of Police whom I met in a restaurant, seemingly by accident. Several times | felt bad because people broke down and cried or were really torn up by the experience. This added credibility to their answers but hurt me nevertheless, and I never could really transmit in my reports the kind of credibility their response gave their answers. I am older and retired now, and maybe by writing this letter | wil add some piece to the great mosaic I cannot see in totality or understand. I write to you anonymously because | know al about recrimination. | am infirm and really don't care overly much, but I am comfortable and would be hard pushed if I were to lose part o my retirement [benefit] (a common tactic of the intelligence community). I also note that UFOs just don’ get talked about much any more, and that most related magazines have all but disappeared from bookstores. Or maybe there just are no UFOs that are not our own black projects or mistaken physical phenomena. I was pretty shaken by what | learned, however, and today, because of that work, I remain very open to the real possibility tha these things are indeed real. Maybe there will also be other guys tha come forward who served in similar roles. I can't believe that all the rumours were generated from people talking about me alone. was pretty damned good at making friends and securing confidences, but one never knows. Besides, think the MIB term was coined wel before 1983. Oh, I dutifully never made copies of any of my reports and never kep a record of whom | interviewed, and the ones I recall the names of | wil not tell you. I must have done enough right for Captain Kirk to recommend me. never saw him again or got back to Los Alamos. I must admit, however, in looking back, that I never again wore such magnificent clothing or drove such wondrous automobiles. When it came down to it, I just could not generate the courage to spend that much of my own money on such things. Sincerely, (Anon.) oo Reflections on UFO experiences I mention all the information in he proceeding paragraphs because it led me eventually to conclude hat I might actually be serving as one of the strange Men in Black that had read about. | truthfully never ad the nerve actually to ask the question of anyone at Los Alamos, and even later, as | moved into igher intelligence work but unrelated to anything to do with UFOs, I never broached the subject again. In truth, I was a bit scared away rom that by Kirk himself. I did ask im once, because of the seeming veracity of the answers I was getting o the UFO event questions, whether the damned things were real. He looked at me very seriously or a moment and then said: "Leave hat shit alone. UFOs are about the most dangerous subject you can ever discuss once you have done his kind of work." I felt the seriousness of his delivery right to my core, and I took it to heart. I loved doing some of the work, but in reality I loved having that kind of power. It was ephemeral, but when I suited up, drove to Los Alamos, memorised the data and headed out to the southwestern desert, I felt like | was a kid working for Captain Midnight. I never got to use any power back then, but sure felt like | had it. We took a yachting holida: last year, aioe into Whe Berle.

The wors question was "How did you know?", and I came to dread that one. As time went by, | knew that i would be followed with a statement, "But I told no one, not even my spouse, or parents, or whatever".
