     "An anonymous letter writer told of witnessing phenomena
which he believed to be related to the alleged secret Navy
experiment.  During the Second World War, his landlady's son went
into the Navy, and it was believed that he had died while in
service.  Some years later, however, our correspondent met a
young man of the son's description in the hallway of the rooming
house.  The young man said 'hello,' then 'vanished like a ghost.'
     "The boarder often saw the young man appear, then vanish. 
On one occasion the strange man appeared , began to weep, and
begged the landlady for some bread.  The matter became even more
confused in the boarder's mind when the young sailor's widow, who
continued to reside with her mother-in-law for many years after
her husband's presumed death, moved out after obtaining a
DIVORCE.
     "Had the landlady's son been one of those unfortunate seamen
aboard the experimental naval vessel?
     "Such things are 'incredible,' pronounce the representatives
of various earthly establishments, 'contrary to the laws of
science.'  And so they may be, but we may soon learn that there
are many undreamt-of facts that are 'contrary to the laws' of our
science.
     "The mystery of the true reality of the Philadelphia
Experiment has taunted UFO researchers for over thirty years. 
Now Al Bielek claims to have the key to unlock the rusted door of
secrecy.
     "...Just when those of us who research such incredible
reports and attempt to define them as mysteries or myths had
decided that it was time to put the Philadelphia Experiment to
rest, in September of 1989, Alfred Bielek stepped before the
audience gathered in Phoenix for the UFO-NEW AGE CONFERENCE and
startled everyone by announcing that he had been a part of the
astonishing experiment and that he had survived time-warping,
invisibility, and electromagnetic zapping to emerge from a period
of brainwashing to tell his story.
     "Alfred Bielek: Actually, the Philadelphia Experiment, at
least in its preliminary stages, probably began about 1932-'33 in
the Chicago area.  The popular scientific press of the day was
very hot on the subject of invisibility.
     "It was at that time that a small team of scientists got
together and started to investigate the subject and its
possibilities.  The team included John Hutchinson, Dean of the
University of Chicago; the brilliant Nicola Tesla; and a third
man who has been very hard to identify.  I finally tracked him
down as Dr. Emil Kurtenauer, an Austrian, who had a Ph.D. in
physics.
     "THEN ARE YOU SAYING THAT THE PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT BEGAN
AS A CIVILIAN PROJECT?
     "Bielek: Although it was a private research operation, it
was apparently funded by the Navy from the very beginning.  It
was soon moved to the east coast and wound up at the Institute
for Advanced Studies at Princeton University, which had been
formed in 1933.  Einstein and a number of very interesting people
became associated with the Institute, but one of the first, and
perhaps one of the youngest members that they had join them in
1933, was Dr. John Eric Von Neumann.
     "WAS TESLA ALSO A PART OF THE WORK AT THE INSTITUTE?
     "Bielek: He rejoined them in perhaps the late '30s.  Because
of his close connection with Franklin D. Roosevelt, who became
President in 1933, Tesla had been called to Washington to do work
for the government.  He was assigned to several projects, the
principal one of which later resulted in the Philadelphia
Experiment.
     "One of Tesla's projects was the so-called 'Death Ray.' 
Most people don't know this, but the machine was actually built
by the U.S. Army in 1938-'39 and was tested in New Mexico.
     "I heard from a friend, someone who was connected with the
government, and from an acquaintance who had worked with Tesla,
that the ray truly worked.  It was so devastating and its effects
so terrible that the government decided that it was too dangerous
for anyone to control.  They destroyed the working model; they
destroyed the records; they destroyed the plans.  The officers in
charge said that they would rather see the thing destroyed than
to be put into possible use by an enemy.
     "Tesla then proposed a similar system to the British, and he
was also turned down by them.  Somewhat disgruntled, he turned
his talents to a radio-controlled automobile that extracted its
power from the air around it.  He converted a Pierce-Arrow and
drove it around Manhattan to the delight of the press and the
people.  Tesla's nephew also drove the car in upstate New York.
