The Guardians of East Gate

The Guardians of East Gate

THE GUARDIANS OF EAST GATE

When I saw the coverage of the launch of the X-47B, the autonomous drone from a naval aircraft carrier, there were a number of emotions that ran through me. I first marveled at the technology, I was also a bit frightened by it and, of course, I was angry to see that we still are proceeding with the mechanized death known as a drone and that eventually anyone with a Facebook, a joystick and a bag of Cheetos will be able to hack into a drone system and program it to autonomously attack innocent people.
I also remember back before the North Korea scare that I attempted to deliver a show about UFO’s in wartime can be a threat to national security. It was of course met with a bit of derision because of the UFO stigma and how through the year’s unidentified aerial craft are already assumed by lazy minds to be craft that are piloted by aliens.
The enigmatic flying triangle has been seen by many people and while it can easily be seen as something ominous and alien we may be seeing the testing of new aircraft and yet after we spoke with George Knapp and T.D. Barnes whose background and experiences with Area 51 can have us wondering if the designs of these ominous new aircraft are part of some extraterrestrial design.
Reports generally describe flying triangles as enormous, black, hovering or slowly cruising at low altitudes over cities and highways, usually at night and making no attempt to evade detection. These objects are often described as having “running lights,” either bright white lights or pulsing colored lights that appear at each corner of the triangle.
Many witnesses say that the triangles are silent, while others say they hear a low frequency hum or pulsing thumping sound that accompanies the aircraft.
It has always been the aphorism amongst Ufologists that there has been a consistent attempt to suppress any and all information about UFO’s and alien visitation. With all of the leaks and the cover-ups many cases have been debunked, or at least been retold to the point of banality. It has also been suggested that most cases have evolved into the realm of legend because they have happened so long ago and true witnesses are elderly and arguably not as sharp as they used to be.
Some of witnesses have taken to their graves the secrets surrounding such landings.
This leaves the new investigator frustrated because perhaps he cannot relate to historical accounts. Many would much rather study and understand cases that they don’t have to blow the dust off of in order to prove that they indeed happened.


I am sure the well-seasoned UFO enthusiast has heard of an incident that occurred early in the morning of December 26-27, 1980, in the United Kingdom. The case has been called “The Incident at Bentwaters.”

In this article I will try to relate to you what has been documented about the case and not take for granted that you are familiar with it in any way.
After all, when it all came crashing down back in 1980, the world was going through some very uncertain times.
Back then, Saddam Hussein was not an enemy, Ronald Reagan had just become President-elect and John Lennon was shot dead as he and his wife Yoko Ono were returning to their Manhattan apartment.
Obviously, major stories that deserved the most black ink and front-page status.
But the story that could not be told to the people was happening in the U.K.
It was 3 A.M. when two United States Air Force security police saw am aircraft with unusual lights crash just outside the east back gate at RAF Woodbridge. The patrolman radioed in and claimed that a metallic triangular shaped aircraft may have been forced down. A strange glow was emitting from nearby Rendlesham forest. The entire forest it seemed was bathed in an eerie glow of white light.
The object according to the witnesses was about 9-10 feet across and about 6-7 feet high. There seemed to be a pulsing red light on top of the object and banks of icy blue lights underneath. As time passed the farm animals that were near the base were upset as the light was pulsating red and white. According to Sergeant Larry Warren, who was stationed at Bentwaters, It looked like a plane hit and a fire was smoldering in the forest.
The object would maneuver through the tress and then disappear.
At daylight three depressions were found in the area proving that something had landed in the forest near Bentwaters at Woodbridge and the following night the area was tested for Radiation.
The readings of Beta/Gamma radiation were recorded with peak readings near the depressions. There were also high readings in the center of the triangle that was left behind by the UFO.
The readings were shown to be at 0.1 milliroentgens and nearby trees were showing readings of .05 and .07.
This UFO was seen again when night fell.
A red light that appeared to be like a large fireball maneuvered through the trees pulsing and throwing off particles sending five different elliptical objects into the sky. They darted about in the northern sky and changed from red to green and then to blue.
These objects then turned into full circles and remained in the sky for an hour or two. The main object remained to the south and sent out a beam of light into the sky.
On December 26, just after midnight, radar installations had picked up and began tracking a UFO that dropped below radar coverage. The “fallen angel” or “bogey” was heading towards the small town of Ipswich. This was near the sensitive NATO bases that were leased by the RAF and the 81st Tactical Fighter wing. These two bases are known as RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters.
Rendlesham forest surrounds the two bases. When the aircraft came down in the forest, U.S. personnel and civilians had thought that a plane had gone down in the area and security had asked permission to search outside the gate to see what had happened.
USAF Sergeant Larry Warren claimed that when he and other personnel arrived in the woods they could see a strange mist that covered the ground that resembled a soupy ground fog, The fog itself had a luminescent glow to it. Looking into the fog they could see the pulsing red light that eventually pulsed more brightly.
After the red light exploded the triangle could be seen. The main body of the craft was pearl white. The sides of the craft had a chromatic rainbow affect as light reflected from its sides.
USAF Sergeant John Burroughs also witnessed the triangular craft when he was called to investigate. He was the one who accompanied the two security patrolmen in the woods. James Archer was one of the security patrolman who confirmed that the object was a triangular shaped object with three landing legs.
Archer also claimed that he could see what appeared to be the pilots of the aircraft but he claimed that the shapes did not look human. He also hypothesized that the occupants may not have been human. However it needs to be stressed that he didn’t go to the extremes of claiming that they were “aliens.” He thought that they might have been robotic in nature. Perhaps the aircraft was piloted by remote control.
Sergeant Adrain Bustinza who was acting security police commander at the time of the incident claimed that when they arrived to investigate the downed aircraft, the light balls would not turn on and that the jeeps were drained of energy.
The deputy base commander of RAF Woodbridge Lt. Col. Charles Halt documented the event as “Unexplained lights in Rendlesham forest.” British and American authorities had apparently audio taped and videotaped the whole event.


