Interesting document. Seems that many CIA investigators knew that many of the UFO sightings in the 50s and 60s were U2 spy planes. It seems that high ranking CIA officials realized too late that the growing public mistrust of the authorities on the issue would reach the heights that it has; misinformation and ridicule didnt work as well as planned. Interesting quote: Circa 1984, a series of documents surfaced which some UFOlogists said proved that President Truman created a top secret committee in 1947, Majestic-12, to secure the recovery of UFO wreckage from Roswell and any other UFO crash sight for scientific study and to examine any alien bodies recovered from such sites. Most if not all of these documents have proved to be fabrications. Yet the controversy persists.[Italics mine.]
