Hello all,


Here is a repost of a message that I had sent to the now defunct SUFOG back
in January of this year. I didn't really get any reponses with information
that was useful. Mabye somebody here can verify or refute these claims. I
am still in contact with the individual, so if you have any questions, feel
free to ask & I will try to get some answers.

Status: OR

Serious group,

I have just finished talking with an X-airman, he was in the USAF in the early
sixties. He had Q5 Top Secret security clearence. He was an electronics
technician & crypto expert, as was his father before him. I wanted to share
this information with you all before I brought it out in a.a.v, for obvious
reasons.

I also wanted to see if anyone had heard about an underground base at Kelley/
Kelly? AFB somewhere in Texas.

He had some quite interesting stories that he told me, they are from memory, so
they are not verbatim. Here is one of them:

Timeline 1960-1963.....We will call him airman Smith:

At the time this occured, airman Smith was stationed in W.Germany. One night he
was orded to fly stateside for a hush-hush emergency. His orders were to secure
damaged equiptment,store said equiptment in footlocker provided to him, sit on
the locker, guard it with his life until he delivered it to an undisclosed
location, where he was to disembark & repair damaged equiptment.

He landed in some unmarked landing strip somewhere in the Nevada desert, where
he met up with two other airmen from two other spots on the globe. They all
traveled together to the CRASH site in an old jeep. The craft was one of ours,
proto-pre-SR71 or something like that. He stated it was some kind of (fast)
recon bird. They (the technicians) each had a piece of equiptment assigned to
them. They were each responsable for those individual pieces & were not allowed
to talk to each other about what they were doing.

After retrieving the required parts, the were flown to Kelly/Kelley? AFB in
Texas. They landed with no problem, this is where it gets kinda weird. As they
are taxiing down the runway, they pull in between two hangars & were waiting
for what he assumed would be one of thoses tow-vehicles to pull them into the
hangar. The next thing he felt was very strange, he felt like they were going
down, & after about 15 seconds as things got darker, he was quite sure of it.
He estimated that it took about 3-5minutes to get to what he thought the bottom
was. After diembarking from the plane, he was greeted by some gents that had
black uniforms & black berets'. They had no markings or insignias at all. He
did recall what he perceived as an enlisted man call one of the soliders
Lieutenant.

The Hanger/ was estimated to be about 100yds long & 60-100ft high, in a semi-
dome configuration or quansit-hut(sp?) I didn't get a chance to ask how wide,
but he did say the aircraft could be turned around fully in the area. There
were no windows in the walls, only reinforced steel doors. He(airman Smith)
felt that this area branched off in four different directions, he didn't
elaborate why he felt this except to say that that is the impression he got.

He & the other technicians were then escorted to separate small but highly
sophisticated labs. He said the equiptment that he was allowed to use was years
ahead of whatever was on the open market. He said that the most of the test
equiptment he used was fairly easy to use as opposed to some of the equiptment
he used on a daily basis.

 They (The airmen) were to analyze the equiptment & repair it. Each of the labs
were equipped with sleeping quarters & all meals were brought to them. He was
there for three days & did not see another soul(with the exceptions of the
guards of course) , & was not allowed to roam the area at all. He was debriefed
before he left for quite a few hours.

Not a barn burner of a story, but I felt it might be interesting to some of
you. When I get some TIME, I will fwd some of his other stories.

Thanks ,

Rod
