He
repeatedly
demanded
that
Moore
be
investigated
for
distributing
documents
that
appeared
to
be extremely
sensitive,
and
for
exhibiting
an
identif icat ioa
indistinguishable
from
those
used
by
the
many
DIS
agents^
that
Graham
had encountered.
Rut
to
the
best
Knowledge,
Moore
has
never
been
interviewed
by
DIS
or
any
other
agency
concerning
these
serious
charges,
a
simple
matter
for
Pell's
office
to
request
an
investigation
of
Moore
on
the
basis
of
Graham's
charge
.
In
1987,
Graham was
paid
an
intimidating visit
at
his
workplace
by
FBI
Special
Agent
William Hurley,
accompanied
by
a
man
in
civilian
clothes
who
did
not
identify
him
'
but
who
was
later
identified
as
no
less
than
Major
Michael
Kerby,
USAF,
at
that
time
the
Director
of
the
Air
Force
Legislative Liaison
office.
Kerby
’ s
milita
y
differs
from
that
of
most
of
the
uniformed
players
in
drama,
in
that
he
seems
to
have
had
no
intelligence
background.
Prior
to
the
assignment
with congressio
liaison,
Kerby appears
to
have
been
in
command
o
e
operational
aspects
of
the
"stealth"
fighter
aircraft,
as
well
as
other
very
sensitive
aviation
activities
AFB
.
During
the
interview with
Hurley
and
his
companion,
G r a h a’m was
shown
a document
identifying
the
then
Top
Secret
designation
of
the
F-117
"Stealth"
fighter,
a
piece
°
information
Graham had
tirelessly
pursued through
Freedom
Information
Act
requests.
He
was
also
given
a
orm
o
certifying
that
he
had
been
given
information
"for
whic
y
have
no
need
to
know."
This
very
unusual
action
was
followed
by
a
lengthy
"pep
talk"
in
which Hurley
an
praised
Graham
for
his
work
in
disseminating
the
UJ-ll
documents!
Graham says
that
the
bulk
of
the
one
hour
interview
concerned
the
MJ-12
papers.
The
news
that
the
man
accompanying
FBI
Agent
Hurley
was
a
two-star
general
came
to
Graham
from
an unexpected
an
extraordinary
source:
C.
B.
Scott
Jones.
Graham
a
met
Jones,
nor
did
the
name
mean
anything
to
him
when
Jones
called
and
opened
the
conversation
by
saying
that
he
an
Graham
"had
a
mutual
acquaintance."
Jones
was
referring
the mystery
man who
accompanied
Special
Agent
Hurley
on
interview with Graham.
During
the
course
of
the
1Jould
conversation,
Jones promised
to
send
_ i nf orma t i on
that
would
help
Graham
identify
the mysterious
interviewer.
Shortly
thereafter,
Graham
received
a
note
from
Jones,
on
U.S.
Senate
letterhead,
together with
the
official
ir
Force
biography
of
Kerby,
including his
photograph.
Graham
recognized
the
face
at
once
as
that
of
the
man
" ho
accompanied
the
FBI
agent,
and
who
spoke
so enthusiastically
about
the
MJ-12
papers.

STRANGE
PRIORITIES
It
is
important
to
note
that
these
instances
of
"Government
-
UFO connections"
are
exceptionally
well
known
in ufological
circles,
having
been
discussed
at
great
length
in
a
variety
of
journals
and
newsletters.
So
it
is
indeed
odd
that
Jones
has
had
a
longstanding
relationship with
a
"ufologist"
who
claims
to
be
a
government
"controlled
informant,"
who
has
admitted
to
deceit
in
the
past,
but
who
claims
that
his
goal
is
simply
to
learn
the
truth
about
government-UFO activities.
The
anomaly
is
that
Jones
seems
to
avoid
similarly
close
links
to
credible
researchers
studying
federal
involvement
with
the
UFO
problem.
Of
course,
Scott's
services would
be
of
little
use
to
them because
he
"honestly"
does
"not
know
of
any
activity
of
the
U.S.
government"
in
the
field
of
UFOs.
The
Fund
for
UFO Research
has
concluded
that
breaking
the
federal
secrecy
about
UFOs
can
only
be
accomplished
through
the
legislative
branch
of
the
U.S.
government.
To
this
end,
the
Fund has
placed
top
priority
on preparing
video
and
written briefings
for
members
of
Congress
and
their
aides.
A meeting was
held
in
the
Fall
of
1991
to
gather
principal
UFO researchers
and
staff
from
relevant
* congressional
committees
in
order
to
assess
the
state
of
UFO
research.
Jones
was
invited,
and
one would
suppose
that
the
man
who
travels
so easily
to
China
and
the U.S.S.R.
would
have
no
problem attending
a meeting
of
such critical
importance
held
almost
literally
in his
own
back
yard.
He
did
not
attend.
Nor
did
the
other
congressional
staff
members
who
were
invited.

