By Robert Hastingswww.ufohastings.com8-9-10 I have been invited to appear on the Coast to Coast AM radio program on Sunday, August 15, 2010, for a two-hour interview with KLAS-TV reporter and host George Knapp. I will be discussing my 37-year investigation of UFO activity at nuclear weapons sites, as well as the September 27, 2010 press conference in Washington D.C. that I will be co-hosting with former nuclear missile launch officer, USAF Captain Robert Salas. At that event, six former or retired USAF officers, and one former enlisted man, will reveal their dramatic UFO experiences at various nuclear weapons sites.In March 1967, Salas was present at Oscar Flight (10 Minuteman ICBMs controlled by a Launch Control Capsule) at Malmstrom AFB, Montana, when a UFO apparently shut down most or all of his missiles. This extraordinary event occurred just moments after one of Salas' security guards reported seeing an orange-red, oval-shaped object hovering over the launch site's front gate. The other launch officer in the capsule that day, now-retired Col. Fredrick Meiwald, has confirmed that a security police team was sent out to the field in a Jeep shortly thereafter, to investigate another report of a UFO hovering near one of Oscar Flight's missile silos. According to Col. Meiwald, upon seeing the unknown aerial object, the missile guards were scared out of their wits and fled the scene, wasting no time in returning to the Launch Control Facility.But this dramatic incident-which has been confirmed by a third former USAF officer, Captain Bob Jamison-is just the tip of the iceberg. Appearing with me on Coast to Coast AM will be yet another retired USAF missile launch officer, Captain Bruce Fenstermacher, who had a very similar experience in 1976, at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, Wyoming, which he summarizes this way: I spent 20 years in the Air Force. The first nine years I served as an enlisted man and the last 11 as an officer. Initially I was very skeptical about all the "UFO nonsense". In the fall of 1976 I was a Minuteman III Combat Crew Commander on alert with my deputy "Sam". We monitored radio communications between the Flight Security Controller, "Sgt. Jones", and the cops-actually a Security Alert Team or SAT. They were on patrol near one of our 10 missile sites which was south about 9 or 10 miles from the Launch Control Facility or LCF. Sometime around 2 A.M. we heard Sgt. Jones ask the two cops to stop the vehicle, look around and report anything that the saw that looked unusual. He gave no hints about where to look or what to look for. The response at first was that they didn't see anything. Then a few seconds later, they reported in an excited voice that they saw a pulsating white thing in the sky. They could see flashing red and blue lights between the pulsations. Jones asked where they saw it. The cops responded that it was to the north about 10 miles and that it looked very close to the main capsule. Now fully awake, Sam and I looked at each other and wondered what was going on. I called Jones on the hot line between us and asked him about the conversation he just had with the SAT. He said that right now above the Launch Control Facility (100 feet or so) was a white pulsating light with red and blue lights visible between the pulsations. He also said it was shaped like a "fat cigar" and appeared to be about 50 to 60 feet long. He was looking at it while we talked on the phone. Jones reported that it moved away. Sgt. Jones called back in a few minutes and said that it appeared to stop a few miles away-very close to one of the Launch Facilities (LF) or missile sites. We ordered the cops to that missile site but they had to return to the capsule for batteries for their flashlights and other equipment. When they finally headed towards the silo, the pulsating light moved away before they got there. Over the next couple of hours the pulsating light made stops very close to several more missile sites. Each time we tried to send the cops to the site in question. Each time the cops said they had car problems and/or other equipment problems and never actually made it to any of the sites. According to Jones, some time around 4:30 AM it "whooshed away" and turned into a white dot within a few seconds. The white dot stayed in the sky for a few more seconds and then totally disappeared. While this was going on, during one of our communication checks with all the other launch control capsule commanders in our squadron we mentioned the object and received some chuckles and ridicule. Within a minute or so one of the other commanders called our capsule [and] said that he was told by his topside crew that they had the same sort of lights over their missile sites earlier that night but didn't want to say anything about it in the communications check for fear of ridicule. He said that he had not and would not report the incident to headquarters-again for fear of ridicule. Sam and I reported it to SAC and Warren [Command Post] right after that call and were laughed at and told to call back if it "ate the cops" we had sent to check it out, which of course did not happen as they never got close to the sites. Even though we were laughed at each time we called, we made sure that it was officially reported with about 3 or 4 more calls to the [Command Post]. On the final call we insisted that they include it in their log or we would wake the base commander. I wish we had. The next morning after our alert we were relieved by a new crew and went topside. Sgt. Jones was there curled up in a chair. He was wide awake and still quite upset and scared about his experience. We spent some time talking to him and trying to calm him down. Under promise that we wouldn't report the SAT actions, Sgt. Jones also told us that the cops were scared to death last night and had decided they were not going to drive to any of the sites that had "that thing" over it under any circumstances. That explained all their vehicle and equipment problems. To this day I am convinced that Sgt. Jones believed that he saw something very unusual that night and was sincere in his description of the activity. I did not see Sgt. Jones again on any other alert duty. At the next several crew departure meetings all outgoing crews were briefed that this event never officially happened and not to talk to anyone about it. I did not recognize the individual who briefed us at that departure meeting. As a serviceman who followed orders for 20 years I have had reservations about mentioning this incident. However, in the past several years I have read about or seen on the Larry King TV show cases where similar incidents have been reported by former military members. A former Missile commander, Robert Salas, especially comes to mind. Since skeptics appear to have challenged their integrity as well as their memory I think it is time for all of us that have been silent to talk about what we observed.So, folks, check out Coast to Coast AM on Sunday, August 15th, to learn more about these bizarre but true UFO encounters. You will be amazed at what has been kept hidden from you by the U.S. government. The question is whether or not this official censorship should be allowed to continue, decade after decade. Not surprisingly, my own position on the issue is very clear: American citizens and the rest of the world deserve to know the facts.More...See Also:UFOs " /> Grab this Headline Animator
