“The small, strange-looking creatures were humanoid in shape and appeared similar to those described by alleged witnesses at the well-known Roswell site,” he explained. “They all had large heads, large eyes, slight torsos, arms, and legs. They did not appear to be of earthly origin.”
McClelland noted Onizuka saying the video “may have been a test” by the Air Force on the servicemen “to see how they reacted.”
He recalled the late astronaut wondering, “Perhaps it was a planned USAF psychological test. NASA may have evaluated it in my selection as an astronaut in 1978. You know, what would my reaction be if I actually saw an alien?”
Onizuka said after the video played, the group was returned to their tasks and were not allowed to discuss what they saw.
Sadly, McClelland said he and Onizuka had plans to meet and discuss the video further, but never got the chance because of the 1986 disaster.
