They keep it in the "Classics File" at the Coast Guard's 9th District Head- quarters downtown: a single-page incident report issued by the Fairport Har- bor station on the night of March 4, 1988. The subject: Unidentified Flying Objects. "None of those guys are around anymore and I wasn't there," says Chief Quar- termaster Leo Deon of the Search and Rescue Data Section. "They saw something, but who knows what." Sgt. Greg Reid was the executive officer at the Fairport station before he re- tired and joined the Lake County Sheriff's Department. "I believe my guys," he says. "They were definitly sure of what they saw." Sheila Baker sits in her kitchen, sunlight streaming through the windows, a black, prune-faced Shar-Pei snoring on the floor. "I'm a typical Jewish mother with three kids," she says. "I go to temple. I believe in God." She fingers her ponytail. Then leans forward. "I know," she says. "I saw it." Friday, March 4, 1988, started cold and got colder. There were light snow flurries throughout the day, but by the time the sun set at 6:21 the clouds had broken up and the night sky was clear and star-studded. Sheila Baker and her husband, Henry, drove north along Ohio 91 into Eastlake and then turned east on Lake Shore Boulevard. They had taken the kids to Chuck E. Cheese for dinner and were almost home. As they neared the lake, they saw the blink of red warning lights on the two smokestacks that towered over the CEI plant. Sheila liked the lights, the way they rose 500, 600 feet straight up those ce- ment chimneys like the fins on a rocket ship. But tonight they looked differ- ent. The kids noticed it, too. At first Sheila thought some of the lights had burned out. But as they drove closer she could make out a shape. Some- thing in the air. Out over the lake. Motionless. "There's something out there," she said to Henry. "See, over by the stacks." Henry couldn't see anything. "You're pregnant," he said. "You're probably hallucinating." Sheila was thinking it could be the Goodyear blimp. It kind of looked like a football. but what would the Goodyear blimp be doing out on a night like this? "Go down to the beach," she told Henry. "I wanna take a look." Instead of arguing, Henry passed their house on Hiawatha and drove down the hill to the beach. He parked at the base of a wide ridge that climbed some 30 feet in front of them, dirt and chunks of concrete that acted as a break- wall. A well-torn path led around it to a small, sandy beach that curled into a cor- ner at the feet of the two smokestacks. Sheila got out of the car. The moon was bright and full, and the ice on the lake looked eerie. Sheila could hear it cracking. Loud. Like claps of thunder. In between the claps, nothing. A dead calm. Not even a dog barking. Everybody around here had a dog and one of them was always barking. "That's weird," Sheila thought, reaching the beach, the night sky bursting above her, limitless, going up and up and up, and there it was. The Good- year blimp times 10. But without the cabin underneath it. This thing was slick. A football the size of a football field. Gunmetal gray. Blinding white light poured out of both ends, but the thing itslef made no noise, the ice beneath it grinding and exploding like a string of M-80s. Sheila figured it was about a quarter-mile above her, just off shore. It rocked back and forth like a teeter-totter. She knew what it was. She read the Weekly Worked News. She saw "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." but she didn't believe it. It couldn't be real, and yet there it was, moving now, one end swinging ponderously toward shore, dipping down, closer and closer toward her. Sheila started running and she ran right into Henry, who swore and started running, too. They beat it back to the car like a couple of hicks in a Mar- tian move. Henry hit the gas. Sheila locked the doors and told the kids to get down. "You don't think they're going to come and get us?" Sheila asked. Henry was oblivious. "Wow," he said. "This is great. I'm gonna get the binoculars." Three minutes later, Sheila had hustled the kids out of the car and into the back bedroom. She opened the closet door. "Get in there," she said and shut the door before they could argue. She pulled down all the window blinds, turned off the lights and locked the bed- room door. Then she walked into the living room. Henry was standing by the window that faced the lake. The object had moved out over the ice. It seemed to be descending. Red and blue lights were now flashing sequentially along its lower edge. Sheila picked up the phone and called the Eastlake police. "I want to report a UFO," she told the cop who answered. He seemed insulted. "There's something out there," she said. I'm watching it now." He told her to call Lost Nation Airport in Willoughby. Probably an adver- tising plane, a helicopter. Sheila called the airport. The guy in the tow- er told her they had nothing taking off or landing. She asked if there were any weird blips on his radar screen. He said no. He figured maybe it was the planets, Venus and Jupiter. She should call NASA. All the time Sheila was watching it. It was about five miles out now, still descending, red and blue lights flashing as if it was going to crash. She called the cops back. They told her unusual activity over the lake was the responsibility of the Coast Guard. Sheila called Fairport Harbor. They suggested Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. "Everybody thinks I'm nuts," she told Henry. Suddenly a series of bright triangular yellow lights shot out of the center of