THE INVISIBLE ENEMY EXPOSED

from ULTRAFREE · host Drea de Matteo

Sergeant David Crete is a veteran of the United States Air Force. He joined in 1983 and entered its Security Police Academy with the goal of becoming an Air Force Security Policeman. He was quickly promoted to Senior Red Rope, the highest-ranking student in his class, in charge of 129 fellow trainees. Upon graduation, Airman First Class Crete was hand-picked for a four-year special assignment to the newly created 4461st Security Police Squad that would provide operational security for all of the Air Force’s new, top-secret F117-A stealth aircraft. The planes, known only as “the resource,” were based at the Tonopah Test Range (TTR), a highly classified weapons testing site in Nevada. Like the legendary Area 51, the TTR officially did not exist. As a part of what, at that time, was the largest Black Operation in Air Force history, Dave’s mission was to protect the resources and their base against all threats at all costs. After three and a half years of providing F117-A security at TTR and undisclosed locations around the world, a severe knee injury forced Dave to transfer to Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas, Nevada where he served the remainder of his commitment. He received his Honorable Discharge in 1989 and is still actively involved in the 4461st veteran’s support group. In this revealing & heartbreaking conversation with Drea, ULTRAFREEDOM FIGHTER Dave Crete, As Chairman of an organization known as The Invisible Enemy, leads the fight for the thousands of military personnel who worked on the Nevada Test and Training Range and suffered, or died, from exposure to toxic radiation and materials from decades of nuclear weapons testing. They are working with Congress to enact legislation that guarantees the comprehensive free medical treatment and just financial compensation these victims and their families deserve.