It was reported by security personnel that during the time of the investigation there was an electrical field in the woods. This caused the radio contact with the base virtually impossible. There was an ozone smell and the air was becoming electrically charged as if the men were in a thunderstorm. Their hair began to stand on end and they could feel a tingle on their skin. Others made claims of seeing beings in the cone like aircraft. Some claimed that it was their shadows and that they were making fascinating shapes that were out of synch with their movements. A red light blip would follow the shadows as they moved like a cat and mouse video game.
The shadows continued to move out of phase and each time the men would stop, the shadows would take another step.
British tabloids were the first papers to report this remarkable story. The papers were spinning tales of alien encounters based upon an alleged account by Larry Warren. Larry Warren allegedly claimed that the next thing he remembered was that he awoke in his bunk with a headache with mud caked all the way up to his knees. Warren allegedly claimed that he was tested for exposure to radiation and was forced to sign a security oath.
Warren later supposedly broke his oath and claimed that he and others were shown high quality gun camera films of UFO’s shooting down MIG fighter jets. Warren said that the footage was very clear and showed a classic flying disc. Warren said that there is a point of Missing time where during the investigation in the forest they were ordered to form a circle around the perimeter of the object.
Base commander Col. Gordon Williams then approached the object and a beam of light came down from the ship. Three silver suited beings came down out of the light. They were human looking with large heads and almond shaped eyes, the classic grey.
Col. Williams denies that he was there. Others swear to it. They also say that the USAF personnel assisted the beings in making repairs to their craft.
The whole incident was reported in tabloids as only lasting 30 minutes to an hour. When numerous accounts say that the whole event continued for a nightmarishly long 3-day period.
The only thing that remained was the shadows, the flash of red light and the separating craft. Not to mention the nightmare of meeting strange beings that conveniently didn’t end up on the tape.
All we hear is the sound of men who are confused and frightened. The tape was heavily edited omitting the alleged encounter with the beings.
Whatever happened at the east gate near Rendlesham tends to show some significant coincidences that we here at Ground Zero have covered before in previous articles dealing with the Flying Triangles and their co-existence with magnetic stimulation and biological or radioactive poisoning.
Long before contrails and the associated hysteria there have been other accounts of exotic aircraft with a direct or indirect correlation with the military and subsequent hallucinatory activity, radiation and or biological poisonings to humans and animals.
It was recorded that a civilian was affected by the events near Rendlesham . Gordon Levitt lived near the edge of the forest near the military bases. On December 26th, 1980, he had been out walking with his dog when he suddenly looked up and spotted an object that he described as being like an upturned mushroom with a greenish-white glow. The aircraft was silent and glided towards RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters. The next day Levitt had claimed that his dog remained in its doghouse obviously shocked and looking very ill. It finally died a few days later.
The alleged testimony of Larry Warren also has a correlation with a possible electronic mind control experiment or some sort of toxic encounter with an aircraft of unknown origin, a luminescent cloud that hugged the ground and of course the testimony of what appeared to be an encounter with an alien species, or what appeared to be an alien species.
The account of ozone in the air or perhaps magnetic or electric energy causing hair to stand on end could also be something to pay attention to. There were also reports of Jeeps and several High-powered Light all’s abruptly failing, which suggests a highly charged magnetic field in the area.
There have been studies that have been conducted that claim that when the brain is subject to intense electromagnetic stimulation, one can experience something similar to an abduction encounter, or lost time.
A quote from Larry Warren suggests that whatever was happening his brain was being affected:
Some of the group ran away, others stayed put, like myself. I couldn’t move – I don’t know whether it was shock or if it was outside influence. It was dreamlike… I think time was distorted and perceptions were intentionally affected by this intelligence. There was one reality and in front of you was another. I felt slower on that night. Everything was on half speed and something was wrong – something was out of place.
While the idea of an alien encounter is fun to speculate about, the knowledge of what can be suggested with the use of electronic stimulation begs to be investigated.
The use of EMF and ELF wave frequencies in mind control have been demonstrated and talked about with the revelations of HAARP and experimentation that has been carried out in the Montauk / Camp Hero accounts.
Whatever energy was being discharged from the aircraft it was evident that the levels were borderline dangerous. Enough to cause car batteries to drain and electronic equipment to malfunction.
How can we not conclude that this magnetic energy did not have an effect on the men? Also the lack of audiotape evidence of the encounter points to the proof that the men were exposed to an enormous amount of magnetic energy.
There were other revelations that seemed to unravel demonstrating that something even more significant may have happened to the men. It was later determined that Nuclear weapons were being stored at the facility something that both sides denied.
Halt has appeared on many documentaries dealing with UFO’s and exotic craft and often alludes to the military implications of a strange aircraft pointing beams of light at the alleged weapons storage area at the Woodbridge facility.
We could very clearly see it… I noticed other beams of light coming down from the same object falling on different places on the base. My boss was standing in his front yard in Woodbridge and he could see the beams of light falling down, and the people in the weapons storage area and other places on the base also reported the lights.
Charles Halt discussed the case again after retiring from the USAF with the rank of full colonel. Twenty years later he still wonders what he was a part of, or what was really happening:
I was very skeptical. I found what allegedly had taken place hard to believe, and I was really going to debunk it quite frankly; and as events unfolded I became more and more concerned that there maybe is something to this… I kept telling myself that there had to be some type of explanation for it, but I certainly couldn’t find one and even to this day I can’t explain what happened.
Today, the whole story is somewhat confusing as to what really happened. Even as we develop this investigative report we must confess that the case is still murky and investigators such as Nick Pope, Jenny Randles, and Georgina Bruni are a matter of record.
Skeptics also had claimed that what the men saw was far from exotic and far from supernatural. Ian Ridpath well known British science writer blamed the whole event on drunk soldiers gazing at a beam of light that was cast on the base from Orford Ness Lighthouse some five miles away on the Suffolk coast.
Colonel Halt’s memo clearly shows that the men did encounter something. However there were no aliens in the official memo.
British author and researcher Ralph Noyes, the head of Defense Secretariat 8 for four years and later retired in 1977 with the rank of Under Secretary of State. He wrote regarding this case:
Our worried skeptical colleagues have already had to advance an extraordinary hotch-potch of explanations: space debris, a bright meteor, a police car, drink and drugs, a lighthouse, other lights on the coast, dear old Sirius. Occam, you will remember, urged us to cut away unnecessary complications in our attempts to explain phenomena and to look for the simplest explanation.
The simplest explanation of Halt’s memorandum is that he was reporting – as precisely as wondrous events permit – what he and ‘numerous individuals’ encountered on December 29th and 30th 1980, together with such facts as he had been able to ascertain from his subordinates about the occurrences of December 26th and 27th 1980.
There was also an inquiry as to whether or not the base had witnessed the crash of Russian spy satellite space junk and that the UFO /alien story had been used as a cover.
The tape that Colonel Halt made and the film footage covered several hours of the incident and only 18 minutes of the audiotape exists and the video footage was cloudy at best. The video footage allegedly was flown to West Germany’s Ramstein Air Force base.
There have been many people who have come forward to discredit the accounts and the sanity of these men who we entrust with our Nuclear weapons and our NATO airbases. This strikes a chord of uncertainty in everyone if these men were hallucinating and seeing images of aliens and weird spacecraft.
An yet, Base Commander Williams was later promoted to the rank of General, evidently a reward for his work in the case.
Weird work indeed.


Bentwaters 20 Years Later
By Clyde Lewis

It has been called the "British Roswell" in some circles and yet there are many people who don’t know that one of the most compelling UFO stories happened 20 years ago. United States Air Force Security Police saw an aircraft crash just outside the gates at RAF Woodbridge.

It has always been the aphorism amongst Ufologists that there has been a consistent attempt to suppress any and all information about UFO’s and alien visitation. With all of the leaks and the cover-ups many cases have been debunked, or at least been retold to the point of banality.

"Unexplained Lights" reported by Lt. Col. Charles Halt

The deputy base commander of RAF Woodbridge Lt. Col. Charles Halt documented the event as "Unexplained lights in Rendlesham forest." British and American authorities had apparently audio taped and video taped the whole event.

Here now is a transcript of the audiotape:

Col. Halt: 150 feet or more from the initial, I should say suspected impact point. Have a little difficulty, we can't get the Light all to work. Seems to be some kind of mechanical problem. Going to send it back and get another Light all. Meantime were going to take some readings with the Geiger counter and uh, stick around here a little bit waiting for another Light all to come back in.

Soldier: Let's mark one at a time, that's pod number.

Halt: O.K., were now approaching the area within about 25 or 30 feet. What kind of readings we getting? Anything?