the object. These triangles, there were five or six of them, it was hard to count they moved so quickly, looked about the size of a single-seat Cessna. They hovered point-up around the object. Then darted north, then east, head- ing inland toward the Perry nuclear power plant. Sheila had never seen any- thing move that fast. Zero to warp-speed in less than a nanosecond. Without making a sound. She called the Coast Guard again. This time they said they were sending a crew by the house. Sheila let her kids out of the closet, but made them stay in the bedroom with the door locked. Mobile Unit 2 was a 1984 blue Chevy Suburban and the two guys in it were gung- ho. Seaman James Powers and Petty Officer John Knaub said they could see the lights from Fairport Harbor. They figured they were flares. Fishermen trapped out on the ice, that kind of thing. They were towing a 22-foot Boston Whaler just in case. Sheila and Henry pointed to the object they now thought of as the mother ship. A co of the triangles were zipping around it. Powers and Knaub didn't say a word. Instead of driving onto the beach, they four-wheeled the Chevy up the ridge. The ice was going nuts, rippling and rumbling and roaring. Sheila and Henry got out. The windows were down and they could hear Knaub and Powers talking to the base. "Be advised the object appears to be landing on the lake," they said. "Be advised there are other objects moving in around it. Be advised these smaller objexts are going at high rates of speed. There are no engine noises and they are very, very low. Be advised these are not planets." All of a sudden one of the triangles zoomed toward the Chevy, low, just above the ice, a blur of light blistering straight at them. Knaub quickly rolled the van back down the ridge. The triangle veered east, then went straight up and came down beside the mother ship. Sheila told Knaub to turn his lights off. "Why attract attention" she asked. Fifteen miles to the southeast, not too far from the Perry plant, Cindy Hale stepped outside to walk her dog. She noticed a triangular light hovering above her. The dog began to whine and cower. Cindy took it back inside. But she came out again. The triangle flashed a sequence of multicolored lights and Cindy responded by flicking her Bic. This went on for about 30 minutes, then the triangle accelerated and was gone. It didn't make a sound. Tim Keck was observing the stars through his telescope when a bright triangular object caught his eye. Luckily, Time had his camera with him. It wasn't a great camera. In fact, it was a little plastic number he had gotten free from Burger King. But it worked, and he took a picture of the triangle before it disappeared silently over the horizon. Back at the lake, the mother ship was almost on the ice. For an hour, Henry had stood on the ridge and listened as Powers and Knaub communicated with their base. They said things like, "You should be advised that the object is now shining lights all over th lake and it's turning different colors." The ice thundered. Powers and Knaub had to yell to be heard. Henry thought the big ship was in trouble. So did Sheila. She had gone back to the house. The kids were still locked in the bedroom and she watched from the window. Suddenly the triangles were back. They shot one by one into the side of the mother ship as it seemed to set down on the howling ice. It flashed a sequence of red, blue and yellow lights. Sheila thought they looked beautiful. Then the white light that poured from the front of the object turned red and the triangles reappeared, hovering over it. The ice boomed, louder and louder, and then suddenly it stopped. The lights disap- peared. So did the triangles. Now there was nothing. Darkness and silence. Powers and Knaub drove off white-faced. Sheila and Henry stood watch through the night. In the morning all that remained were scattered chunks of broken ice. But that evening, the triangles returned. Sheila called the Coast Guard. This time they sent three people. But they arrived too late and the triangles were gone. To reassure the Bakers, they called Lost Nation Airport and talked to Elizabeth Mele in the control tower who told them the two bright lights in the sky were Venus and Jupiter, and the flashing lights were gases in the atmosphere. That was Saturday. On Monday, The Plain Dealer ran a short item headlined "Cozying of Jupiter, Venus light up sky." The Lake County News-Herald ran a similar version with the caption "Sky-gazers mistake planets for UFOs." Sheila called Fairport Harbor. Powers and Knaub weren't there. She left a message. They didn't call back. She called again and again and again. Nothing. Four years later, she's still confused. "The government flat-out denies it happened and I was standing there with two government employees watching it and they saw it and then they disappear." Chief Leo Deon said the Coast Guard had no official policy in regard to UFOs, and since there were no more sightings that was the end of it. All personnel assigned to Fairport Harbor in 1988 have been rotated out. Deon said he couldn't locate Powers, who had left the service, or Knaub through personnel records, because those records have been archived in Washington. "It was big around the station for a while," says retired executive officer Greg Reid. "Then it just fizzled out." Sheila Baker frowns and points a finger. "You start to worry," she says. --------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- This case was originally investigated by Rick Dell'Aquila and Dale Wedge who were members of MUFON in 1988.

