Ex-military men say unknown intruders have monitored and even tampered with American nuclear missiles

Group to call on U.S. Government to reveal the facts

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Witness testimony from more than 120 former
or retired military personnel points to an ongoing and alarming intervention by unidentified aerial
objects at nuclear weapons sites, as recently as 2003. In some cases, several nuclear missiles
simultaneously and inexplicably malfunctioned while a disc-shaped object silently hovered nearby. 
Six former U.S. Air Force officers and one former enlisted man will break their silence about these
events at the National Press Club and urge the government to publicly confirm their reality.

One of them, ICBM launch officer Captain Robert Salas, was on duty during one missile disruption
incident at  Malmstrom Air Force Base and was ordered to never discuss it.  Another participant,
retired Col. Charles Halt, observed a disc-shaped object directing beams of light down into the
RAF Bentwaters airbase in England and heard  on the radio that they landed in the nuclear weapons
storage area. Both men will provide stunning details about these events, and reveal how the U.S.
military responded.

Captain Salas notes, "The U.S. Air Force is lying about the national security implications of unidentified
aerial objects at nuclear bases and we can prove it." Col. Halt adds, "I believe that the security services
of both the United States and the United Kingdom have attempted—both then and now—to subvert the
significance of what occurred at RAF Bentwaters by the use of well-practiced methods of disinformation."

The group of witnesses and a leading researcher, who has brought them together for the first time,
will discuss the national security implications of these and other alarmingly similar incidents and will
urge the government to reveal all information about them. This is a public-awareness issue.

Declassified U.S. government documents, to be distributed at the event, now substantiate the reality of
UFO activity at nuclear weapons sites extending back to 1948. The press conference will also address
present-day concerns about the abuse of government secrecy as well as the ongoing threat of nuclear weapons.

US Military Officers: UFOs Deactivated Nukes
EX-AIR FORCE CAPTAIN GIVING PRESS CONFERENCE TODAY
  
(NEWSER) – Extraterrestrials do exist … and they apparently are not fans of our missiles, according to a few former US Air Force officers. Capt. Robert Salas and some of his colleagues will give a press conference in Washington, DC, today to testify that UFOs have appeared at numerous nuclear weapons sites—and that the government has been keeping these appearances a secret, AOL News reports.

One of Salas’s stories involves a “glowing red oval-shaped” UFO that hovered above a Montana Air Force base he was stationed at in 1967 and shut off all 10 nuclear missiles simultaneously. He was later told the incident was not an Air Force exercise, and was commanded never to talk about it. Salas and other military eyewitnesses are now coming forward in an effort to get the public to believe.

Washington, DC -  Today at the National Press Club testimony from one researcher and seven former members of the United States Air Force was presented to more than two dozen print and television reporters.   The subject was: the UFO-Nukes Connection.  It was sponsored and organized by researcher Robert Hastings, author of UFOs and Nukes: Extraordinary Encounters at Nuclear Weapons Sites, and Capt. Robert Salas (USAF retired).

This was the third major witness press conference addressing UFO/ET related issues.   The first was in May of 2001 (Disclosure Project) and the second in November of 2007 (Kean/Fox).    PRG believes this press conference may prove the most important and has the potential to end the truth embargo by triggering a major shift in media coverage.   Why?  It is the direct connection to nuclear facilities and national security.  Such a connection gives an already spring loaded media a clear hook upon which to hang their hat and purse and get to work.

Notably the event was live streamed in full by CNN to the Internet and is available at: www.blip.tv/file/4172861

"What should happen now," stated PRG executive director Stephen Bassett, who attended the event, "is for members of the political press to direct specific questions regarding this testimony at the press spokespersons for the Department and Defense, U.S. Air Force and the Central Intelligence Agency and expect answers from Secretaries Robert Gates, Michael Donley and Leon Panetta."

"At least that is what is supposed to happen if the political media in Washington, DC are not under government- or self-imposed restraints."

Aliens 'interfered with nuclear arms'
Former members of the US air force have claimed aliens had interfered with nuclear weapons - including during one famous incident in Britain.
UFO researcher Robert Hastings held a press conference in Washington yesterday to “address the vital issue of UFO incursions at US nuclear weapons sites over the past six decades”.

Mr Hastings said: “More than 100 former or retired US Air Force personnel - once trusted to operate or guard weapons of mass destruction - have come forward and revealed ongoing UFO surveillance of, and occasional interference with, our nuclear weapons.

“This information alters the historical perspective on the nuclear arms race and much, much more," he said.
“The fact that the Pentagon and CIA have successfully kept the truth from public view for so long is in itself mind-boggling.”

The Rendlesham Forest incident, often described as “Britain’s Roswell” was used as one example of evidence aliens had targeted nuclear weapons. The incident, in the early hours of December 27th, 1980, was never fully explained.

Several US air force personnel reported seeing a strange metallic object hovering in the forest near RAF Woodbridge in Suffolk. The object apparently left three depressions in the ground.

But papers released by the National Archives show the Ministry of Defence’s final position was that there was “no evidence of anything having intruded into British airspace”.
