Flying saucers--serious business Nicap.org - Washington D.C. Jan. 11, 1965; Washington, D.C. At least twelve persons, including six engineers (communication systems specialists) of the Army Signal Corps, observed 12-15 white ovals maneuvering erratically and across the sky, apparently followed by jets from Andrews Air Force Base. Among the witnesses were Messrs. Paul M. Dickey, Jr. and Edward Shad. The Defense Department denied the incident. One of the first news sources on the scene was the WASHINGTON STAR. In addition to the specialists just men-tioned, the STAR interviewed Sam Webb, Jack McBride, and Sam Marrone. Said the STAR (January 13): "They agree on the shape and approximate number of the discs and the fact that the things were speeding faster than the jet interceptors." When the STAR inquired of the Defense Department what the objects might have been, the paper was curtly informed that the twelve Army communications specialists had seen NOTHING AT ALL! "There was no such incident. It just did not happen." Even more intriguing was the experience of a television station which made arrangements to interview the Army group which had seen the strange objects. The interview was to be made on sound film and aired that night. Word of this development got to the Pentagon and a "spokesman" was rushed to the Army center on the double quick He found the television crew setting up their gear. The communications specialists who were about to be interviewed were taken into another room and in-formed that they could not discuss the incident for public consumption. When some of the civilian specialists demanded to know in what manner the Pentagon could force THEM to maintain silence, the flustered officer told them that since they had observed the objects through a government window they came under the government regulations on the subject! There were no television interviews with those witnesses. https://preview.redd.it/wzgvaikiobzg1.png?width=718&format=png&auto=webp&s=4c0bb3696469bc0bb396a5ecc57c61e1636843f8 submitted by /u/Shiny-Tie-126 [link] [comments]
