Of course fren...wish I could remember the year but I attended a free talk a University, they must have paid him. It was in a large theatre on Campus. Dr. Hynek gave an overview of his early career and how he was hired by the Air Force to investigate UFOS for Blue Book. At the time he was extremely skeptical about the sightings and that was exactly the way the Air Force wanted it. However when Hynek began in investigating reports by pilots, law enforcement and other trained observers he changed his mind. Later, after Blue Book was closed, Hynek developed his Close Encounter Rankings; of the First, Second & Third kind.
He gave his talk with a photos on a huge screen with examples of some of the most fascinating photos he investigated. Afterwards, he held a Q & A and audience members went up to a microphone in the aisle. He seemed shocked when I asked my question if he had any theories about what exactly the
Foo Fighters were since most people were asking about Blue Book. He said that he was fascinated about them also but knew they weren't flak.
I actually got to see Dr. J. Allen Hynek speak at a University and was able to ask him a question about the WWII FOO FIGHTERS.
Wow, that must be quite the experience. What was his answer to your question?
It was an amazing experience!
If you have time and in the mood, please do share more :) Would love to hear more.
