The Mutual UFO Network is here to help you

The rear of Letterkenny
Army Depot

Three large hangers leading to an underground hanger was active in the 1990s. In the 1990s, people could walk up to the large hanger door. After 911, the doors was placed behind two wire fences. Later the doors was taken out. In my opinion, the Black Box Project behind these doors was discontinued. If you look today, the doors are gone and so is the hill that the doors are on. 
 
The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) is an organization that investigates cases of reported UFO sightings. It is one of the oldest and largest UFO investigative organizations in the United States. If you see an object in the sky or people running past your house and they don’t seem to belong on this planet, the police will most likely be unable to help you. This is why we need organizations such as MUFON.

This organization now has more than 3,000 members worldwide, with a majority of its membership base situated in the continental United States. MUFON operates a worldwide network of regional directors for field investigation of reported UFO sightings, holds an annual international symposium, and publishes the monthly MUFON UFO Journal. The stated mission of MUFON is the scientific study of UFOs for the benefit of humanity through investigations, research, and education.

Along with the J. Allen Hynek Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) and the Fund for UFO Research (FUFOR), MUFON is part of the UFO Research Coalition, a collaborative effort by the three main UFO investigative organizations in the US whose goal is to share personnel and other research resources, and to fund and promote the scientific study of the UFO phenomenon.



 Coming home from work at 5:00 AM in the fall of 2005, I saw two crafts in formation that looked something like this. The only difference is that the ships had a rounded nose. They came in from the west and used the Harrisburg Capital dome and the Civil War Museum as a turning point to fly lower and return back to the west. The planes had no marking and made no noise. On the way back out to the west they flew on the deck. This is why Letterkenny came under suspicion as a maintenance base for the Black Box Project. 

Most people do not know that organizations such as MUFON exist. I did not know this until in 2009, I heard a group of Pa. state law enforcement people talking about trying to gain access to Letterkenny and was denied. Having done some research at that base as well as some work, I thought for 10 years that something was wrong at the base. I turned to Internet Explorer to find an organization that could answer my questions about Letterkenny. That is when I found out about MUFON.

How did MUFON begin?

MUFON officially began on May 31, 1969. At that time it was known as the Midwest UFO Network. As it outgrew the Midwestern state boundaries to become a world class UFO organization, the name was changed to Mutual UFO Network. That allowed the acronym MUFON to remain as the organization matured. Allen Utke, Associate Professor of Chemistry at Wisconsin State University was selected as the first MUFON Director. A year later Walter H.Andrus, Jr., replaced Dr. Utke as the MUFON Director, a position he held until 2000 when he retired and John F. Schuessler took over as International Director. John retired in November 2006 and James Carrion became the International Director. Clifford W. Clift, Jr. took over in February 2010.

MUFON Scientific Training

If you think that you would like to be a MUFON Field Investigator, here are the 4 steps that you must take be part of the team. The cost to be a MUFON Field Investigator is $35 per year for a monthly magazine. You must buy the field investigator manual and take an open book test. It costs $50. Here are the 4 steps to become a MUFON Field Investigator.


Step 1:

"The first step to become a Field Investigator is to join or renew your membership with MUFON. Only members in good standing can achieve Field Investigators status".

Step 2:

At the top of MUFON’s Home Page is “Find a Chapter.” Please access this and find your state and contact your state director. Talk with your state director and let him/her know that you are interested in becoming a field investigator. This will give you a chance to ask questions and allow the state director to thank you for your interest, ask questions, and be your contact person if you require further information. This is a first requirement. There may be times when a state director is not available, so after several tries please contact Steve Hudgeons, Director of Investigations at: doi@mufon.com.

Purchase a copy of the MUFON Field Investigator's manual at Investigator Manual. To ensure that only competent investigators conduct witness interviews, on-site investigations, and collateral contacts with public agencies and others, formal Field Investigator training is essential. The MUFON Field Investigator's Manual is the basic reference for training. All trainees must possess an original copy of the Manual and become completely familiar with its contents.

Step 3:

Self study the MUFON Field Investigator Manual or attend a training class conducted by your local chapter (if available). You can find your local chapter at http://www.mufon.com/MapPages/MapPage.html by clicking on your state. Then complete the open book MUFON Field Investigator's exam, a copy of which is included in the Field Investigator's manual. Send your completed exam for grading to the address listed on the exam. Also, please make sure you either email a professional portrait photo of yourself (.jpg format 448H X 336W pixels at 300dpi) to hq@mufon.com or by mail to MUFON, 262 Wilmer Ave. Cincinnati, OH. 45226. Please include your name and MUFON ID #.

In order to be promoted to the position of Field Investigator, every member must achieve a favorable score on the MUFON Field Investigator's Exam (passing overall score of at least 80%). The purpose of administering the exam is to evaluate the individual's practical knowledge in respect to both potential UFO and IFO (identifiable flying object) reports from the public. The exam consists of one hundred questions in twelve specific areas: light and optics; sound; electromagnetic properties; measurements; physical traces; photography; radio and radar; celestial objects; atmosphere and

Before engaging in actual investigation stemming from a UFO report, the Field Investigator Trainee needs a thorough grounding in the following areas:

• Investigative Ethics. Most importantly, the Trainee must understand and adhere to the tenet of anonymity (withholding witness identifiers from persons who are not part of the UFO report investigation or its evaluation within MUFON).

• Interviewing Methods. Preparation, controlling the setting, the sequence of obtaining a complete account, recognizing sensory perceptions, analyzing witness body language, active listening, interpreting the oral account, and drawing conclusions are all vitally important.

• Collateral Contacts. In a given circumstance, the Trainee must be aware of which public officials and/or others to contact in order to potentially resolve the report as a misperception, determine the person’s reliability as a witness, or identify others who may have witnessed and reported the same event.

• Technical Background. A working knowledge should be conveyed to the Trainee on the subjects of weather anomalies, astronomy, conventional aircraft (especially lighting configurations), space satellites, photographic equipment and methods, and the soil sciences.

• Back Ground Check. MUFON will conduct a criminal "Back Ground" check on all applicants prior to issuance of a MUFON Field Investigator designation. If MUFON determines the Back Ground check is not acceptable to MUFON, the Field Investigator designation will not be issued to the applicant.

Step 4:

Although it is not required, it is highly recommended that once you pass your exam and achieve Field Investigator status that you accompany a current experienced MUFON Field Investigator on one or more live investigations before attempting an investigation on your own. Please contact your MUFON State Director to coordinate mentoring opportunities.

You can find your State Director’s contact information at the MUFON directory map (click on your state). http://mufonpa.com/wp1/?page_id=583

As you can see, MUFON is a very scientific organization. It is not an organization that sits around and talks about UFOs and aliens. They actually do scientific research in the UFO science field.
