The Great Air Raid of LA 1942 #62 - Didn’t Anyone Mention...

What this episode covers

Back in 1942, just months after Pearl Harbor, LA had one of the weirdest nights in history—the Great Air Raid. Sirens wailed, searchlights lit the sky, and anti-aircraft guns fired over 1,400 rounds at… something. Witnesses reported planes, flashing lights, even a giant UFO, but no wreckage or enemy was ever found. The government blamed it on nerves and maybe a weather balloon, but conspiracies about aliens, cover-ups, and secret missions have kept the mystery alive ever since.
