.. . . During a press conference at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C., seven former Air Force officers once stationed at nuclear bases around the country said that not only have UFOs visited Air Force bases, some have succeeded in disabling nuclear missiles stationed there. ."I want the government to acknowledge that this phenomenon exists," said Robert Salas, a former U.S. Air Force Nuclear Launch Officer. "I want the Air Force, the government to come forward and say this is a real phenomenon." But Salas said it's a "falsehood" that UFOs are not a national security threat and claims he speaks from firsthand experience. He was stationed 60 feet underground at the Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana in March 1967, monitoring the launch control center for 10 nuclear missiles when he received a call from a guard above ground. . . . At first Salas didn't pay much attention to the report, he said. But then he received a second phone call. "He calls back about five minutes later and this time he's screaming into the phone. He's very frightened, I can tell by his voice," Salas said. "And he said, 'Sir, I've got all the guards out here, they've got their weapons drawn, we're all looking at an orange or reddish pulsating oval-shaped object. It's about 30 feet in diameter and just hovering above the front gate. " Thinking they were under some kind of attack, Salas said he told the guards to keep it outside the perimeter of the gate. As he alerted the other officer stationed with him underground, he said he noticed that the missiles started going offline. "The missiles started going into 'no go' or unlaunchable condition. They were essentially disabled while this object was overhead," he said. The unidentified object eventually took off ? and the missiles didn't suffer permanent damage ? but he said it took about a day to get the missiles back up and running. . . . "I think it was simply a show. They wanted to shine a light on our nuclear weapons and just send us a message," he said. "My interpretation is the message is get rid of them because it's going to mean our destruction." Other former officers recounted similar stories of unexplained moving lights and odd-shaped flying objects during their time in the service, media reports said. Some said it was difficult to talk about their experiences with friends and family. Leslie Kean, an investigative journalist and author of the new book "UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record," said thousands of pages of documentation support the officers' accounts. She spent the last 10 years researching UFOs and combing through thousands of pages of declassified government material. . . .
