Top-Secret US ArmMy/CIA INVESTIGATIONS OF UFOs ARMY/CIA Top-SECRET UFOs INVESTIGATIONS A former US Army lieutenant working with the CIA in the late 1950s has made extraordinary revelations about early German UFO developments and what the US government and military really knew about UFOs. ugust 27, 2008, Albuquerque, New Mexico — Ten years ago in April 1998, I received a phone call from a California resident who said he was an acquaintance of a man whose father-in-law had worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in the late 1950s and his work included UFO investigations. The caller thought I should talk with the son-in-law to see if I could speak with the 62-year-old father-in-law living in the southeastern United States and whose health was deteriorating. After a lengthy discussion with the son-in-law, "SD", about my investigative journalism career as a TV producer, documentary filmmaker, radio reporter and writer concerning subjects ranging from science and environment to Earth mysteries that include the UFO phenomenon, SD said he would talk with his father-in-law and let me know if I could talk with him—either on or off the record. I assured SD that I was willing to speak with his father-in-law in complete confidence if necessary. SD called back and gave me his father-in-law's home number. On May 2, 1998, I dialled the number of the former CIA and US Army analyst whom I will call "Stein". The first phone conversation had more surprising details than I expected and I asked Stein if I could record by phone, without using his real name, so I could share his alleged experiences with the public on Dreamland and Coast to Coast AM, then hosted by Art Bell. Stein said as long as I didn't reveal his name and current geographical location or the specific military base in which he and others analysed UFO photographs and film that included autopsies of non-human beings, he would talk because he did not know how much longer he would be alive. But he did not want his surviving family to be jeopardised, so he wanted complete anonymity. Unfortunately, requests for anonymity have been too common in my long- time efforts to understand what the US government knows about the agendas and interactions of non-human intelligences with planet Earth. It's my understanding there has been a policy of strict denial in the interest of national security since 1947, after President Harry S. Truman signed a classified executive order to keep the public and media ignorant. In 1998, with his permission, I did share some excerpts of a phone-recorded interview with Stein. But soon after our first discussion, Stein received a tip from a long-time friend of his who worked for the phone company in his home town. The friend told Stein that his phone was tapped and he wondered why, since Stein was retired and very ill. Stein let me know the situation and agreed that I could visit him at his home and record his story. Even that secret effort backfired on Stein in a surprising and disturbing way that ended our discussions, but not before I had recorded many hours of his story. Now it is 10 years later, in August 2008, and I begin the following real "X- Files" series of Stein's assertions that I cannot prove, but in the wake of Jim Part 1 of a 1998 interview with "Stein" by Linda Moulton Howe © 1998-2008 Website: http://www.earthfiles.com "Stein" © 1998-2008 Website: NEXUS ¢ 49 US Army/CIA Unit Studied the Real UFO Blue Book Cases by Linda Moulton Howe http://www.earthfiles.com FEBRUARY — MARCH 2009 www.nexusmagazine.com
