Background
Background
On November 17, 1957, an Air Force vehicle with two officers arrived at the home of UFO witness Olden Moore in Montville, Ohio. They took him to Washington, D.C. for extensive questioning.
Transport and Accommodation
The journey went by car to an aircraft, which stopped briefly at Wright-Patterson AFB to pick up one officer and set down another. In the capital, Moore was housed in a building that served as a federal court — possibly the US Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces.
Interrogations and Surveillance
Over several days he was watched around the clock, including while sleeping. The officials showed him slides of UFO photographs and a film taken from a military aircraft.
Conclusion
At the end, Moore had to sign a document binding him to silence. The case points to military efforts to control UFO witnesses (UFOEv, p. 114; Clark III 773; Clark IV 854).
