Description: "While still on active duty in the U.S. Army during the 1980s, Colonel John B. Alexander, Ph.D. created an interagency group to explore the controversial topic of UFOs. Participants came from the Army, Navy, Air Force, CIA, NSA, DIA, and the aerospace industry. All members held Top Secret clearance. And what they discovered was not at all what was expected. UFOs covers the numerous cases they saw, and answers questions like:  ðWhat was really in Hanger 18?  ðDid a UFO really land at Holloman Air Force Base?  ðWhat happened at Roswell?  ðWhat is Majestic 12?  ðWhat is the Aviary?  ðWhat does the government know about UFOs?  ðWhat has happened with disclosure in other countries?  ðHas the US reverse engineered a UFO?  ðWhy don't presidents get access to UFO info? UFOs is at once a complete account of Alexander's findings, and a call to action. There are no conspiracy theories here--only hard facts--but they are merely the beginning. Serious research is needed in order to understand and anticipate the workings of UFOs, and John Alexander is leading the charge"--Provided by publisher.