Soldier: Just five clicks.

Halt: Five clicks. Where are the impressions?

Soldier: Here's one.

Halt: Is that all the bigger they are?

Soldier: Well there's one more well defined one over here.

Halt: We're still getting clicks

Soldier: Still getting clicks.

Halt: Can we read that on the scale?

Soldier: Yes Sir, we're now on the 5/10ths scale, and were reading about, uh, the third or fourth increment.

Halt: O.K., we're still comfortably safe here.

Radio: (Light all problems) Still minor readings.

Halt: Let's go to the third one over here.

Soldier: Yes, now I'm getting some residual.

Halt: I can read that, the meter is definitely giving....low pulse. Lets go to the center of the area next and see what kind of reading we get out there. You're reading the clicks, I can't hear the clicks. That about the center Bruce?

Soldier: Yes Sir.

Halt: O.K., lets go to the center. That's the best deflection needle I've seen yet. O.K., can you give me an estimation.

Soldier: We're on the point five scale, and we're getting, we're getting right at, uh, a half of a milliroentgen.

Halt: That's point.

Soldier: I haven't seen it go any higher.

Halt: O.K., we'll go out toward the...

Soldier: Now it's picking up.

Halt: This is out toward the Level One indentation where we first got the strongest reading. It's similar to what we got before.

Soldier: This looks like an area here possibly that could be a blast.

Soldier: It just jumped to 17.

Halt: What?

Soldier: It just jumped to 7 tenths.

Halt: Seven tenths, right there in the center?

Soldier: Uh, huh.

Halt: We found a small blast, what looks like a blasted, or, scruffed up area here. We're getting very positive readings. Lets see, is that near the center?

Soldier: Yes it is.

Halt: Up to seven tenths. Seven units lets call it on the point Five scale. O.K., why don't we do this. Why don't we make a sweep.

Soldier: Here, I got my gloves on now.

Halt: Lets make a sweep out around the whole area,

Halt: about 10 foot out. Make a perimeter run around it, starting right back here at the corner. Back at the same first corner where we came in. Lets go right back here. I want to depend on you to count the clicks.

Soldier: Right.

Halt: O.K. lets...right put the light on it, lets sweep around it. Put it on the ground every once in a while.

Soldier: This looks like an abrasion on the tree.

Halt: O.K., we'll catch that on the way back, lets go around, hit it there.

Soldier: I got an interesting one over here, looks like an abrasion point into the center.

Halt: It is. It may be old though, there's some sap marks or something there. Lets go on back around.

Soldier: They ought to give us an extension on that.

Halt: Yeah, this is an awkward thing to use isn't it. Are we getting anything further?, I'm going to shut this recorder off until we find something.

Soldier: Picking up here.

Halt: Picking up? What are we up to? We're up to 2 3 units of deflection. You're getting in close to one pod.

Soldier: Picking up something here. Picking up.

Halt: O.k., its still not going above 3 or 4 units.

Soldier: Right. It's picking up more though. More frequent.

Halt: Yes, you're staying steady up around 2 to 3...to 4 units now.

Soldier: Get one of these trees that's facing the blast. What we assume is the landing sight. All around an abrasion that's facing in the same direction towards the center.

Halt: That's interesting, lets go this way around the circle. Turn it back down here.

Halt: Let me see that. You know that's kind of funny, that's, your right about the abrasion. I've never seen a tree that's, uh, never seen a pine tree that's been damaged, react that fast.

Soldier: I have a bottle to put that in.

Halt: Yeah, you have a sample bottle?

Soldier: Yes Sir.

Halt: Yeah, put this stuff in.

Soldier: You notice their all the same color.

Halt: O.K., from now on lets, lets, lets identify that as point number one. That stake there. So you all know where it is if we have to sketch it. You got that side Nevells?

Soldier: Yes Sir.

Halt: O.K., closest to the Woodbridge Base.

Soldier: That will be point one.

Halt: Be Point one. Lets go clockwise from there.

Soldier: Point Two.

Halt: Point Two, so this tree is between point two and point three.

Radio:(Two other personnel requesting Halts location)

Halt: Tell them negative at this time. We'll tell them when they can come out here. Don't want them out here right now. O.K., the sample, your gonna want this sample number one.

Soldier: Yes Sir.

Halt: Have them cut it off and include some of that sap and all, is between indentation two and three on a pine tree about, uh five feet away, about 3 and a half feet off the ground. There's a round abrasion on the tree about, uh, 3 and a half, or four inches in diameter. It looks like it might be old, but, uh...

Halt: Strange, there's a crystalline pine sap that's come out that fast. You say there's other trees here that are damaged with similar things?

Soldier: Yes, over towards the landing sight.

Halt: O.K., why don't you take a picture of that, and remember your picture. Hey, you ought to be writing this down. Well, it's going to be on the tape.

Soldier: You got a tape measure with you?

Halt: This is the picture, your first picture will at the first tree. The one between, uh, mark 2 and 3. Meantime, I'm going to look a couple of these trees over here.

Halt: Are you getting any readings on the trees your taking samples from?, on the side facing the suspected landing sight?

Soldier: 4 clicks, max.

Halt: Up to 4. Interesting. That's right where you're taking the sample now.

Soldier: Four.

Halt: That's the strongest point on the tree?

Soldier: Yes Sir.

Soldier: If you come up to the back, there's no clicks whatsoever.

Halt: No clicks at all on the back, it's all on the, the side facing the...interesting. All the tissues look like something twisted it, as it sat down on them. Looks like someone took something and sat it down and twisted it from side to side.

Soldier: Uh, huh.

Halt: Very strange. We're up at the same tree we took the sample off with this, what do you call it, star scope?

Soldier: Uh, huh.

Halt: Getting a definite heat reflection off the tree, about three to four feet off the ground.

Soldier: Yes. At the same spot.

Halt: Same place as the spot is, we're getting a heat.

Soldier: On the spot on the tree directly behind us, I picked up the same thing, the one off to your right.

Halt: Three trees in the area, immediately adjacent to the sight, within ten feet of the suspected landing sight, we're picking up heat reflection off the trees. What's that again?

Soldier: Well, shine the light on it again Bob.

Halt: You having trouble? O.K., turn the light on.

Soldier: When you turn the light on, you'll notice the white.

Halt: Hey!

Halt: You're right there's a white streak on the tree.

Soldier: Yeah, indicates, uh...

Halt: Let me turn around and look at this tree over here now, just a second. Why don't you direct it towards this tree. I can see it. O.K., now give me a little side lighting so I can climb the tree. O.K., uh, I lost the tree. O.K., stop, stop. Light on. Hey, this is eerie. This is strange, here, someone want to look at the spots on the ground. O.K., lets step back and not walk all over it. Come back here and somebody put a beam on'em. We're going to have to come back 10 or 15 feet. O.K., lights off. Yeah. O.K., that's what we'll call spot number 3. Lets go to the back part and get spot number one. Spot number one, here's spot number one right here. Spot number one right here. Need some light? There it is right there. Focused? O.K., look around spot number on through the Starlight scope.

Soldier: Picking up a slight increase in light as I go over it.

Halt: Slight increase in light at spot number one. Lets go look at spot number two.

Halt: Spot number two's right over here. Right here, see it? O.K., get focused on it, tell me when. O.K., lights on, lets see what we get on it.

