Robert Salas is a highly regarded witness to the 1967 UFO encounters at Malmstrom AFB. He has been a researcher and speaker on the UFO phenomenon at nuclear weapons bases since 1994. He is the co-author of the book Faded Giant with James Klotz and published in 2005 which deals specifically with the 1967 missile/UFO incidents at Malmstrom AFB. Robert Salas graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy and spent seven years on active duty from 1964 to 1971. He also held positions at Martin Marietta, Rockwell International and spent 21 years at the FAA as an aircraft structures certification engineer. While an officer in the Air Force, he held positions as a weapons controller, drone pilot, missile launch officer, as well as an engineer on the Titan III missile program. He will present revealing evidence of historical UFO incidents at Malmstrom AFB. On the mornings of March 16, 1967 and March 24, 1967 --- 10 nuclear missiles had become simultaneously non-operational at two different launch facilities immediately after guards reported UFOs hovering above the facilities. Salas will include compelling evidence of these events confirming how the Air Force, in collusion with the Condon Committee, covered up these incidents. Mr. Salas will also discuss the recent press conference held on September 27, 2010 in Washington DC, which he co-sponsored. At this crucial and significant event, seven ex-military officers publicly disclosed their own encounters with UFOs at nuclear weapons bases.
