On the night of March 24, 1967, UFOs appeared over the Malmstrom AFB missile field, with one, large, glowing red object hovering right outside and above the front gate. Within seconds, the missiles began to shut down, going into a so-called “No-go” state. In the event we were to have had a nuclear conflict, the missiles could not be launched. In the launch capsule that night was Deputy Missile Combat Crew Commander Captain Robert Salas. Captain Salas graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy and spent seven years in active duty from 1964 to 1971. He also held positions at Martin Marietta and Rockwell and spent 21 years at the FAA. In the Air Force, he was an air traffic controller and a missile launch officer as well as an engineer on the Titan 3 missiles. He also holds a Master of Science degree in Aerospace Engineering from the Air Force Institute of Technology and a Master of Education from the University of Washington. Since that time he has worked as a safety and reliability engineer for Martin-Marietta Aerospace and Rockwell International on Space Shuttle design proposals. He worked for the Federal Aviation Administration as an aircraft structures certification engineer, an FAA attaché to the U.S. Embassy in Indonesia, and as a mathematics teacher and tutor. In 2005 he published the book Faded Giant with co-author James Klotz [https://www.amazon.com/Faded-Giant-Robert-Salas/dp/1419603418/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1CT33FL7ND8J6&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.z7Eo8ygbRcG-1fhQqZXfWZ392CdtMRjugBHUWD0st6Ber5MNmn0O7chlyjo-ppdk26Tpqo8c0Fav0R38TW2FgcLL6_PKj_uKgDepFMT4QF1-vXQJJOcjZ0hZa708e8nNC64JAZ1HAkTt1i7UpGQUWvC1FtFqc79mi-tcz31sJlOaUrzQDgCVoEmVG0aHI1_EHfHvx6q9xbDHhvTirAzS2zQQDf4cDL8N7WraxzQMil0.87IJyc_hDFqHbnjM4JY6G3hC54g_1JXaU9Z31kzMtIk&dib_tag=se&keywords=robert%2Bsalas&qid=1708976436&sprefix=robert%2Bsalas%2Caps%2C121&sr=8-3] which details his UFO incident while stationed at Malmstrom AFB, Montana in 1967. In 2013, he published Unidentified – The UFO Phenomenon [https://www.amazon.com/Unidentified-Phenomenon-Governments-Conspired-Humanitys/dp/1601633424/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1CT33FL7ND8J6&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.z7Eo8ygbRcG-1fhQqZXfWZ392CdtMRjugBHUWD0st6Ber5MNmn0O7chlyjo-ppdk26Tpqo8c0Fav0R38TW2FgcLL6_PKj_uKgDepFMT4QF1-vXQJJOcjZ0hZa708e8nNC64JAZ1HAkTt1i7UpGQUWvC1FtFqc79mi-tcz31sJlOaUrzQDgCVoEmVG0aHI1_EHfHvx6q9xbDHhvTirAzS2zQQDf4cDL8N7WraxzQMil0.87IJyc_hDFqHbnjM4JY6G3hC54g_1JXaU9Z31kzMtIk&dib_tag=se&keywords=robert%2Bsalas&qid=1708976436&sprefix=robert%2Bsalas%2Caps%2C121&sr=8-1], providing new details on various aspects of the phenomenon. He co-sponsored a press conference at the National Press Club in Washington DC where he and six other ex-military witnesses testified to the reality of the UFO incidents at U.S. nuclear weapons bases. In May 2013, he participated in the Citizen’s Hearing on Disclosure at the National Press Club, Washington DC. On October 19, 2021, he organized a press conference at the National Press Club and spoke along with three other witnesses on UFO incursions at nuclear weapons facilities. Captain Salas has spoken at international UFO conferences in over fifteen countries, including Norway, France, UK, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Bulgaria, South Africa, Costa Rica, Peru, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil.

A discussion with two highly seasoned law enforcement officers about their investigative work as MUFON Field Investigators, and their organization, UAPPD. Marianne Robb is retired after 34 years as a police officer in Arizona. Marianne gained her experience as a patrol officer, detective in arson, property crimes, narcotics, and as a crime prevention officer. Marianne joined Mufon in 2015 and became a field investigator. She is an instructor for the Mufon Boot Camp and Symposium, teaching Advanced Interview Techniques and Evidence Collection. What she learned from doing investigations and attending the Mufon meeting, inspired her to commit to helping find the truth behind the mysterious UFO phenomenon. Marianne believes that the government and others who are researching this phenomenon are all looking for the same thing – THE TRUTH. She hopes one day all of these research groups will work together toward the common goal of uncovering what is going on in our skies. Retired with 25 years as a Police officer in Arizona.  Dave Rich started his career in patrol, then worked in the investigations unit as a gang detective, homicide, sex crimes and narcotics detective. Dave joined the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) and worked as a field investigator. He is an instructor for the MUFON Boot Camp and Symposium teaching Advanced Interview Techniques and Evidence Collection. https://mufonsymposium.com/ [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa1U3ZXVZdlh0ZWpMc1V2b2RZOGNZWFpZVnhlZ3xBQ3Jtc0trdVVvcEZtZ2UzQkVuV21lOE5Hc0g0VUpteUdXeWdzT25wMk1OVmJMWGR4TXRpaHFoZ2JzUUtNelZLNWZxaDd2QkMyZWhnRHFpd1E3VmJiWUdyQ25tUUtlV201RkN1Y3hGMHZtTkxCcDBhZFBxRUVlQQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fmufonsymposium.com%2F&v=IcTrrnaLgvk] Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-official-mufon-podcast--3542831/support [https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-official-mufon-podcast--3542831/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss].
