Release of MOD UFO Files under the Freedom of Information Act.
Today, 12 July 2012, the Government have released their 9th collection of their MOD UFO files to “The National Archives” in Kew, TW9 4DU. The period they cover is from 1996 to 1999.
They area available for download from: http://ufos.nationalarchives.gov.uk. They are available free for the first few weeks, so if you want to read them without charge, go get them soon!
The files have been compiled by Dr. David Clarke who is a lecturer in journalism at Sheffield Hallam University. ~ His PhD. is in Folklore! ~ Say no more!
I was wondering why this little lot have been released during July 2012 rather than in February 2012, which was their ‘due date’ in line with all the previous files, on a six monthly cycle! Could there be an underlying reason that the release of them is so close to the start of the 2012 London Olympics? ~ What was that article in the MailOnline recently about UFO’s paying a visit to the London Olympics?
We shall have to wait and see!
