There are definitely UGO’S my 97 years old dad had friends that flew for the military and then for major airlines on long flights and they said there are things they saw that they had no words for! Never said anything except to friends late in life! Heck they would have sounded nuts back then.! They were afraid to lose thier jobs as pilots for the airlines

It’s been 77 years already. Time for the government to declassify the information.

I don’t know what this man saw or was told, but as people get older it becomes harder to keep secrets buried. It’s just too hard physically to suppress them.

Love when he asked the Wade’s about having debris and not going forward to the government. Wife’s response was pretty much something like, the government keeps telling us they don’t exist so why would we do that? 😂

I lived in N M in the early 1960's. I saw things between Roswell and Clines Corner( area N and slightlu E of Roswell) that were unexplainable. Lights in the sky that made 90 degree turns at SPEED faster than anything at thAT TIME. LIghts that followed us then just disappeared. Thunder and lightning AT NIGHT UNDER A CLEAR SKY that came and went suddenly....rain out of a clear sky( cloudburst type rain that makes for flash floods). This happened many times over the 4 years we drove that road , twice a month. high weirdness!
