Taped Testimony
Bill Holden (BH) and Interviewer (RS)
(date unknown)
BH: I was Presidential Steward for Kennedy, on Air Force One. I was on
board with him in Europe in 1963, June of '63 when he did the Ich bin ein
Berliner. He was very aware as far as the alien situation because we had ...we
had talked about it because there was an article that came out as far as in
Germany about the abductees , something had happened over in Germany. And
that's where we were, and we were getting ready to fly to Berlin. And then my
question was, very simply put, was do you believe in UFOs and aliens and all
like that. And we were having a light conversation about it and we talked and
come to find out, he was very knowledgable about what was going on. And we
tallked very openly about it. He said, "yes, I have a lot of concern about this and
it's been brought to my attention that we have a large number of aliens that have
been accounted for."
Right. And so that's why I'm saying that that was of concern, you know,
as to what, you know, what was going on. And I said, "why don't we know
anything about it?" I said, "why aren't we doing something about it, why aren't
we visiting with them, why aren't we working with them, why doesn't anybody
know about it?!" And he said, "it's out of my hands". I remember that. I
remember that so distinctly. "It's out of my hands." And I don't know why. What
he said in 1963 was, "I would like to bring it to the public".
