The U.S. Navy has drafted a procedure to investigate and catalogue reports of unidentified flying objects coming in from its pilots. But the service doesnt expect to make the information public, citing privileged and classified reporting that is typically included in such files.
Joe Gradisher, a spokesman for the office of the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Information Warfare, said in a statement that the Navy expects to keep the information it gathers private for a number of reasons.
Military aviation safety organizations always retain reporting of hazards to aviation as privileged information in order to preserve the free and honest prioritization and discussion of safety among aircrew, Gradisher said. Furthermore, any report generated as a result of these investigations will, by necessity, include classified information on military operations.

Even though the Navy indicated it has no plans in the imminent future to release the data, unclassified portions of the information or broad overviews of the findings could come out, according to Luis Elizondo, an intelligence officer who ran AATIP before leaving the Pentagon.
If it remains strictly within classified channels, then the right person may not actually get the information. The right person doesnt necessarily mean a military leader. It can be a lawmaker. It can be a whole host of different individuals, Elizondo said.
For example, in the future, the Navy theoretically could release broad statistics about the number of sightings and the results of the follow-up investigations without disclosing any classified information. Even if the information isnt made available to the public, it could be reported to Congress.

That said, I’m not sure how much of this new program is black.
Sorry for the misunderstanding. I meant is what you call the “phenomenon” is Black. USN, USA, USAF, Congress, POTUS no need to know,
Completely agree!
Back when the government was still a bit open on these things, I remember Maj. Gen. John A. Samford's Statement on "Flying Saucers", Pentagon, Washington, DC, 07/31/1952 saying "credible observers of relatively incredible things" at 1:50).
Here's some other statements Don't be put off by the site's name.
UFOs are supernatural and can even be summoned (search Dr. Steven Greer), though they can apparently seem very physical. An auntie of mine reports she saw, a number of years ago, a full on 1950s style flying saucer close up and personal. Uncle saw it too, but refused to speak of it when asked (he had sworn auntie to secrecy and had apparently been scared witless by the event).
But I’m not convinced cell cameras are all that great. I can’t take a picture of even the moon. Just looks like a blur.
Best comment on the subject I have seen. Ever.
Concise, incisive, frightening in its implications.
BTW, are your aunt and uncle still living?
Yup, both are doing great
