Hangar 1: The UFO Files (2014) s02e10 Episode Script
Captured Aliens
1963, near Santa Rosa, New Mexico.
First responder, Nurse Beana Anne Bean, known to everyone as Beanie, arrives at what she believes is a plane crash.
Beanie and the ambulance driver pull up to the side of the road where two state police officers are waiting for them.
Beanie thinks she's responding to a plane crash.
One of the officers informs her that the crash site is not far off the road.
They found three bodies badly injured, but there's something unusual about them.
Not sure what to expect, Nurse Bean follows the police officer into the field.
At the scene, Beanie sees the wreckage strewn about the field.
Lying nearby are three small bodies badly burnt.
Thinking she's looking at children, Beanie immediately asks, "Where are the parents?" Beanie approaches the bodies to check for vital signs.
As she's examining the bodies, she realizes that these are not children as she initially assumed.
They're small and similar to human bodies, but there's something different about them.
According to Beanie, it's actually the senior officer on the scene that finally voices what they were all starting to wonder.
These bodies and this craft - might be from another world.
- Nurse Bean is shaken but makes a quick decision about what to do next.
Instead of taking them to the morgue, she decides they need to get these bodies back to the hospital for more tests.
The bodies are wheeled into the emergency entrance right into the X-ray room.
The doctor is immediately called.
Meanwhile, Beanie starts taking X-rays of the victims.
Beanie and the doctor start examining the X-rays trying to discover more about these beings.
Suddenly, the military shows up.
An Air Force detail comes in and starts confiscating everything.
They packed up the bodies, the sheets, the X-rays, all of Beanie's and the doctor's notes.
They take all the police reports and the crash scene photos.
Every last scrap of evidence related to this crash site and these three bodies is removed in a flash.
The last thing the Air Force representatives tell her is, "This day never happened.
This is a matter of national security, and you are never to speak of this.
" What kind of wreckage did Nurse Bean come into contact with? And what became of the small, strange beings she recovered? MUFON files reveal numerous cases involving the government seizing alien bodies from UFO crash sites.
Hangar 1 opens its files to investigate the truth behind aliens in captivity, both dead and alive.
The Mutual UFO Network, known as MUFON, is an independent organization not bound to any government.
They investigate reports of UFO sightings from around the world.
Over the past five decades, they have collected more than 70,000 files stored at a secure location known as Hangar 1.
Now MUFON is granting access to their vast archive.
These are the files of Hangar 1.
Hangar 1 files reveal what Nurse Bean witnessed on the day of the crash but remained silent about it for years.
When you see these events, they shake everything you've ever been taught.
You know, everything that is a foundation of what you believe is suddenly challenged.
To unravel the mystery of where the bodies have been hidden, investigators turn to the fils of one of the best known UFO researchers, - Leonard Stringfield.
- Leonard Stringfield is one of the most important UFO researchers we've ever had.
He was a long-time researcher going back to the 1950s who had interviewed many, many individuals over the years.
His work is considered groundbreaking for shedding light on both the number of UFO crashes that have occurred, as well as the government's involvement with them.
One incredible story from Stringfield's files comes from a firsthand witness who inventoried UFO crash debris at one of America's most prominent military bases.
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Foreign Material Division, 1955.
During the 1940s and '50s, a woman named Norma Gardner works in the Foreign Materials Division at Wright-Patterson.
She has a very high-security clearance, and in 1955 she is tasked with cataloging all of the incoming UFO material.
Over the course of the year, Norma Gardner catalogs approximately 1,000 different items from UFO crashes.
She photographs and tags each one.
And one day, while on duty, she witnesses a cart being moved from one room to another.
And on that cart were dead alien bodies.
She notes that the aliens were suspended in some sort of chemicals to keep them preserved.
They appear to be between four and five feet tall and had generally human features, but their heads are large compared to a human, and their eyes are narrow and slanted.
Although sworn to secrecy, Norma Gardner eventually breaks her silence.
In 1959, she retires from her job at Wright-Pat for health reasons.
She learns that she has cancer and that it's terminal.
It's on her deathbed that she confesses her story.
She claims, "Uncle Sam can't do anything to me once I'm in my grave.
" About six months later, she passed away.
Is Wright-Patterson Air Force Base the final resting place for aliens recovered from crash sites? Or is it merely a receiving station? Rumors suggest the answers reside in a special section of the base.
It was always believed that all the UFOs, the bodies, even aliens, they were all brought to Hangar 18 for analysis.
In fact, the late Senator Barry Goldwater, who had a secret clearance, he tried to get into the UFO material at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
So Barry Goldwater was a United States Senator.
He once ran for president back in 1964, and he was a very good, personal friend of Air Force legend General Curtis LeMay.
One time he asked General LeMay about it.
And as Goldwater said several times, it was the only time in their friendship that LeMay cussed him out and said, "Don't ever ask me about that again.
" Hangar 18 has never really been confirmed.
Most people now, I would say, think that it's probably a symbolic location.
What seems likely, is that UFO evidence is being first brought into a receiving area, but some witnesses may see the crates being unloaded.
Then the bodies are taken and stored in underground chambers below the base.
There's a system of underground tunnels at Wright-Patterson that connect between vast vaults.
These vaults are an excellent location to hide sensitive material.
Is Wright-Patterson Air Force Base really housing alien bodies? Coming up, the Stringfield files reveal shocking testimony about what else may exist deep beneath the secure base.
The colonel tells Martin that there are two live aliens at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
New revelations about aliens in captivity when "Hangar 1" returns.
MUFON investigators are working to determine if the government really is concealing extraterrestrials.
Case files reveal eyewitness testimony that alien remains have been retrieved from UFO crash sites.
Further information suggests these entities may have been taken to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
But what happens to these bodies once they arrive? The files of MUFON investigatr Leonard Stringfield a secrethey're taken underground facility.
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, 1966, deep inside a secure top secret bunker.
Stringfield speaks with a man J.
K.
J.
K.
is a computer missile specialist with top security clearance.
In 1966, he's working with the Nike missile program and stationed out of Wilmington, Ohio, a 45-minute drive from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
J.
K.
finds himself on many occasions at Wright-Patt.
Once of these times, he's escorted to an underground facility on the base that is inaccessible without top level security.
Inside this facility, he sees nine glass cases.
The glass appears to be about an inch thick, and each case is illuminated.
And he can see that inside the cases are nine bodies.
As documented in Stringfield's files, this story is not an isolated one.
Lenny has report after report of eyewitnesses who either worked at Wright-Patterson or who were visiting the base and witnessed some sort of similar evidence.
If this is true, it's incredible.
I mean, it makes you wonder how many aliens the government has actually recovered.
And have they ever come across live aliens? This was really the crux of Stringfield's research.
He really wanted to know what the government knew, not only about recovered dead bodies, the live ones as well.
And this is reflected throughout his files.
August 1980, Leonard Stringfield is contacted by a man claiming to have information about live aliens in military custody.
This man Martin called Stringfield about the conversation that hd wi his friend, an Air Forceolonel.
Evidently, Martin and this colonel would get together on several occasions and speculate about UFOs and aliens.
This conversation was always very casual, but Martin suspected that this man knew m than what he was saying.
The last time the colonel would speak with Martin, the conversation turns to UFOs once more.
The colonel became very serious.
He informs Martin that he's dying of cancer and there's something he wants to get off his chest first.
That's when the colonel tells Martin that there are two le aliens at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
According to Martin, the colonel clms that the Earth's atmosphere is too heavy for them, so they are kept alive by a formula of different gases.
The formula is supplied by tanks and a mask.
He goes on to claim that the government also has their crt inct.
It had malfunctioned and landed somewhere in the Whitewater, Indiana, area in 1969.
He then asks Martin if the colonel ever said why they were here.
Martin says yes.
While they're here for the observation, the colonel said they've taken human specimens for all sorts of purposes.
There are some people who even speculate thathe gernment has a deal with the visitors, that they can abduct some of our people in exchange for giving us technology.
That's a scary thought.
The colonel also mentioned that they seem to have limited communicatiowithumans.
But Martin isn't able to get any more details on the subject.
The colonel dies three weeks after his conversation - with Martin.
- Stringfield's files are full of cases like Martin's, containing bits of information.
But they all lead to the same conclusion: living, breathing aliens have been held at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base - for decades.
- The colonel's story is absolutely incredible, and he acknowledges that aliens are already in communication with some humans.
You have to ask, who is communicating with these aliens and what have we learned? Individuals who have these profound experiences, this telepathic contact with aliens quite literally.
You know, there's this idea that they are chosen.
A man who claimed to be one of the chosen, saying he has intimate knowledge of extraterrestrials, is retired Army Sergeant Clifford Stone.
I know for a fact that the United States Government knows much more than what it's telling the American people about alien life visiting this planet and the technologies that are involved, because I was part of that program.
Stone also claims he was called upon during UFO crash recoveries to interface with the aliens.
Interfacing is where you actually have a communication with our visitors at a crash site.
We wanna get as much information as we could from them.
That's where interfacing came into play.
Coming up, Clifford Stone's first-hand account of interfacing with aliens.
Hangar 1 has opened its files to reveal the government's secret operations with alien beings recovered from UFO crashes.
Eyewitness testimonies taken from the Leonard Stringfield files claimed that extraterrestrial, both dead and alive, may be stored in a secure facility at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
If this is true, what has the milary learned from these beings? Shedding light on the subject is incredible testimony from retired Army Sergeant, Clifford Stone.
Within the 22-1/2 years that I spent in the United States Army, there were those occasions in which I was called upon to be part of an elite unit that went out on recovery of crashed UFOs.
I found myself, from time to time, having to interface or communicate with specific groups that we came in contact with of extraterrestrial life.
Clifford Stone has a unique story.
He actually worked for the military as an interfacer, which means it was his job to telepathically communicate with aliens.
If anyone knows what the military learned about these aliens, - he should.
- But how does one - become an interfacer? - People who do the interfacing, there's no school for that.
They have to find the people thatur visitorslrea chosen to follow throughout their life, and to get them into the military and to recruit them into these specialized progras to be there in case they're needed for the interfacing.
According to Stone, a childhood encounter in 1957 was his first introduction to the military.
We had what was called Kelso's Drugstore there on the corner of 11th Street where we lived.
I went down there, and they had a magazine "UFO Special.
Lo and behold, up behind me steps this Air Force captain, and he says, "Oh, you have an interest in UFOs.
" This would not be the last conversation Stone would have with the Air Force captain - about UFOs and alien contact.
- I'm quite sure those talks that we had was a catalyst that ultimately led to a decision being made that even though I was medically rejected for military service, I'd be permitted to enter - military service.
- Something fascinating about Clifford is that he was never supposed to be in the mary.
The first time he applied for service, he was rejected for medical reasons.
Then, a short time later, he was contacted and told to report for re-evaluation.
Well, this sounds very familiar to me, because once again we have this idea that there is already contact going on.
Why did they know about this guy? Why did they know that he has these abilities? Why did they recruit him when he wasn't even eligible for normal military service? Who turned them on to Clifford Stone? Thathe p tgrgeant Stone claims became almost routine.
Once we secure the area and there's nothing to worry about, the medical unit would come up and render the medical aid to any of our visitors that might be injured.
They were doctors, and they couldn't talk to them.
If they had to ask a question, en ty hato have me, or whoever the interfacer was there, to talk to them.
Was compiledis information - into a special handbook.
- They had a bk of 57 different species that we had thus far identifid as visiting planet Earth.
It was titled along the lines of "Guidelines On Interaction With Our Visitors.
" Has the military actually come into contact with and documented 57 different species of aliens? They had pictures, so they at least had some contact with each and every one of those species that was here.
Went into some of their cultural backgrounds and some of the first aid treatments thawe could render if they had certain injuries.
The idea that there is more than one kind of alien, that's just another one of those things that just makes a little bit more sense.
When I look up in the sky, I see an awful lot of stars up there, pbilities.
n awful lot And the possibilities of what these visitors could teach us seem endless.
When we had various visitors in custody, we referred to them as guests.
But actually, they are How can I put this? Technological prisoners.
They have knowledge of technology beyond us, and we want that knowledge.
This is potentially very dangerous technology that has to be kept under control.
You certainly do not want potential enemies - to get their hands on this.
- The technology is so terrific, horrific, that it can destroy every living thing on this planet.
We were ncerd about that technology falling into the wrong hands.
Also at the same time, acquiring that technology, making that military application of it, so it gave us a better weapon.
And that hasn't gone away.
Sometimes the role of interfacer could take a serious toll on those involved, - including Sergeant Stone.
- The bad thing about being an interfacer is that when this interfacing is taking place, all the emotions that they're feeling, you're feeling.
The emotions that you're feeling, - they're feeling.
- Coming up this strong connection would eventually lead Stone to take drastic measures.
I'll never forget the words, "I am afraid".
Clifford Stone attempts to break an alien out of captivity when "Hangar 1" returns.
1969, Fort Belvoir, Virginia.
Clifford Stone is called in to interface with an alien in custody.
I was picked up by a staff car and I went there.
When I got there, I went on in back to the room where our visitor was at.
When I got back there, you feel what they're feeling.
And our visitor looked down at me, and I looked up at him.
To this day, I'll never forget thrds, "I am afraid".
I tried to say, you know, "We're not going to hurt you.
We want to help you.
" And I went ahead and said, "You know, as long as I'm here, no harm's gonna come to you.
" And he says, "But harm's going to come to you and others in this room.
" Stone learns from the alien that its companions have an extraction plan which could jeopardize the lives of many U.
S.
soldiers at the base.
The alien is actually trying to warn Stone.
I went ahead and said, "If you were outside, would that help?" And he said, "If I was outside, then there was nothing that would harm anyone.
" Hoping to prevent a dangerous confrontation, Stone devises a plan to help free the alien.
I told the colonel that, you know, he's wanting to show me something, but only me, everyone else has to be back because anyone else is gonna be in danger.
So the colonel was hesitant at first, but then he went ahead antold everyone to clear the building.
As soon as everybody was out, E.
T.
and I made a beeline to back door.
Stone and the alien make it out of the building, avoiding the guards all the way - to the fence line.
- I'm cutting the wire just big enough space for him to get out.
And I was teing my hands up doing it.
I kept hearing people in the back hollering "Halt or we'll shoot.
Halt or we'll shoot.
" And I was really waiting to die that night.
I mean, I expected to get shot.
Stone says he manages to cut a hole in the fence, large enough for the alien to slip through.
Where he went out, there was just bright light.
There's no way I can describe it.
It just shined down, then went back up, and he was gone.
The E.
T.
was no longer there.
With the alien safely gone, Stone turns to face the armed guards.
So they took me back in the building, and of course, I have guards watching me.
The colonel came and he said, "Do you know what can happen to you?" And I mean he was very angry and telling me, "You could be court-martialed.
You're in serious trouble.
" To Stone's relief, the colonel does not bring charges against him.
I think that the colonel was well aware of the fact that similar incidences had happened before.
What was the military hoping to learn from this alin before his escape? It was during the time of the Cold War.
We were trying to acquire that technology and make it a part of our technology as quickly and as rapidly as we could.
As humans, we may champion exploration and scientific study.
But from the military standpoint, all we wanna know is, how can we weaponize it? We are very violent species.
I would suspect that there is that kind of concern among the visitors that's basically, Earth is a very dangerous place to visit, and that Earthlings are very dangerous species.
The military's attempts to turn aliens into deadly weapons, when we return.
The files of Hangar 1 have uncovered startling stories that detailed the military's involvement with extraterrestrials.
Many of the stories say that we may be seeking information from aliens in order to build weapons.
And experimenting on alien bodies may have yielded one such discovery.
Summer, 1947.
The United States Government schedules a top secret autopsy on alien bodies found near a UFO crash site.
On the night of July 3rd, 1947, a UFO crashes approximately 20 miles south of the town of Socorro near Oscura Peak.
There were five aliens that were recovered from the site.
And they were kind of human-looking, not quite, about five feet tall, bald heads, no body hair.
There were certain anatomical differences that made it very clear that they were not human.
These bodies are sent to multiple locations for security reasons.
One of these locations is the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
At Wright-Patterson, one body is believed to have been selected for autopsy by two leading scientists.
According to an I.
P.
U.
report, Dr.
Detlev Bronk has been asked to assist in the autopsy of one well-preserved cadaver to be done by Charles Ethan Rea.
Charles Rea is an interesting character.
He was a surgeon and an MD.
He was personally recruited by the head of the Air Force Special Weapons Project.
I found his daughter and talked to his daughter and said, "Do you think your father could have done an autopsy on an alien?" And she said, "Yes, I think he could have.
" Did an alien autopsy actually take place? And if so, was part of the purpose to try and weaponize the alien's unique biology? To answer this question, it's important to look back to certain events that took place at the Socorro crash site.
An investigator is sent to the site.
And he can't get to it because the whole place is surrounded by It's like a cordon of soldiers.
And he learns that there has been an incident there.
A radiobiological incident in which a number of the investigators, three investigators, have gotten very, very sick.
The investigator later learns that several personnel have experienced some form of contamination resulting in the deaths of three technicians.
The technicians that were handling the dead alien bodies died of profuse bleeding of the nose and mouth.
This is reminiscent of Ebola.
This autopsy has two original purposes.
First, general research.
We do this with anything new or unusual we find.
As humans, we want to understand what we're dealing with, so we take it apart.
But in this particular case, the secondary purpose was to discover what could have caused the deaths of the on-site technicians, and could whatever it was be used to against our enemie.
Unfortunately, the report from the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit does not contain the autopsy's findings.
But another document reveals some startling insights.
There is a document that has been discovered called Majestic 12 Project First Annual Report.
This document mentions of discovery of new virus and bacterial agents so lethal that serums derived by genetic research had launched medical science into unheard fields of biolog.
The samples extracted from bodies found in New Mexico have yielded new strains of retrovirus not totally understood but give promise to the ultimate BW weapon.
And by BW, we mean biological warfare.
My God, what does this mean? First of all, it implies that whatever caused the deaths of the on-site technicians might have come from the alien bodies.
But more than that, it suggests that the government may have started using research on alien bodies to create biological weapons.
This just shows that we may start out saying we have purely scientific interest at heart, but ultimately, anything we can turn into a weapon, we will.
How far is the government willing to go to protect its hidden agenda? Coming up, 30 years after Nurse Bean's experience, she threatens to break her silence.
She got a call from someone who wanted to remind her that the government - had a long arm.
- Alien captivity drives secret government intimidation to new heights when we return.
MUFON investigators have been poring through the files of Hanger 1 hoping to find the truth behind the rumors of aliens being held in captivity.
Case files such as Nurse Bean's from Santa Rosa, New Mexico, report to show that the military has confiscated alien remains from UFO crash sites, hiding them away from the public.
And the relentless research of Leonard Stringfield reveals where many of these bodies may have been taken.
Springfield put together a very compelling case of a lot of different witnesses that's very consistent.
It gives a consistent story of bodies being stored at Wright-Patterson.
- So it's a very strong evidenc.
- Everything points back to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
Even if there is nothing there now, if everything has been moved to new locations, you can bet that at one point, this is where it all began.
Wright-Patterson is, so to speak, - where the bodies are buried.
- The files also reveal another consistent pattern, that of government intimidation.
In 1963, Beanie witnesses first-hand what is almost certainly an alien crash site.
When the government confiscatd every possible piece of evidence, they also threatened them about talking, and Beanie felt that threat was that real.
For decades, Nurse Bean tells no one about her experience.
Then in 1995, after over 30 years of silence, Beanie finally opens up and shares her incredible story.
Almost immediately, old threats return.
Not long after she began speaking with MUFON investigators, Beanie got a call from someone who called himself Colonel Stevens.
He had heard that she was speaking with MUFON and wanted to remind her that the government had a long arm.
The same pattern of intimidation is seen throughout the Leonard Stringfield files.
Many of Stringfield's informants came forward only with the assurance of total anonymity.
Or sometimes, like in Norma Gardner's case, when they had nothing left to lose.
Because he was so loyal comg to him with their stories.
Even now, MUFON allows very limited access to the Stringfield files.
It was Len's wish that the identities of his sources remain protected - even after his death.
- The military's point of view is, "We've got to make this go away.
" I wouldn't be surprised if factions of the government were involved with this information.
I mean, this is true, this is not made up.
The military had decided at one point that they would do whatever they could to throw the public off the real track of UFO.
Perhaps the government is protecting the public by maintaining secrets.
Or could a lack of checks and balances regarding experimenting on aliens and exploiting their technoloy ultimately lead to our undoing.
We have technology that people have not seen, that they can't even dream of.
I tell people all the time, within the next century, there won't be any human population on this planet.
Because we will have destroyed ourselves and fallen victim to our very own technology.
While secrets during the Cold War are understandle why does the government insist on hiding what it knows about extraterrestrials to this day? When you think about it, what does anything ever come down to? Power and money.
The government will do whatever it takes to make sure that the balance is in their favor.
But it's not all doom and gloom.
There are rumors that alien technology could be benefiting society today, and alien biology may be as well.
Things like night vision, e all rumored to come from aliens and their technology.
Will we ever truly know what information the military has been hiding regarding UFOs and aliens? Everybody is always saying "Well, we want disclosure, you know?" I don't think there's going to be disclosure.
I don't think there's any plan for it.
And definitely, I don't think it's gonna happen in my lifetime.
Should we be told what going on with UFOs? I'm not sure that we should.
I'm not sure that as a species, we are ready to be told.
To suddenly tell us that we're being visited by someone from somewhere else could upset the applecart in so many ways.
According to the files of Hanger 1, the military has had access to both living and dead aliens, as well as their technology, for decades.
We may never know the true extent of this relationship or the potential wonders and dangers it holds.
But one thing seems clear, aliens have been among us.
And MUFON will continue with search to determine if some of them are still here today, held in captivity.

There's a system of underground tunnels at Wright-Patterson that connect between vast vaults.
These vaults are an excellent location to hide sensitive material.
Is Wright-Patterson Air Force Base really housing alien bodies? Coming up, the Stringfield files reveal shocking testimony about what else may exist deep beneath the secure base.
The colonel tells Martin that there are two live aliens at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
New revelations about aliens in captivity when "Hangar 1" returns.
MUFON investigators are working to determine if the government really is concealing extraterrestrials.
Case files reveal eyewitness testimony that alien remains have been retrieved from UFO crash sites.
Further information suggests these entities may have been taken to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
But what happens to these bodies once they arrive? The files of MUFON investigatr Leonard Stringfield a secrethey're taken underground facility.
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, 1966, deep inside a secure top secret bunker.
Stringfield speaks with a man J.
K.
J.
K.
is a computer missile specialist with top security clearance.
In 1966, he's working with the Nike missile program and stationed out of Wilmington, Ohio, a 45-minute drive from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
J.
K.
finds himself on many occasions at Wright-Patt.
Once of these times, he's escorted to an underground facility on the base that is inaccessible without top level security.
Inside this facility, he sees nine glass cases.
The glass appears to be about an inch thick, and each case is illuminated.
And he can see that inside the cases are nine bodies.
As documented in Stringfield's files, this story is not an isolated one.
Lenny has report after report of eyewitnesses who either worked at Wright-Patterson or who were visiting the base and witnessed some sort of similar evidence.
If this is true, it's incredible.
I mean, it makes you wonder how many aliens the government has actually recovered.
And have they ever come across live aliens? This was really the crux of Stringfield's research.
He really wanted to know what the government knew, not only about recovered dead bodies, the live ones as well.
And this is reflected throughout his files.
August 1980, Leonard Stringfield is contacted by a man claiming to have information about live aliens in military custody.
This man Martin called Stringfield about the conversation that hd wi his friend, an Air Forceolonel.
Evidently, Martin and this colonel would get together on several occasions and speculate about UFOs and aliens.
This conversation was always very casual, but Martin suspected that this man knew m than what he was saying.
The last time the colonel would speak with Martin, the conversation turns to UFOs once more.
The colonel became very serious.
He informs Martin that he's dying of cancer and there's something he wants to get off his chest first.
That's when the colonel tells Martin that there are two le aliens at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
According to Martin, the colonel clms that the Earth's atmosphere is too heavy for them, so they are kept alive by a formula of different gases.
The formula is supplied by tanks and a mask.
He goes on to claim that the government also has their crt inct.
It had malfunctioned and landed somewhere in the Whitewater, Indiana, area in 1969.
He then asks Martin if the colonel ever said why they were here.
Martin says yes.
While they're here for the observation, the colonel said they've taken human specimens for all sorts of purposes.
There are some people who even speculate thathe gernment has a deal with the visitors, that they can abduct some of our people in exchange for giving us technology.
That's a scary thought.
The colonel also mentioned that they seem to have limited communicatiowithumans.
But Martin isn't able to get any more details on the subject.
The colonel dies three weeks after his conversation - with Martin.
- Stringfield's files are full of cases like Martin's, containing bits of information.
But they all lead to the same conclusion: living, breathing aliens have been held at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base - for decades.
- The colonel's story is absolutely incredible, and he acknowledges that aliens are already in communication with some humans.
You have to ask, who is communicating with these aliens and what have we learned? Individuals who have these profound experiences, this telepathic contact with aliens quite literally.
You know, there's this idea that they are chosen.
A man who claimed to be one of the chosen, saying he has intimate knowledge of extraterrestrials, is retired Army Sergeant Clifford Stone.
I know for a fact that the United States Government knows much more than what it's telling the American people about alien life visiting this planet and the technologies that are involved, because I was part of that program.
Stone also claims he was called upon during UFO crash recoveries to interface with the aliens.
Interfacing is where you actually have a communication with our visitors at a crash site.
We wanna get as much information as we could from them.
That's where interfacing came into play.
Coming up, Clifford Stone's first-hand account of interfacing with aliens.
Hangar 1 has opened its files to reveal the government's secret operations with alien beings recovered from UFO crashes.
Eyewitness testimonies taken from the Leonard Stringfield files claimed that extraterrestrial, both dead and alive, may be stored in a secure facility at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
If this is true, what has the milary learned from these beings? Shedding light on the subject is incredible testimony from retired Army Sergeant, Clifford Stone.
Within the 22-1/2 years that I spent in the United States Army, there were those occasions in which I was called upon to be part of an elite unit that went out on recovery of crashed UFOs.
I found myself, from time to time, having to interface or communicate with specific groups that we came in contact with of extraterrestrial life.
Clifford Stone has a unique story.
He actually worked for the military as an interfacer, which means it was his job to telepathically communicate with aliens.
If anyone knows what the military learned about these aliens, - he should.
- But how does one - become an interfacer? - People who do the interfacing, there's no school for that.
They have to find the people thatur visitorslrea chosen to follow throughout their life, and to get them into the military and to recruit them into these specialized progras to be there in case they're needed for the interfacing.
According to Stone, a childhood encounter in 1957 was his first introduction to the military.
We had what was called Kelso's Drugstore there on the corner of 11th Street where we lived.
I went down there, and they had a magazine "UFO Special.
Lo and behold, up behind me steps this Air Force captain, and he says, "Oh, you have an interest in UFOs.
" This would not be the last conversation Stone would have with the Air Force captain - about UFOs and alien contact.
- I'm quite sure those talks that we had was a catalyst that ultimately led to a decision being made that even though I was medically rejected for military service, I'd be permitted to enter - military service.
- Something fascinating about Clifford is that he was never supposed to be in the mary.
The first time he applied for service, he was rejected for medical reasons.
Then, a short time later, he was contacted and told to report for re-evaluation.
Well, this sounds very familiar to me, because once again we have this idea that there is already contact going on.
Why did they know about this guy? Why did they know that he has these abilities? Why did they recruit him when he wasn't even eligible for normal military service? Who turned them on to Clifford Stone? Thathe p tgrgeant Stone claims became almost routine.
Once we secure the area and there's nothing to worry about, the medical unit would come up and render the medical aid to any of our visitors that might be injured.
They were doctors, and they couldn't talk to them.
If they had to ask a question, en ty hato have me, or whoever the interfacer was there, to talk to them.
Was compiledis information - into a special handbook.
- They had a bk of 57 different species that we had thus far identifid as visiting planet Earth.
It was titled along the lines of "Guidelines On Interaction With Our Visitors.
" Has the military actually come into contact with and documented 57 different species of aliens? They had pictures, so they at least had some contact with each and every one of those species that was here.
Went into some of their cultural backgrounds and some of the first aid treatments thawe could render if they had certain injuries.
The idea that there is more than one kind of alien, that's just another one of those things that just makes a little bit more sense.
When I look up in the sky, I see an awful lot of stars up there, pbilities.
n awful lot And the possibilities of what these visitors could teach us seem endless.
When we had various visitors in custody, we referred to them as guests.
But actually, they are How can I put this? Technological prisoners.
They have knowledge of technology beyond us, and we want that knowledge.
This is potentially very dangerous technology that has to be kept under control.
You certainly do not want potential enemies - to get their hands on this.
- The technology is so terrific, horrific, that it can destroy every living thing on this planet.
We were ncerd about that technology falling into the wrong hands.
Also at the same time, acquiring that technology, making that military application of it, so it gave us a better weapon.
And that hasn't gone away.
Sometimes the role of interfacer could take a serious toll on those involved, - including Sergeant Stone.
- The bad thing about being an interfacer is that when this interfacing is taking place, all the emotions that they're feeling, you're feeling.
The emotions that you're feeling, - they're feeling.
- Coming up this strong connection would eventually lead Stone to take drastic measures.
I'll never forget the words, "I am afraid".
Clifford Stone attempts to break an alien out of captivity when "Hangar 1" returns.
1969, Fort Belvoir, Virginia.
Clifford Stone is called in to interface with an alien in custody.
I was picked up by a staff car and I went there.
When I got there, I went on in back to the room where our visitor was at.
When I got back there, you feel what they're feeling.
And our visitor looked down at me, and I looked up at him.
To this day, I'll never forget thrds, "I am afraid".
I tried to say, you know, "We're not going to hurt you.
We want to help you.
" And I went ahead and said, "You know, as long as I'm here, no harm's gonna come to you.
" And he says, "But harm's going to come to you and others in this room.
" Stone learns from the alien that its companions have an extraction plan which could jeopardize the lives of many U.
S.
soldiers at the base.
The alien is actually trying to warn Stone.
I went ahead and said, "If you were outside, would that help?" And he said, "If I was outside, then there was nothing that would harm anyone.
" Hoping to prevent a dangerous confrontation, Stone devises a plan to help free the alien.
I told the colonel that, you know, he's wanting to show me something, but only me, everyone else has to be back because anyone else is gonna be in danger.
So the colonel was hesitant at first, but then he went ahead antold everyone to clear the building.
As soon as everybody was out, E.
T.
and I made a beeline to back door.
Stone and the alien make it out of the building, avoiding the guards all the way - to the fence line.
- I'm cutting the wire just big enough space for him to get out.
And I was teing my hands up doing it.
I kept hearing people in the back hollering "Halt or we'll shoot.
Halt or we'll shoot.
" And I was really waiting to die that night.
I mean, I expected to get shot.
Stone says he manages to cut a hole in the fence, large enough for the alien to slip through.
Where he went out, there was just bright light.
There's no way I can describe it.
It just shined down, then went back up, and he was gone.
The E.
T.
was no longer there.
With the alien safely gone, Stone turns to face the armed guards.
So they took me back in the building, and of course, I have guards watching me.
The colonel came and he said, "Do you know what can happen to you?" And I mean he was very angry and telling me, "You could be court-martialed.
You're in serious trouble.
" To Stone's relief, the colonel does not bring charges against him.
I think that the colonel was well aware of the fact that similar incidences had happened before.
What was the military hoping to learn from this alin before his escape? It was during the time of the Cold War.
We were trying to acquire that technology and make it a part of our technology as quickly and as rapidly as we could.
As humans, we may champion exploration and scientific study.
But from the military standpoint, all we wanna know is, how can we weaponize it? We are very violent species.
I would suspect that there is that kind of concern among the visitors that's basically, Earth is a very dangerous place to visit, and that Earthlings are very dangerous species.
The military's attempts to turn aliens into deadly weapons, when we return.
The files of Hangar 1 have uncovered startling stories that detailed the military's involvement with extraterrestrials.
Many of the stories say that we may be seeking information from aliens in order to build weapons.
And experimenting on alien bodies may have yielded one such discovery.
Summer, 1947.
The United States Government schedules a top secret autopsy on alien bodies found near a UFO crash site.
On the night of July 3rd, 1947, a UFO crashes approximately 20 miles south of the town of Socorro near Oscura Peak.
There were five aliens that were recovered from the site.
And they were kind of human-looking, not quite, about five feet tall, bald heads, no body hair.
There were certain anatomical differences that made it very clear that they were not human.
These bodies are sent to multiple locations for security reasons.
One of these locations is the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
At Wright-Patterson, one body is believed to have been selected for autopsy by two leading scientists.
According to an I.
P.
U.
report, Dr.
Detlev Bronk has been asked to assist in the autopsy of one well-preserved cadaver to be done by Charles Ethan Rea.
Charles Rea is an interesting character.
He was a surgeon and an MD.
He was personally recruited by the head of the Air Force Special Weapons Project.
I found his daughter and talked to his daughter and said, "Do you think your father could have done an autopsy on an alien?" And she said, "Yes, I think he could have.
" Did an alien autopsy actually take place? And if so, was part of the purpose to try and weaponize the alien's unique biology? To answer this question, it's important to look back to certain events that took place at the Socorro crash site.
An investigator is sent to the site.
And he can't get to it because the whole place is surrounded by It's like a cordon of soldiers.
And he learns that there has been an incident there.
A radiobiological incident in which a number of the investigators, three investigators, have gotten very, very sick.
The investigator later learns that several personnel have experienced some form of contamination resulting in the deaths of three technicians.
The technicians that were handling the dead alien bodies died of profuse bleeding of the nose and mouth.
This is reminiscent of Ebola.
This autopsy has two original purposes.
First, general research.
We do this with anything new or unusual we find.
As humans, we want to understand what we're dealing with, so we take it apart.
But in this particular case, the secondary purpose was to discover what could have caused the deaths of the on-site technicians, and could whatever it was be used to against our enemie.
Unfortunately, the report from the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit does not contain the autopsy's findings.
But another document reveals some startling insights.
There is a document that has been discovered called Majestic 12 Project First Annual Report.
This document mentions of discovery of new virus and bacterial agents so lethal that serums derived by genetic research had launched medical science into unheard fields of biolog.
The samples extracted from bodies found in New Mexico have yielded new strains of retrovirus not totally understood but give promise to the ultimate BW weapon.
And by BW, we mean biological warfare.
My God, what does this mean? First of all, it implies that whatever caused the deaths of the on-site technicians might have come from the alien bodies.
But more than that, it suggests that the government may have started using research on alien bodies to create biological weapons.
This just shows that we may start out saying we have purely scientific interest at heart, but ultimately, anything we can turn into a weapon, we will.
How far is the government willing to go to protect its hidden agenda? Coming up, 30 years after Nurse Bean's experience, she threatens to break her silence.
She got a call from someone who wanted to remind her that the government - had a long arm.
- Alien captivity drives secret government intimidation to new heights when we return.
MUFON investigators have been poring through the files of Hanger 1 hoping to find the truth behind the rumors of aliens being held in captivity.
Case files such as Nurse Bean's from Santa Rosa, New Mexico, report to show that the military has confiscated alien remains from UFO crash sites, hiding them away from the public.
And the relentless research of Leonard Stringfield reveals where many of these bodies may have been taken.
Springfield put together a very compelling case of a lot of different witnesses that's very consistent.
It gives a consistent story of bodies being stored at Wright-Patterson.
- So it's a very strong evidenc.
- Everything points back to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
Even if there is nothing there now, if everything has been moved to new locations, you can bet that at one point, this is where it all began.
Wright-Patterson is, so to speak, - where the bodies are buried.
- The files also reveal another consistent pattern, that of government intimidation.
In 1963, Beanie witnesses first-hand what is almost certainly an alien crash site.
When the government confiscatd every possible piece of evidence, they also threatened them about talking, and Beanie felt that threat was that real.
For decades, Nurse Bean tells no one about her experience.
Then in 1995, after over 30 years of silence, Beanie finally opens up and shares her incredible story.
Almost immediately, old threats return.
Not long after she began speaking with MUFON investigators, Beanie got a call from someone who called himself Colonel Stevens.
He had heard that she was speaking with MUFON and wanted to remind her that the government had a long arm.
The same pattern of intimidation is seen throughout the Leonard Stringfield files.
Many of Stringfield's informants came forward only with the assurance of total anonymity.
Or sometimes, like in Norma Gardner's case, when they had nothing left to lose.
Because he was so loyal comg to him with their stories.
Even now, MUFON allows very limited access to the Stringfield files.
It was Len's wish that the identities of his sources remain protected - even after his death.
- The military's point of view is, "We've got to make this go away.
" I wouldn't be surprised if factions of the government were involved with this information.
I mean, this is true, this is not made up.
The military had decided at one point that they would do whatever they could to throw the public off the real track of UFO.
Perhaps the government is protecting the public by maintaining secrets.
Or could a lack of checks and balances regarding experimenting on aliens and exploiting their technoloy ultimately lead to our undoing.
We have technology that people have not seen, that they can't even dream of.
I tell people all the time, within the next century, there won't be any human population on this planet.
Because we will have destroyed ourselves and fallen victim to our very own technology.
While secrets during the Cold War are understandle why does the government insist on hiding what it knows about extraterrestrials to this day? When you think about it, what does anything ever come down to? Power and money.
The government will do whatever it takes to make sure that the balance is in their favor.
But it's not all doom and gloom.
There are rumors that alien technology could be benefiting society today, and alien biology may be as well.
Things like night vision, e all rumored to come from aliens and their technology.
Will we ever truly know what information the military has been hiding regarding UFOs and aliens? Everybody is always saying "Well, we want disclosure, you know?" I don't think there's going to be disclosure.
I don't think there's any plan for it.
And definitely, I don't think it's gonna happen in my lifetime.
Should we be told what going on with UFOs? I'm not sure that we should.
I'm not sure that as a species, we are ready to be told.
To suddenly tell us that we're being visited by someone from somewhere else could upset the applecart in so many ways.
According to the files of Hanger 1, the military has had access to both living and dead aliens, as well as their technology, for decades.
We may never know the true extent of this relationship or the potential wonders and dangers it holds.
But one thing seems clear, aliens have been among us.
And MUFON will continue with search to determine if some of them are still here today, held in captivity.
