipped, and do in fact conduct a very comprehensive, although
biased, field investigation. These generally result in well documented
reports which are used for their chosen purposes (See Tab B). Some, such
as Mr. Haber (See Tab C) for reasons known only to him, take advantage of
every opportunity to incite others.

d. The people reporting UFO's are for the most part honest
American citizens renging all the way from relatively uninformed men in
the street to eminent authorities, such as Mr. Townsend, Assistant to the
Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, who recently
reported a sighting from the Washington, D. C. area. These people feel
strongly about what they saw and normally report sightings in a strictly
patriotic interest. A prompt investigation, sound analysis, and accurate
report relating to what they saw leaves them with a feeling of pride in
what they did and in the service that is most concerned with their defense.
A sloppy investigation, evaluation based upon inadequate facts, and sub-
sequent effort to discredit their stavy makes them vulnerable to propa-
ganda expounded by the various UFO organizations.

€. Some of the UFO organizaticns, such as NICAP, well know the
deficiencies in the Air Force Program and take advantaye of every oppor-
tunity to place us in a defensive position. In fact, it is understood
that Captain Ruppelt, who was responsible for the ATIC part of the UFO
Program from early 1951 until September 1953, is now affiliated with
NICAP. In this organization alone exemarine corps Major Kehoe, a poli-
tical adventurist, and Captain Ruppelt, an ex-ATIC specialist, represent
a formidable team from which plenty of trouble can be expected in the
future. Both appear to be in the business for the money involved. Come
parable conditions involving eminent authorities of questionable inten-
tions exist in other of the 19 UFO organizations.

3- In light of the backgroun& information provided above these
deficiencies take on their proper meaning.

&@. Investigations conducted by various Air Force installations
in many cases (and particularly those claiming close observation or landing
of UFO's) are inadequate to serve our needs for prompt and accurate evalua-
tion. This is apparently so for these reasons:

INCLASSIFIC. mot

a nce .

3 Ge (1) Due to knowledge of the official Air Force position
that we have yet to uncover a specific threat from outer space (See Tab
D) a degree of complacency has crept into the program resulting in some-
thing less than a positive, aggressive, approach to uncover the facts we
so badly need to make prompt and comprehensive evaluations.

(2) As a result in part from the complacency indicated
above, considerable time is lost in getting investigations under way, and
all too frequently the investigation, once conducted and reported on,
appears to have been performed by the most available individual without
regard to his competence as an investigator, and ability to properly
handle the public relations aspect so important to this program. We have
in fact received reports where well skilled investigators, either private
or affiliated with UFO organizations, have beat us to the scene, primed
the key witnesses on what to say, and actually remained present during
the investigations by Air Force representatives.

(3) As indicated in paragraph 2c above, many of the private

and organized UFO investigators apparently in competition with the Air
Force appear on the scene well equipped to conduct a field investigation.
Invariably they have geiger counters, magnetometers and various sampling
equipment with them and they use it. Not that this means much, but it is
impressive to the uninitiated, and particularly so when the Air Force in-

" vestigator later appears on the scene armed with nothing but a notebook

| and pencil for use in interrogating witnesses. Some basic factual infor-
mation obtained from instrument readings would indeed be useful in many
CaSeSe

(4) Investigators selected apparently with some degree of
random from Air Force installations, and in some cases obviously unskilled
in conducting a comprehensive investigation, appear only too often to be
guided merely by the questions posed in AFR 200-2. When these are answered
they consider their job done without regard to the overall questions that
must in the final analysis be answered. (i.e. - what was it? does it
represent a threat? etc.)

(5) The final preparation and routing of investigative re-
ports through devious commend and mail channels is excruciatingly slow
especially in those highly publicized cases wherein DOD starts getting
. inquiries for analysis type information as soon as public press, radio,
and television releases have been made. In many cases in the past this
pressure for information has built up to Congressional inquiries prior
to ATIC having the basic information from which a decent appraisal of the
Sighting could be made,

(6) In numerous instances in the past UFO sightings that
have drawn a great amount of public interest (have been publicized widely
in the press, on radio, television, etc.) have never been officially re-
ported to ATIC. Invariably it is this type of case that is used by the
UFO organizations to point up the inadequacy of the job the Air Force is
doinge Furthermore, they bring these same cases up time and time again
in an effort to force us to reveal our findings because they know full
well that we have none. When a reply goes back that the particular case

