thought you might want to see this.

Well, as glad as I am to know the truth from these folks, I am sorta sad that their were no alien sightings or wrecked ships to be spoken of, it would have been such fun to get into and share.

[Republic]

oops-—grammar difficulties....’there were’ not ‘their were’. Duh.

[RC one]

for later

Well there is S4 which is not mentioned and not far from the Groom Lake Facility. You also need to remember that his work was probably compartmentalized.

[AlexW]

The Kook to Kook AM crowd will be deeply saddened.

Just within this month, they did almost a whole program
with some ex military guy that had been stationed there.
Oh yes, he said, it is very real, and the little green men are deep in the bunkers at area 51, haha.

[Red Steel]

I wonder if this guy was ever featured in the Popular Science magazine?

[Republic]

hmmm...not familiar with your comment substance but believe it holds out a glimmer of hope for alien confirmation, right?

[ErnstStavroBlofeld]

There was no mentioned of work at Papoose Lake.

[Republic]

Don’t know anything about Papoose Lake, either. Dang.

Advance warning to UFOlogists: Sorry, although Noce and other Area 51 vets say they saw plenty of secret stuff, none make claims about aliens.

That's just what they want us to believe... And Obamacare will reduce the deficit.

My Dad admitted to me a little while ago that he had been to Area 51 when he was an Air Force Officer at the Skunk works in the 60’s.

I should have known it. He has a picture of an SR-71 on his wall...

...autographed by Kelly Johnson.

[Beowulf9]

hey, this is just disinformation! Don’t you know, they’re not going to come out and just TELL you about the secret stuff;)

[JohnnyP]

I was there a few times in the early ‘80’s. About all I can say is there were “weird looking things”.

[advertising guy]

my sister knew a guy who dated a girl who married completely different people who knew someone who saw a moose bite a papoose once

[Quix]

I’ll stand by my close relative’s assertions who worked there . . . I forget the timeframe of his duty there, however.

Much appreciate the ping.

Interesting.

Thx.

gee thanks...most informative! Sounds like the real deal, very well documented and trustworthy information.

The government has compartments within compartments. I don't doubt that these guys were never privy to some of the more, um, 'esoteric' stuff going on above their clearance levels, but I also don't doubt that they were telling the truth about what they were involved in during that era. It actually doesn't shed one photon of light on anything other than what has been accepted theory up until now. I'm not saying little green men exist; but regardless, these guys were nothing more than a legitimate 'storefront' for other happenings in their day.
