SUBJECT: Visit to
WADC
4 Nov 52
Capt. E. J. Ruppelt and Lt. R. M. Olsson visited Col. Hood, Chief
of Nuclear Powered Aircraft Branch of WADC.
Col. Hood had contacted ATIC in regard to certain sightings of
UFO's at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in which he and a Naval officer
had attempted to obtain correlation between sightings and peaks in
radiation backgrounds.
Col. Hood's Nuclear Powered Aircraft Branch was interested in
Einstein's theories on a relationship between gravity and magnetic
lines of force and how this theory could be utilized for power.
Conclusions:
There are indications that there may be some correlation
present between unknown radar pickups and rises in radiation
