Sand first gained national detection in 1971, by placing the still-classified Pentagon Papers-which important U.S. government malfeasance into the Vietnam War-into the shared monitor.
Sand held the revelations by former/retired Captains Robert Salas, Bruce Fenstermacher, and David Schindele, as well as retired Apology Policeman Sgt. David Scott, are "the smoking gun of the picture perfect typescript" of government secrecy on UFOs.

That is counter-productive if one is attempting to exercise the shared about the UFO reality and undercuts the substance of the Alarm surgery that he apparently requests to lead to about."

AIR Constraint SIDELINES 17 ICBM OFFICERS Behind schedule UNPUBLICIZED FAILINGS.
The Air Constraint unclothed an unprecedented 17 officers of their professional to control - and, if vital, institute - nuclear military hardware after a perpetual of unpublicized failings, in the midst of a particularly dim go over of their unit's institute skills. The group's reserve commander-in-chief held it is disruption "rot" within its ranks.
"We are, in fact, in a crisis exact now," the commander-in-chief, Lt. Col. Jay Folds, wrote in an central email obtained by The Interconnected Push and confirmed by the Air Constraint.
Asked about this at a Assembly pain Wednesday, Air Constraint Secretary Michael Donley, the service's top police man, explained the defectiveness by stressing that institute control officers are considerably junior in position - lieutenants and captains - and guide to be reminded for all time of the prominence of "this large responsibility" for which they handhold been capable.
Donley held commanders condition "roll flock" on the institute crews, and he held the Minot astound shows that the Air Constraint has strengthened its hold sway over system. He held he is jaunty that the nuclear skeleton force is grasp.
Sen. Richard Durbin, chairman of the Assembly Appropriations defense subcommittee, uttered dismay, idiom the AP report not on a defectiveness that "might not be above troubling."
At the Pentagon, Exempt Secretary Fling Hagel was briefed on the Minot finicky by his high-class task and asked for extra information, according to his presenter, George Small.
The indication to badly behaved was a Put something through its paces hold sway over of the 91st Carcass Split at Minot Air Constraint Pedestal, N.D., which earned the be level with of a "D" descent so experienced on its mastery of Minuteman III skeleton institute operations. In other areas, the officers experienced greatly respite, but the group's on the whole strength was deemed so perceptive that high-class officers at Minot grave, after inquisitive ultra, that an expeditious target was called for.
The Air Constraint publicly called the hold sway over a "be successful."
But in April it soothingly unsophisticated 17 officers at Minot from the severely sensible overtax of good name 24-hour watch over the Air Force's most strenuous nuclear military hardware, the intercontinental ballistic military hardware that can belt targets imaginatively the planet. During both underground institute control ball, two officers stand "lithe" at all become old, obliging to institute an ICBM upon presidential outspoken.
"You force be a move stove for at token 60 verve," Folds wrote.
The 17 cases feeling the Air Force's most voluminous sidelining always of institute ensemble members, according to Lt. Col. Angie Blair, a spokeswoman for Air Constraint Global Strike Demand, which oversees the skeleton units as well as nuclear-capable bombers. The wing has 150 officers assigned to skeleton institute control overtax.
Appearing together with Donley at Wednesday's Assembly pain, the Air Constraint key of task, Gen. Pockmark Welsh, held Folds and other high-class commanders at Minot unsophisticated the 17 institute ensemble members after decisive that they had "above of an comportment defectiveness than a ability defectiveness." He held he certified their check of the defectiveness.
The badly behaved at Minot is the latest in a series of setbacks for the Air Force's nuclear committee, highlighted by a 2008 Pentagon illustrative group report that found a "bright and outmoded slump" in the Air Force's assurance to the committee, which has its birth in a Brisk War deadlock together with the initial Soviet Union.
In 2008, then-Defense Secretary Robert Gates sacked the top civilian and military leaders of the Air Constraint after a series of blunders, in the midst of a bomber's not right flight imaginatively the might location together with nuclear-tipped military hardware. In the function of with the Air Constraint has eventful myriad steps expected to whole its nuclear implementation.
The email obtained by the AP describes a instruction of iciness, together with at token one obstinate get through of skeleton self-confidence program and an external reluctance among several to emasculate or report group who step over program.
In retort to AP follow a line of investigation, the Air Constraint held the lapses never put the sentry of the nuclear force at wager. It held the officers who lost their certification to function ICBMs are now accomplishment above instruction together with the expectation that they force advance to normal overtax within about two months. The military hardware time lag on their normal war possess, officials held.
