Washington Post report supports accounts of military personnel keeping UFO secrets from commanders

Vatic Note: Again, after researching and digging into the Bill Cooper story and posting his "Majestic 12" article, I have moved from neutral to a believer and given the advancements in technology that is being held from the public, (the explanation Bill gave before he was killed (conveniently) as to why its being withheld) made perfect sense. More and more is coming out about how very rigid the military was about keeping this secret and given the patterns of behavior engaged in after the incident such as project Blue Book, and then the discontinuation, made it even more credible. We also have flying technology now that could easily have been done through reverse engineering. So, this issue is still alive, but remember what Bill said which maybe why he was killed, is that the powers that be intent to use this to frighten us about aliens as a global threat to globalize us into that fascist new world order they want so badly. He also suggested these aliens are the "good" guys and they may try to scare us into fighting the good guys who will try to aid us in this mess we are in down here moving toward total tyranny. I have no idea if this is true, but I find if we put out what is being written and then objectively observe the behavior and propoganda, we can tell which it is. It seems to work everytime. I have put the video first so we can tell what the conflict is between the pros and cons of the issue and then read what the Washington Post has exposed, however, keep in mind the Post is a NEOCON owned publication and that has to weight in on any consideration of the facts and truth of the issue. Again, look for independant and credible sources outside the gov and the banker controlled sources including scientists and universities since they are many times funded by the neocons.   We put the video first along with what the video is about.  We changed no words or statements, just rearranged the order in which it was presented.  So, watch the video interview and then read the article about the Wa Post disclosure. Is the "Shadow Government" in total control of this program that the taxpayer funds but does not have oversight by those who work for us???  Reminds me of the 2.7 Trillion missing from the pentagon that disappeared and was reported the day before 9-11 and the investigative team in the navy WERE KILLED and all documents were destroyed in the pentagon AND THEY WERE THE ONLY ONES WORKING IN THAT WING OF THE PENTAGON.

In an interview on Larry King Live, Mitchell confirmed the following account of what occurred with Vice-Admiral Thomas Wilson.   Once Admiral Wilson identified this group, he told the contact person in this super-secret cell: “I want to know about this project.” And he was told, “Sir, you don’t have a need to know. We can’t tell you.” Now, can you imagine being an admiral, J-2, the head of intelligence for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, at the Pentagon, and being told, “We're not going to tell you”? Well, he was shocked and angry.

The Washington Post has begun publishing the results of a two year investigation into the world of Top Secret programs in the U.S. Titled: Top Secret America,  the investigation aims to expose the waste, redundancy and lack of oversight of many of the Top Secret programs created in response to the 911 attacks. More specifically, it states: “The top-secret world the government created in response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, has become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the same work.” One of the findings of the report is that the military chain of command is routinely undermined as personnel are ordered not to reveal their activities to their commanding officers. This supports the claims of whistleblowers who have come forward to reveal cases of military personnel being ordered not to tell commanders about Top Secret programs to which they had been recruited. The programs in question concerned UFO technology and extraterrestrial life, and commanding officers denied access included senior admirals and generals.

This is what the Washington Post report had to say  about the military chain of command being undermined by programs classified Top Secret or higher (these are compartmented Special Access Programs ) that are very selective as to who has access or not:

Such secrecy can undermine the normal chain of command when senior officials use it to cut out rivals or when subordinates are ordered to keep secrets from their commanders.

According to a 22 year veteran of the U.S. Army, he was regularly called away for above Top Secret (i.e., compartmented programs) assignments involving the recovery of UFO crashes or artifacts. Clifford Stone claimed that he was instructed not to reveal anything to his regular army commander about his special training and/or assignments involving UFO technology and extraterrestrial life. Significantly, his military records made no mention of the special training he claims to have received for his classified assignments with “Project Moondust.” Stone claimed that he was initially given training in Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Warfare at Fort MacCallum, Alabama; and then given regular army assignments until called away to perform his UFO crash retrieval duties when required, and without telling anything to his regular military commander. A mysterious ‘Colonel’ was the individual who supervised Stone while performing his covert duties. Stone claims that when required for UFO retrievals he was typically called out for temporary duty (TDY) to serve between three days to a week, but in some international cases these could take longer with one month being the longest. His army service record refers to him only performing clerical duties as a typist; and has no reference to his alleged training for, or assignments with, UFO crash retrieval teams.

Another serviceman who was secretly trained and instructed not to disclose anything to his regular military commander is Dan Sherman. Stone served for 12 years in the US Air Force. Alongside his regular military training as an electronic intelligence (ELINT) analyst, Sherman was secretly trained to be an “intuitive communicator” –someone trained to conduct telepathic communications. The Above Top Secret or compartmented program was called Project Preserve Destiny (PPD). When Sherman was subsequently assigned to the NSA, he worked on a specially designed computer where he could perform both his normal ELINT work, and also work as an intuitive communicator when required with a group of extraterrestrials. The individuals responsible for Sherman’s training and subsequent covert work within the NSA were officers with the rank of Captain who would not operate through the normal chain of military command either within the USAF or within the NSA. The responsible organization appeared to be a parallel system that operated through but was not part of the NSA. He worked on PPD for almost three years.

The problem of personnel being ordered to keep secrets from commanders extends to the highest ranks of the military. Even four star flag generals or admirals can be denied access to programs by subordinates according to the Washington Post  report:

One military officer involved in one such program said he was ordered to sign a document prohibiting him from disclosing it to his four-star commander, with whom he worked closely every day, because the commander was not authorized to know about it. Another senior defense official recalls the day he tried to find out about a program in his budget, only to be rebuffed by a peer. "What do you mean you can't tell me? I pay for the program," he recalled saying in a heated exchange.

This supports an account from a former astronaut, Edgar Mitchell, who claims that in 1997, he witnessed a three star admiral who was head of intelligence for the Joint Chiefs of Staff being rebuffed from learning about a compartment program involving UFOs. (VN:  see video above for his story)
