The Flying Saucers & the US Air Force

by Lawrence J. Tacker

Description It is generally a good idea to return to the classics in any genre. This also goes for UFO literature. Rereading a book, or reviewing old documents after ten or twenty years is a rewarding experience. You will discover new data and ideas you didnt notice before. The reason, of course, is that you are, in many ways, not the same person reading the book the second or third time. Hopefully you have advanced in knowledge, experience, intellectual and spiritual discernment. A good starting point is to reread the contactee classics material of the 1960s, in order to understand the deeper mystery involved in what happened during that era. The 1960 book entitled: Flying Saucers And The U S Air Force, by Lt. Colonel Lawrence J. Tacker was "anti-UFO," but it is essential because it contains many items of interest, including a collection of letters from civilians and a reproduction of Air Force UFO regulations and press releases. The author was the official Air Force spokesman on UFOs in 1960 at the Pentagon4. This book was published at the same time as Donald Keyhoe's Flying saucers: Top secret (1960) and Keyhoe is mentioned several times.
