Rob has an undergraduate degree in physics and spent his career at the US Patent and Trademark Office working on intellectual property in a number of areas, most importantly in aeronautics and astronautics. (Ironically, he said since the latter includes circular aircraft, he can state he worked on flying saucers for the government.) His UFO involvement goes back to 1968 during what he called his larval stage, when ongoing sightings and the University of Colorado UFO study permanently nailed his attention. Once he arrived in the DC area with the PTO, he joined the Fund for UFO Research and subsequently was elected to the executive committee of that organization. Around 2006 as the Fund wound down due to the rise of the Internet and other factors (it still exists as an organization, however, although at the moment it's largely dormant), he was asked to join MUFON's board of directors, and continues to serve there to this day.

The Kingman UFO Crash: A Controversial Claim
The Kingman UFO crash is a controversial alleged incident that purportedly occurred in Kingman, Arizona, in 1953. The claim suggests that an extraterrestrial spacecraft crashed in the area, and that the wreckage was recovered by the U.S. government.  
Key points about the claim:
Alleged crash site: The crash is said to have happened near Paradise Valley, just outside of Kingman.   

Government involvement: According to proponents, the U.S. Air Force responded to the incident and recovered the wreckage.

Leaked documents: The claim is often supported by references to leaked government documents that allegedly confirm the crash.  


-Lack of official confirmation: Despite the claims, there is no official confirmation from any government agency, and many experts remain skeptical.
The controversy:

• Lack of evidence: There is no concrete physical evidence to support the claim, such as photographs or eyewitness testimonies that have been independently verified.
• -Inconsistencies: The details of the incident and the leaked documents often vary, making it difficult to establish a consistent narrative.
• -Government secrecy: Some argue that the government's alleged involvement in covering up the incident is a common theme in UFO lore, and that it's difficult to distinguish between fact and fiction.

Conclusion:
While the Kingman UFO crash remains a popular topic among UFO enthusiasts, there is no definitive evidence to support the claim. The lack of official confirmation and the inconsistencies in the available information make it a subject of ongoing debate and speculation.

Kevin M. Day is a 21-year Navy veteran. Serving his entire career in San Diego and Hawaii, he completed 8 Western Pacific Deployments and visited many of the countries that touch the sea between the West Coast of the United States and the Middle East. Retired from active duty in November 2007, he works as a Systems Engineer from his home in Phoenix, Arizona. He is pursuing in Master of Science degree in Systems Engineering and writes short stories in his spare time. His book is Sailor’s Anthology with is a fictionalized account of the NIMITZ TIC TAC UFO encounter that happened in November 2004 off the coast of San Diego. In 2008 when he wrote the story, many involved were still in active duty. He chose to fictionalize the historical record in the effort to protect the identities of those still serving. When he tried to tell others his story, he could tell that nobody really believed him or they believed there had to be a more prosaic explanation. Not knowing what else to do, he wrote the short stories and self-published them in the Library of Congress to hide in plain sight what has now become contemporaneous evidence of the actual event. He hoped that if the TIC TAC encounter became public knowledge, his book might serve as evidence now. The plan worked. He says that you can now hold a piece of history.

Kevin D. Randle has, for more than thirty-five years, studied the UFO phenomena in all its various incarnations. Training by the Army as a helicopter pilot, intelligence officer and military policeman, and by the Air Force as both an intelligence officer and a public affairs officer, has provided Randle with a keen insight into the operations and protocols of the military, their investigations into UFOs, and into a phenomenon that has puzzled people for more than a century. Randle's educational background is as diverse as his military experience. As an undergraduate at the University of Iowa, he studied anthropology. Graduate work included journalism, psychology and military science at the University of Iowa, California Coast University and the American Military University. He has both master and doctoral degrees in psychology and a second master degree in the Art of Military Science. During his investigations, Randle has traveled the United States to interview hundreds of witnesses who were involved in everything from the Roswell, New Mexico crash of 1947, to the repeated radar sightings of UFOs over Washington, D.C. in 1952, to the latest of the abduction cases. Randle was first writer to review the declassified Project Blue Book files while they were still housed at Maxwell Air Force Base and before they were redacted, among the first to report on animal mutilations and among the first to report on alien abductions. He also was the first to report the alien home invasions and among the first to suggest humans working with the aliens. Randle has written extensively on UFOs beginning in 1973 with articles in various national magazines. He had published many books about UFOs starting with The UFO Casebook in 1989 and continuing with Crash in 2010. Randle was away from his UFO studies while recalled to active duty with the Army in Iraq from 2003 to 2004. He recently retired from the Iowa Army National Guard as a lieutenant colonel. - www.KevinRandle.blogspot.com

David Rudiak has a bachelor's in physics and a doctor of optometry from the University of California, Berkeley plus graduate training in biophysics and neurophysiology. He has done scientific research and published papers on brain wave recording to visual stimuli and stimulation of the brain with magnetic stimulators.
In Ufology, his main area of expertise is the alleged Roswell saucer crash of 1947, which he has been studying since1994. He is perhaps best known for his work on reading the telex photographed in Gen. Roger Ramey's hand as Ramey tried to debunk the Roswell crash as a weather balloon. Ramey's memo mentions "THE VICTIMS OF THE WRECK" and dealing with something "IN THE ‘DISC’" (perhaps “CADAVERS”), words and phrases which he and others consider to be smoking gun proof that a saucer crash really happened and bodies were recovered. 

He has been a speaker at the Aztec UFO conference in 2005, discussing the Ramey memo, the Ozark UFO conference in 2003 on the memo and in 2007 discussing his analysis of the 1994 Nellis military UFO video, the 2009 and 2012 Roswell UFO conferences again discussing the memo and how the military ran a debunkery campaign in 1947 against Roswell and the flying saucer wave.  He has been interviewed for various UFO/Roswell TV documentaries.

He has also done extensive research on the Socorro/Lonnie Zamora UFO sighting of 1964, proving, e.g., that it couldn’t have been any sort of balloon because historical wind data make it impossible.  He has also extensively researched the 1950 McMinville, Oregon/Paul Trent photos, disproving claims that it was a “truck mirror” suspended from overhead power lines.  In contrast, his analysis of another famous UFO photo case, Rex Heflin/Santa Ana, CA from 1965, showed that shadow and camera position evidence strongly pointed to a hoax.
