- Inside the Military UFO Underground, by A.J.S. Rayl
-
- NATO Meets E.T.
- Name: Robert O. Dean, retired Army command sergeant major
-
- Claim: Back in the Sixties, NATO issued a classified report stating that UFOs
- were real, of extraterrestrial origin, and had visited the earth. This
- extraordinary report was said to come out of NATO's command center the Supreme
- Headquarters Allied Powers, Europe (SHAPE), located then just outside of Paris,
- France.
-
- Background: Dean, a highly decorated veteran, served on the front lines in both
- Korea and Viet Nam. In 1963, while assigned to the Supreme Headquarters
- Operataions Center (SHOC), SHPAE's war room, headed up by then supremem allied
- commander of Europe, General Lyman Lemnitzer, Dean claims he was able to read
- the detailed 12 inch thick NATO reports on UFOs.
-
- The Story: "SHAPE was one of those choice assignments,. You had to have a
- spotless record and pass security background checks. I applied on a whim and
- got it. I was very proud and please. At SHAPE, I was put through more
- security checks, givern a COSMIC TOP SECRET (yes this is a real term)
- clearance, the highest NATO has, and assined to the SHOC (the NATO war room).
- In those days, the activity would run hot and cold and much of it would depend
- on how the Soviets wanted to play it. The most intriguing thing to me was that
- we were contually having a problem with large, metallic, circular objects that
- would appear over central Europe; these were reported as visual phenomena by
- our pilots and appeared on radar as well. Soime flew in formation, and most of
- the time we spotted them coming out of the Soviet Union, over East Germany,
- West Germany, France, and then they would often circle somewhere over the
- English Channel and head north, disappearing from NATO radar over the Norwegian
- Sea. These objects were very large, moving very fast, at very high
- altitudes--higher than we could reach at the time--and they seemed obviously
- under intellient control.
- I was told this had been going on for some time and that in February 1961
- there had been quite a scare. Fifty of these objects were spotted on radar and
- headed in formation from the Soviet Union toward Europe, flying at about
- 100,000 feet. The Soviets had closed all borders, Everybvody went to red
- alert. All hell broke loose. We really thought the War had started. We
- scrambled. We knew the Russians were scrambling. It was the largest number of
- these objects that had been seen. Fortunately--and only by the grace of
- God--we didn't start bombing and neither did the Russians. In nine minutes
- they were gone.
- I was told that then Deputy Supreme Allied Commander of Europe, Sir Thmas
- Pike, had been repeatedly requesting information from London and Washington
- about these objects, but nothing woold ever come. We found out later that the
- Columbine-Topaz spy ring in Paris was interceting everything and forwarding it
- to the KGB, whicch often got intelliggence information even before we did. So
- Pike decided, I was told, to develop an in house study to determine whether
- these objects were a military threat.
- In the meantime, the UFO matter literally brought about the establishment
- of direct communication between the East and West in 1962, which I have always
- found interesting and ironic. We had pretty well determined by that time that
- these were not Russian craft, and the Russians had determined they were not
- ours. So, we came to an understanding, and a direct telephone line was opened
- between SHOC and the Warsaw Pact Headquarters Command. Of course, a setup was
- always a possibility, so we had backup ways of checking out whether the
- Russians were being truthful. But since we were both armed to the teeth and
- WWIII was just ticking away, it was a logical step in the right direction.
- That idea developed into the hotline between the president of the US and the
- soviet premier, following the Cuban Missle Crisis.
- Well, by the time I arrived in 1963, everybody had been talking about the
- study and I had heard the rumours, seen the blips on radar, witnessed the
- commotions and some of us occasionally even talked about the possibilities.
- But nothing really prepared me for what I started to read in the early morning
- hours one night in January 1964.
- It was about 2:00 a.m. and a relatively quiet night when the SCHOC
- controller on duty went into the vault and came out with this huge document.
- 'Take a look at this,' he said. The title was simply: ASSESSMENT: AN
- EVALUATION OF A POSSIBLE MILITARY THREAT TO ALLIED FORCES IN EUROPE. It was
- numbered, #3, stamped COSMIC TOP SECRET, had eight inches worth of appendices,
- dozens of photographs and had been signed into the vault by German colonel
- Heinz Berger, SHOC's head of security: I quickly learned that it was based on
- two and a half years of research, was funded by NATO money, and that only 15
- copies were published -- in English, German, and French. Each one was
- numbered. All were classified and ordered to be kept under lock and key.
