A retired naval officer said he saw a metal sphere in Afghanistan similar to the one in a video during the Senate hearing last month, but there is no safe way for him to come forward.
“I’ll be honest with you. I’d love to tell you everything in detail, but I’m not willing to go to jail for that,” said a retired senior Navy chief, whose name is being withheld out of fear. of consequences.
“I’m restricted because of security agreements, so they need a way to make submissions,” he told Fox News Digital.
Not having a safe way to report potential UFOs was a glaring mistake in the eyes of two lawmakers on both sides of the aisle following the April 19 All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) UFO hearing before the Senate Subcommittee for armed forces on Emerging Threats and Opportunities.

AARO is an office within the US Office of the Secretary of Defense that investigates UAPs – unidentified anomalous phenomena – which is the government-created word for UFOs.
Bureau chief, Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, showed the second video clips (seen above) to lawmakers and said, “This is essentially all the data we have from this event.”

“It’s going to be pretty much impossible to fully identify that just based on that video,” he said, so it’s considered an “unsolved case.”
The retired naval officer said he and other members of the military service saw a similar metal sphere from an airborne landing pad in Afghanistan in the early 2000s.

“There’s quite a bit of gray here, because the client we were working for at the time kept all of the material collected,” the naval officer told Fox News Digital.
“But I know where the bodies are buried, not necessarily where the digital data is. I can point them in the right direction.”

Following the April 19 Senate hearing, Senators Mark Warner (D-VA) and Marco Rubio (R-FL) wrote a five-point letter to the DOD, which was shared with Fox News Digital.
One of the arguments was the lack of a safe way for potential UFO witnesses to safely come forward and share their stories.

“To date, we have not seen any attempts to communicate the existence of the secure process to the public,” the senators said in their letter. “We request that you provide us with an update on the plan to disclose the secure process for witnesses to come forward.”
Rubio told Fox News Digital, in an emailed statement through a spokesperson, that Americans are “understandably concerned” about objects in county airspace and near facilities.

“Worse, our government has spent too many years ignoring or downplaying the threat,” Rubio said. “Fortunately, that’s starting to change, but as we saw earlier this year, the defense and intelligence services are still struggling.”
The Florida senator was referring to the Chinese spy balloon and three other UAPs that the Biden administration shot down in February.

“Senior Pentagon leaders said publicly that two of the UAP were almost certainly not balloons, but Congress has not been given the rationale or sensor data to support this unprecedented action,” he said.
“In this case, we shot down several UAPs, and it’s not clear. To this day, we know with confidence what they were.”

He said that not only is the American public “missing information,” but that lawmakers charged with congressional oversight are “denied of critical information.”
“We created the AARO office to handle just such a case; to quickly aggregate and analyze the data and apply the scientific process. We need the (Biden) administration to fully empower the AARO office and comply with the guidelines set forth in the FY23 NDAA.”

“FY23 NDAA” stands for the Fiscal Year 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, which includes clauses about establishing safe avenues for witnesses and whistleblowers to come forward with their stories.
The retired naval officer said what the senators are asking is “probably what I should file.”
