The 'UFO Letters' Of
Senator Barry Goldwater
From Joachim Koch <>
From UFO UpDates-Toronto <>
12-11-98
Today, I would like to present here to you -- exclusively for Errol's fine list and so far we never published it elsewhere -- some pieces that The International Roswell Initiative has received when we all were busy making contacts to get support in 1994.
Surely you remember the attempt of Senator Barry Goldwater to get access to Hangar 8 at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in the seventies. They denied any access even for him as a Senator. On behalf of The International Roswell Initiative, Kent Jeffrey once wrote to Senator Goldwater and received an interesting response. Also we received copies of 4 additional letters whereof I would like to give the transcript of the texts, because due to copying some of the letters are barely readable. The letters are real and no hoaxes.

Dear Mr. Graham:
Thank you for your letter concerning rumors involving objects of an extraterrestrial nature that may be kept in the "Blue Room" at Wright-Patterson A.F.B.
Quite frankly, with respect to this subject about which I am not personally familiar, I must defer to the position of Senator Goldwater, Chairman of the Senate Intelligences Committee, when he writes that "this thing has gotten so highly classified...it is just impossible to get anything on it."
Thank you for your interest.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Arnon:
The subject of UFOs is one that has interested me for some long time. About ten or twelve years ago, I made an effort to find out what was in the building at Wright Patterson Air Force Base where the information is stored that has been collected by the Air Force, and I was understandably denied this request. It is still classified above Top Secret. I have, however, heard that there is a plan under way to release some -- if not all -- of this material in the near future. I'm just as anxious to see this material as you are, and I hope we will not have to wait too much longer.
Sincerely

Dear Mr. Graham:
First, let me tell you that I have long ago given up acquiring access to the so-called "Blue Room" at Wright-Patterson, as I have had one long string of denials from chief after chief. So I have given up.
In answer to your questions, one is essentially correct. I don't know of anyone who has access to the Blue Room, nor am I aware of its contents and I am not aware of anything having been relocated. I can't answer your question 6. In fact, I can't find anyone who would answer it.
To tell you the truth, Mr. Graham, this thing has gotten so highly-classified, even though I will admit there is a lot of it that has been released, it is just impossible to get anything on it.
I am returning your papers because I know they are of value to you.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Steinman:
To answer your questions, I have never gained access to the so-called "Blue Room" at Wright Patterson, so I have no idea what is in it. I have no idea of who controls the flow of need-to-know because, frankly, I was told in such an emphatic way that it was none of my business that I've never tried to make it to my business since.
I wish you luck on your investigation. I'm one of those people who believe that with some two billion planets scattered around the universe, there has to be a couple of more that can support life on it.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Jeffrey:
You touched something very close to me, by your letter. Roswell has long been a point of great interest to me since the first UFOs turned up. You see, I both believe in UFOs and I don't believe in them. My argument is that God -- in creating the universes as He did -- would not just have made one planet with living things.
Butch Blanchard was a very close friend of mine. I worked with him in the Air Force and am almost certain that I knew your father, the Colonel. There is not much we can do about getting the things about Roswell that you would like. I tried diligently to get them from General LeMay. And the only cussing-out he ever gave me was when I very vociferously asked him for information.
It was nice to hear from you. I guess we'l1 just keep on trying.
Sincerely,

At least it was interesting to read the letters because they confirm again the existence of a super-secret Hangar at Wright Patterson AFB and they give a historic aspect on Senator Goldwater and his interest in extraterrestrial intelligence.
And, of course, they show, how powerless our elected representatives are against the military complex.
