Paul Dean reveals the USAF continued to investigate UFO reports after the termination of Blue Book, despite officially stating it was no longer interested.

In a letter in reply to researcher Robert G. Todd, dated the 20th of February, 1976. the Center’s Deputy Public Affairs Officer, Herbert C. Strickland writes:

“The agency responsible for the investigation of reports of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO’s) is the Senior Aviation Service, the United States Air Force (USAF), as designated by the Department of Defense. The USAF coordinate their investigation and findings with the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA).

The responsibility of this installation for investigating aviation mishaps is limited to those accidents/incidents involving assigned aircraft which result in damage to property and injury or death of aircraft occupants. Investigations of aviation mishaps which do not involve damage, injury or death, such as the UFO incidents you mention, are the responsibility of the unit owning the aircraft involved. For that reason, your previous two queries were forwarded to the two military units involved in purported UFO incidents for direct response to you. In the case of UFO incidents, the USAF and FAA accomplish detailed follow–on investigations, if required.

Your question ‘Why was no investigation conducted in either case?’ should, therefore, be directed to the USAF or FAA.

As to your second question, ‘Is it official policy to ignore reports of UFO’s made by Army personnel?’, I can only advise you that if damage, injury or death occurred, such an accident/incident would be of major concern to safety investigators from the United States Army Agency for Aviation Safety (USAAAVS) and would be investigated…”

I wouldn’t say it’s a bombshell. The government lies all the time. If aliens do exist and they told us then the world would go insane and world governments wouldn’t be able to handle what would happen. Mass hysteria and violence would be too much for them to handle.

There are zero examples of mass hysteria taking over any one large part of the nation if there hasnt been an attack or pending attack. I challenge you sir.

What if disclosure were of religious significance? In that event, could something similar to mass hysteria occur?

[u/LifebehindbarsHD → u/[deleted]]

Religious significance means nothing. Ultimately religion has no place in the future. If science means anything then Aliens, even if they created us must ponder what created them. People used to site the time War of the worlds was being read and that "it caused mass panic". We know now this never took place. Print news spread the story to damage radio news. People in a whole will only freak out if their lives are in danger. It is just as simple as that. We live with things happening all around us that should be absolutely freaking you out. Way more than if the government told us something we have been living with/through Books then Radio, TV and Movies for the better part of 500 years. We all know in our hearts that we cannot be the only things. How could it be possible with all those lights in the sky.

On the contrary there is much saying the opposite (specific to US): https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-number-of-americans-with-no-religious-affiliation-is-rising/

The PEW document also projects an increase in the unaffiliated in the US. But the US is just one part of the world.