AT 2035 LCL THIS STATION RCVD A CALL FROM SHEILA BAKER [BLANKED OUT THE ADDRESS] RPTNG A LARGE OBJECT HOVERING OVER THE LAKE AND APPARENTLY ON A SLOW DECENT. THE OBJECT HAD A WHITE LIGHT AND WAS APPROX. 1/4 MILE UP AND SHE WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE HOW FAR OUT IT WAS. THIS UNIT SENT 2 CREWMEMBERS TO INVESTIGATE. BEFORE THEY ARRIVED O/S, WE RCVD 2 MORE CALLS RPTNG THAT THE OBJECT HAD APPARENTLY DISPERSED 3-5 SMALLER FLYING OBJECTS THAT WERE ZIPPING AROUND RATHER QUICKLY. THESE OBJECTS HAD RED, GREEN, WHITE AND YELLOW LIGHTS ON THEM THAT STROBED INTERMITTENTLY. THEY ALSO HAD THE ABILITY TO STOP AND HOVER IN MID FLIGHT. WHEN MOBILE 02 GOT O/S, THEY RPTD THE SAME ACTIVITY. THEY WATCHED THE OBJECTS FOR APPROX. 1 HOUR BEFORE RPTNG THAT THE LARGE OBJECT WAS ALMOST ON THE ICE. THEY RPTD THAT THE ICE WAS CRACKING AND MOVING ABNORMAL AMOUNTS AS THE OBJECT CAME CLOSER TO IT. THE ICE WAS RUMBLING AND THE OBJECT LIT MULTI-COLOR LIGHTS AT EACH END AS IT APPARENTLY LANDED. THE LIGHTS ON IT WENT OUT MOMENTARILY AND THEN CAME ON AGAIN. THEY WENT OUT AGAIN AND THE RUMBLING STOPPED AND THE ICE STOPPED MOVING. THE SMALLER OBJECTS BEGAN HOVERING IN THE AREA WHERE THE LARGE OBJECT LANDED AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES THEY BEGAN FLYING AROUND AGAIN. MOBILE 02 RPTD THAT THEY APPEARED TO BE SCOUTING THE AREA. MOBILE 02 RPTD THAT 1 OBJECT WAS MOVING TOWARD THEM AT A HIGH SPEED AND LOW TO THE ICE. MOBILE 02 BACKED DOWN THE HILL THEY HAD BEEN ON AND WHEN THEY WENT BACK TO THE HILL, THE OBJECT WAS GONE. THEY RPTD THAT THE OBJECTS COULD NOT BE SEEN IF THEY TURNED OFF THERE LIGHTS. ONE OF THE SMALL OBJECTS TURNED ON A SPOTLIGHT WHERE THE LARGE OBJECT HAD BEEN BUT MOBILE 02 COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING, AND THEN THE OBJECT SEEMED TO DISAPPEAR. ANOTHER OBJECT APPROACHED MOBILE 02 APPROX. 500 YDS. OFFSHORE ABOUT 20 FT. ABOVE THE ICE, AND IT BEGAN MOVING CLOSER AS MOBILE 02 BEGAN FLASHING ITS HEADLIGHTS, THEN IT MOVED OFF TO THE WEST. 3. THE CREWMEMBERS WERE UNABLE TO IDENTIFY ANY OF THE OBJECTS USING BINOCULARS AND AFTER CONTACTING LOCAL POLICE AND AIRPORTS, THIS UNIT WAS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY THE OBJECTS, AND RECALLED MOBILE 02.

