Carl Sagan often said that if there were any believable evidence of “alien visitors”, the military would be clamoring for funds to address this potential threat, starting with Roswell.
First of all, the recent UFO report is nothing new and that the report is just a tip of the iceberg of what I have uncovered in the form of declassified UFO documents over the years. I also found that the Air Force had already concluded in its 1948 EOTS report that the objects were, it the Air Force's own words,
"Interplanetary Spaceships." The Air Force reconfirmed that conclusion in its 1952 intelligence report, so it is no surprise to me why the Air Force ordered its pilots to shoot down flying saucers during the 1950's.

In regard to Roswell, General Arthur Exon, former commanding officer of Wright-Patterson AFB, confirmed that the Roswell incident involved extraterrestrials. After all, he was the Air Force officer who overflew both crash sites, which many people today are unaware of and not many people are aware that during the same time frame of the Roswell incident, saucers were also overflying Muroc AFB, CA. now known as Edwards AFB. Pilot flying saucer reports over Muroc AFB and Rogers Dry Lake Bed areas are now available to the public
Yet, all we (and the Soviets) did was to spend bucketloads on preparing to blow each other up.
Maybe the aliens would get caught in the “nuclear winter”....
I might also add that even the Soviets have provided information where a saucer hovered over one of its missile bases where they lost control of their missiles, which isn't surprising to me because my own base was involved in investigations that involved UFOs dismantling our Minuteman missiles in 1967. Hill AFB was the depot for the Minuteman missile and even the Boeing tech rep based at my base had said that one particular incident was being reported as an UFO incident because security personnel reported a saucer hovering over the missile field during the time the missiles shutdown. I personally spoke to one of the missile commanders on the phone and he too, confirmed the incident as reported and he thought the security guard top side was joking when he reported a saucer hovering overhead, that is, until his missiles began to shut down, which occurred a week after another missile flight was affected at Malmstrom AFB. In 1975, UFOs were back at Malmstrom AFB and this time two F-106 interceptors were scrambled but radar contact was lost when one of the objects climbed above 200,000 feet.
I would like to add that the Air Force officer who wrote a report on that 1975 UFO incident at Malmstrom AFB was Lt. Col. Lewis Chase, the RB-47 pilot whose aircraft was chased by a UFO over multiple states in another incident, which was also tracked by a ground-based radar and the aircraft's ELINT system.
To further add, when I see reports such as the Navy pilot report, I know that it is just a tip of the iceberg.
