The Kelly, Kentucky UFO Goblins

admin

By Charles Lear (Halloween re-post)

   On August 21, 1955, there was an incident that took place on a farm located in the town of Kelly, 7 miles north of Hopkinsville, Kentucky that reads like it was straight out of a ‘50s sci-fi comic book.  The story has been recounted in many books and all over the internet but, because of its comic book nature, that it involved real people who were deeply affected and real people who did earnest and laudable investigations tends to be overlooked.

In an old farmhouse on a tobacco farm along the east side of Old Madisonville Road, a two lane gravel turnpike, eleven people, eight adults and three children were relaxing as evening set in.  The house and farm were owned by Glennie Lankford, a 50 year-old widow with children from two marriages.  Full time residents of the house were: Glennie, her three children from her second husband ages 7-12, her 21 year-old son from her first marriage, J.C (John Charley) Sutton and his 27 year-old wife, Alene.  Glennie’s 25 year-old son, Elmer “Lucky” Sutton, his 29 year-old wife, Vera, and their friends, 21 year-old Billy Ray Taylor and his 18 year-old wife June, had been staying at the house for a couple of months.  Alene’s brother, O.P. Baker, also in the house that night was in his 30’s and stayed overnight on a regular basis as it was a convenient place for him to be picked up and driven to work.  The Taylor and Sutton couples were on a break from their work with a traveling carnival.

UFOs, NICAP, and the CIA

admin

by Charles Lear

Of all the private organizations devoted to UFO investigation, the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena was arguably the most ambitious and tenacious. This was driven in large part by its director, Donald Keyhoe. Keyhoe held the beliefs that UFOs are extraterrestrial and that the U.S. Government, particularly the Air Force, was keeping information from the public that could possibly prove the ET hypothesis. As effective as NICAP was at hounding the Air Force and convincing many in the U.S. Congress that UFOs were deserving of scientific study, there are indications that the CIA was involved in both the beginning and the end of the organization.

Todd Zechel wrote about the CIA – NICAP connection in the January 1979 issue of Just Cause, the newsletter put out by Citizens Against UFO Secrecy. NICAP was incorporated in 1956, and two men Zechel argues were covert CIA operatives were put into chair positions within the organization. One of these men was Bernard J. O. Carvalho, who was made the chairman of NICAP’s membership subcommittee According to Zechel, Carvalho worked as a “front man” for companies secretly run by the CIA. The other was “Count” Nicolas de Rochefort, who was made Vice-Chairman of NICAP. According to Zechel, de Rochefort worked with the CIA’s Psychological Warfare Staff. Zechel tells the reader “there is more than ample evidence to conclusively establish both de Rochefort and Cavalho were at least during certain periods of their lives covert employees of the Central Intelligence Agency.”

Lights follow sister, she comes home and wakes my entire family, we all witness low hovering HUGE craft.

admin

Hello, ever since this event happened to me at the young age of 7, I have been and forever will be certain and inquisitive of the fact we are being visited/watched. For whatever reason, this event/subject has been weighing very heavily on my mind particularly the last 6 months. Feel need to share this story. Main differences I notice between the majority of stories I hear via podcast/articles and our story is the number of people witness to it and maybe more importantly, the height at which this vehicle was hovering over us to witness it was very low and blocking out a big portion of the night sky. So here it is.

When I was 7 years old, my 17 year old sister was out past curfew with her BF and came home not very sneakily and quite as she normally would in that situation, but came in freaking out yelling at us all “get up, get up, they’ve been following us all night and follower us home! They are hovering above our back yard right now! Come look! Come look!” So my Mom, Brother, Grandma, and myself all got out of bed around midnight or 1am to follow her outside and see what she was talking about and there it was! This massive huge black square or triangle shaped craft hovering over part of our back yard and into the farmland bordering our backyard. All 5 of us walked around our fence to stand behind our shed in the strip of grass between our yard and the corn field that year. It was pretty much silent, it had 6 big lights that would eluminate one at a time and each one was to my 7 year old recollection about 6 to 8 feet in diameter and lit up in a pattern that was almost a full circle, but before it completed the circle with last light, it would light up a light in what seemed to be the center of the craft. So almost like the pattern of a “G” . I remember looking to my left seeing my mom’s ficus just glued to it with mouth half open in awe, and then looking to my right and seeing my brother, my sister, and then my Grandma with the exact same look on their face. None of us thought to go get our home video camera, I believe my brother said he should go grab one of our family hunting guns, but my mom said no. But other than that, I just remembered we were all staring up at this thing in a memorized state basically, no one saying much, after the initial shock of the sight. To my recollection it lasted about 10 to 15 min, I could very clearly see the STRAIGHT line of the craft where the sky was getting blacked out on one side of craft and only way I felt you could notice its presence other than sight was this slight feeling that there was a vibration to the air, but I sometimes wonder if thus vibration feeling was due to the shock and awe state we were all in. My mother is very very religious and told us to not tall about it to anyone, even her, and I chalk that up to her mainly wanting us to not be the weird UFO kids, AND, I don’t think she could quantify it according to her religious foundation, because that would be admitting there is possibly a higher being other than God and us, whom God created. BUT since then, she has confronted it and come to realization that “if they exist, than God created them as well” that was the first time I realized she had gotten past it, and accepted it, and found a way to cope with it. Since that moment I’ve tried to talk her and my siblings and everyone has the exact same problem with remembering that event, which is, how did they leave? My mom and I both think they just slowly ascended over the tree line behind the corn field, my brother and sister have no definitive memory though, and really, neither does my mom or myself. I di remember running scared out of my mind along with the rest of my family around to the front of our house and into front door. Where we normally would enter through back door, and I ran right out of my dad’s grilling shoes and I know they were left in the yard that night due to that frantic run.

