Dr. Eric Walker Confirms MJ-12 and UFO Crash Retrievals to Researcher

On August 30, 1987, researcher William Steinman phones Dr. Eric A. Walker, former President of Penn State University and former Chair of the Institute for Defense Analysis (IDA), the most elite military think tank in the U.S. Walker had been Executive Secretary of the Military's Research & Development Board in 1950-1951. In a remarkable phone conversation, Walker confirms he attended meetings at Wright-Patterson AFB 'concerning the military recovery of Flying Saucers, and bodies of occupants.' When asked about MJ-12, Walker says: 'Yes, I know of MJ-12. I have known of them for 40 years.' He tells Steinman to 'leave it alone and drop it.' In a follow-up letter three weeks later, Walker writes that 'some things you have right, and some things you have very wrong' — confirming a 'machine' was recovered, 'obviously a landing vehicle only,' and that 'no dead bodies were found at the site — only four normal looking males who were very much alive' and were 'absorbed into American culture.'
