It is striking that so many have been trained observers, such as police officers and airline or military pilots …

In 1933, the 4th Swedish Flying Corps began an investigation of mysterious unmarked aircraft appearing over Scandinavia, and on April 30th, 1934, Major-General Erik Reuterswaerd issued the following statement to the press:

Comparisons of these reports show that there can be no doubt about illegal air traffic over our secret military areas. There are many reports from reliable people which describe close observation of the enigmatic flier. And in every case, the same remark can be noted; no insignias or identifying marks are visible on the machines … the question is: Who or what are they, and why have they been invading our air territory?

In 1947, Professor Paul Santorini, a leading Greek scientist, was asked to investigate missiles flying over Greece. “We soon established that they were not missiles. But, before we could do any more, the Army, after conferring with foreign officials, ordered the investigation stopped. Foreign scientists flew to Greece for secret talks with me.” [Emphasis added.]

The professor confirmed that a “world blanket of secrecy” surrounded the UFO question because, among other reasons, the authorities were unwilling to admit the existence of a force against which there was “no possibility of defence”.

From 1947 to 1952, ATIC (Air Technical Intelligence Centre) received approximately 1,500 official reports of sightings. Of these the Air Force carries 20 per cent as unexplained.

Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding, Commander-in-Chief of RAF Fighter Command during the Battle of Britain in 1940, wrote:

More than 10,000 sightings have been reported, the majority of which cannot be accounted for by any “scientific explanation”. They have been tracked on radar screens … and the observed speeds have been as great as 9,000 miles an hour … I am convinced that these objects do exist and that they are not manufactured by any nation on earth. I can therefore see no alternative to accepting the theory that they come from an extraterrestrial source …

Recently, in Elmwood, Wisconsin, the entire town watched as flying saucers moved across their skies for several days.

General Lionel Max Chassin, who rose to the rank of Commanding General of the French Air Forces and served as General Air Defence Co-ordinator, Allied Air Forces, Central Europe (NATO), wrote:

That strange things have been seen is now beyond question … The number of thoughtful, intelligent, educated people in full possession of their faculties who have “seen something” and described it grows every day.

Then there was the famous Roswell Incident, in 1947. According to eyewitness reports, on the evening of July 2nd, a bright disc-shaped object was seen over Roswell, New Mexico.
