Richard French, a former Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Air Force, made a stunning claim in 2013 that the US government had been concealing the existence of extraterrestrials since the infamous Roswell incident. During his more than 27 years of service in the US Army, French was stationed in various places, including Korea, Vietnam, Laos, and the Cuban Missile Crisis.
The Roswell Incident
In a news announcement on July 8, 1947, Colonel Jesse Marcel claimed that “the US Air Force has recovered a flying disc with alien beings that had crashed in New Mexico.” Unfortunately, the information in a subsequent press release was altered, and this time, the crashed UFO was shown to be a wrecked hot air balloon.
Although many were skeptical about the crash, several US military officers stated that the crash was indeed an extraterrestrial craft containing aliens.
Additionally, the US government reported on the entire incident under the guise of a military program that became popular as Project Mogul.
French said that he witnessed the UFO crash in 1947 in Alamogordo, New Mexico. He gave an interview, in which he recalled the day of the shocking incident and mentioned that there had been two accidents in Roswell.
“There were actually two crashes at Roswell, which most people don’t know.”
“The first one was shot down by an experimental US airplane that was flying out of White Sands, N.M., and it shot what was effectively an electronic pulse-type weapon that disabled and took away all the controls of the UFO, and that’s why it crashed… When they hit it with that electromagnetic pulse — bingo! — there goes all their electronics and, consequently, the UFO was uncontrollable.”
The electromagnetic pulse that struck the UFO caused some glitches in its electronic system leading to its ultimate crash.
French asserted that he was, in fact, a government debunker of UFOs. He learned about the UFO that was shot down and the subsequent second crash near Roswell from a secret military source.
Other army leaders refused to believe French’s startling claims, and they questioned how, with such primitive laser systems at the time, the US army could have developed pulse-power weapon systems in the 1960s. French further stated that he was informed about the second crash by a confidential source, and the crash took place quite close to the first crash.
The Underwater UFO Encounter of Richard French
Lt. Col. Richard French spent more than 27 years in the US Army. He received his army commission and was promoted to fly fighter jets.
During his service in the US army, he was stationed in a variety of places, including Korea, Vietnam, Laos, and the Cuban Missile Crisis. When Lt. Col.
French allegedly served as Project Blue Book’s senior investigator in the 1950s, it was his duty to refute false and fabricated UFO encounters.
French also had an underwater UFO encounter in the early 1970s while he was in Puerto Rico. According to him, he was with a team of naval technicians who were conducting an underwater sonar test near Puerto Rico when they spotted a large object in the water. French dove in and found the object to be a massive underwater craft.
“It was a classic flying saucer, and it was huge — about the size of a football”…
