2. "It is true that I was denied access to a facility at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, because I never got in. I can't tell you what was inside. We both know about the rumors (concerning a captured UFO and crew members). I have never seen what I would call a UFO, but I have intelligent friends who have."
---US Senator, US Air Force General, and candidate for President, Barry Goldwater, quoted from a letter he wrote dated April 11, 1979.


The man was an Air Force Officer and was a candidate for the Presidency of the United States. What did he have to gain from making these comments? Yet – with those who accept the probability of alien visitations typically mocked and belittled – he had plenty to lose! Plus, he infer that despite his stature – he was a Senator from Arizona – he was denied access to a portion of a military base which suggests something very important must be hidden there and, further, Goldwater didn’t cover it up to protect his ego but, rather, was compelled to speak the truth.

3. "I've been convinced for a long time that the flying saucers are interplanetary. We are being watched by beings from outer space."
---Albert M. Chop, deputy public relations director, NASA, True Magazine , Jan. 1965.


This quote was new to me. Clearly, however, the man had the necessary training to appreciate the phenomenon and worked in an environment where he must have had the requisite knowledge of actual facts and, again, he had nothing to gain and potentially plenty to lose by speaking the truth.