Soldier: Slight increase.

Halt: Just a slight increase?

Soldier: I'll try to center it.

Halt: It's slightly off centered, it's right there. Better get your reading on it right there.

Soldier: O.K.

Halt: Tell me when your ready.

Soldier: Ready.

Halt: O.K., lights on. This is the center spot we're looking at now, or almost the center.

Soldier: Slight increase.

Halt: Slight increase there. This is slightly off centered toward the, uh, one two side. It's some type of abrasion or something in the ground where the pine needles are all pushed back and we get a high reading about, uh, deflection of two to three, maybe four, depending on the perimeter.

Soldier: Yes, you say there's a positive after effect?

Soldier: Yes, there is definitely...that's on the center spot.

Soldier: There is an after effect.

Soldier: What’s that mean?

Soldier: Means that when the lights are turned off, once we are focused in and allow time for the eyes to adjust, we are getting an indication of a heat source coming out of that center spot. Which will show up on...

Soldier: Heat or some form of energy, hardly heated at this stage of the game.

Halt: Looking directly overhead, one can see an opening in the trees, plus some freshly broken pine branches on the ground underneath. Looks like some of them came off about 15 to 20 feet up. Some small branches, about an inch or less in diameter.

Halt: It's 0148, we're hearing very strange noises out of the Farmer's barnyard animals. There very, very active making awful lot of noise. You just saw a light? Where?

Soldier: Yeah

Halt: Wait a minute now, slow down, where?

Soldier: Right up in this position here, straight ahead, in between the tree...there it is again! Watch. Straight ahead off the flash back there Sir. There it is.

Halt: Yeah, I see it too. What is it?

Soldier: We don't know Sir.

Halt: Yeah, it's a strange small red light, looks to be maybe a quarter to a half mile, maybe further out. I'm going to switch off for awhile.

Halt: The light is gone now, it was approximately 120 degrees, is it back again?

Soldier: Yes Sir.

Halt: Well douse the flashlights then. Lets go out to the edge of the clearing so I can get a better look at it. See if you can get the Star scope on it. The light's still there and all the barnyard animals have gotten quiet now. Yeah, we're heading about 110 or 120 degrees from the sight, I'm through to the clearing now, still getting a reading on the meter. About two clicks. Just counted 3 to 4 clicks, getting stronger.

Soldier: Now it's stopped. Now it's coming up, hold on, there we go. About 4 foot off the ground with a compass heading of 110 degrees.

Halt: Turn the meter off, now say that again. About 4 feet off the ground, about 110 degrees, getting a reading of about 4 clicks?

Soldier: Yes Sir. Now its died.

Halt: Now it’s died. I think it's something other than the ground. I think its something that, something very weird.

Soldier: How about the tree right over...

Halt: We just (unintelligible ) the first night (unintelligible) we've seen. We're about 150 or 200 yards from the sight. The woods are just deadly calm. There is no doubt about it, there's some type of strange flashing red light ahead.

Soldier: There, it's yellow.

Halt: I saw a yellow tinge in it too. Weird, it, it appears that he may be moving it this way? It's brighter than it has been.

Soldier: Yellow.

Halt: It's coming this way!, it's definitely coming this way. Pieces of it are shooting off. There is no doubt about it, this is...weird. It is definitely...

Soldier: Two lights, one light to the right, one light to the left.

Halt: O.K., keep the flashlights off. There's something very, very strange. Keep the headset on, see if it gets any stronger. O.K., give us a rundown.

Soldier: Notation that this is on a Beta reading too.

Halt: It's on a Beta reading, O.K.

Soldier: But it still has been removed.

Halt: O.K.

Halt: Pieces are falling off it again.

Soldier: And it just moved to the right.

Halt: Yeah!

Soldier: Just off to the right.

Halt: Strange...Why did it go left?

Halt: Lets, lets approach to the edge of the woods up there, O.K.? You wanna do without lights? Lets do it carefully, come on.

Halt: O.K., we're looking at the thing, we're probably about 2 to 300 yards away, it looks like an eye winking at you. It's still moving from side to side, and when you put the stars cope on it, it, it sort of has a hollow center, a, a, dark center. It's, It's, you know, like the pupil of an eye looking at you, winking. And the flash is so bright to the star scope that, a, it almost burns your eye.

Halt: We passed the Farmer's house and crossed into the next field, and now we have multiple sightings, of up to 5 lights with a similar shape and all. But they seem to be steady now, rather than a pulsating or glow with a red flash.

Halt: We just crossed the creek.

Soldier: Here we go, strong.

Halt: And, uh, we're getting what kind of readings now?

Soldier: Three clicks.

Halt: Three good clicks on the meter and we're seeing strange lights in the sky.

Halt: At 0244 we're at the far side of the Farmer's, second Farmer's field. And made sighting again, about 110 degrees. This looks like it's clear out to the coast, it's right on the horizon. Moves about a bit, and flashes from time to time. Still steady or (lost) encounter. Also after negative readings in this other field, we're picking up, a, slight readings, a, 4 or 5 clicks now, on the meter.

Halt: 0305, we see strange strobe like flashes to the, rather sporadic but there's definitely something, some kind of phenomena.

Halt: 0305, at about 10 degrees horizon, directly North, we've got two strange objects, uh, half-moon shaped, dancing about colored lights on them. At, uh, what I would guess to be about 5 to 10 miles out, maybe less. The half-moons are now turning full circles. It's as though there was an eclipse or something there for a minute or two.

Halt:0315, now we've got an object about 10 degrees directly South. 10 degrees off the horizon. And the ones to the North are moving. One's moving away from us.

Soldier: They're moving out fast!

Soldier: This one on the right is heading away too!

Halt: And they're both heading North. Here he comes from the South, he's heading toward us now. Now we're observing what appears to be a beam coming down to the ground. This is unreal.

Halt: 330, or 0330 and the objects are still in the sky although the one that's South looks like it's losing a little bit of altitude. We're turning around, heading back towards the base. The object to the, the object to the South is still beaming down lights to the ground.

Halt: 0400 hours, one object still hovering over Woodbridge Base at about 5 to 10 degrees off the horizon, still moving erratic, and similar lights, and beaming down as earlier.


Strange Sensations and Possible Hallucinations

It was reported by security personelle that during the time of the investigation there was an electrical field in the woods. This caused the radio contact with the base virtually impossible. There was an ozone smell and the air was becoming electrically charged as if the men were in a Thunderstorm. Their hair began to stand on end and they could feel a tingle on their skin.

Others made claims of seeing beings in the cone like aircraft. Some claimed that it was their shadows and that they were making fascinating shapes that were out of synch with their movements. A red light blip would follow the shadows as they moved like a cat and mouse video game.

The shadows continued to move out of phase and each time the men would stop, the shadows would take another step.

The Last Thing Larry Warren Remembers

British Tabloids were the first papers to report this remarkable story. The papers were spinning tales of alien encounters based upon an alleged account by Larry Warren. Larry Warren allegedly claimed that the next thing he remembered was that he awoke in his bunk with a headache with mud caked all the way up to his knees. Warren allegedly claimed that he was tested for exposure to radiation and was forced to sign a security oath.

Warren later supposedly broke his oath and claimed that he and others were shown high quality gun camera films of UFO’s shooting down MIG fighter jets. Warren said that the footage was very clear and showed a classic flying disc. Warren said that there is a point of Missing time where during the investigation in the forest they were ordered to form a circle around the perimeter of the object.

