UFO Reports
As James Goodall of the 133rd Airlift Wing points out, "when you go to work at these locations, you sign away your constitutional rights. You sign a piece of paper saying that if you violate your security agreement and you discuss programmes that you are working on; without trial, without right of appeal, you're going to go to [a] Federal Penitentiary for 20 years. That's a real big incentive to keep your mouth shut (75)." A clue to exactly what people had to keep their mouth shut about was provided by former astronaut Edgar Mitchell when he appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show in 1991 along with a number of other Apollo astronauts. He stated then, "I do believe that there is a lot more known about extra-terrestrial investigation than is available to the public right now [and] has been for a long time." When asked to expand upon this he stated "It's a long, long story. It goes back to World War II when all of that happened, and [it is] highly classified stuff (76)." Highly classified, but intriguing insofar as it uncovers a different slant to our real post-war history."
