Goldwater UFO Files to be Released in Early March[/color]
Posted: Wed, 15 Feb 2012
Relative to your question about the accuracy of the details in the “Roswell Incident,” they are partially true, but not completely. I can’t give you any other answer than that so please don’t push it. Senator Barry Goldwater – then Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee - July 1981
In early March 100 pages of UFO douments from the Senator Barry Goldwater files will be posted at the Presidents UFO website. Goldwater was a long-time United States Senator, a Major-General in the USAF reserve, the 1964 Republican candidate for President, and the former Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
In these documents Goldwater makes a revealing reference to the UFO crash in Roswell, and in another document offers to set up a meeting for Dr. Steven Greer with Bobby Ray Inman, long rumored to have headed up the engineering program connected to UFO technology.
The Goldwater UFO documents consist of letters to and from people writing Goldwater about his long-standing interest in UFOs. In most of the letters Goldwater refers to his now infamous meeting in 1964 or 1966 with General Curtis Lemay where Goldwater requested access to the “Blue Room” at WPAFB, where alien bodies and hardware were rumored to have been held. In the letters Goldwater consistently states that he was refused entry by LeMay. “I have never been allowed to see what has been stored in that place at Wright-Patterson and neither has anyone else, as far as I know,” he told one letter writer.
Beyond this Wright-Patterson incident Goldwater stated that he did not know much more about UFOs than the man on the street. In a few of the letters, however, Goldwater indicates that government held UFO material is probably classified above top secret and that he sympathized with the decision if this was the case.
Despite Goldwater’s constant reference to the fact he was not in the loop he did not have inside information on UFOs he did made one interesting reference to the 1947 Roswell crash that indicated that he had asked questions and had been given some sort of briefing on what happened at Roswell.
This reference comes in a letter to a fellow ham operator in Australia - Sam Kaufman. The letter was written in 1981 when Goldwater was Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee and just after the release of the book “The Roswell Incident” which put the Roswell story into the public mind.
In answer to the question of what really happened at Roswell, Goldwater made this revealing statement, “Relative to your question about the accuracy of the details in the ‘Roswell Incident,’ they are partially true, but not completely. I can’t give you any other answer than that so please don’t push it.”
This idea that Goldwater was aware of secret UFO information was reaffirmed in a 1988 interview given by Goldwater to Larry King where he said he did think information was being withheld. “I think some highly secret government UFO investigations are going on that we don't know about” said Goldwater, “and probably never will unless the Air Force discloses them.”
The final interesting revelation in the documents comes in correspondence between Goldwater and Dr. Steven Greer, who at the time of the letter was the director of the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CSETI). Based on the letters it appeared that Greer had a personal meetings with Goldwater on the subject of UFOs in early January 1994. This meeting occurred the month after Greer met to discuss UFOs and John Petersen from the Arlington Institute and then Clinton CIA Director James Woolsey.
In a letter to Goldwater dated November 1, 1994 Greer makes reference to the January 1994 meeting and to the fact that Goldwater had offered to set up a meeting for Greer with Bobby Ray Inman who was rumored to have been in charge of the engineering program surrounding recovered UFOs. Greer wrote, “Things have progressed to where I believe we should pursue a meeting with Admiral Bobby Ray Inman; you mentioned when we met in January that you could help setup this meeting.
A search of letters between Inman and Goldwater showed one non-related letter from Inman to Goldwater. There was nothing found to indicate whether or not Goldwater arranged the meeting between Greer and Inman.
