Since 2020, the number of UFO sightings has increased in many locations in the United States. The recent statement about UFO reports by former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe surprised everyone.
He said some UFO sightings are difficult to explain. Some officials are concerned about the continued sighting of UFOs over military bases. Is there any possibility that military operations are being controlled by these UFOs? Not long ago, former U.S. Air Force Captain Robert Salas believed that UFOs are real and interfere with the military’s nuclear program.
A 30-year investigation by UFO researcher Robert L. Hastings has revealed shocking information about the connections between UFOs and nuclear weapons. He interviewed more than 50 senior U.S. Army officers ranging from nuclear missile launch and targeting officers to missile maintenance personnel and missile security police. According to him, UFO activity at U.S. Army bases has been noted since 1948. His sources told him that UFO incidents primarily occurred at “Malmstrom, Minot, F.E. Warren, Ellsworth, Vandenberg and Walker AFBs, between 1963 and 1996. Other sources were at Wurtsmith and Loring AFBs, where B-52 nuclear bombers were based during the Cold War era.”

One incident mentioned by Captain Salas occurred on the morning of March 16, 1967. He was at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana in an underground capsule when he was informed by security forces that a glowing red object had been seen at the front gate of the base.
One of the aviators was enjoying the clear morning sky when suddenly a star appeared in the sky, moving in a zigzag pattern. Then another light came and started doing the same thing. He called the Flight Security Controller (FSC) and the two observed the movement of these strange lights. They reported it to Salas and he asked them to keep an eye on the lights.
At first it didn’t worry Salas because he thought maybe his colleagues were joking. After some time he was called again by the controller and he (FSC) was scared and screaming. They were watching a UFO hovering outside the front gate.
“I can’t describe it. It’s glowing red. What should we do? Make sure the location is secure and I’ll call Command Post. Sir, I have to go now, one of the guys just got hurt.”
After this Salas lost communication with the airman and the security guard. He immediately contacted his commander Lt. Fred Meiwald who was sleeping at the time. While he was on the call with Lt. Meiwald, a security alarm went off indicating a problem with the missile system. He checked the issue and found that there was a ‘No-Go’ light and two red security lights on. He was just trying to figure out what went wrong when several alarms went off consecutively and they lost “the entire launch of ten ICBMs to a ‘No-Go’ (inoperable) condition.”

He reported the incident to his command post and got information from the security guard that the man who had seen the UFO was seriously injured. The security guard also told him that the UFO was disc-shaped and was constantly hovering near the front gate.
“They could have done a lot more damage, permanent damage to our weapons systems, but they didn’t,” Salas said. “If they wanted to destroy them with all the powers they seem to have, I think they could have done that job so I personally don’t think it was a hostile intent,” Salas said.
According to documents released about the incident, a team of Boeing engineers conducted an investigation but found nothing that could confirm why the missile system failed. Robert Kaminski, who was leading the team, said: “There were no significant engineering failures or findings that would explain how ten missiles were activated and deactivated on alert” and “… there was no technical explanation that could explain the event.”
Several other engineers tried their luck to find the cause of the missile system’s failure, but no solid evidence was found. In the end, they concluded that the system could have failed due to an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) sent from an unknown source.
Robert L. Hastings collected information on the subject from several Army personnel, including Sgt. Louis D. Kenneweg, Airman 1st Class David Hughes, Staff Sgt. Joseph M. Chassey, Lt. Col. Robert Peisher (USAF Ret.)