UNCLASSIFIED gt

_ ae a — * -— —

-_ =

® wNCLASSIFIED ©

cited has never been officially reported to the Air Force, it strengthens

their case that they're doing a better job for the country than the Air
Force supported by their taxes, ad infinitum.

he The information and deficiencies outlined above appear pretty
grim and they are. There is a solution, however, to our problem and I
believe that it can be had by quite simply applying an aggressive app-
roach, and by comnitting a nominal amount of resources to the job. Fune-
damentally, I believe that if we are going to properly fulfill ATIC's
responsibility in the UFO Program in the public interest, then we must
come up with scientifically valid facts which cannot be readily refuted.
These should cover as many cases as possible, and particularly those of
prime public interest. The following proposals are offered and discussed:

ae That we "fire up* the investigative and reporting action at

base level through the med ipty of an all major commands message from Hqe,
USAF. This to:

(1) Reaffirm the urgency of prompt and adequate investiga-
tive and reporting action.

(2) Require official reporting and investigation of sightings
announced by local press, radio, or television.

(3) Require use of basic assay type instrumentation in con-
duct of investigationse

(4) Advise of early distribution of investigative and in-

terrogation SOP addendum to AFR 200-2 for use in conduct of field investi-
gations e«

be That we address ourselves immediately to preparation of a
comprehensive SOP which will properly guide otherwise unskilled investi-
gators at base level in the proper conduct of an UFO type investigation.

This to be distributed as an addendum to AFR 200-2 with local reproduc-
tion authorized.

ce That from presently available resources within ATIC we create
a@ volunteer force of some 18-20 military personnel to aid in field investi-
gation of the more critical UFO cases.

(1) We propose here to use company grade and non-commissior d
officers who do not have much opportunity for TDY travel and field work
during the course of their duties at ATIC. This group will be given a
twenty hour course of instruction by our military training department
under the overall guidance of the Aerial Phenomena Group of the Air Science
Division, with emphasis on investigative and interrogative procedures and
the proper use of equipment pertinent thereto (See Tab #).

(2) Two members of the ATIC UFO volunteer group will be
placed on alert each week and will be on call for critical investigative
work required during the week. Rotation of alert duty will be handled on
a duty roster maintained by the Aerial Pheno ny Groupe It is estimated

UNCLASSIFI Zih

: {_ Of Lt

be es (2) UNCLASSIFIED

that each man may expect to investigate 5 cases per year. TDY will in
each case be for approximately 3 days. “i

(3) Approximately six sets of investigative equipment will

be made up into suit-case type flyaway kits. These will be kept in a
constant state of readiness by the Aerial Phenomena Group and will be
promptly issued to investigators for use in each case. These sets will
include the following items of equipment:

(a) Tape recorder.

(bo) Assay type geiger counter,

(c) Camera and film.

(ad) Transit or compass.

(e) Swipe test filter papers.

(f) Earth and swipe test sample containers,

(g¢) Binoculars.

(h) USC and GS maps of the area of interest.
(i) Interrogation and investigative SOP's,.
(j) Necessary paper, pencils, etc.

| (4) Orders for TDY travel will be initiated by the Aerial
Phenomena Group as required for travel of members of the volunteer group.
These orders will cite TDY funds which should be made available for sole
support of this program. Assuming primarily military air lift (see
| following paragraph), and maximum support from nearest Air Force facili-
ties as stipulated in AFR 20082, we estimate per annum TDY costs in sup-
port of this program at $5,000.00 (See Tab F for basis of estimate).
These funds should be progranmed and made available directly to the
Aerial Phenomena Group in support of this programe

a a - —_

de To keep costs down, and at the same time to allow pronpt
movement to Air Force bases nearest to scene of critical sightings it
is proposed that a project nicknamed "Horse Fly" (akin to "Blue Fly")
be established. Essentially this project will provide for priority
movement of ATIC UFO investigators to nearest Air Force facilities using
CRT aircraft and pilots. Crew and aircraft will stand by for investiga-
tions taking less than one day. Return flights will pick up investiga-
tors where more than one day is required.

5~- Due to the many ramifications of the program presented herein
' a conference regarding feasibility was held on 16 December 1958 (See
Y Tab G). This meeting confirmed the feasibility of the program as out-