Base commander Col. Gordon Williams then approached the object and a beam of light came down from the ship. Three silver suited beings came down out of the light. They were human looking with large heads and almond shaped eyes, the classic grey.

Col. Williams denies that he was there. Others swear to it. They also say that the USAF personelle assisted the beings in making repairs to their craft.

The whole incident was reported in tabloids as only lasting 30 minutes to an hour. When numerous accounts say that the whole event continued for a nightmarishly long 3-day period.

The only thing that remained was the shadows, the flash of red light and the separating craft. Not to mention the nightmare of meeting strange beings that conveniently didn’t end up on the tape.

All we hear is the sound of men who are confused and frightened. The tape was heavily edited omitting the alleged encounter with the beings.

Lt. Col. Charles I. Halt, USAF Files His Report



Department of the Air Force
Headquarter 81st Combat Support Group (USAFE)
APO NEW YORK DY735
Subject: Unexplained Lights
To: RAF/CC
13 Jan 81
Reply to Attn of: CD

1. Early in the morning of 27 Dec 80 (approximately 0300L), two USAF security police patrolmen saw unusual lights outside the back gate at RAF Woodbridge. Thinking an aircraft might have crashed or been forced down, they called for permission to go outside the gate to investigate. The on-duty flight chief responded and allowed three patrolmen to proceed on foot. The individuals reported seeing a strange glowing object in the forest. The Object was described as being metalic (sic) in appearance and triangular in shape, approximately two and three meters across the base and approximately two meters high. It illuminated the entire forest with a white light. The object itself had a pulsing red light on top and a bank(s) of blue lights underneath. the object was hovering or on legs. As the patrolmen approached the object, it maneuvered though the trees and disappeared. At this time the animals on a nearby farm went into a frenzy. The object was briefly sighted approximately an hour later near the back gate.

2. The next day, three depressions 1 1/2" deep and 7" in diameter were found where the object had been sighted on the ground. The following night (29 Dec 80) the area was checked for radiation. Beta/gamma readings of 0.1 milliroentgens were recorded with peak readings in the three depressions and near the center of the triangle formed by the depressions. A nearby tree had moderate (.05 - .07) readings on the side of the tree toward the depressions.

3. Later in the night a red sun-like light was seen though the trees. It moved about and pulsed. At one point it appeared to throw off glowing particles and then broke into five separate white objects and then disappeared. Immediately thereafter, three star-like objects were noticed in the sky, two objects to the north and one to the south, all of which were about 10 degrees off the horizon. The objects moved rapidly in sharp angular movements and displayed red, green and blue lights. The objects to the north appeared to be elliptical through an 8-12 power lens. They then turned to full circles. The objects to the north remained in the sky for an hour or more. The object to the south was visible for two or three hours and beamed down a stream of light from time to time. Numerous individuals, including the undersigned, witnessed the activities in paragraphs 2 and 3.

Ground Zero Speculation on Mind Control and Biochemical Exposure

Whatever happened at the east gate near Rendlesham tends to show some significant coincidences that we here at Ground zero have covered before in previous articles dealing with the Flying Triangles and their co-existence with magnetic stimulation and biological or radioactive poisoning.

Long before contrails and the associated hysteria there have been other accounts of exotic aircraft with a direct or indirect correlation with the military and subsequent hallucinatory activity , radiation and or biological poisonings to humans and animals.

It was recorded that a civilian was affected by the events near Rendlesham . Gordon Levitt lived near the edge of the forest near the Military bases. On December 26th, 1980, he had been out walking with his dog when he suddenly looked up and spotted an object that he described as being like an upturned mushroom with a greenish-white glow. The aircraft was silent and glided towards RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters. The next day Levitt had claimed that his dog remained in its doghouse obviously shocked and looking very ill. It finally died a few days later.

The alleged testimony of Larry Warren also has a correlation with a possible electronic mind control experiment or some sort of toxic encounter with an aircraft of unknown origin, a luminescent cloud that hugged the ground and of course the testimony of what appeared to be an encounter with an alien species, or what appeared to be an alien species.

The account of Ozone in the air or perhaps magnetic or electric energy causing hair to stand on end could also be something to pay attention to. There were also reports of Jeeps and several High-powered Light all's abruptly failing, which suggests a highly charged magnetic field in the area.

There have been studies that have been conducted that claim that when the brain is subject to intense Electro-magnetic stimulation, one can experience something similar to an abduction encounter, or lost time.

A quote from Larry Warren suggests that what ever was happening his brain was being affected:

"Some of the group ran away, others stayed put, like myself. I couldn't move - I don't know whether it was shock or if it was outside influence. It was dreamlike... I think time was distorted and perceptions were intentionally affected by this intelligence. There was one reality and in front of you was another. I felt slower on that night. Everything was on half speed and something was wrong - something was out of place."

While the idea of an alien encounter is fun to speculate about, the knowledge of what can be suggested with the use of electronic stimulation begs to be investigated.

The use of EMF and ELF wave frequencies in mind control have been demonstrated and talked about with the revelations of HAARP and experimentation that has been carried out in the Montauk, Camp hero accounts.

Whatever energy was being discharged from the aircraft it was evident that the levels were borderline dangerous. Enough to cause car batteries to drain and electronic equipment to malfunction.

How can we not conclude that this magnetic energy did not have an affect on the men? Also the lack of audiotape evidence of the encounter points to the proof that the men were exposed to an enormous amount of magnetic energy.

20 Years Later Opinions Vary As To What Happened

In the opening paragraph of this article we called the Bentwaters, Rendlesham, Woodbridge case the British Roswell. However according to people who have researched the case it is more than that and with apologies to those who feel that it devalues the case Ground Zero believes that the Bentwaters case is a case that needs to be investigated with the alien theories clearly placed on the backburner.

Even Larry Warren has now gone on record saying that the "alien" account was planted in the media to taint the story. There were other revelations that seemed to unravel demonstrating that something even more significant may have happened to the men. It was later determined that Nuclear weapons were being stored at the facility something that both sides denied.

Halt has appeared on many documentaries dealing with UFO’s and exotic craft and often alludes to the military implications of a strange aircraft pointing beams of light at the alleged weapons storage area at the Woodbridge facility.

"We could very clearly see it... I noticed other beams of light coming down from the same object falling on different places on the base. My boss was standing in his front yard in Woodbridge and he could see the beams of light falling down, and the people in the weapons storage area and other places on the base also reported the lights."

Charles Halt discussed the case again after retiring from the USAF with the rank of full colonel. Twenty years later he still wonders what he was a part of, or what was really happening:

"I was very skeptical. I found what allegedly had taken place hard to believe, and I was really going to debunk it quite frankly; and as events unfolded I became more and more concerned that there maybe is something to this... I kept telling myself that there had to be some type of explanation for it, but I certainly couldn't find one and even to this day I can't explain what happened."

Twenty years later the whole story is somewhat confusing as to what really happened. Even as we develop this investigative report we must confess that the case is till murky and investigators such as Nick Pope, Jenny Randles, and Georgina Bruni are now coming forward with all kinds of information that was either D-noticed or covered up.

