who was its residing expert. Only slowly, if at all, was this
secret science leaked or given to American industry and then only
with an appropriate cover-story, one which may even supply a
pseudo-inventor of that technology. This is conspiracy at its
finest. This deception is beyond the scope of this book but what
is important for us now is that sometimes a mistake or slip-up
was made in writing or censoring these reports and hints of
things of stupendous technological worth actually surfaces. Such
is the case with Combined Intelligence Objectives Sub-Committee
Report number 146 regarding Dr. Georg Otto Erb and his work which
is reproduced here.
Dr. Erb was on the cutting edge of several technologies according
to this report. None of these technologies was especially
exciting in 1946, however. Jets, rockets and atomic energy where
the hot-ticket items of the time. Nobody cared about new sources
of electrical energy. The USA had plenty of electricity and
plenty of oil to generate more. It was also known by then that
atomic power could be applied to generate even more electricity.
Nobody cared about Dr. Erb's experiments listed under item (iii)
"Apparatus for conversion of residual heat into electrical
energy" or item (viii) "Electrical sources of energy of various
kinds" or even item (ix) "Apparatus for turning the energy of the
sun's rays into electrical energy". Since nobody cared about
these things, there was really no reason not to list them in the
summary report. Their significance would only be realized a
generation later during the "energy crisis" of the mid-1970s and
by then it was too late to censor the report. One can only
wonder where this research would have led if it funding had
continued over the next thirty years. Or did it continue in
secret?
Of course by now many readers will have already read number and
grasped the significance of number (x) "Rearward impulse
propulsion for vehs and aircraft". Given the nature of Dr. Erb's
other work, it is a safe bet that this "impulse propulsion" was
not of the jet or rocket nature. In fact there remains little
doubt that this propulsion was, in fact, field propulsion. Dr.
Erb was experimenting on means to apply forward motion using
rearward impulse propulsion to aircraft and "vehs" (vehicles).
If this is not the smoking gun for German experiments in field
propulsion saucers, it is at least a hint that there is a gun.
The Smoking Gun: An F.B.I. Report
That is right, Fox Mulder was not the first F.B.I. agent to
believe in UFOs. The files in question are F.B.I. file numbers
62-83894-383, 62-838994-384 and 62-83894-385. Their date is
11/7/57 to 11/8/57. They deal with a Polish immigrant, then
living in the United States, who reported his wartime experience
to the Bureau hoping it might throw some light on UFO sightings
seen in Texas at about this time.
