((COL. PHILLIP CORSO/EX-WHITE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE: George i think I've
told you, i wasnt interested in seeing ufos. I was interested in
seeing what was in those ufos.))
ANYONE FAMILIAR WITH UFO LORE WILL RECOGNIZE AT LEAST SOME OF WHAT
PHIL CORSO SAYS---REPORTS OF CRASHED SAUCERS, RECOVERED ALIEN BODIES,
A GOVERNMENT COVERUP. BUT IN 50 YEASRS OF UFO CONTROVERSY, NO ONE OF
HIS RANK OIR STATURE HAS EVER PUBLICLY PROCLAIMED THIS LEVEL OF INSIDE
KNOWLEDGE. CORSO WAS AN INTELLIUGENCE OFFICER INSIDE THE EISENHOWER
WHITE HOUSE, ASSIGNED TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY COUNCIL. HE ALSO SERVED
AS INSPECTOR GENERAL OF THE 7TH ARMY AND COMMANDED THE FIRST NUCLEAR
BATTALION IN GERMANY. HIS CREDENTIALS ARE IMPECCABLE, HIS RECORD
SPOTLESS, BUT DID HE REALLY HANDLE WRECKLAGE FROM A FLYING SAUCER?
((COL. PHILLIP CORSO/EX-WHITE HOUSE INTELLIGENCE: They came from a
flying saucer. How do you know? they were marked in the files as
coming from new mexico, roswell, roswell especially.))
ROSWELL, OF COURSE, IS THE MOST FAMOUS ALLEGED UFO CRASH SITE IN
HISTORY, A STORY WHICH THE AIR FORCE HAS TRIED TO BURY ONCE AND FOR
ALL. CORSO SAYS THAT ARMY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT NOT ONLY HAD PIECES
OF WRECKAGE IN ITS POSSESSION, BUT ALSO REPORTS AND PHOTOS FROM AN
AUTOSPY OF AN ALIEN CADAVER.
((COL. PHILLIP CORSO: I had the reports from walter reed, which was
ours, we financed it...he or it was part of the guidance system,
whatever it is, it was part of the guidance system which is why we
failed with the propulsion system...))
CORSO SAYS THE ARMY KEPT THE MATERIAL AND BODIES SECRET BECAUSE OF
POTENTIAL ENEMIES WITHIN THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, INTEREST WHO MIGHT TAKE
OVER THE PROGRAM, AND DESTROY THE REPUTATIONS OF THOSE INVOLVED. HE
THINKS THE SECRETS ARE STILL BEING KEPT BUT DOESNT KNOW BY WHOM. TWICE
IN THE PAST FEW YEARS, CORSO HAS TESTIFIED BEFORE CONGRESS CONCERNING
SECRET ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE EISENHOWER WHITE HOUSE. HE'S BEEN
THOROUGHLY CHECKED OUT AND HIS INFORMATION CONFIRMED, BUT HIS MOST
SENSATIONAL ALLEGATION IS ONE WHICH AMERICAN INDUSTRY ISNT GOING TO
LIKE. CORSO SAYS THE ARMY SPOON FED RECOVERED ALIEN TECHNOLOGY TO
AMERICAN INDUSTRY, RESULTING IN SOME OF OUR GREATEST TECHNOLOGICAL
ADVANCES.
((COL. PHIL CORSO: Number one was the integrated circuit. number two
was the laser. number three was fiber optics... ))
SUCH SENSATIONAL CLAIMS HAVE INVITED HARSH CRITICISM, BUT CORSO DOESNT
MIND. HE NAMES OTHERS WHO KNEW WHAT HE KNOWS, AND ITS AN EXCLUSIVE
CLUB.
((COL PHIL CORSO: General Marshall, general trudeau, general
macarthur, von braun,. Im in good company iwth those koooks.))T-UFO

>>>COLONEL CORSO HAS WRITTEN A BOOK ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCES. IT'S CALLED
THE DAY AFTER ROSWELL, AND IT HAS ALREADY CLIMBED TO NUMBER 12 ON THE
NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER LIST. HE SAYS HE KEPT QUIET ABOUT THIS
INFORMATION FOR SO MANY YEARS BECAUSE OF AN OATH HE MADE TO HIS
COMMANDING GENERAL ARTHUR TRUDEAU. TRUDUEA DIED A FEW YEARS AGO, AND
THAT'S WHEN CORSO STARTED WRITING. ONE THING FOR SURE, HE IS NOT YOUR
RUN OF THE MILL UFO WITNESS.
