The Day After Roswell

Really informative

There are several issues with this book. First, if the author were dedicated to the military and thought it actually protected us from aliens, why is he breaking his code of silence now? Secondly, the idea that we can somehow “win” against an entity that is able to cross untold light years to get here is, patently absurd. That said, I met J. Alan Hynek, the former director of Project Blue Book and asked him about a famous case in SW Michigan that was attributed to “swamp gas” II happened to know a person who was one of the witnesses(. Hynek told me “if you believe the swamp gas story I’ve got a bridge in Brooklyn for you”. So, who knows what’s going on? I’d be dubious about the claims of this author though.

Great book. Had no idea. So glad a few who were involved got to tell their stories.

I saw a short interview of this gentleman on television so decided to read his book based on the fact he had (has anyone ever fact checked it?) a military career. If this book is to be taken at face value then this gentleman’s life and career was a cross between Walter Mitty & Forrest Gump. The use of the words I, me, we, us & our permeate the book as this gentleman is responsible for getting the space program to the moon, solving the Cuban Missile Crisis, taking on the CIA, creating the personal computing revolution and the development of SDI. In other words (or actually his words) he created the world in which we live and also saved us from the aliens. The government may have been involved in a cover up. The government may have outsourced alien technology to the private sector to create the society we now live in, BUT any credibility of the writer is massively dismissed by his fantastic daydreams of his personal triumphs where he is at the center of every story as the hero.

Since so much took place while i was still young I can now understand what really happened. I believe the truth should be told so that we can thank our military for keeping us protected. The real power is in the truth. I’ve personally witnessed UFO’s. I can rest easier tonight. Fantastic book. Ed. M.

excellent narrative ….im in.

This was a fascinating read of a story that should not have been classified in the first place. I get sick and tired of the paternalistic behavior of our governmental officials who treat us like children or idiots. I wish Col. Corso and others had spoken out much sooner. I do not recall hearing about this book when it first came out and I think it should have created quite a stir. As a teen-ager in 1956-57, I witnessed a UFO hover silently for a minute or so in the summer sky beyond my open upstairs window in Indianapolis, then disappear in a flash, making no sound whatsoever. I have been a believer ever since and hope that before I die all will be revealed. I feel cheated by our government, but meanwhile I will continue to read books like this one and watch TV shows like Ancient Alien. ETs are out there folks, as are their space ships, so let’s gang-up on our politicians and demand that the “secret” files be open. And while they’re at it, demand that ALL of the un-redacted John F Kennedy assassination files be released too.

This book was an interesting take on the exponential growth of technology since the end of World War II. The book is intelligently written and laces many facets of history with things that contest our terrestrial perceptions. The book is written as (Rey) Colonel Corso's career progression as an Army intelligence officer attached to and one time director of Army Foreign Intelligence R&D. It reveals to the reader that, through an unprecedented and albeit hard to believe, turn of events led to a recovery of an extraterrestrial flying vehicle. The implications of what that would mean to the human inhabitants of a world caught up in the political stalemate of the Cold War and how a government coverup lead to paradigm shift in our technological capabilities.

Released in 1999 this drivel is supposed to be an exposé on the Roswell crash but the author admits that he wasn't there and then points to his secret exposure to artifacts supposedly found at the crash site as his evidence of involvement. All of this wondrous evidence was in use prior to 1999 and the author attempts to relate that he had access to these alien technologies in the late '60's - fiber optics, night vision goggles and cpu's. What a load! Can I have my $8.00 back please?

This book was awesome. If you haven't read it do so you won't regret it.