     "WHEN DID TESLA GET BACK TO WORK ON THE PHILADELPHIA
EXPERIMENT?
     "Bielek: I believe that he was its first director when it
got to the point where the project required complete
organization.
     "Perhaps the single greatest contributor to the project,
however, was Dr. John Von Neumann.  Born in Budapest, Hungary, he
demonstrated a genius in mathematics at an early age.  He had
been at the University of Berlin and the University of Hamburg
when he immigrated to the United States in 1930.  He went
immediately to Princeton where he became a Visiting Professor of
Mathematics.  In 1933, he was invited to join the Institute.
     "AND WHAT ABOUT EINSTEIN'S PARTICIPATION IN THE PROJECT?
     "Bielek: Einstein did not take part in any physical way in
the project, which, by the way, was called 'Project Rainbow.'
     "Einstein was strictly a theoretical physicist.  He was not
at all a nuts and bolts man.  The experiment, in part, was being
run as an application of his Unified Field Theory, but Einstein,
though aware of Project Rainbow, was involved in many other
projects at the Institute.
     "There was another participant who is rather well-known to
UFOlogists because of his work with electrostatically controlled
UFOs.  I refer to T. Townsend Brown, who was excellent at the
nuts and bolts application of physics.
     "AL, PLEASE TELL US ABOUT YOUR OWN INVOLVEMENT IN THE
PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT.
     "Bielek: I began investigating the mystery back in the
1960's, strictly as a research project.  I had no idea then that
I would discover that I had such a personal involvement in the
whole incredible business.
     "AND NOW YOU HAVE SOMEHOW REMEMBERED THAT YOU HAVE BEEN
LEADING A DOUBLE LIFE.  YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED ONE LIFE AS ALFRED
BIELEK AND ANOTHER AS EDWARD A. CAMERON.
     "Bielek: That is correct.  And I have learned that I have a
half-brother, Duncan.  We were the sons of Alexander Duncan
Cameron, a wealthy ex-Navy man who had five wives in succession
and numerous mistresses.
     "My brother got his Ph.D. in physics from the University of
Edinburgh, Scotland.  I received my Ph.D. in physics at Harvard.
     "AS EDWARD A. CAMERON, NOT AS ALFRED BIELEK.
     "Bielek: Yes.  I haven't been able to document all of this
yet, but I have memory flashes of the classes and the professors.
     "Duncan and I had followed the advice of our father and had
entered a naval officers' training program.  In September of
1939, we were assigned to Provincetown, Rhode Island, Officers
Training School.  After a brief tour of duty, we were assigned to
the Institute at Princeton.
     "Tesla was in charge of Project Rainbow at the time, and Von
Neumann, a superior mathematician, seemed to be next in command.
     "In September of 1940, we applied coils and generators to a
mine sweeper and accomplished a successful transition into
invisibility.
     "WAIT A MINUTE!  ARE YOU SAYING THAT THERE WAS A SUCCESSFUL
EXPERIMENT IN INVISIBILITY IN 1940 BEFORE THE ILL-FATED BOGGLE IN
1943?
     "Bielek: Yes, but we used no personnel on board the mine
sweeper.  We used only the ship.
     "The experiment was heavily classified, of course.  Almost
immediately the maritime service became interested.
     "Remember, the United States was not yet at war, but the
handwriting was on the wall.  Everyone knew that it probably
wouldn't be too long before the Nazi submarines were sniping at
out ships.
     "What Project Rainbow sought to do was to accomplish radar
and visual invisibility.  And at this time, the Navy seemed to
have unlimited resources.  Roosevelt was an old Navy man, and he
lavished big budgets on his favorite branch of the service.
     "After the successful demonstration with the mine sweeper,
my brother and I were sent on a tour of duty aboard the
Pennsylvania.  We were in San Francisco when the Japanese
attacked Pearl Harbor, and early in 1942, we were summoned back
to the Institute.  It was now imperative that Project Rainbow
produce more successful results as soon as possible.
