US: Forest Service Releases UFO Files and Photographs
On February 7, 2017, the U.S. Forest Service delivered a 20-page document package containing UFO reports and photographic evidence submitted by agency personnel. This release marked the first official disclosure of such records by the federal land management agency.
Background
The disclosed materials comprised twenty pages of records, including images that allegedly captured unidentified aerial phenomena. The photographs, though provided in limited resolution, represented visual documentation gathered by forest service employees during their duties in various protected natural areas. This disclosure represented a significant release of historical UFO documentation from a non-military federal agency responsible for managing vast tracts of wilderness across the United States. The records potentially contained sightings from remote forest regions where personnel conduct regular patrols and conservation activities.
