Since the end of Project Blue Book, the longest-running systematic government study of UFOs, the United States Air Force has kept the study of unidentified aerial phenomena at arm's length. However, as intelligence agencies and other branches of the military were asked to supply information to the UAP Task Force in advance of the June 2021 ODNI report, how much information - if any - was supplied by the Air Force? 

Joining us to discuss the Air Force and its role in the modern UAP debate is Christopher Mellon, who formerly served for nearly 20 years in the intelligence community. Since retiring from federal service, Mellon has appeared in the History Channel TV series UNIDENTIFIED, and in the movie “The Phenomenon." This week, we sit down with Chris Mellon for a discussion about his recent article for The Debrief entitled "Why is the Air Force AWOL on the UAP Issue" here on The Micah Hanks Program.
