AudioBlog: Letters From the Maury Island Principals in the Merseyside UFO Bulletin: Part 2

by Charles Lear, author of “The Flying Saucer Investigators.”In last week’s blog, we looked at some correspondence we came across in the January-February 1969 Merseyside UFO Bulletin between Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Research Association Director Gary Lesley and Maury Island principals, Fred Crisman and Harold Dahl.