     "Tesla had designed special coils for the generators and
transformers.  Everything was built to endure powerful jolts of
electricity.
     "WEREN'T YOU CONCERNED TO BE WORKING AROUND SO MUCH HIGH
VOLTAGE APPARATUS?
     "Bielek: Tesla was.  He became very concerned when he
learned that the experiment would now include a live crew.  He
protested that the scientists had no true idea of what would
happen to the personnel on board the ship.
     "Everyone always talks about the genius of Tesla.  Without
taking any of his genius away from him, it must be admitted that
he was a very unusual person.  I am convinced that he had a
definite extraterrestrial connection.  An acquaintance who used
to work with Tesla has said that he talked to 'someone' off-
planet everyday.
     "HOW FAR DID TESLA CARRY HIS PROTEST THAT THE EXPERIMENT
WOULD BE TOO DANGEROUS FOR THE PERSONNEL?
     "Bielek: He insisted that the Navy give Project Rainbow more
time before the experiments would be conducted.  They told him to
forget it.  There was a war going on.  He was told to make the
experiment work.  
     "On a cold day in March, 1942, all the levers were pulled to
place the test ship - a battleship - into invisibility - and
nothing happened.
     "I remain convinced that Tesla deliberately sabotaged the
experiment.  The apparent failure of the experiment permitted him
to say, 'Well, it is obvious the experiment was unsuccessful. 
Now, I have to get back to work on other projects.  Good-bye.'
     "There was no way that he would risk that many human lives.
     "He left the project, and ten months later, on January 7,
1943, he was found dead in his hotel room in New York.
     "WEREN'T YOU CONCERNED WHEN TESLA LEFT THE PROJECT?
     "Bielek: Absolutely.  My brother and I also had picked up on
a personal problem - for others and ourselves.  Understand that
we would be in the hold of the test ship.  We would not be
watching the experiment from the safety of the dock.
     "Van Neumann was now in charge, and he switched to a pulse
modulation of energy.  He lopped off a forward turret from the
Eldridge so that he could place two large generators in the hold.
Four transmitters were on deck.  T. Townsend Brown placed a
special transmitter in the hold and an antenna on the 'tower'. 
Yet another massive generator to power the system was brought on
board.
     "Early in June, a seaman who was helping us in the hold was
struck down by a huge arc of energy.
     "In late June, they decided the Eldridge should be tested
for seaworthiness, and the vessel left with a temporary captain.
     "On July 20th, we were all ready and assembled for the
experiment.
     "At 0900 hours, on July 22nd, someone flipped the main
switch, and for twenty minutes the Eldridge was invisible to
radar and to visual contact.
     "We returned twenty minutes later with most of the crew
demented.  My brother and I must have been spared because we were
in the hold, and most of the equipment was on deck.
     "In spite of the heavy loss of personnel to hysteria and
near insanity, we were given twenty-one days to try it again.
     "This time, they told us, we would try only for radar
invisibility, not optical invisibility.  After all, the important
thing was to confuse enemy radar.  It was not really necessary to
be invisible.  Besides, what if invisible ships started ramming
each other with their radar ineffective?
     "On August 12, with a new crew, the experiment began afresh.
For sixty to seventy seconds, the Eldridge was invisible to
radar.
     "Then there was a blue flash - and the ship disappeared. 
There was not even a waterline to mark its visible presence.  It
was gone.
     "For four hours it was gone.
     "YOU CLAIM THAT YOU AND YOUR NEWLY DISCOVERED HALF-BROTHER
WERE ON BOARD.  WHERE DID YOU GO FOR FOUR HOURS?