Skeptics also had claimed that what the men saw was far from exotic and far from supernatural. Ian Ridpath well known British science writer blamed the whole event on drunk soldiers gazing at a beam of light that was cast on the base from Orford Ness Lighthouse some five miles away on the Suffolk coast.

Colonel Halt’s memo clearly shows that the men did encounter something. However there were no aliens in the official memo.

British author and researcher Ralph Noyes the head of Defense Secretariat 8 for four years and later retired in 1977 with the rank of Under Secretary of State. He wrote regarding this case:

"Our worried skeptical colleagues have already had to advance an extraordinary hotch-potch of explanations: space debris, a bright meteor, a police car, drink and drugs, a lighthouse, other lights on the coast, dear old Sirius.

"Occam, you will remember, urged us to cut away unnecessary complications in our attempts to explain phenomena and to look for the simplest explanation.

The simplest explanation of Halt's memorandum is that he was reporting - as precisely as wondrous events permit - what he and 'numerous individuals' encountered on December 29th and 30th 1980, together with such facts as he had been able to ascertain from his subordinates about the occurrences of December 26th and 27th 1980.


There was also an inquiry as to whether or not the base had witnessed the crash of Russian spy satellite space junk and that the UFO /alien story had been used as a cover.

The tape that Colonel Halt made and the film footage covered several hours of the incident and only 18 minutes of the audiotape exists and the video footage was cloudy at best. The video footage allegedly was flown to West Germany’s Ramstein Airforce base.

As with the Roswell case there have been some people who have come forward to discredit the accounts and the sanity of these men who we entrust with our Nuclear weapons and our NATO airbases. This strikes a chord of uncertainty in everyone if these men were hallucinating and seeing images of aliens and weird spacecraft.

Yet Base Commander Williams was later promoted to the rank of General. evidently a reward for his work in the case.

Weird work indeed.

Canadian Police and Government Caught Pirating Movies and TV-Shows

With several movie studios gearing up to sue thousands of ‘pirating’ Internet subscribers in Canada, the local Pirate Party decided to take a look at the downloading habits of the Canadian police and Government. As it turns out, there are plenty of downloaders to be found on the law’s side. However, unlike individual citizens it is doubtful that the guardians of the law will get in trouble for their alleged defiance.
canadaOver the past months we’ve discovered ‘pirates’ in the most unusual places, from the FBI, through major record labels and the U.S. Government to the Vatican.
Inspired by these revelations the Canadian Pirate Party decided to take a look at the downloading habits of their local Government and police, against a backdrop of vigorous recent debate surrounding online piracy in Canada, and the copyright troll phenomenon in particular.
With help from the pirating anti-piracy group Canipre several movie studios are gearing up to sue thousands of Internet subscribers. Interestingly, the Pirate Party’s findings suggest that even the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the Government’s Industry Canada could become potential targets.
“This discovery shows that copyrighted materials have, in fact, been downloaded via the RCMP and Industry Canada networks,” states Pirate Party leader Travis McCrea.
McCrea notes, however, that like most copyright trolls, their evidence is far from rock solid and can’t be linked to individual downloaders.
“However, we cannot be sure who is responsible for downloading the material, or even if it was downloaded by employees, contractors, or a person who was using an open wireless connection. This is why this type of intellectual property enforcement doesn’t work – there is no method of reliably telling who actually engaged in the infringement of copyrighted materials.”
Below are a few “hits” that were found with data provided by BitTorrent tracking outfit Scaneye, starting with the police IP-addresses. The pirated titles are not unusual and the list mostly includes popular TV-shows and movies.

Royal Canadian Mounted Police Pirates
rcmp-pirates
Industry Canada IP-addresses have also been caught pirating movies TV-shows and games, including episodes of The Voice, Duck Dynasty and The Ultimate Fighter.
The IP-addresses that were found are pulled from peer lists which increases the possibility of false positives, which is exactly how many copyright trolls are believed to gather evidence.

Industry Canada Pirates
industry-canada-pirates
In the months to come thousands of Internet subscribers may be dragged to court, with movie studios demanding thousands of dollars in compensation. The Pirate Party Canada speaks out fiercely against these trolling actions.
They point out that despite the crackdowns on individual citizens, the police and the Government can seemingly continue to pirate without repercussions.
The fact that the makers of Game of Thrones and other frequently pirated titles don’t seem to mind, makes it all the more confusing according to the Pirate Party.
“Between the difficulty of targeting individual pirates, the double standard of targeting individuals more harshly than organizations, and the fact that many content creators don’t see piracy as detrimental to their business, it’s clear that something is wrong with the way intellectual property rights are currently enforced,” the Party comments.
“If the goal of copyright enforcers – and the creators they represent – is to increase profits and protect creator rights, shouldn’t there be a better way to accomplish this than by harassing individuals who may or may not bear any responsibility for copyright infringement happening on their IP address?”
For the many future troll victims in Canada, we hope that the judges handling these cases will ask the same questions.

US Suspends Constitution in 'Permanent' World War on Terror!!!

Submitted by SadInAmerica on Fri, 05/17/2013 - http://www.knowthelies.com/node/8964
obama-burning-constitution
Two disturbing developments have occurred in the last couple of days that have gone relatively unnoticed compared to the recent IRS, AP, and Benghazi scandals.  ~ Eric Blair - Video
First, the senate is debating an expansion of the already broad powers of the 2001 Authorization to Use Military Force (AUMF) so the U.S. can essentially engage any area in the world in the war on terror, including America.
Which brings us to the second development: the Pentagon has recently granted itself police powers on American soil.

Assistant Secretary of Defense Michael Sheehan told Congress yesterday that the AUMF authorized the US military to operate on a worldwide battlefield from Boston to Pakistan.
Sheehan emphasized that the Administration is authorized to put boots on the ground wherever the enemy chooses to base themselves, essentially ignoring the declaration of war clause in the US Constitution.

Senator Angus King said this interpretation of the AUMF is a "nullity" to the Constitution because it ignores Congress' role to declare war.  King called it the "most astoundingly disturbing hearing" he's been to in the Senate.


Even ultra-hawk John McCain agreed that the AUMF has gone way beyond its authority.

"This authority ... has grown way out of proportion and is no longer applicable to the conditions that prevailed, that motivated the United States Congress to pass the authorization for the use of military force that we did in 2001," McCain said.

Glenn Greenwald wrote an excellent piece describing how this hearing reveals the not-so-secret plan to make the war on terror a permanent fixture in Western society.

Greenwald writes:
It is hard to resist the conclusion that this war has no purpose other than its own eternal perpetuation. This war is not a means to any end but rather is the end in itself.
Not only is it the end itself, but it is also its own fuel: it is precisely this endless war - justified in the name of stopping the threat of terrorism - that is the single greatest cause of that threat.
A self-perpetuating permanent war against a shadowy undefinable enemy appears to be the future of American foreign policy.  How convenient for the war machine and tyrants who claim surveillance is safety.

But perhaps most disturbing of all of this is the military's authority to police American streets as if it was in civil war. For all those still in denial that America is a militarized police state, this should be the ultimate cure to your delusion.

