AFOSI reports no records on Yankee Blue inquiry
The Air Force Office of Special Investigations responded to FOIA case 2025-06002-F in June 2025. Investigators found no documentation regarding alleged hazing rituals associated with the Yankee Blue program. This adds to a pattern of defense agencies unable to locate reported materials.

Background
During June 2025, the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI) processed a request for records regarding purported investigative activities. Case 2025-06002-F specifically targeted reports, summaries, and closure documentation about alleged rituals that convinced participants they worked on reverse-engineering projects.
AFOSI officials determined that no responsive records exist within their holdings. This finding follows similar negative responses from other defense entities regarding the same subject matter. The consistent absence of documentation across multiple agencies challenges the verifiability of original narratives published by major media outlets.
While other entities such as Inspector General offices might possess relevant materials, none have surfaced through formal transparency channels. The lack of corroborating evidence raises questions about the factual basis of previously circulated accounts.
