After that initial exposure to the UFO subject at NMMT, there was a flood of serendipitous activity.
A group of us were sitting around my dorm room studying for a calculus exam, when one of the newer students started talking about his father. His dad had worked for Texas Instruments and was very influential about the development of the handheld calculators, especially the high-end devices that were going head to head against Hewlett Packard.
Now, according to my friend, his father had been involved in some back engineering while he had been in the army right after World War II. He stated that his dad had be present when the occupants of a crashed craft were brought to the base where his dad had been stationed. The autopsies were performed there, filmed and photographed.
The technology from the wreckage had been dispersed amongst the R&D from several branches of the military. This occurred around late 1974 or early 1975. The resurgence of Roswell would be at least 3-4 years off, and according to my friend, the bodies only stayed within the auspices of the base before being taken away.
The physician, according to my friend, had left the base and ended up somewhere in Canada. Shortly before this student had attended NMMT, his dad committed “suicide” from which my friend never emotionally recovered.
At the end of the study session, one of the students who worked as part of a work-study program at TERA, described to me a bit of film that had been taken at the facility. TERA was a US Naval facility in the New Mexico desert right at the back of NMMT. Terminal Effects Research and Analysis (TERA)
My next blog will contain the story behind the film.
