a.

I accept that there are strange phenomena to be seen in the

sky, however I believe there to be adequate explanations for them. Experience has shown that most reported sightings can be attributed

to things such as aircraft, meteorological balloons or natural phenomena like ball lightning.

Of course there are many other

equally straightforward explanations. number of cases where a

immediately and on these occasions we are careful to ensure so far as possible that that they are of no Defence

sign~ficance.

satisfied ourselves of this, as you know, we do not attempt any

further investigations.

Clearly some reports remain unexplained but

we have found no evidence that these phenomena represent a threat to national security and therefore cannot justify devoting Defence

resources to their investigation.

Sec(AS)2.

They are passed to the Air Staff who examine them for Air

RAF WOODBRIDGE INCIDENT 27 Dec 80

Col Halt’s report of 13 Jan 81 concerns the sighting of unusual lights outside the back gate at RAF Woodbridge by two

security patrolmen.

Col Halt records what was subsequently reported

to him without comment.

The 3

patrolmen who went into Rendlesham

Forest to investigate what they thought might be a say they saw a

triangular object.

Indeed enquiries made both at the time

and subsequently failed to reveal any radar trace of anything unusual

in the area at the time.

Col Halt also reports on his own investigations at the site of the incident the following day.

Once again he draws no conclusions

from his findings and, significantly, does not recommend further

investigation.

Our own view also was that no additional action was

anything untoward being picked up on radar.

airspace would be heralded by such a display of 1y

announced in this way.


’1:

. Overall, we believe that the fact that Col Halt did not report these occurrences to MOD for aLmost 2 weeks after the event, together with the relatively low key manner in which he handled the matter

(given resources available to him) are indicative of the degree of importance in defence terms which should be attached to the incident.

He himself took all investigative action which was required.

If

members of the public feel that for scientific or other reasons, there should be an attempt to establish the cause of what happened,

that is for them, but I am confident that it is not something in

which the MOD should or need become further involved.

Assuming, as I hope, that the Ministry of Defence does noi ignore the reports reaching it (and we have been told in reply to Parliamentary questions that they amount to some hundreds a year from civilian sources alone), what steps are taken by the Department to investigate them? In par-

ticular:-

’.

i)

Are they dealt with solely ad hoc, using routine stafi channels? or is there some specialist group, either within the Whitehall establishment or elsewhere, whicr is charged with taking an expert view? If so, to whon do they report? And what is their composition? Do they include civilian advisers from outside your Department?

ii) What part is played, if any, by the Flying Complaints Flight at RAF Rudloe Manor? i i i) What part, if any, is played by Air Staff Secretariats 2 8?

e.

How many of the reports of unusual phenomena have been received from Defence establishments, including reports froIT the pilots of military aircraft? What material does your Department have of traces left on military radar or in photographic form either sorties by military aircraft or from ground-based or ship-based facilities?

~om

Can any such material be released either to me or to responsible persons outside your Department for purposes of scientific study?

In troubling you with these questions I am well aware that their subject matter has often been thought easy to ridicule, especially when associated with some of the wilder notions which ar current among the civilian research groups. I am not wedded to any particular theory myself. I do, on the other hand, believe that there is overwhelming evidence for a persistent phenomenon of a highly unusual character. This is, at the least, of considerable scientific interest; and I have not yet heard anything from your Department which convinces me that it is wholly without Defence significance. I would be reassured to know either that it is being adequately gripped as a Defence matter (and, if so, by precisely what means) or that material held by your Department can be release

You may also wish to know that there is some information about UFOs available for public viewing. MOD files were routinely destroyed after 5 years until 1967 when they were generally preserved for The National Archives. A few have survived before 1967 and together with records up to 1977 are now available for public viewing. The National Archives can be contacted at Ruskin Avenue, Richmond, Kew, Surrey TW9 4DU or telephone, 020 8876 3444. The National Archives also have a website giving information about the records they hold and how to access them. This can be found on the internet at: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk. The Ministry of Defence Freedom of Information web site also contains some released information on UFOs. This can be accessed via the internet at: http://www.mod.uk/DefenceInternet/FreedomOflnformationlPublicationScheme.

Ifyou are unhappy with this response or you wish to complain about any aspect ofthe handling of this request, then you should contact me in the first instance. If informal resolution is not possible and you are still dissatisfied then you may apply for an independent internal review by contacting the Director of Information Exploitation, 6th Floor, MOD Main Building, Whitehall, SW1A 2HB (e-mail InfoXD@mod.uk). Please note that any request for an internal review must be made within two calendar months ofthe date in which the attempt to reach informal resolution has come to an end.


_

you remain unhappy following an internal review, you may take your complaint to the Commissioner under the provisions of Section 50 of the Freedom of Information Please note that the Information Commissioner will not investigate the case until the internal review process has been completed.
