Navy whistleblower claims knowledge of UFOs

He claims in his report that he also obtained information from a senior colleague that could shed further light on the mystery of the famous Rendlesham UFO incident which occurred in Suffolk in the U.K. in December 1980. Witnesses reported sighting mysterious lights near RAF Woodbridge, a U.S. Air Force base at the time. Others claimed they saw a triangle-shaped UFO landing.

The Rendlesham incident — often referred to as Britain’s Roswell — has been the subject of controversies and complex conspiracy theories since it happened in 1980.

Roswell is a reference to the alleged UFO crash incident that occurred in 1947 at a ranch near Roswell in New Mexico.

The whistleblower met the senior officer, who had been at Rendlesham during the UFO incident, in 1987.

“He was the one who initially told me about Rendlesham Forest,” the whistleblower said. “He came to our air station in 1987. He had been at a communications station north of London for 11 years.”

The whistleblower could not tell whether the man, who was in his 60s at the time, nearly 30 years ago, is still alive because he lost contact with him after they parted. But, the whistleblower made a statement to MUFON giving details about the Rendlesham incident he obtained from the senior officer. He is reportedly also working with Nick Pope, a well-known UFO researcher who had helped the British ministry of defense investigate major UFO sightings, including the Rendlesham incident.

Pope confirmed to Express that he had contacted the whistleblower.
