Fernando Cámara

Fernando Cámara is a Spanish military officer who rose from Captain to Colonel in the Spanish Air Force and was assigned to an air wing. He was involved in official UFO case investigations including the paradigmatic UMMO affair — a series of alleged extraterrestrial communications and sightings in Spain during the 1960s and 1970s. His role underscores early European government engagement with UAP phenomena and military oversight of unexplained aerial incidents.