Jeff Morey of AlterNet writes:
By making a few subtle changes to a regulation in the U.S. Code titled “Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies” the military has quietly granted itself the ability to police the streets without obtaining prior local or state consent, upending a precedent that has been in place for more than two centuries.
The most objectionable aspect of the regulatory change is the inclusion of vague language that permits military intervention in the event of “civil disturbances.”
According to the rule: “Federal military commanders have the authority, in extraordinary emergency circumstances where prior authorization by the President is impossible and duly constituted local authorities are unable to control the situation, to engage temporarily in activities that are necessary to quell large-scale, unexpected civil disturbances.”
A law from 1878 called the Posse Comitatus Act was put in place to prevent the Department of Defense from interfering with local law enforcement.  But now, the DoD claims they've had this authority for over 100 years.

"The authorization has been around over 100 years; it’s not a new authority. It’s been there but it hasn’t been exercised. This is a carryover of domestic policy," said an unnamed defense official who also emphasized that all soldiers take an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies "foreign and domestic" indicating that citizens are a threat to the Constitution.

Yet, the Constitution is a document that polices the government, not the people. In other words, the only people who can be "enemies" of the Constitution are those who took an oath to defend it. Therefore, only government officials can be an enemy the Constitution.

This follows a recent West Point study that sought to define the American people as "domestic enemies" in order to justify soldiers breaking their oath to corral pesky citizens.

The West Point Terrorism Center wrote that "conspiracy theorists" who worry that local law enforcement will be steadily replaced by federally-controlled law enforcement could potentially be a domestic enemy:
Some groups are driven by a strong conviction that the American political system and its proxies were hijacked by external forces interested in promoting a “New World Order,” (NWO) in which the United States will be embedded in the UN or another version of global government.
The NWO will be advanced, they believe, via steady transition of powers from local to federal law-enforcement agencies, i.e., the transformation of local police and law-enforcement agencies into a federally controlled “National Police” agency that will in turn merge with a “Multi-National Peace Keeping Force.”
The latter deployment on US soil will be justified via a domestic campaign implemented by interested parties that will emphasize American society’s deficiencies and US government incompetency.
So, as the US military claims to have the authority to be a "National Police" force, researchers who claim there is an agenda to do just that are now labeled as domestic terrorists?

Does this make any sense? Will oath takers see through these ridiculous interpretations and engage the real domestic enemy to the Constitution? Or will they just follow orders when the time comes to crack down on Americans?

Hidden in Plain Sight... Nazi Engineers, Secret U.S. Military Bases, Elevators To The Subterranean and Submarine Depths (Part 1)

In the preliminary stages of my research in the early 1990s, I had no informed idea of how deep below the surface underground bases could reach. By chance I had gone to hear a public talk by a man I did not know, on a topic that had nothing whatsoever to do with underground bases. ~ Dr. Richard Sauder
(The following is Part 1 of an exclusive underground base series brought to you by The Intel Hub with excerpts from the book Hidden in Plain Sight: Beyond the X-Files, written by acclaimed underground base researcher and author, Dr. Richard Sauder.)
Hidden in Plain Sight: Beyond the X-Files
In the preliminary stages of my research in the early 1990s, I had no informed idea of how deep below the surface underground bases could reach. By chance I had gone to hear a public talk by a man I did not know, on a topic that had nothing whatsoever to do with underground bases.
However, during the talk he unexpectedly made an offhand comment that caused me to think that he knew something about secret underground facilities. A few days later, I telephoned him and asked if I could come by his office to speak with him.
He consented to give me a little of his time, so I went by and asked him some questions, including about a specific location where I believed there was a secret underground base. He verified that there was a base there and told me that it was one mile deep.
At the time, that seemed improbably deep to me. I now understand, however, that it is well within the state of the art of the underground excavation and construction industries to build facilities one mile deep. In fact, facilities can be even deeper than that.
Other information that has since been given to me has raised the question of facilities possibly as deep as 12 to 14 miles. Frankly, I do not know what the technological limits are in the super-secret, black budget realm of compartmentalized programs.
But I can make some fairly well educated deductions based on what I have been told and information gleaned from the open engineering and industrial literature.
At a minimum, my investigation suggests that depths up to three miles are feasible, and that conclusion is based on a careful reading of the open scientific, mining and civil engineering literature.
At one time I considered greater depths than that as unattainable, but no longer. While I don’t know the limitations of the technology in the clandestine realm, based on everything I have heard over the years it must surpass the limits found in the open technical literature.
It could be that with classified improvements in material science and mining engineering that bases can be sited many miles beneath the surface of the land or the seafloor. Frankly, I now surmise that we are dealing with a science-fiction-like reality that has been held back from public knowledge.
In that regard, it is clear to me that there are power structures on this planet that closely interface with, and yet remain separate from, the official power establishment of any nation as publicly presented in the mainstream news media.
The sum total of all the many years of reading and research I have done, coupled with the myriad conversations I have had with an extremely eclectic selection of individuals, even raises the question as to whether some control structures and agencies for this planet may possibly extend off-planet.
But even if that is not the case, we are certainly dealing at the least with trillions of dollars of off-the-books money, very advance technology, an incredible infrastructure of secrecy, thousands and thousands of people who are in the know but say little or nothing about what they know, all of which revolves around projects of tremendous scope and complexity, carried out over a long period of time, and about which there is almost zero public knowledge.
Alex Thomas: “The trillions of dollars off the books, advanced technology, and the infrastructure of secrecy have all been brought about by numerous globalist organizations such as the CFR, the Trilateral Commission, and the Bilderberg Group as well as many other even more secretive groups that are not even known by name. Those involved with underground bases may literally know that they will be immediately killed if they speak out about what they know.” - End

I don’t know how many secret underground bases there are, but they surely do exist, there is no question of that.
In 1987, Lloyd A. Duscha, the then-Deputy Director of Engineering and Construction for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, gave a talk at an engineering conference entitled “Underground Facilities for Defense – Experience and Lessons.” In the first paragraph of his talk he stated that:
After World War II, political and economic factors changed the underground construction picture and caused a renewed interest to “think underground.” As a result of this interest, the Corps of Engineers became involved in the design and construction of some very complex and interesting military projects. [1]
A little further on he said:
Although the conference program indicates the topic to be “Underground Facilities for Defense – Experience and Lessons,” I must deviate a little because several of the most interesting facilities that have been designed and constructed by the Corps are classified. [2]
Subsequently Mr. Duscha went into a discussion of the Corps’ involvement in the 1960s in the construction of the large and elaborate NORAD base buried deep beneath Cheyenne Mountain, in Colorado. And then he said:
As stated earlier, there are other projects of similar scope, which I cannot identify, but which included multiple chambers up to 50 feet wide and 100 feet high using the same excavation procedures mentioned for the NORAD facility. [3]
You will not find a franker public admission of the existence of secret, underground bases than that.
It carries all the more weight coming from Lloyd Duscha, given his high position in the military-industrial complex.
Shepard: “I myself have conducted an interview with the owner of a major private underground base & shelter construction firm. What he told Bob Tuskin and myself off air during a commercial break was absolutely mind-blowing.
He literally admitted that most of his clientele is Illuminati affiliated, including politicians, movie stars, and more. He maintained that client confidentiality was a factor, claiming that half of the business is reinforced homes. Leaving the other 50% up to speculation.
The company has even built 3 massive arks for a doomsday scenario just like you see in the movie 2012. This was covered by CNN.” - End

