US Air Force Lt. Col. Richard French, recounting the 1950 incident, admitted to seeing aliens and their ships.
In the early 1950s, a project called Project Blue Book was founded in the United States to collect, study and analyze UFO reports. By the time the project was terminated in 1970, experts said that aliens, like their aircraft, did not exist, and that strange objects were airplanes or natural phenomena.
US Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Richard French took part in the project and was tasked with stopping false reports of UFO sightings. The duties of the soldier also included travel to the place of alleged contact with the aliens.
French did not elaborate on what he saw on the job, but at a recent disclosure hearing in Washington, D. C., the 83-year-old retired officer confessed to having seen the aliens and their ships with his own eyes.
According to the ex-lieutenant colonel, in the early 1950s from the residents of the Canadian city of St. John's, the capital of the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, information was received that several UFOs were seen off the coast of the Atlantic Ocean. The authorities ordered French to leave for St. John's and investigate the situation.
“I was told that there is a report on unidentified flying objects and I have to take this investigation,” recalls a former project employee. - I was provided with information according to which two vehicles plunged into the water at a speed of about 100 miles per hour (161 km / h). By the time I arrived, many people had gathered at the pier, including several local police officers, who were staring in amazement at the water surface.
The water was very clear and I could clearly see two circular vessels, each about 18 feet (5.5 meters) in diameter and 3 feet (0.9 meters) high. The objects floated below the surface of the water several feet apart and 20 feet (6 meters) from the shore.
Near the ships I saw two light gray creatures about 2 or 3 feet high (0.6 or 0.9 meters). They had very thin long arms with two or three fingers. The upper part of the head of these creatures was much wider than their jawline, and the eyes were slanted and seemed to be without pupils. They looked like aliens from the movie.

Then one of the ships flew out of the water, but returned after 20 minutes. The creatures again approached the apparatus and began some action. After 20 minutes, both ships slowly rose out of the water, accelerated and disappeared from sight. I think the aliens were repairing vehicles and testing their reliability."
According to the Huffington Post website, the lieutenant colonel filed a fictitious report in which he indicated that he saw a foreign vehicle.
“Oh, I have no doubt they were UFOs with aliens on board. But my task was to debunk the story about aliens, so I did everything possible to achieve this goal, - said Richard French.
