A major ufological misstep?

It’s remarkable that persons as (allegedly) smart as Kevin Randle miss the obvious: that it’s the United States Navy that holds the keys to the UFO mystery, not the U.S. Air Force, not NSA, not the CIA, not the Army, and not any other clandestine subset of the U.S. Government.

Randle even posted, at his blog, a letter about Mogul that gave him another clue that it’s been the Navy all along that has held the UFO phenomenon close to the vest.

Randall’s Mogul letter

We’ve posted other Naval documents at our private UFO web-suite – http://ufos.homestead.com -- that indicate the Navy has investigated and is still investigating UFOs, while experiencing UFO events that no other government agency has experienced.

While the Navy’s fingerprints are all over UFO sightings, and have been since 1945 (see L. Ron Hubbard material at our web-site), for some reason, the Army-Air Force intrusion in the Roswell episode has deflected persons as (allegedly) astute as Mr. Randle, who is obsessed with Roswell, from finding the materials that might confirm for them and other ufologists that UFOs are, often, extraterrestrial craft.

Stanton Friedman has also neglected to pursue the Navy’s connection to UFOs, as has Brad Sparks, among others.

Errol Bruce-Knapp once told our mentor, Rich Reynolds, that he thought Bruce Maccabee was a Naval operative; that is, a person working on behalf of the Navy and not necessarily working as an unbiased ufologist.

We think Bruce-Knapp was and is right.

Others are starting to look more closely at the Navy’s role in UFO incidents and what that military construct is still doing regarding the UFO enigma.

But it’s the UFO old-guard that has to scratch the Navy surface before ufology’s sycophants get on board.

After all, ufology contains a plethora of sheep – persons, like Alfred Lehmberg – who can’t foster an original idea themselves but rely on ufology’s dinosaurs to provide their ideas for them.

And, for now sadly, it’s still those UFO dinosaurs that hold sway when it comes to how media and the public understand UFOs.

Did i miss something here? Bruce Maccabee doubling as a modern day Menzel with the Navy calling the shots... prehaps the GAO should have tasked the Navy for their take on the Roswell affair.

Here is a link to an article that provides a more elaborate and scholarly discussion on this issue.
