by Jenny Randles

s/t: The Incredible UFO Cover-up at Bentwaters MATO Air Base
The UFO case portrayed on tv's "Unsolved Mysteries"
Over a period of a week between Xmas & New Year's l980, USA & UK NATO forces as well as police & civilians were involved in a mystery the likes of which is unparalleled. A weird craft landed in Rendlesham Forest, aliens were seen in a beam of light beneath the ship, a commanding officer of the US Forces communicated with the beings, photos & films were made, high radiation levels were obtained, trees were damaged & the lives of many of those involved were shattered. This case included hints of Star Wars technology, mind control, harassment of military witnesses, the silencing of a US Senator & a variety of paranormal aspects, which place this in a league all of it's own. AKA the Bentwaters Case, it's one of the most documented but controversial in the history of UFOlogy. It's the case where joint USA/UK NATO personel were involved in an encounter with an off-the-earth craft. It's told in a dramatic & exciting manner that only Jenny Randles can do.

Reviews

[Erik Graff · Rating 3 out of 5]

I read this book while visiting with Michael Miley, its owner, at about the time I also read Randles' UFO Retrievals and Larry Warren's Left at East Gate--another, supposedly first-hand, account of the Rendelsham Forest events. Compared to Warren, this is a shorter book and less compelling as it is derivative. However, given the information available at the time, Randles' book covers more angles. There is reason to believe Warren lied. Randles, however credulous, is sincere. There is something to the Rendlesham case, but not, I suspect, as much as either Warren or Randles make of it.

I really enjoyed this book looking telling one of the most famous UFO cases of the 1980s at Bentwaters Nato Airbase. In a very gripping diary like style the author is summing up the evidence. Then we come across airmen encountering the UFO, eyewitnesses tell their story, some secrets are hidden... what really happened at that place? If you want to read about a spectacular UFO sighting this is your book. Has that 80s flair I absolutely enjoyed. Can't say what really happened there but liked this book. Really recommended if you want to have some frightening hours...

This could serve to almost all books from Jenny Randles. The investigation and how the case is presented is always great, however when the "explaining" comes about what you have is obfuscation and silly problematizations. This haven't aged well.
