The US Government’s Cash-Landrum UFO Investigations



The US Government’s Cash-Landrum UFO Investigations

     The 2017 disclosure of the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) renewed interest in the US government’s post-Project Blue Book investigations of UFOs. The Cash-Landrum incident of December 29, 1980, occurred about ten years after the Air Force study of UFOs came to an official close. Documents prove that there was an official interest in the Cash-Landrum case, so it provides a perfect subject to use in a search for evidence of further UFO investigations by government agencies.

There were several known official inquiries into the Cash-Landrum case, from the local level to the federal government. Some are well-known, while there are others that are virtually unheard of. We’ll look at them all, and provide sources for further information.

The $20 Million Cash-Landrum UFO Story

The $20 Million Cash-Landrum UFO Story

      The Cash-Landrum UFO case publicity made a splash in 1981, but had a second wave starting in 1983 after the filing of the lawsuit against the US Government for 20 million dollars in damages. The suit stuck to the details of original incident, avoiding later embellishments such as the legend of the scorched road being removed and replaced by men in unmarked trucks.

Despite the resolve of Betty Cash and Vickie Landrum, there was not sufficient evidence to take the case to trial, and as attorney Peter Gersten later revealed, it was a bluff:

MY UFO EXPERIENCE: Witness Expresses Trepidation in Sharing Saucer Story, Requests Removal

Flying Saucer Swoops Down on B-2
By Frank Warren
7-8-07

     Recently a reader wrote in via the “Share Your UFO Experience” portal (above), and detailed an account of seeing a very large “Flying Saucer” (he compared it to the size of a football field); this encounter took place while doing maneuvers over Nevada.

He further stated, that after flying over the craft, it then rose and shot off at speeds unavailable to anything he was aware “in our inventory.”

After returning to base he and his crew were “debriefed” (by “suits”) and instructed not to talk about this matter, or the craft.

After we published his missive, he became apprehensive, and stated that the story was made up and to ignore it; a few hours later he asked to have it removed completely.

As a rule, we don’t publish the author’s name in association with their respective UFO experiences, unless specifically asked to do. This gives the individual anonymity, and prompts others to come forward without fear of ridicule, etc. Of course any and all narratives are just that and have to be taken with a grain of salt.

In this particular regard, whether the account is true or not, I don’t know; however, it made for a good read in any event.

I pointed out to the author, that his name would remain confidential, and asked if he would reconsider; his reply was in the negative; henceforth his report has been removed as requested—FW
