BIO: Colonel Fredrick “Fred” Claussen was born in 1942 in Burwell, Nebraska, the only son of a baker and a telephone operator. His interest in space and UFOs began at a young age, and by eleven he had built a two-person “spaceship,” even attempting a launch—an early sign of a lifelong fascination with flight and aerospace. As a teenager, he set his sights on becoming a fighter pilot. After moving to Lincoln, Nebraska, Claussen graduated from Lincoln Northeast High School and attended the University of Nebraska, where he participated in Air Force ROTC and the marching band. He joined the U.S. Air Force in 1963 and began his flying career as a B-52 navigator from 1965 to 1968. He later attended pilot training, graduating first in his class, before transitioning to the F-105. Between 1969 and 1970, Claussen flew 126 combat missions in Southeast Asia and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross twice. From 1970 to 1983, he served in multiple fighter assignments, flying the F-105, F-4, and F-15. He went on to hold senior leadership roles, including Director of Exercises in South Korea, Director of Exercises at Headquarters Tactical Air Command, Tactical Air Control Wing Commander, Chief of Staff of the 7th Air Force in South Korea, and Director of Combat Analysis at U.S. Central Command in Tampa, Florida. He retired in 1992 with the rank of colonel. In 1980, while flying an F-15, Colonel Claussen intercepted a UFO—an encounter that remains central to his public testimony and perspective on UAP. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Business and Management from Kansas Newman College and a master’s degree in Aviation Technology from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. In retirement, Claussen pursues astronomy, remains active with family, and has assisted filmmaker James Fox with UAP research. He is married to his wife, Sunny, and has four children and three grandchildren