     "Bielek: We saw crewmen all around us going crazy, so we
jumped off the ship.  But instead of landing in the water of the
Philadelphia harbor, we landed on the grass at the Montauk Army
Base on Long Island, New York.  Dr. Von Neumann was waiting for
us.  It is said that he died in 1957.  No way!  He was there in
Montauk in '83. (Note: If Bielek is telling the truth, then Von
Neumann most likely became aware of the missing men after the
initial experiment, calculated that they had been caught in a
parallel though extremely swift 'time current', and to put it
simply 'pulled them from the river' by establishing some type of
electromagnetic 'window' through which he was able to pull them
out from the 'side-stream' back into the 'main-current' of our
time-space existence - Branton)
     "We had somehow been sucked into hyperspace and been pulled
into the future.
     "And guess what had been pulled along with us?  Between
August 4 and August 12, we had sighted UFOs hovering over the
Eldridge.  Well, a (remote controlled? - Branton) UFO was sucked
along with us to Montauk - and it was dismantled there!
     "WHAT OF THE OTHER PERSONNEL?
     "Bielek: Once again, it seems that Duncan and I survived
because we had been in the hold.  But the terrible irony is that
not even one single member of the crew would have had to suffer
if the experiment had been one day earlier or later.
     "WHAT DID THE DATE HAVE TO DO WITH IT?
     "Bielek: Although no one knew it then, the most important
piece of equipment on the Eldridge was Tesla's Zero Time
Generator.
     "This incredible device was created to lock into the basic
Zero Time of our galaxy.  It provides a physical-cosmological
lockup that must be in place before one can attempt all of these
exotic experiments in teleportation and invisibility.
     "The UFOs had been trying to warn us that we must not
attempt our experiment on August 12.  It appears that the Earth
has its own biorhythm, just as we humans and all living things
do.  There is a twenty year peak that occurred that year on
August 12, 1943.  We were pulled into hyperspace and emerged
forty years later on 1982. (Apparently two 20-year 'cycles'
later.  Note that this was FORWARD 'travel' rather than backwards
as the time 'stream' cannot flow back on itself - Branton)
     "As Von Neumann explained, what he needed in 1943 to ensure
the experiment's success was a computer.  Each individual had his
own Time Lock Reference.  When this reference is disrupted by
extreme power, people can literally be torn away from their
moments in Time and drift away into another point of reference.
     "Although Von Neumann believed that he had correctly
calculated the Zero Time Reference, only a computer could have
done so for each crewman.  Therefore, some of the men did not
come back to the precise moment in the Past/Present of 1943 in
which they had left.  And they only needed to be off (i.e. out of
frequency or phase - Branton) by a mini-second to find themselves
embedded in a steel bulkhead.
     "Von Neumann did collaborate on Maniac One, an early model
of a very successful computer, which in spite of its massive bulk
and size, was very effective.  Unfortunately, it was much too
late to help the crewmen of the Eldridge.
     "When the warship returned to visibility in the Navy yard,
four men were embedded into various parts of the Eldridge.  Some
had burst into flame.  Others were glowing.  Most of the rest
were insane.  Only those shielded by steel walls or decking
survived.
     "WHY WASN'T THERE A GREAT PUBLIC OUTCRY OVER SUCH A TERRIBLE
MILITARY DISASTER?
     "Bielek: Remember, this experiment was as classified as the
research on the atomic bomb.  The whole incident was swept under
the Navy's rug.  Cover stories were created.  Men were placed in
asylums.
     "You must also place this incident in time perspective with
the enormous war effort that was taking place.  London was being
bombed.  We were taking our lumps in the Pacific.  The wounded
were coming back from everywhere.
     "AS AN ASIDE, WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WARSHIP THAT WAS USED IN
THE EXPERIMENT?
     "Bielek: Strangely enough, they tried another experiment
with her somewhere around October 27th - this time without
personnel.  Once again, the Eldridge disappeared.  WHEN SHE
RETURNED, IT WAS DAMAGED AND HALF OF ITS EQUIPMENT WAS MISSING. 
I didn't say the EQUIPMENT was 'damaged.'  I said, 'missing!'
