Capt. Edward J. Ruppelt:
In late September 1952 the NATO naval forces had held maneuvers off the coast of Europe, they were called Operation Mainbrace.
Before they had started, someone in the Pentagon had half seriously mentioned that Naval Intelligence should keep an eye open for UFOs, but no one really expected the UFOs to show up. Nevertheless, once again the UFOs were their old unpredictable selves, they were there.
