Item 2.25: FOIA Request to CIA re Film Footage of Eisenhower's Inspection of an Alien Spacecraft and Its Deceased Occupants
TO: Ms. Delores M. Nelson

3518 Martha Custis Drive
Alexandria, VA 22302 DATE: March 1, 2009 1. On February 3, 2009, a surrogate UFO-E.T.-coverup whistleblower named "Bob" phoned in to the late-night syndicated radio program Coast-to-Coast AM (hosted by George Noory). "Bob related the circumstances of his acquisition of certain 16-mm film footage showing President Eisenhower and the late aviation pioneer Howard Hughes inspecting the apparent remains of a crash-landed flying saucer and its alien crew. (See my below-quoted transcript of "Bob's" account.) This latest evidence implicating Eisenhower in the federal government's sequestering of hard evidence of UFO-E.T. reality dovetails with earlier leakage to certain UFOlogists of a copy of the so-called Eisenhower Briefing Document from the allegedly CIA-created/managed "Majestic-12" operation that began during the late 1940s. 2. In order to unearth the whole story of Eisenhower's UFO-E.T. connection, I submit this letter as a freedom-of-information request that you send me a copy of all CIA-generated and CIA-received records pertaining to the film footage revealed by "Bob's" account. One or more copies of that footage (and/or references thereto) may be housed in the same compartment as that which contains the radar data and other technical material that certain CIA personnel confiscated from former FAA official John J. Callahan during his investigation of the UFO encounter experienced by a Japanese 747 cargo jet over Alaska on Nov. 17, 1986. (Refer to my FOIA-CIA case No. F-2008-01781, which soon will be litigated in U. S. District Court for the District of Columbia.) I therefore ask that your ensuing records search include that special compartment. 3. Please note that the U. S Freedom of Information Act (as amended by the U. S. OPEN Government Act of 2007) requires your agency to conduct a reasonable search for the sought-for records - and that I, as a representative of the news media (RNM), remain entitled to full waiver of all records-processing fees incident to your fulfillment of this request. As with my most recent FOIA requests to your agency, I refer you to my web log - http://ufoview.posterous.com - for ample evidence of my RNM requester status. Note: I shall construe your acceptance of this request as a formal acknowledgment of my RNM requester status. 4. By snail-mail, I'm sending to you a signed printout of this e-formatted letter.

I have a unique -- unique-- situation to volunteer. I'm in the military, and I monitor satellite cameras. What I've got to tell you is based on UFOs -- uh, very unique situation: I have acquired eighteen canisters -- reel-to-reel film, military film, based in the forties, early fifties. Uh, I inherited it. [Noory: 16-mil, black-and-white?] They're black-and-white; I had a [garbled] on the majority of them. The cans show military insignia like eagles and stuff like that. [Noory: Have you looked at the film yet, Bob?] I have looked at a few of them. Uh, what I've seen so far scares me to death. [Noory: of what? -- give us a quick glimpse.] Uh, we gonna have to talk off the air at some point in time; it's not . . .. [Noory, interrupting: I'm gonna have you give Tom your phone number if that's okay.] What I've seen so far on the ones that I've looked at -- well, back to the first one that I looked at showed President Eisenhower and, uh, the, uh, that eccentric guy, he, uh, that had the airplanes -- what was his name? -- the one who went into seclusion. [Strieber: Oh, Howard Hughes.] Howard Hughes in a warehouse, looking around and, uh, people laying on stretchers (and they weren't from this earth). [Noory: Oh, my gosh; all right, look . . ..] I want to stop there and . . .. [Noory, interrupting: Bob, I'm putting you on hold, we're gonna get your phone number and we will talk at length. Could be fascinating. Whitley, my friend, stay in touch. [Strieber: thank you very much, George, as always . . ..]