communication,

Whiting,
Secretary
of
the
Fund,

GOVERNMENT
UFO
CONNECTIONS
--
II
In
their
book
CjL e^r
^_n t^n_t
,
Fawcett
and
Greenwood
discuss
the
infiltration
of
the
National
Investigations
Committee
on
Aerial
Phenomena
(NICAP),
a
major
civilian
UFO
organization.
They
begin
their
discussion
by
reciting
the
activities
of
some
of
the
earliest
NICAP members
such
as
Nicholas
de
Rochefort,
employed
by
the
Psychological
Warfare
Staff
of
the
CIA,
Bernard
J.
0.
Carvalho,
who
was
involved
in various
secretly owned
CIA
business
enterprises,
and
vice
Admiral
Roscoe Hillenkoetter
,
the
first
Director
of
the
CIA.
Fawcett
and
Greenwood
go
on
to
say:
"Further evidence
of
CIA
influence
in
NICAP
developed
during
the
period
immediately
before
NICAP
' s
decline.
On
December
3,
1969,
Donald
Keyhoe was

as
NICAP' s
Director

Bryan,
former
Chief
of
the
CIA's
Psychological
Warfare
Staff
(1947-1953).
And
who
replaced
Keyhoe?
John
Acuff,
who
was
the
head
of
the
Society
of
Photographic
Scientists
and
Engineers
(SPSE),
a
frequent
target
of
Russian
spying
attempts
and,, a
group
that
had
many
members
involved
in
Defense
Department
intelligence
units,
including
the
CIA..
His
management
of
NICAP
was
f inanci al ly
.

'
(in
the
cheap
sense)
and
totally
inept
in
a
research
sense.
Criticism
of
government
UFO
policy
was
gone,
and
If I CAP merely

center.
Acuff
' s
management
drove
loyal members
away
and
ultimately
led
to
Acuff
1 s
downfall
in
1978.
"Who
replaced
Acuff?
Hone
other
than
Alan
Hall,
a
retired
CIA
employee,
who
accepted
the
position
after
a
number
of
other
CIA employees
were
offered
the
job.
Support
for
Hall
came
from
Charles
Lombard,
an
aide
to
Senator
Barry
Goldwater
and
a
former
CIA covert
employee.
"NICAP eventually
became
so
ineffective
that
it was
disolved."

there
parallels between
the
demise
of
NICAP
and
Jones'
activities

ASPR?
COLONELS
Scott’s
friend
Colonel
John
Alexander,
has
an
intriguing
background.
Besides
being
Jones'
fellow
researcher
on
anomalies
in
the
Bahamas,
he
has
displayed
a
long
term
interest
in
the
paranormal.
In
1980
he published
an
article
in Military Review
subtitled
"Beam
Me
Up,
Spock."
Alexander
has
actively promoted
psychic metal
bending
among
government
personnel
using
the
techniques
pioneered
by
Jack
Houck
of
McDonnell
Douglas.
Alexander
is
a
former
president
of
the
International
Association
for
l 1
! 31
Death
Studies,
and
he worked
with
Elisabeth
Kubler-Ross.
Alexander
also
served
as
the military
liaison
to
the
National
Research
Council's
panel
evaluating
par a psycho log i cal
applications.
Reportedly,
he had
access
to
classified
government
material
on parapsychology.
Alexander
had
a
year
career
in
the
Army,
including
a
stint
as
director
of
the Advanced
Systems
Concept
Office,
U.S.
Army
Laboratory
Command.
Alexander
also
was
chief
of
the
Advanced
Human
Technology
Office
of
the
Intelligence
and
Security
Command
(INSC0M).
His
colleague,
General
Albert
Stubblebine,
was
head
of
INSCOM.
In his MUFON
paper,
Scott
Jones
acknowledged working
on
a
project
for
INSCOM.