The Project Paperclip, Nazi Connection
It is not accidental that Lloyd Duscha mentioned the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ increased interest in underground bases and construction in the post-World War II period.
In the closing stages of WW II, the U.S. military overran the Third Reich and confiscated a treasure trove of Nazi technology, engineering facilities and research laboratories.
The American military also apprehended and detained large numbers of Nazi scientists, engineers and technicians, many of whom were brought to the United States under the auspices of the infamous “Project Paperclip” and integrated into American industry, research institutes and into the military and other official agencies.
The cases of such Project Paperclip notables as Wernher von Braun, and other “ex”-Nazis who were put to work building rockets and missiles for the military and NASA, are well known.
The American political and military establishments were very impressed with Nazi V-2 and buzz bomb missile technology, and brought Von Braun and his team to the USA at war’s end to continue and advance the research and design they had done under Hitler’s Third Reich.
The development of the manned space program, satellite technology, deep space probes, intercontinental nuclear missiles and cruise missiles are all fruits of their work.
But Project Paperclip had another aspect which has received almost no publicity. And that aspect had to do with the underground facilities that the American military discovered when they entered the remnants of the Third Reich in the concluding stages of open military hostilities between the Allied and Axis powers in the European theater.
I have two declassified Project Paperclip memoranda in my files that specifically request four men with expertise in underground construction, one of whom is Xaver Dorsch.
Project Paperclip File Xaver Dorsch File
The other men are not known to me, but Xaver Dorsch is. He was the director of the so-called Todt Organization in the closing phase of WW II.
The Todt Organization was originally headed by Fritz Todt, whence the name. Fritz Todt was the designer and creator of the well-known German autobahn system of highways.
The Todt organization served a somewhat analogous function in the Third Reich to that of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or the U.S. Navy Seabees in the present American military system.
In other words, it was a civil engineering agency that supported the operations of the German military, though, unlike the case of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or the U.S. Navy Seabees in the American system, the Todt Organization was not a formal part of the German military structure.
However, it did play a crucial role in the Nazi war effort and constructed many facilities for use by the German military and industry. Some of the underground structures that it built were impressively large and sophisticated.
In 1942 Fritz Todt was killed in an airplane crash and by war’s end control of the agency had effectively passed to Xaver Dorsch. In the closing stages of the war, Hitler specifically tasked Dorsch with developing a series of huge, underground, industrial manufacturing facilities.
Allied bombing raids were shredding German manufacturing and the Nazi command wanted to shift production underground, out of reach of American and British bombs. The collapse of the Third Reich ultimately put an end to those plans.
I remain persuaded, however, that a great deal of what the Allies found when they went into Germany remains classified to the present day, and that includes the full extent of the underground facilities built by the Todt Organization.
Xaver Dorsch was taken prisoner by the American military on 7 May 1945. I have two moderately lengthy documents that he wrote for the Americans, evidently as part of his debriefing by them.4 One was produced in 1946, the other in 1949-1950.
The documents deal with the administrative structure and operational activities of the Todt Organization during the war. I strongly suspect that Dorsch supplied a great deal more information to his American captors during that period that has yet publicly to see the light of day.
Xaver Dorsch may even have worked directly for the American military on the construction of secret, underground bases in the USA, just as he had done for the Nazis during the Third Reich.
It is a fact that he was in American military captivity and was requested specifically by Project Paperclip.
During the course of my research I spoke with an expert who is personally familiar with some of the Nazi underground constructions in Europe and his observation to me was that they were very well made facilities.
One of the best accounts of such facilities that I have found in the open literature is the anecdotal history related by Colonel Robert S. Allen that details what General Patton’s army discovered when it entered Germany in the closing stage of World War II.
Col. Allen revealed that Patton’s forces found four large underground bases in the vicinity of the grim Nazi concentration camp near Ohrdruf, Germany; other underground facilities were reported in nearby towns. Col. Allen provided the following description:
The underground installations were amazing. They were literally subterranean towns. There were four in and around Ohrdruf…. None were natural caverns or mines. All were man-made military installations. The horror camp had provided the labor. An interesting feature of the construction was the absence of any spoil. It had been carefully scattered in hills miles away.
Over 50 feet underground, the installations consisted of two and three stories, several miles in length and extending like the spokes of a wheel. The entire hull structure was of massive, reinforced concrete. Purpose of the installations was to house the High Command after it was bombed out of Berlin. The Ohrdruf installations were to have been used by the Signal Communications Section.
One, near the horror camp, was a huge telephone exchange equipped with the latest and finest apparatus. Signal Corps experts estimated their cost at $10,000,000.
This place also had paneled and carpeted offices, scores of large work and store rooms, tiled bathrooms with both tubs and showers, flush toilets, electrically equipped kitchens, decorated dining rooms and mess halls, giant refrigerators, extensive sleeping quarters, recreation rooms, separate bars for officers and enlisted personnel, a moving-picture theater, and air-conditioning and sewage systems. Begun in 1944, the installations had been completed but never occupied. [5]
The Regenwurmlager in Poland
Another spectacular example of Nazi underground engineering prowess was the subterranean Regenwurmlager complex that still sprawls for many miles deep beneath the countryside of western Poland. Several years ago Paul Stonehill wrote an eye-opening article about this site, replete with color photos, in FATE magazine. [6]
The Regenwurmlager was an obvious Nazi analog on the eastern German border region to the well-known Maginot Line that the French had built in their eastern border region, in that it also, like the Maginot Line, was comprised of many miles of underground tunnels and electric train lines connecting bunkers, fortifications and other critical military facilities.
Amazingly, the full extent of the huge complex is not known, even today. It is not known if either the Poles or the Russians have ever fully explored the many miles of tunnels and underground emplacements.
According to Stonehill, the facility has many secret or hidden entrances, and an underground subway system with an electric train on rails that ran through a tunnel approximately 100 to 165 feet below the surface.
On the surface, there were numerous military fortifications and bunkers crammed with weaponry, connected by secret passages to a sprawling labyrinth of tunnels below ground, said to be 30 miles or more in length.
Stonehill reports that Adolf Hitler is alleged to have visited the Regenwurmlager in 1937, riding in on the underground subway train. [7]
It happens that the Regenwurmlager complex of military bunkers and underground tunnels and subway trains was located in territory that was overrun by Soviet troops in the closing stages of World War II, so the American military may never have examined the facility.
However, I consider it very likely that Xaver Dorsch would have had personal knowledge of this facility, and it is quite likely that he extensively briefed his American captors on the large Regenwurmlager system of underground tunnels and bunkers.
This book cannot provide an exhaustive treatment of Nazi underground facilities, but the examples provided suffice to demonstrate that 65 to 75 years ago, Nazi engineers already had a sophisticated capability to construct elaborate, large facilities underground.
The American military understood this clearly at war’s end, and urgently wanted to bring Nazi experts to the USA to build underground facilities here also.
By the time you finish this book, you should understand that this mission was accomplished.
While we still do not know the full scope of what the Nazis did underground decades ago, we also still do not know the full extent of what the American military, and other agencies and corporations, have built underground right here in the USA, and elsewhere in the world.
What can be said with certainty is that an extensive program of secret underground construction began in earnest in the years following WW II and that program continues in effect to this day.

(In part 2 of this exclusive series we will be discussing known locations of underground bases as well as areas believed to house the bigger, more secretive ones. At the conclusion of this 5 part series we will be conducting a major roundtable discussion on the the topic. Please spread this article and the entire series to your friends and family!)
