On\nAugust 30, 1947, Rhodes brought negatives of the photographs he allegedly\ntook at that time- into the Phoenix Office and he was advised by SA J. Bailey\nBrower that the negatives were being accepted by the FBI for Air Force\nintelligence; that there was a question as to whether he would ever get the\nnegatives back. With this understanding Rhodes left the negatives which were\nin turn turned over to George Fugate, Jr., military representative.\nOn April 17, 1950, Rhodes contacted the Phoenix Office for the\nreturn of the negatives at which time he was advised of the statement made to\nhim in 1947 that the negatives were accepted for Air Force intelligence and it\n!\nwas doubtful if they would be returned, but that he should contact the Office of\nfSpecial Investigations of the Air Force, San Francisco, California.\nSAC McMahon advised that today the Arizona Republic newspaper\nwas doing a column about flying saucers having been reported over the years and\nhad interviewed Rhodes since their clips showed that he had been talked to back\nin 1947. Rhodes told the Arizona Republic that the FBI had borrowed the\nnegatives of films he had taken but had never returned them. SAC McMahon\ndesired advice as to what he should tell the Arizona Republic and he was\ninformed that he should advise the paper that the negatives were received in 1947\nfrom Rhodes with the understanding they would be turned over to Air Force\n(;......-­\nintelligence and that there was doubt as to whether the negatives would ever be\nreturned to Rhodes; that with this understanding Rhodes released the negatives;\nthat the negatives in question were immediately turned over to Air Force\nintelh.·gence representatives; and that should any further information be desired\n~ concerning the matter the Arizona Republic should contact the Office of Special\n/1 lilyestigations of the Air Force.

Gribble said: \"Although the accounts con­\nsidered in this study did not contain scientific measurements of each\nsighting, it was possible to establish certain valid conclusions by\nthe application of statistical methods in the treatment of the data.\nAnalyzed and arranged, the data did show a marked pattern.\n\"On the basis of this marked pattern of the data, A.P.R.G. has\nconcluded that a high percentage of the more than 5,000 accounts of\nunidentified flying objects examined in this study represent observ­\nations of technological developments outside the range of present-day\nscientific knowledge.\n\"Therefore, it is highly probable that many of the unidentified\nflying objects considered in this study are 'spacecraft from other\nplanets 1 •\n11\nA.P.R.G. highly recommends that all national security· agencies\ntake immediate steps to strip the unidentified flying objects of the\nspecial n secrecy status\" they have been given and. the aura of mystery\nthey have unfortunatly acquired.\nEND."

Joseph Ierry, 3079 Edwards Street, Grand Blanc,\nMichigan, was contacted at his request by Agents of this office\non ~arch 5, 1960.\nHr .

This 18 reflected in ADAM' •\nnot having a wife.\nHe said that ADAM waa not an individual\nbut a race or men.\nUe said that this race then 1nter­\nmaor1ed with \"intelligent, upright walking anlmals, 11 which\nrace waa EVE.\nThen when the space people came back in the\nsupply IShipa they saw what had happened and did not land\nbut ever, since due to the origin of ADAM, 'they have watched\nover the people on earth.\nHe said that this is recorded 1n\nthe Bible many times, such aa MOSES receiving the Ten\ncommandments.\nHe said the Ten Commandments are the laws or\ntne space people and men on earth only give them lip service.\nAlso, the manna trom heaven waa bread suppl1ed by the space\npeople.\nHe alao stated that this can be seen trom the native\nstories auch as the Indiana in America saying that corn and\npotatoes, unknown 1n Europe, were brought here by a \"flaming\noanoe. 11\nHe said th1a refers to a epace ahip and the Irid.1ana•\nhighest torm or transportation was the canoe, ao they l ikened\nit unto that.\nHe said this can be shown also by the old\natoriea ot Winged Chariots and Winged White Horaea, which\ncame f'rom out of' the &lcy'.\nlie aa1d that JISUS waa born or\nMARY, who waa a apace person sent here al rea~ pregnant in\norder to show the earth people the proper way to live.\nHe\naa1d the apace people have watched over us thro~ the years\nand have tried to help ua.\nHe eaid they have sent their\nagents to the earth and they appear Juat aa we do; however,"

Also included with the manuscript was a\ncopy of the author's transmittal letter to the Department of the Army stating he would\nlike to know the name, rank/grade, title and office of each person who actually conducts\nthe review of Bryant's article. A review of the article r evealed it is a criticism of the\nDepartment of Defense's policy with regard to issuing clearances of articles relative\nto Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO), particularly when the author is employed by the\nU.S. Army as in the case of Bryant. The article is in essence a history of Bryant's\nproblems in getting articles published on UFO.\nReferences to the FBI are as follows: On page 2, Bryant indicates he\nwill reveal the role played by the FBI in monitoring UFO research activities of Army\ncivilian employees. On page 6, Bryant refers to his being irt erviewed on 9-17-63 by\nSpecial Agent John S. Castles of our Norfolk Office. Bryant states SA Castles con­\ntacted him in response to Bryant's letter of 7 -23-63 to the Sheriff of Sussex County,\nVirginia, requesting UFO sighting data. Bryant alleged that SA Castles inquired about\nBr yant's letter to the Sussex County Sheriff as well as to a similar letter dated 8-8-63\nto the Commander of the Norfolk, Virginia, Naval Base. Bryant claims he asked\nSA Castles if it was customary for the FBI to question people who expressed an interest\nin UFO. SA Castles replied in the negative and added that \"Since his office was queried\nby the addressees of the two letters he was just seeking information on which he could\nwrite a 'memorandum for the files. '\" Bryant also states that SA Castles volunteered\nthe following: \"If the FBI has any such data (on UFO sightings), it is probably of an\nintelligence nature and thus would be unavailable to the public and to privat~~iuals!'\nINFORMATION IN BUREAU FILES:\n1,1/~\no ;_;\nBureau files reveal an inquiry from Bryant to the Director in February,\n1959, regarding the investi~»on of UFO.