     "After this incident the Powers That Be pronounced that they
had had enough of such experiments.  The Eldridge was on active
duty until 1946.  After she was removed from duty, she was
'mothballed' for a time.  Then, later, in 1951, she was
transferred to the Greek Navy.
     "WE'RE A BIT UNCLEAR AS TO HOW YOU AND YOUR BROTHER CAME TO
BE GIVEN TWO IDENTITIES.
     "Bielek: Let me explain this way: In 1947 or '48, Dr. Von
Neumann, armed with a rudimentary, but effective, airborne system
caused a F-80 jet fighter to disappear from radar.  Both pilot
and plane seemed just fine, but the scientist decided to ground
the pilot and keep him under wraps for a year, just to make sure.
     "A year later, the pilot was taking an observer along on a
repeat test flight when the pilot simply disappeared from the
cockpit.  Unfortunately, the observer was not an aviator, so the
jet crashed.  Only the body of the observer has ever been found. 
The pilot had totally disappeared.
     "Perhaps our Zero Time Reference pulled us back again to
1983.  MY BROTHER DIED IN THREE DAYS OF OLD AGE.  HE HAD AGED
ABOUT A YEAR AN HOUR.  I guess a similar thing must have happened
to me.
     "You may not believe this, but secret government agencies
have the ability to arrange new bodies FOR SOULS whose previous
physical bodies have died.  My brother's soul was introduced to a
body that was born in 1951.
     "EVEN IF SUCH MIND-BOGGLING TECHNOLOGY MIGHT EXIST, WHY
WOULD ANY GOVERNMENT AGENCY WISH TO DO SUCH A THING?
     "Bielek: For reasons that I cannot explain at this time,
they cannot allow my brother or myself to die.  It was arranged
that I should have the body and background of Alfred Bielek, born
in 1927.
     "The C.I.A. and N.S.A. have all kinds of incredible
technology than can work with the individual's genetic blueprint
and external matrix that flows around it.  They can do physical
age regression - and progression.
     (Note: According to certain sources, some of the para-
scientific research taking place in the Dulce and other
underground labs include research into the possibility of
removing a soul-matrix from a human body [i.e. killing them] and
inserting another soul matrix into that same body.  In order for
this experiment to work, it appears that someone must die in the
process.  No wonder the Dulce labs and other similar bio-genetic
laboratories must keep their activities absolutely secret, as the
Federal medical regulation agencies would literally eat them
alive, and convict them on countless infringements of the
Constituted laws of the United States.  Some even claim that the
'organization' operating in such laboratories have little in
common with the elected Constitutional Government of the U.S.  As
for the Dulce Facility, there is also an allegation that a human
soul-matrix can be removed from a human body and replaced by an
'alien' energy matrix--possibly even malevolent 'alien' forms? 
In essence, the person 'dies' and his/her body is taken over by a
supernatural non-human intelligence in what might be considered a
more complex version of the old 'zombie' traditions - Branton)
     "WHEN DID YOU BEGIN TO 'REMEMBER' THIS WHOLE INCREDIBLE
STORY?
     "Bielek: They had brainwashed me good, obviously intending
to bury me forever.  As I mentioned, I first began researching
the Philadelphia Experiment in the 1960s, and I knew there was
something about that film as I saw it that really jogged my
memories.
     "One day I walked into the home of the man I know now as my
half-brother, and I said to him and some other friends gathered
there, 'I was part of the Philadelphia Experiment.  And so were
you!'
     "'We know it,' they said, 'We have just been waiting for YOU
to remember.'  
     "AND WHAT IS NEXT FOR YOU, NOW THAT SO MANY MEMORIES APPEAR
TO BE RETURNING TO YOU?
     "Bielek: More research.  More investigation.  I want to be
able to document all of this in a way that will satisfy the most
skeptical.
     "I am beginning to find other crew members or personnel who
were associated with the experiment.  They remember me and recall
my involvement.
     "I am gaining more proof for my story all the time..." '