I have seen these documents at seminars and such. I >also know these documents can be obtained via the "Freedom of >Information Act". .. try to pick up a copy of Lawrence Fawcett and Barry Greenwood's "Clear Intent" (Prentiss-Hall, 1984). In includes two chapters on the FBI, and includes portions of various FOIA-obtained documents. You also might want to subscribe to CAUS's magazine "Just Cause" -- CAUS specializes in UFO-related FOIA cases (the authors of "Clear Intent" are from CAUS). >I would like to know how to obtain these >documents from respective government agencies using the >"Freedom of Information Act". .. portions extracted from a Int'l UFO Reporter, May/June 1987 article by Don Schmitt and Paul Jeffries (IUR is the magazine of CUFOS): The FOIA is a federal law which provides that all records of agencies of the federal government are open to the public unless there is a specific exemption from disclosure. Some of the exemptions are: * in legitimate matters of national security - for instance, to protect intelligence sources. * intra-agency memoranda may also be exempted (that is, requests for those documents may be legitimately turned down.) An outline of what the authors suggest as the best way to seek federal agency records via the FOIA: 1) "Determine first which agency has the records" - if you aren't sure which it is, check the "United States Government Manual" (available from the Office of the Federal Register, Nat'l Archives and Records Admin., National Referral Center, Library of Congress, Washington DC. The article gives the phone number as 202-287-5670, but I can't vouch for it, and I also don't know what it might cost.) If in doubt, contact each potentially relevant agency, and speak/correspond with the "Freedom of Information Officer". The FIO will tell you if his/her agency has the records, and if not, what agency does. 2) "Write to the FIO". (Keep copies of everything, with dates) 3) "Make your request pursuant to the FIOA", e.g. include the following: "I am writing to request agency records pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C 552." 4) "Arrange to pay the agency for search and copy fees." The agency is allowed to do this, so be prepared to spend the money. Ask the agency what it charges for search and copy of requested records. In your letter, tell the agency that you are willing to pay all fees, or will pay all fees up to a certain amount in complying with your request. For instance, "I agree to pay search and copying fees required to satisfy this request up to $35. If you anticipate the total fees will exceed $35, please expend $35 to retrieve those records which are most responsive and readily available, and advise me as to the amount of any additional fees necessary to comply with this request." 5) "Describe precisely which records you want" - describe the records you are after as specifically as possible - such as subject matter, relevant dates (or periods), authors, recipients, etc. The more specific you get, the more likely it is that they'll find what you're after promptly (and cheaply, for you.) 6) "Use 'and' and 'or'". Ask for all records that concern "inquiry number 1" or "inquiry number 2", or that have to do with both "1" and "2" -- this will lessen the chances of the agency playing grammatical games with you. 7) "Ask for 'disclosure of all reasonably segregable portions of records which are in whole or in part except from disclosure'". That is, you are instructing the agency to send you portions of documents that are disclosable, even if another portion of the document is exempt from disclosure laws. This "reasonably segregable" part is part of the law, and accounts for documents you may have seen with parts blacked-out -- the blacked-out parts were exempt. 8) "Tell the agency you expect a written reply within the statutory time limits of the FOIA". The agency must make a written "determination" within 10 days of receipt of your request (so you may wish to send your requests as registered mail, to nail down the date). In unusual circumstances the agency may take an additional 10 days -- these 'days' do not include Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays, i.e. "working days". The agency gets 20 days for determination of appeals (see below), with an additional 10 days allowed for "unusual circumstances". 9) "If the agency does not answer your request on time, appeal immediately." Find out from the agency to whom you should appeal. Appeal in writing, and include copies of all relevant correspondence (your request, their response - if any, etc.) 10) "If the agency denies your request on merits, appeal immediately." That is, the agency may claim that the documents you seek are exempt from diclosure, and you will have to appeal that claim to whomever handles appeals for that agency. 11) "If the agency denies your appeal you can sue." Consult legal counsel before doing so, and listen to what they say about your chances. Note that suing the government can be very expensive. FOIA cases are heard in Federal District court (according to the article, the courts give "some priority" to FOIA cases). If you win, the court may award you lawyer's fees and court costs. "Do not let mere claims by the agency that the records you seek are exempt deter you. Federal courts interpret narrowly the FOIA's exemptions, in favor of disclosure and against secrecy."

