They include a DoD OIG evaluation work paper on a July 2021 interview with Air Force Major David Grusch, the NRO liaison to the UAP Task Force. In the interview he said there was no formal UAP reporting mechanism and called the DNI UAP report analysis not very in-depth. He also proposed a permanent office for strategic anomalies.
