 "There's an Occam's Razor issue here. Why would we assume an unidentified flying object comes from an extraterrestrial civilization when we've never seen an unambiguous radio signature from them,"

Maybe they use Bluetooth.

Personally, I think it is nice these old guys stepped forward before they were dead, to break their security oaths and speak of what they saw. I don't respect the way the organizers always try to imply it's a Press Club event or a United Nations event, but, they're just trying to draw attention to it, without realizing that a bit more honesty up front would go a long way towards maintaining the intent of these old servicemen.

That said, this is old news. Way back in 1977 it was common knowledge that UFOs had shut down missile silos. The people this info came from may not have been known by name and rank and serial number as they are now, but, the info was out.
