Memorandum for the Record: Information request solicitation

This memorandum, dated 29 August 1978, was authored by a US Navy officer assigned to the NSA. The document serves as a record of the author's recent activities and interactions regarding UFO-related matters. The author details their attendance at the Mutual UFO Network 1978 UFO Symposium in Dayton, Ohio, where they observed a presentation by a Mr. Stringfield and a Mr. Robert Barry. During this event, Barry displayed two letters that the author immediately suspected were fraudulent. The author subsequently contacted the NSA to report these letters and provided copies for review. The document also recounts a telephone conversation on 27 August 1978 with an individual who claimed to have worked for the NSA. The author clarified that NSA records did not support this claim, noting that the individual had actually served in the ASA from 1963 to 1966. The author expresses concern that this individual might attempt to portray them as an 'inside contact' at the NSA. Throughout the memorandum, the author emphasizes their commitment to maintaining a low profile and their limited ability to provide information on UFOs, noting that their work in COMSEC provides little opportunity to encounter such data. The author concludes by stating their intention to report any further requests for information.
