FBI file: UFO, UFO Part 14

Federal Bureau of Investigation · 141 pages · text by OCR

This FBI file release, Part 14 of the Bureau's UFO file, collects correspondence and memoranda from 1960 to 1968. Much of it concerns Joseph Perry of Grand Blanc, Michigan, whose moon photograph appeared to show a saucer-like object. The FBI passed the slides to Air Force OSI at Selfridge AFB and said repeatedly that it was not investigating. The file also covers a Denver lecture about space people, an anonymous Dallas informant, a NICAP subcommittee, and form replies stating that UFOs fall outside FBI jurisdiction.

Dear Sir,

OFLYING . AUCE

I am a student at Glendale City College in Glendale, California. This semester I'm doing a research paper on U. F. O.'s. I was wondering if you could send me any information you might have regarding the U. F. O. controversy. I would appreciate it very much if you could send me this information before March 20th as I would like to get started as soon as possible. Thank you very much for your time.

Sincerely yours,

P.S. If you can't possibly get the information to me by the 20th, I would appreciate it if it was sent to me as close to that date as possible.