However sidelining 17 institute officers at subsequent to is unprecedented, the Air Constraint held stripping officers of their professional to control nuclear military hardware happens to "a unfriendly issue forth" of officers several blind date for a force to of reasons.
In sum total to the 17, discretionary in reprisal contrive is next opposed to one other supervisor at Minot who investigators found had doggedly flashing a skeleton self-confidence standard in an nameless act that might handhold compromised the secret codes that enable the introduction of military hardware, which stand on high lithe in underground silos in the nation's midsection. Officials held exhibit was no bid of skeleton self-confidence or sentry.
Folds is reserve commander-in-chief of the 91st Operations Series, whose three squadrons are full-fledged for manning the wing's 15 Minuteman III institute control centers.
Advising his troops on April 12 that they had "fallen," Folds wrote that drastic retaliatory contrive was obligatory seeing as "we didn't wake up" after an underwhelming hold sway over in Put something through its paces that he held amounted to a shortfall, non-negotiable time the unit's on the whole implementation duly was rated "pleasant." That is two notches bottom the tip rating.
"And now we're discovering such rot in the ensemble force that your customs ever since on lithe is deal of" weapons self-confidence standard violations, discretionary train compromises and other failings, "all in the see to of not inconveniencing yourselves," Folds wrote.
Folds also complained about unwarranted interested of directions from snobbish officers by institute crews and shortfall to family superiors together with the firm pertain to.
"We are breaking you down, and we force generate from the ground up," Folds ultra. He later wrote, "It takes real leaders to nonstop complete a crisis and we are, in fact, in a crisis exact now."
He told his subordinates, "You condition function to revolve over the rocks and persuade the rot."
At the same time as the AP inquired about the Folds email, the Air Constraint glad a appeal interview together with one of Folds' superiors, Col. Robert Vercher, commander-in-chief of the 91st Carcass Split. The wing is one of three that function the nation's hasty of 450 Minuteman III missiles; the two others are at Malmstrom Air Constraint Pedestal, Mont., and F.E. Hollow out Air Constraint Pedestal, Wyo.
"We are wound up anytime we're passing under than we pretend of ourselves," Vercher held, calculation that he and other high-class officers are implementing an preying and new-found plan to invigorate a monitor of high implementation among institute control officers.
"Introduce was a defectiveness," Vercher held. "And we force fix it."
Vercher held Folds was expressing displeasure.
"That is a very emotional head self-conscious by a implementation bottom our expectation," Vercher held, calculation that Folds was disturbance by the hold sway over, which was by the inspector complete of the Air Constraint Global Strike Demand.
Vercher held Folds was informer his officers, in vacation, "Fairly unpretentiously, you guys have to all be self-conscious that in an area that's key, you approved but you were rated as very problematic to not sharp, and that's not respectable."
The hold sway over area to which Vercher referred was ability at lively the skeleton institute simulator and responses to written questions about measures. Their implementation was rated "minor," which Vercher held is the be level with of a "D" descent. The inspector's office told the AP that "minor" is a sharp rating, "but thinker is needed from authority to family issues in the future they bear ludicrous."
"Nothing is warm together with that," Vercher held.
The institute simulator is hand-me-down in problematical for hold sway over seeing as, for insistent reasons, they can't set off an authentic skeleton institute.
Exposure of shortcomings within Vercher's unit recalls an early series of stunning mistakes by other elements of the nuclear force, in the midst of the Regal 2007 incident in which an Air Constraint B-52 bomber flew from Minot to Barksdale Air Constraint Pedestal, La., without the ensemble realizing it was location together with six nuclear-tipped trip military hardware. One terminate of the incident was the initiation of Global Strike Demand in January 2009 as a way of getting your strength back handling of the nuclear enterprise.
Bruce Blair, who served as an Air Constraint ICBM institute control supervisor in the 1970s and is now a research believer at Princeton University, held the Folds email points to a broader defectiveness within the nuclear weapons force.
"The nuclear air force is disruption from a convincing malaise caused by the at death's door leisure activity of their committee when the Brisk War's end over 20 years ago," Blair held in an interview. "Minuteman institute crews handhold long been marginalized and demoralized by the fact that the Air Force's instruction and fast-track careers revolve round about flying planes, not sitting in underground bunkers baby-sitting nuclear-armed military hardware."
Blair is co-founder of Global Nonentity, an international group that advocates the final shooting of nuclear weapons. - HUFFINGTON Post.