Message-ID: Newsgroups: alt.alien.visitors,alt.paranormal This is another report on one of the highlights of the 1992 MUFON Symposium in Albuquerque, NM, July 11-12. In his talk "Ufology in the Commonwealth of Independent States" on July 11, Vladimir Ajaja (pronounced "ah ZHAH zhah"), President of the UFO Centre, Moscow, reported on the state of UFO research and public involvement in the subject in the former Soviet Union. Most of his talk was academic and unremarkable until near the end, when he made the startling claim that there may be as many as 5000 persons reported permanently missing in association with UFO events, and that there have been some human bodies found mutilated in much the same way cattle have been found mutilated in the US, with their reproductive organs missing. The author sought out Dr. Ajaja after his talk to confirm and amplify his claim. When asked how many humans were found mutilated, he said three, two in Russia and one in Chile. The author then discussed the matter with Linda Moulton Howe, producer of the film _Strange Harvest_, author of the book _Alien Harvest_, and leading researcher on animal mutilations. She was aware of Dr. Ajaja's claim and intended to look into it, but cautions everyone not to make too much of it until Western ufologists can investigate the matter. jdr@starflight.corp.sun.com, starflt@uunet.uu.net Jon Roland Starflight Corporation, 1755 E Bayshore Rd #9A, Redwood City, CA 94063-4142, 415/361-8141 -- Michael Corbin - via ParaNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Michael.Corbin@p0.f428.n104.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Michael.Corbin@p0.f428.n104.z1.FIDONET.ORG (Michael Corbin) Subject: Hollywood Gets Kgb Ufo Data Date: 19 Jul 92 05:04:03 GMT * Forwarded from "Alt.Alien.Visitors" * Originally from Jon Roland * Originally dated 07-16-92 12:38 From: jdr@starflight.Corp.Sun.COM (Jon Roland) Date: 16 Jul 92 02:56:54 GMT Organization: Sun Microsystems, Inc.

In the joint session taking questions from the audience on July 11, Richard F. Haines, who had earlier in the day given a talk entitled "Fifty-Six Aircraft Pilot Sightings Involving Electromagnetic Effects", and who is the founder and co-director of the Joint American-Soviet Aerial Anomaly Federation (the other co-director being Dr. Vladimir Ajaja), disclosed that members of the KGB are currently negotiating with Hollywood film companies for the rights to their UFO data. This raises some serious questions about the handling of this potentially important data. Is it going to be disclosed to the world in the dramatized and distorted way Hollywood is noted for treating historic data on other subjects? If so, then this could be a disaster for public understanding and scientific inquiry on the subject. Anyone having any influence in the matter should urge those acquiring this data to report it straight and completely and not to Hollywoodize it. jdr@starflight.corp.sun.com, starflt@uunet.uu.net Jon Roland Starflight Corporation, 1755 E Bayshore Rd #9A, Redwood City, CA 94063-4142, 415/361-8141 -- Michael Corbin - via ParaNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: Michael.Corbin@p0.f428.n104.z1.FIDONET.ORG -------------------------------------------------------------------- From: ParaNet.Information.Service@p0.f428.n104.z1.FIDONET.ORG (sm) Subject: MJ-12 The Ultimate Secret?? Date: 20 Jul 92 03:05:01 GMT Below is another contribution from the Phoenix Project, a mysterious group located in Carson City, Nevada. This file details some new information concerning MJ-12. As before, ParaNet makes no claims to the accuracy or validity of the information. It is being provided for information only and is not to be construed as an endorsement by ParaNet. This document also gets a similar rating of highly unreliable as the previous documents concerning Dulce, New Mexico and the K-2 alien base. The reader will note that the author appears to be unfamiliar with the major players as they note that the person in charge of the underground hangar facility is William C. Cooper. They go on to state that this person is the famous UFOlogist that we love and admire so much, Milton "Bilkum" William Cooper. Obviously, they are either way off base with their accuracy, or they have deliberately done this to throw us off the scent as to who the real authors of this material are. It does bear a strange resemblance to Cooper's allegations. It would not surprise ParaNet to find that deep beneath the public layer of the Phoenix Project we might find John Grace, John Lear and of course, Bill Cooper. If not, then someone closely related to them coming at us under a new name, of course, since the other names have been so hopelessly trashed. So, with that in mind, let's proceed . . .

Truman in 1947. Operation Majestic-12, was created to take charge of the technical, sociological and other aspects of the crashed UFOs and the small alien occupants, dead or alive, that were recovered. In later years this operation evolved into and became known as MAJI (the Majority Agency for Joint Intelligence). MAGI is the most secret of all intelligence groups and out-ranks all other intelligence agencies including the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). MAJI is responsible directly and "only" to the President of the United States. -- ParaNet(sm) Information Service - via ParaNet node 1:104/422 UUCP: !scicom!paranet!User_Name INTERNET: ParaNet(sm).Information.Service@p0.f428.n104.z1.FIDONET.ORG ******************************************************************************* Submissions infopara@scicom.alphacdc.com Administrative requests infopara-request@scicom.alphacdc.com FTP archive grind.isca.uiowa.edu:/info/paranet/infopara Permission to distribute Michael.Corbin@paranet.org Private mail to Paranet/Fidonet users firstname.lastname@paranet.org UUCP gateway {ncar,isis,csn}!scicom *********************End**of**the**InfoPara**Newsletter************************
