The Pentagon undermined a whistleblower’s claim about a secret government program he says has recovered crashed UFOs and reversed their technology.
David Charles Grusch, a decorated Air Force veteran, told NewsNation that they are “retrieving engineering vehicles of non-human origin, call it spacecraft if you like, non-human vehicles of exotic origin that have landed or crashed.
“Well, of course, if you’re recovering something that’s landed or crashed…sometimes you come across dead pilots and believe it or not, as fantastic as that sounds, it’s true,” Grusch said.
Susan Gough, a spokesperson for the Department of Defense, told Fox News Digital in an email Tuesday that there is no “verifiable information to support the claims.”

Gough is the spokesperson for the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), a section of the DOD tasked with investigating and identifying Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), a government-created phrase used in instead of UFOs.
“To date, AARO has not uncovered any verifiable information to substantiate claims that programs related to the possession or reverse engineering of extraterrestrial material existed in the past or currently exist,” Gough said.

Gough also said the AARO, in conjunction with the Office of the General Counsel and Air Force Office of Special Investigations, has established “a secure process” for people to come forward with information.
“AARO welcomes the opportunity to speak with any former or current government employee or contractor who believes they have information relevant to the historical review,” Gough said.

At NASA’s public hearing on UFOs last week, AARO director Sean Kirkpatrick said his office is investigating more than 800 cases, but only 2-5% of cases are “truly abnormal.”
That revelation pales in comparison to Grusch’s shocking statements about the decades-long secret UFO retrieval program, first reported by The Debrief.

Grusch, 36, is a former combat officer in Afghanistan who served the National Reconnaissance Office as their representative to Congress’s Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force from 2019-2021.
On Monday, he filed a whistleblower complaint with Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) about classified information he says proves that partial fragments and intact vehicles have been recovered by the U.S. government, its allies and defense contractors, according to The report. The letter. .
The recoveries have been determined by analysis to be “of exotic origin (non-human intelligence, either extraterrestrial or unknown origin) based on the vehicle morphologies and material science testing and the possession of unique atomic arrangements and radiological signatures,” Grusch said.
“We’re not talking prosaic origins or identities,” Grusch said of the information he presented to Congress and the ICIG. “The material includes intact and partially intact vehicles.”

Many senior and former intelligence officers, many of whom he had known throughout most of his career, began to confide in him, providing documents and other “evidence” that they were part of a secret craft recovery program in which the UAP Task Force “did not was read in,” Grusch claimed during a separate interview with NewsNation.
“We are certainly not alone,” he said. “The data quite empirically indicates that we are not alone.”

Grusch told The Debrief that “legacy programs” of UFOs have long been hidden within “multiple agencies nesting UAP activities in conventional covert access programs without proper reporting to various oversight authorities.”
On Tuesday, Fox News Digital spoke to three different people — two experts and a journalist — who supported Grusch’s claims.

Jeremy Corbell, an investigative reporter and documentary filmmaker who was the only civilian named at Congress’ historic UFO hearing in May 2022, said “everything” is true.
Grusch said beginning in 2022, he began providing hours of classified classified information, transcribed into hundreds of pages, including specifics on the materials recovery program, to Congress.
“Individuals in these UAP programs approached me in my official capacity and expressed concerns about a variety of wrongdoings, such as illegal contracting against the Federal Acquisition Regulations and other crimes and withholding information from a qualified industrial base and academia, Grusch said. The debriefing.

While specifics, such as the locations of recovery and program names, remain secret, and no physical materials have been provided to Congress, several current members of the recovery program have since spoken to the inspector general’s office and the information in Grusch’s complaint confirmed.
“His claim regarding the existence of a terrestrial arms race that has been unfolding among the rosa for the past 80 years, targeting reverse engineering technologies of unknown origin, is fundamentally correct, as is the undeniable realization that at least some of these technologies of unknown origin come from nonhuman intelligence,” Karl Nell, a retired army colonel who worked with Grusch on the UAP Task Force, told The Debrief.

Per protocol, Grusch notified the Department of Defense of the information he intended to disclose to The Debrief, and the Pentagon approved those intended on-the-record statements for public release in April — just days before Grusch announced the government left.
