The UFO enigma will remain a rabbit hole apparently for a long time to come. Are UAP’s the biggest intelligence failure in US history or an example of an incessant counterintelligence operation that has spanned decades? One could see a number of stories about the death bed confessions of former military veterans who had guarded the bodies supposedly recovered from the Roswell Crash in 1947, once an aging and dying Jesse Marcel gave a camera interview of his onsite discovery of the alien disk debris field. After that several other US Air Force and US Army veterans who had been warned never to go public figured that with death knocking at their door it wouldn’t matter now. So on many grocery store newsstands such as the “Enquirer” came the confessionals of those who now defied their oaths of secrecy and admitted to seeing alien bodies and non-human spacecraft.

Until death do we confess

Let’s go back in time to 1940, another death bed confession over a luncheon with Secretary of State Cordell Hull and his cousin, Reverend, Turner Hamilton Holt meeting for a meal at the White House. According to a letter from his daughter, Lucille Andrew, the former Senator and Secretary of State confessed as well, but the Reverend too admitted to have been taken to an underground exhibit hall where 4 glass tubes contained extraterrestrial bodies. Cordell never wanted this information to be released while he was alive but did finally reveal the truth. A secretary who worked at the White House during this period in time claimed that in that era there was a little-known exhibit area beneath the White House.

Preceding Roswell

In 1941 at Cape Girardeau, Mississippi comes the story of another UFO crash and three recovered alien bodies. According to family members Pastor, William G. Huffman was called to what he thought was a plane crash to say last rights over the victims. Instead, when he arrived he witnessed a small disk-shaped craft, two small humanoid bodies that fit the modern day “Gray Alien” description, who were dead, and a third one who was still barely alive. This one expired right in front of the pastor as he prayed for it. He got a glimpse inside the craft seeing small seats, and a golden band with wiring attached to it with hieroglyphs written on it. It was not long before the military showed up, swore everyone there to secrecy and hauled off the wreckage and bodies. Huffman’s daughter reported his death bed confession years later. One reporter calls the incident the blockbuster event before the Roswell crash that was squelched.

As shore batteries nervously await an invasion

Thanks to a report from the LA Times we have an excellent account of what has been known as the “Battle of LA” in 1942 just weeks after the Pearl Harbor attack. Supreme Commander, George C. Marshall, was forced to send a report on the incident to FDR to account for the situation. Marshall claimed that several enemy or unknown aircraft had been fired upon by shore batteries expending more than 1400 hundred anti-aircraft artillery shells. One man was killed by a falling piece of ordnance while a house caught on fire from red hot expended shells, one amazing fact remains. A disk shaped craft was observed to slowly linger above the anti-aircraft batteries taking apparent direct hits that had no effect. Color filtered photos of the unknown aerial machine by Jeff Rense show the artillery shells exploding before ever hitting the surface of the UFO indicating an invisible force field that shielded the unknown object from damage by the intense barrage from the US Army coastal battery.

The scene of another disappearance

In 1933 an infamous corridor of UFO sightings for decades, the Bass Straights, between Australia and New Zealand, was the scene of many reported unknown nocturnal lights in the sky by several residents and fishermen in the area. Later in the same vicinity in 1978 would come the disappearance of Frederick Valentich, a young pilot holding a national air guard license. After reporting to an air traffic controller an unsettling encounter with a UFO that circled his plane and harassed him then experiencing rough idle of his engine, the young single engine pilot would never be seen again.

Prior to WWI

The year is 1903 and in the Naval Maritime Journal is the report of a formation of three airborne nocturnal lights landing alongside a US Naval warship while docked in an east coast harbor. According to Donald Keyhoe, the very first UFOlogist, this incident was officially recorded with no explanation.

An early disclosure?

One year before the Roswell incident and the sudden enactment of the NDAA security state, comes another report from Donald Keyhoe of a US Air Force Lieutenant who released a manuscript about the existence of a possible alien base located somewhere in our solar system in 1946. He speculated that the base would be well enough hidden away from the eyes of astronomers that little chance of locating it at that time existed. The manuscript did make it the US press corps but was not officially recognized by the US Ari Force.

At that point in time until now

All these reports that came in the early half of the 20^th Century indicate that indeed something was going on and that the similarity of eyewitness testimony is consistent. There are other numerous military accounts given that proceed into WWII and the sightings of “Foo Fighters” by both Allied and Axis Powers aviators thinking they had encountered top secret flying machines of the enemy. There is General Nathan F. Twining’s statements around the timeline of the Roswell crash that UFO’s were not a figment of the imagination or a hoax and that they were real unknown aerial machines that out flew and outperformed our best fighters. With all this weight of evidence amassed by the US military itself one can only wonder what has happened from then until now with the present Whistle Blower revelations by David C. Grusch of the UAP task force, we can only wait and see how all this pans out once Congressional hearings are held.
