AI-Generated Summary
This document is a 1983 issue of Flying Saucer Review featuring an interview with Admiral Lord Hill-Norton on government UFO secrecy and various reports on crash/retrieval incidents and sightings in Argentina, Belgium, and China.
This issue of Flying Saucer Review (Volume 28, No. 4, March 1983) serves as a compilation of reports, interviews, and investigative articles regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. The lead feature is a transcript of a BBC television interview with Admiral of the Fleet Lord Hill-Norton, former Chief of the British Defence Staff, who discusses the seriousness with which the Ministry of Defence and other international agencies treat the UFO subject, noting the withholding of information from the public. The issue also features the second part of Leonard H. Stringfield's 'UFO Crash/Retrieval Syndrome' report, which details various alleged crash incidents and the recovery of materials and entities, including accounts from witnesses like Clark McClelland and Bette Shilling. A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to reports from Argentina, including an article by Jorge Eduardo Catoja regarding entities reported inside a shop in San Miguel de Tucumán, and a report by Oscar Adolfo Uriondo on official Argentine Gendarmería reports of UFO activity in the Neuquén province during 1967 and 1968. Other articles include an analysis of a 1957 sighting in Bedfordshire by W. P. Dillon and J. Randles, a report on UFO sightings in China by Anthony Lee, and a summary of a 1951 close encounter in Terrest, Belgium. The magazine also includes a 'Mail Bag' section where readers discuss the implications of UFO research, the 'E.T. Plague' of media conditioning, and the scientific debate surrounding the possibility of extraterrestrial visitation. The publication maintains a critical stance on government secrecy and advocates for the continued study of UAP.
What I do believe is that information has come to the Ministry of Defence — probably over a period of 20 years or even longer — which is not available to the public, and was not available to me while I was in office.
