I run into this somewhat Amazing Story from which a Book titled: “Strange Craft: The True Story of an Air Force Intelligence Officer’s Life with UFOs,” was written.
I know a bit UFO/UAP history, yet i was totally unaware of this Case which i think is important and worth discussing and dissecting because it involved a Military Police Officer, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, an Air Force Major and other curiosities like the fact that the shot dead Alien was giving off a foul-smelling, ammonia-like stench (similar to many other cases) and the description of the being itself which sounded to me like Deja-vu.
Even though supposedly the Major had an Interest in the UFO Topic from an early Age, in my opinion it has nothing to do with the case itself. I can see people here right away jumping to conclusions that the Major was just another thin Foil hat crazy, which is very Typical and very common around here.
But there is always the opposite face of the same coin. Independent of his supposed Interest in UFOs and sightings, he has made it to the Rank of Air Force Major and we could always argue that exactly that interest in UFOs was what drove him to digg in and find the truth surrounding this case. The 70s was a different Era and Military Personnel was complient and would just shut up. Than there is always the possibility that the Author of the Article exaggerated that bit of info.
Major George Filer III, now 84 was — a decorated former intelligence officer for the 21st Air Force, Military Airlift Command at the adjacent McGuire Air Force Base —
And he states this story really is indeed true. because he was there and wrote a top-secret memo about it.
I would like to read your opinions about this case, or maybe some of you read the Book?
