-
- Today I would like to present here to
you, exclusively for
- Errol's fine list and so far we never
published it elsewhere,
- somepieces The International Roswell
Initiative has received
- when we all were busy making contacts
to get support in 1994.
-
- Surely you remember the attempt of Senator
Barry Goldwater to
- get access to Hangar 8 at Wright Patterson
Air Force Base in the
- seventies. They denied any access even
for him as a Senator. On
- behalf of the Interntional Roswell Initiative
Kent Jeffrey once
- wrote to Senator Goldwater and received
an interesting response.
- Also we received copies of 4 additional
letters whereof I would
- like to give the transcript of the texts,
because due of copying
- some of the letters are barely readable.
The letters are real
- and no hoaxes.

-
- Dear Mr. Graham:
-
- Thank you for your letter concerning
rumors involving objects of
- an extra terrestrial nature that may
be kept in the "Blue Room"
- at Wright-Patterson A.F.B.
-
- Quite frankly, with respect to this subject,
about which I am not
- personally familiar, I must defer to
the position of Senator
- Goldwater, Chairman of the Senate Intelligences
Commitee, when he
- writes that "this thing has gotten
so highly classified...it is
- just impossible to get anything on it."
-
- Thank you for your interest.

- Sincerely,

-
- Dear Mr. Arnon:
-
- The subject of UFOs is one that has interested
me
- for some long time. About ten or twelve
years ago
- I made an effort to find out what was
in the building
- at Wright Patterson Air Force Base where
the information
- is stored that has been collected by
the Air Force, and
- I was understandably denied this request.
It is
- still classified above Top Secret. I
have, however,
- heard that there is a plan under way
to release some,
- if not all, of this material in the near
future. I'm
- just as anxious to see this material
as you are, and I
- hope we will not have to wait too much
longer.
-
- Sincerely

- [address blackened]
-
- Dear Mr. Graham:
-
- First, let me tell you that I have long
ago given up acquiring
- access to the so-called blue room at
Wright-Patterson, as I have
- had one lonng string of denials from
chief after chief, so I
- have given up.
-
- In answer to your questions, [underlined]one
is essentially
- correct, I don't know of anyone who has
access to the
- [underlined] blue room, nor am I aware
of its contents and I am
- not aware of anything having been relocated.
I can't answer your
- question six, in fact, I can't find anyone
who would answer it.
-
- To tell you the truth, Mr. Graham, [underlined]this
thing has
- gotten so highly classified, even though
I will admit there is a
- lot of it that has been released, [underlined]
it is just
- impossible to get anything on it.
-
- I am returning your papers because I
know they are of value to
- you.
-
- Sincerely,
-

-
- Dear Mr. Steinman:
-
- To answer your questions, I have never
gained access to the
- so-called Blue Room at Wright Patterson,
so I have no idea what
- is in it. I have no idea of who controls
the flow of
- need-to-know because, frankly, I was
told in such an emphatic
- way that it was none of my business that
I've never tried to
- make it to my business since.
-
- I wish you luck on your investigation.
I'm one of those people
- who believe that with some two billion
planets scattered around
- the universe, there has to be a couple
of more that can support
- life on it.

-
- Dear Mr. Jeffrey:
-
- You touch something very close to me,
by your letter. Roswell
- has long been a point of great interest
to me, since the
- first UFO's turned up. You see, I both
believe in UFOs and I
- don't believe in them. My argument is
that God, m creating
- the universes as he did, would not just
have made one planet
- with living things.
-
- Butch Blanchard was a very close friend
of mine. I worked
- with him in the Air Force, and am almost
certain that I knew
- your father, the Colonel. There is not
much we can do about
- getting the things about Roswell that
you would like. I
- tried diligently to get them from General
LeMay, and the only
- cussing out he ever gave me, was when
I very vociferously
- asked him for information.
-
- It was nice to hear from you. I guess
we'l1 just keep on trying.

- At least it was interesting to read the
letters because they
- confirm again the existence of a supersecret
Hangar at Wright
- Patterson AFB and they give a historic
aspect on Senator
- Goldwater and his interest in extraterrestrial
intelligence.
-
- And, of course, they show, how powerless
our elected
- representatives are against the military
complex.