So thats in a nutshell, my family’s experience, my dad was out of town on business at the time. My brother and I, in spite of what my mom said, asked our neighbor friends if they saw anything, they didn’t, and then asked a couple other neighborhood kids and they hadn’t either. So this event has left me stumped, not really stumped I guess, but left me wanting more, more info, more recollection, and just more answers in general.

One weird thing I’ve discovered over the years, is my brother and my brother alone, remembers everything a bit different, he remembers 3 craft with 2 lights each and that we watched them from our sunroom and not from behind the shed. This detail has also been haunting me a buy as of late, as well as none of us not remembering clearly at all, if at all, how they left.

That’s my story, I’m sure I could get my sister and brother to tell it in own words as well and pretty good chance my mom as well, as I have been telling her lately, I need to get it out there, document it, and try and figure it out a bit more.

Thanks for the platform in order to start doing this.

A UFO Photographed in the Italian Alps

admin

by Charles Lear

In the hunt for proof that strange vehicles are flying through our atmosphere, possibly under the guidance of alien pilots, researchers have long looked to photographs. There are some, such as the McMinnville photos, that have become classics that continue to spark debate. Many have been passed through time by newspaper articles, books, magazines, documentaries, and websites. Of course, along with the photo, there is the story of the photographer, though getting that story straight might prove difficult.

In October of 1952, a story went across the newswires that a man in Italy had claimed to have taken pictures of a flying saucer and its occupant while climbing in the Bernina section of the Italian Alps. He told reporters that he saw a flying saucer land on a glacier. According to him, “a human shape wearing some sort of diving suit” got out, walked around the ship, and then got back in. The saucer rose up and “it took off without a sound at breathtaking speed.” He said he sold the photos to a French magazine.

The man was 29-year-old Italian engineer Gianpietro Monguzzi. His story is told in detail and his pictures are presented in the Sept.-Oct. 1958 issue of Flying Saucer Review. According to the article “Monguzzi Takes Saucer Photos of the Century,” written by Lou Zinstag, Monguzzi (first name given as Giampiero by Zinstag) worked as an engineer in Monza, near Milan, and was a member of the Edison Society of Italy. On July 31, 1952, he was hiking in the Bernina Mountains with his wife when they came across an object, shaped like a flying saucer, sitting on a glacier. Moguzzi wanted to get closer, but his wife was frightened and insisted he stay with her. He did so and took a series of pictures showing the saucer on the ground, a humanoid walking around it, and two “excellent photos of the ship’s departure.” Monguzzi ended up with a total of seven photos. At the top of the article, in a photo with a number two written on it, the saucer and the humanoid are both seen to have antennas.

UFOs Over Pine Bush, NY

admin

by Charles Lear

In the 1980s, New York’s Hudson River Valley was home to a wave of extraordinary UFO encounters by thousands of people. It was explained away as a hoax perpetrated by a group of nighttime pilots in ultralights and this was enough to make it fade from the public consciousness, even among those in the UFO community. However, one town in the area has kept the memory of the events alive with a yearly fair and a recently opened UFO museum.

A book about the wave, “Night Siege” by J. Allen Hynek, Philip Imbrogno, and Bob Pratt, was published in 1998. Hynek died in 1986 before the book was published but actively investigated and contributed to the book. His wife, Mimi, helped edit the book after his death.

According to “Night Siege,” the wave began in Kent, New York, on New Year’s Eve 1982 with a sighting by a retired New York City police officer identified by the pseudonym,“Tony Vallor. He’d just christened his new house by smashing a champagne bottle against it, and his wife had sent him back outside to clean up the broken glass after he’d told her about it. As he was cleaning up the glass, he saw a group of red, green, and white lights to the south. At first he thought he was seeing a jet having trouble but it was moving too slowly to be a jet.

A UFO Landing and a Meeting With Eisenhower

admin

by Charles Lear

From February 17 to February 24, 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower was in Palm Springs, California, on what was described to the public as a “vacation.” On February 20, he disappeared from public view and rumors spread to the point that the headline, “Pres. Eisenhower died tonight of a heart attack in Palm Springs.,” appeared on the Associated Press newswire. The story was removed two minutes later and the AP reported that he was still alive. UFOlogists have speculated on where he was that day, and some have come to the conclusion that Eisenhower went to Muroc Air Force Base for a secret meeting with alien visitors.

The earliest mention of Eisenhower and aliens being at Muroc appears in a letter from Gerald Light to Meade Layne, founder of the Borderland Sciences Research Association. Now a foundation, BSRF has preserved the letter, and the date on the link is April 16, 1954. The letter opens with this:
