This issue of UFO REVIEW, subtitled 'The World's Only Flying Saucer Newspaper,' delves into various aspects of UFO phenomena, focusing on alleged government cover-ups, crashed UFO incidents, and the possibility of extraterrestrial contact and integration with humanity. The magazine features articles by Timothy Green Beckley, Robert D. Barry, and an interview with world traveler Bill Cox.

Editorial: CRASHED SAUCERS: THE TRUTH

Timothy Green Beckley, the Publisher/Editor, addresses the controversy surrounding claims that the U.S. government possesses wreckage of UFOs and alien bodies. He notes the difficulty in tracking down such stories due to witnesses' reluctance to speak publicly. Beckley highlights the impact of the Freedom of Information Act in making classified documents public, revealing the 'tug-of-war' between government agencies like the CIA, FBI, and military for possession of these strange devices. He criticizes an ex-NICAPer's article in FATE that attempts to discredit crashed saucer stories, particularly regarding the logistics of transporting wreckage. Beckley also introduces Robert Barry's article on surviving aliens, urging investigators to examine all facts before dismissing reports.

SUPRESSED C.I.A. DOCUMENTS PROVE U.S. POSSESSES REMAINS OF U.F.O.'S & ALIEN BEINGS

This article asserts that for over three decades, the U.S. government has kept a secret involving the remains of crashed UFOs and their alien occupants, found in the Southwestern U.S. in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Military units allegedly recovered the wreckage and bodies, which were then stored at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, with Hangar 18 reportedly used for this purpose. Even Senator Barry Goldwater was allegedly turned away when requesting access to the hangar. The article claims that the Freedom of Information Act has allowed civilian researchers to obtain classified CIA, FBI, and State Department documents verifying these claims. It also mentions a 'tug-of-war' between government branches for access to these objects, citing a memo from J. Edgar Hoover and a telegram from Henry Kissinger regarding recovery efforts in South Africa.

UNDER MILITARY GUARD: THE SURVIVING ALIENS

Robert D. Barry, a Researcher/Investigator, discusses the evolution of UFO terminology from 'close encounters' to 'crashed space craft' (CSC) and the subsequent reports of alien bodies. He notes the resistance from 'negativists' who attempt to dismiss these reports. Barry then presents several lesser-known crashed space craft cases:

• Madagascar Episode: A UFO exploded and crashed in Fort Dauphin in 1978. The event was confirmed by the Madagascar Interior Ministry and reported on Radio Madagascar, but not by U.S. media.
• NASA Probes Crash: Foreign press reported NASA's involvement in investigating a crashed UFO near the Bolivian/Argentine border in May 1978. The crash caused an earth tremor, and the area was declared 'off-limits' by the Bolivian government.
• Argentina Jungles: The object from the Bolivian crash was discovered to have crashed just inside Argentina. U.S. Air Force experts, including a personal friend of Barry's, were sent to recover the remains, which were then returned to the United States.

Barry also touches upon the possibility of surviving aliens, suggesting that not all aliens died in crashes.

CRASHED UFO'S & ALIEN BODIES RECOVERED

This section lists various topics covered in booklets and tapes available for purchase, including "Confidential Amazing UFO Information," "Crashed UFOs 1948-1975," "Space Aliens Are Invisible," and "NASA Attempts Contact With UFO Crews." It also mentions interviews with former President Gerald Ford and other notable figures.

PERU

Another foreign news item mentions a UFO crash north of Lima, Peru, during the 1970s, with Peruvian officials recovering the object.

CHINESE INCIDENT

In late 1980, reports emerged of UFO sightings over several Chinese provinces, leading to the formation of a UFO group. In 1973, a downed space craft impacted on Chinese soil, and in 1974, another reportedly crashed in a lake. No beings were found, but indications suggested the craft had been manned.

SECURITY MATTERS

Timothy Green Beckley contacted an unnamed government UFO investigator who explained that while the U.S. cannot control foreign press reporting on UFOs, it can control the influx of such reports into the U.S. by citing 'national security.' For UFO crashes within the U.S., this 'national security' approach is harder to maintain due to the number of incidents over many years and states (Arizona, California, Kansas, Ohio, Pennsylvania). The investigator estimates that 30 to 34 alien cadavers are held in 'deep freeze' at major U.S. military bases.

SOME SURVIVED

Barry contends that given the number of crashed saucer cases and body retrievals, some aliens must have survived. He recounts a spectacular incident in 1962 when a spacecraft crashed in New Mexico after experiencing flight difficulty, possibly due to the area's magnetic faultline. Air Force interceptors followed the UFO, which then lost altitude and crashed. This case involved a series of incidents over seven years, affecting a military base, a university medical research center, and a hospital.

THE HAWAIAN AFFAIR

Barry discusses UFO activity during World War II, known as 'foo-fighters.' He recounts an incident in 1944 where a space craft crashed in Hawaii. The Navy CB unit was involved in retrieving the craft and its surviving aliens. Several aliens were reported alive at the crash site and removed to a waiting ambulance.

CONTACT ATTEMPT

In the New Mexico case, an attempt was made to communicate with a surviving alien, described as 42 inches tall, using a portable tape recorder. The alien spoke an unknown language. The tape was sent to language experts. The alien later died, and both bodies were sent to a university medical hospital. This was not the first government attempt to contact surviving aliens.

SURVIVAL IN LA.

During 1952 and 1953, UFOs were active in the U.S. In Louisiana in 1953, a mysterious craft crashed, and soldiers were involved. Medics removed an alien body, presumed dead, while three surviving aliens were taken away in an ambulance.

Bill Cox Interview: SPACEMEN SHOW US YOUR POWERS

This section features an interview with Bill Cox, a world traveler and author focusing on paranormal research, pyramid energies, and ancient mysteries. Cox was mentored by the late psychic Vern Cameron.

• Paranormal Involvement: Cox's involvement began after experiencing automatic writing, which he believes was a profound personal experience that transformed his energy levels.
• Global Travels: Cox has traveled to five countries, exploring the nature of past civilizations and related findings. He mentions discovering sub-sea pyramids near New Orleans and off the coast of Morocco, and believes a 'pyramid line' circles the globe at 30° North parallel.
• Pyramid Origins: Cox challenges conventional theories about pyramids, suggesting they were not built as tombs but by advanced beings with a technology beyond our understanding. He estimates their construction could date back from ten to five hundred thousand years.
• Pyramid Technology: He believes pyramids were used for energy accumulation, directing spacecraft, and possibly as beacons. He notes that geometric shapes accumulate and conserve energy, creating 'shape waves.'
• Alien Integration: Cox suggests that 'extraterrestrials' are being born on Earth, merging with humans to bring about a 'New Age.' He refers to these as 'Star children' who will become more prominent.
• Personal Experiences: Cox describes experiencing profound energy shifts and sensations after his initial automatic writing experience.
• Pyramid Effects: He shares anecdotes of people experiencing skin rejuvenation, healing of scars, and even cures for dyslexia after using pyramid-treated water or spending time inside pyramids.
• Brazil Encounters: Cox recounts meeting individuals in Brazil with extraordinary abilities, including Thomaz Green Coutinho, who could transmute metal and levitate objects, and Odilon Ferreira, who allegedly hosts the spirit of a space alien and performs 'etheric transplants' (healing).
• Alien Communication: Cox believes that 'spacemen' are trying to bring about a New Age and that some are born into human bodies or 'take over' bodies. He notes that these beings can distort photographic film if they do not wish to be photographed.
• Bermuda Triangle Pyramids: Cox believes the Bermuda Triangle is a 'warp' or 'window' in space used by space people for travel, with other similar 'windows' existing in California and Oregon.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue of UFO REVIEW are the existence of UFOs and extraterrestrial beings, the alleged cover-up of this information by governments, the possibility of alien crashes and survivals, and the connection between ancient civilizations (particularly pyramids) and advanced, possibly extraterrestrial, technology. The editorial stance is one of revealing 'all the data at its disposal' and not withholding evidence, while also being critical of what it perceives as biased or uninformed reporting within the UFO community. The magazine promotes the idea that UFO phenomena are real and that the public deserves to know the truth, even if it challenges conventional understanding.

This issue of UFO REVIEW, dated September 1981 (issue 810911), delves into a variety of unexplained phenomena, including UFO encounters, psychic experiences, and the persistent legends of underground civilizations. The magazine features personal accounts, investigations into controversial events, and explorations of ancient myths.

UFO Encounters and Healings

The issue highlights the experience of Rita, who recounts an encounter aboard a UFO. She describes being taken into a craft where she underwent a medical examination using a light instrument. This experience, she believes, healed her chronic ovary problem, which had previously made it inadvisable for her to have children. Her daughter, Linda, was subsequently born healthy. Rita also describes the telepathic communication with the beings and the luminous interior of the craft. She recalls seeing projections of her own skull, brain, lungs, and heart, and notes the beings' advanced technology, including a device that seemed to control light wavelengths for materialization.

The Dr. Jessup Mystery and the Philadelphia Experiment

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to the controversial death of Dr. Morris K. Jessup, author of "The Case for the UFO." The investigation, led by Ann Genzlinger and Gray Barker, questions the official ruling of suicide. It is suggested that Jessup may have "known too much" about a secret Naval experiment known as the Philadelphia Experiment. This alleged experiment, conducted in 1943 at the Philadelphia Naval Yard, purportedly involved making an entire ship and its crew invisible using Einstein's theories. While the experiment was reportedly a "complete success" in terms of invisibility, the crew suffered greatly, with some becoming insane. The investigation into Jessup's death is amplified by the discovery that no autopsy was performed, and the case file remained open for an unusually long period.

Legends of Underground Worlds

The issue explores the fascinating concept of underground cities and civilizations. It draws upon myths and folklore from various cultures, including Siberian, Mongolian, Indian, Persian, and European traditions. Tales of Agharta, a subterranean realm ruled by a "King of the World," and Shambhala, a hidden city beneath Tibet, are discussed. The article references explorers like Dr. Ferdinand Ossendowski and Nicholas Roerich, who documented these legends. It also touches upon archaeological discoveries of tunnel complexes in Turkey and Hungary, and mentions the possibility of ancient tunnel networks connecting continents. The "Lemurian Civilization" and Rainbow City in the Antarctic are also alluded to.

John Lennon's UFO Sighting

The magazine includes an account of John Lennon's reported UFO sighting in 1974 from his apartment at the Dakota in Manhattan. Lennon described seeing an object hovering over a nearby building, noting its slow speed and the presence of flashing electric light bulbs around its bottom and a non-blinking red light on top. He asserted he was "very straight" at the time of the sighting. His friend also witnessed the object, but attempts to photograph it were unsuccessful. The article notes that Lennon never exploited the sighting for publicity, suggesting its sincerity.

Other Features and Advertisements

Additional content includes a section on "Surviving Aliens" discussing psychic and spiritual leaders' views on end times and potential global catastrophes, and an interview with Bill Cox about "spacemen" and their potential role in human survival. The magazine also features advertisements for UFO-related books, tapes, and services, including "The Roswell Incident" by Charles Berlitz and William L. Moore, and a UFO Investigator's Kit. A listing for the 18th Annual National UFO Conference in Wisconsin is also present.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the pervasive nature of UFO phenomena, the possibility of extraterrestrial contact, and the potential for hidden or advanced civilizations, both terrestrial and extraterrestrial. There is a strong undercurrent of skepticism towards official explanations and a focus on personal testimonies and investigative journalism that challenges conventional narratives. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these subjects, presenting accounts and theories that push the boundaries of accepted reality, encouraging readers to "believe" in the unexplained.
