This FBI file section, serial 448 onward of 62-HQ-83894, gathers UFO correspondence from 1966 to 1977. It includes J. Edgar Hoover's reply to Florence C. Dow of Goffstown, New Hampshire, who had asked whether the Amalgamated Flying Saucer Clubs of America was backed by communists. Her enclosed July 1966 issue of the AFSCA journal is also in the file. Later items are a 1977 Air Force UFO fact sheet on the end of Project Blue Book and a White House inquiry, to which the FBI replied that it has no jurisdiction over UFO sightings.

Dear Sir :
On September 17, 1963, Mr. John S . Castles , an FBI agent of the Newport
News, Va. contingent , visited me at my place of employment (Ft . Eustis, Va . )
to interview me as to my interest in the subject of unidentified flying
objects (UFO ' s) . I understand that Mr. Castles prepared a formal report of
that interview.
Since President Nixon recently has expressed his intention to assure that
the privacy and civil liberties of individual citizens receive the protection
they deserve under our fonn of government, it is in the spirit of that assurance
that I respectfully request that you send me a copy of Mr. Castles' report along
with a copy of all other documents in your files pertaining to my activities in
the UFO- research field .
tX-111 Yours sincerely,
./- y(~-;;r -::p::1974
