UAP Crossfire

On this powerful episode, we sit down with retired U.S. Air Force Technical Sergeant John F. Burroughs, a central figure in one of the most compelling UFO encounters in military history—the Rendlesham Forest Incident of December 1980.
Burroughs recounts the chilling events of that Christmas night while stationed at RAF Bentwaters in England, when a routine patrol turned into a close encounter with a mysterious craft emitting intense light and radiation. What followed would alter the course of his life: severe health complications, years of denial from military institutions, and a groundbreaking legal battle that culminated in the first-ever VA disability award for injuries sustained during a confirmed UAP incident.
We explore how official denial and classified programs kept the truth buried—and why Burroughs continues to fight for accountability, not just for himself, but for countless other veterans with similar, unacknowledged experiences.
In an exclusive interview, Burroughs also shares insights from his op-ed published in the Roswell Daily Record titled “UAP Injuries Are Real. Veterans Are Being Ignored. Congress Can’t Keep Hiding Behind Classified Doors.” He outlines the urgent need for medical transparency, Congressional action, and an end to secrecy surrounding the human cost of UAP encounters.
This is more than a UFO story—it’s a demand for justice.
Topics Covered:
    Firsthand account of the Rendlesham Forest encounter
    Long-term medical effects from radiation exposure
    Government stonewalling and the fight for VA recognition
    Project Condign and the UK’s hidden UAP research
    Why Congressional silence continues to endanger veterans
    A call to action for transparency and truth
Don’t miss this gripping and deeply personal conversation with a veteran who refused to stay silent.

Tune in to UAP Crossfire this week as the team dives into the latest UAP-related news, and there is plenty of it.  A new whistleblower is taking cyberspace by storm by claiming that we have no idea about the extent to which we are being manipulated by the powers that be, and their alien influencers. Cobra is back from a mission overseas and Don has a new computer (the guys have a pool going on how long before it crashes). Watch closely as Chris masters looks of incredulity. Dan finally finished Luis Elizondo's book and has thoughts.  It's a rollicking dive into the deep end of the pool of paranormal on this week's UAP Crossfire.