- Every time I got the chance, from then until I left, I would read a
- section or two in it. It was the most intriguing document I'd ever read. It
- was put together by military representatives of every NATO nation and also
- included contributions from some of the greatest scientific minds. These
- objects were violating all of our known laws of physics and the study team had
- gone to Cambridge, Oxfor, the Sorbonne, MIT and other major universities for
- input on chemistry, physics, atmospheric physics, biology, history,
- [psychology, and even theology, all of which were separate appendices.
- I read about theories on Einstein's sought after unified field theory, the
- high radiation at various landing sites and UFO reports that dated back the the
- Roman era and up to our own F105 pilots' sightings and encounters, and on and
- on. I had always been a skeptic, but this report, well...it concluded that
- this stuff was not science fiction.
-
- I read about contact encounnters. One incident that had just happened in
- 1963 involved a landing on a Danish farm. According to the report, the farmer
- went abooard with the two little beings and two more human looking men who
- spoke to him in Danish. The report included parts of his interrogation by
- government authorities and their conclusions that he was telling the truth. In
- another incident, according to the reports, a craft landed on an Italian
- airfield and offered to take an Italian sergeant for a ride. He wet his
- pants--that's what it said--and was so scared, he didn't go.
- The appendix that really got to me was titled 'Autopsies.' I saw
- pictures of a 30 meter disc that had crashed in Timmensdorfer, Germnany, near
- the Balitc Sea in 1961. The British Army, according to the report, got there
- first and put up a perimeter. The craft had landed in very soft, loamy soil
- near the Russian border and so hadn't destructed, but one tthrid of it was
- buried in. We and the Russians whoalso quickly showed up had both tracked it.
- Inside there were 12 small bodies. All dead. There were pictures of the
- bodies, which looked like the beings known as the 'grays,' being laid out and
- then put on stretchers and loaded into jeeps, and autopsy photos, too. Soime
- of the little grays appeared to not be a reproductive capable species. The
- autopsy guys concluded, according to the report, thatit looked as if they had
- been cut out of a cookie cutter -- clones with no alimentary tract. They did
- not ingest or process food as we know it, nor did it appear that they had any
- system forr elimination.
- The craft itself was cut up like a pie into six pieces, put on lowboys and
- hauled off. Scuttlebutt was that it was given to the Americans and flown to
- Wright Patterson Air Force bas in Ohio. I looked at these picture and couldn't
- believe it. My skin got cold and I though, My God. I had never really
- believed we were all alone in the universe, but this was hard to swallow.
- The major conclusions in the NATO report blew me away. There were five:
- 1) The planet and human race had been the subject of a detailed survey of some
- kind by several different extra terrestrial civilizations, four of which they
- had identified visually. One race looked almost indistinguishable from us.
- Another resembled humans in height, stature, and structure, but with a very
- gray, pasty skin tone. The third race is now popularly known as the grays and
- the fourth was described as reptilian, with vertical pupils and lizardlike
- skin.
- 2) These alien visitations had been going on for a very long time, at least 200
- years--perhaps longer.
- 3) The extraterrestirials did not appear hostile since if tat were their intent
- they would have already demonstrated their malevolence.
- 4) UFO appearances and quick disappearances as well as the flybys were
- demonstrations conducted on purpose to show us some of their capabilities.
- 5) a process or program of some sort seemed to be underway since flybys
- progressed to landings and eventually contact.
- I wanted so badly to copy this thing. I did take a photograph of the
- cover sheet, which wasn't in and of itself classified. But I didn't want to
- wind up in Fort Leavenworth. So instead I would go to the bathroom and take
- notes--surreptitiously, very carefully.
- I have bn through an awful lot in my life, but I've never been able to
- just walk away from that report. I know that I'm taking a chance by violating
- my oaths. But this is the most important issue of our ti9mes--so damn
- important that I can't think of anything more important, and the public has
- been deceived and completely kept in tthe dark about all of this for all these
- years. It's the biggest scientific political scandal ever. Besides, what Have
- I got to lose? I'
- m 64 years old now. Are they going to bump me off? I have told the truth and
- my integrity and credibility stand. When is our government going to tell the
- truth?"