   "text": "M.\" A. Jones to DeLoach\n•\nRe: LARRY W. BRYANT\nBy letter dated 9/17/63, Bryant advised he had been interviewed on that\ndate by SA Castles (Senior Resident Agent, Newport News, Virginia, assigned Norfolk\nOffice, EOD 2/2/48, GS-13) regarding Bryant's interest in reports of sightings of UFO.\nAccording to Bryant, Castles stated he was contacting him in connection with his\ninquiries and that he intended to prepare \"a memorandum for the files.\" Bryant\nrequested a copy of SA Castles memorandum. Prior to responding to Bryant, the\nNorfolk Office advised as follows: Bryant has directed a voluminous amount of corre­\nspondence to military officials in the area and as Bryant was employed by the Department\nof the Army, Fort Eustis, Virginia, the G-2 Section of the Second Army, Fort Meade,\nMaryland, was conducting a background check of Bryant. The Norfolk Office\nwas in receipt of several letters directed to other government agencies which were\nsubsequently forwarded to the Norfolk Office. This included a letter to the Commanding\nOfficer, Headquarters, Aircraft Fleet, Atlantic U. S. Naval Base, Norfolk, Virginia,\n6/15/60; Commanding Officer, Cape Charles Air Force Station, Cape Charles, Virginia,\n8/7/ 58; Commander, U. s. Naval Base, Norfolk, Virginia, 8/8/ 63; Sheriff's Office,\nSussex County, postmarked Fort Eustis, Virginia, 7/23/63.\nBryant was interviewed on 9A7/ 63 by SA Castles in order to obtain back­\nground information concerning him in order to reply to the correspondence from the\nSussex County Sheriff's Office and the U. S. Naval Base, Norfolk, Virginia, mentioned\nabove. At the conclusion of the interview, Bryant wanted to know what would be done\nabout the information he furnished SA Castles at which time he was told that the infor­\nmation he furnished would be made a matter of record in FBI files.\nBryant was subsequently advised by in-absence letter of 9/27/63 that the\nconfidential nature of our files would preclude complying with his request (the copy of SA\nCastles' memorandum concerning his interview with Bryant.)\nIt appears that the reference to the FBI on page 6 of Bryant's manuscript\nis not completely true. However, it has the effect of leavililg the wrong impression; the\nFBI was not investigating 1EryaIJ.t but was merely interviewing him in order to respond\nto inquiries directed to us from other agencies. SA Castles did not interview Bryant\nmerely for the purpose of writing \"a memorandum for the files\" but that his interview\nof Bryant would be made a matter of record in FBI files. Also, the phraseology used\nby Bryant regarding SA Castles' reference to the confidential nature of FBI files could\nbe misleading. These points should.be brought to the attention of the Department of\nDefense.\nRECOMMENDATION:\nThat Bryant's manuscript on UFO be returned to the Department of Defense·\nby our liaison representative with that agency at which time that agency can be informed\nthat the FBI does not agree with Bryant's portrayal of his interview by the FBI or his\nmisrepresentation of the Bureau's role in investigating of UFO. However, the Depart­\nment of Defense should not attribute these comments to the FBI and we are deferring\n\\ to their judgments as to authorizing publication of the article. (.#.> ..

They l anded on Mojove (or Mohove) Desert in a\nsm~ll flyi ng saucer, 200 mi les east of Los Angeles . They learned to\nspea~ English by listening (persumably in outer space?) to broadcasts\nof r adio and television.\nCHARAC'.DERLSTICS,: : a) 6 foot 6 i nches in heighti b) emaciated; c) not\nwell clothed; d) bluish- green in complexion; e; prick ears; and f) ex­\ntremely successful i nvest igators .\nADDITIONAL FACTS: One of the above mentioned two men leaned over steel\ntop of filing cabinet and with his curiously curved hand, made an in­\ndentation in the steel at least½ inch deep . The indented steel was sent\nto a metallurgical chemist, who said that, to produce such indentati on,\nwould require a force of some 2, 000 lbs. to the inch. He also added\nthat traces of more than a dozen unknowD elements were found in the dents.\nCONCLUDI NG REMARKS :\na) It was reported that the F.B.I. sent several\nagents to invest igate these two men, but by the time the agent s, ar­\nrived the two vi sitors from outer space had disappeared (in mid -Feb ­\nruary 1953. )\ned in a vault.\nb) The steel filing cabinet is suppose to be lock-\nthe author , Wilkins, c) The story is suppose to have been rel at ed to\nby a Los Angeles reporter , who wished to remain\nanonymous.\nThe above is a condensed version of t he fact s presented in an\nar t i cl e , whi ch appeared in t he apendix of the previ ously menti oned\nHarold T.

I know this sounds extraordinary, but this is what it had .\nThe photo was probably faked but I wanted to be doubly sure. Please\nwrite me and tell me if there is any truth to this photo. Also this\nphoto was first published by some odd chance in a Cologne, Germany\nnewspaper.\nYours truly,\n/ s/\nSteven G.
