   PART 15   
      
   3.  The reason I know it flew silently is I was present on a   
   number of occasions when it was landing or taking off (I was   
   always taken inside and out of view of the runway at these   
   times) and at no time did I hear anything that sounded like a   
   conventional or any other kind of engine.   
      
   4.  I was working on their ______ several times when they   
   just_______.  However since I was there to work on them I   
   really didn't think anything about it.  Oh yes, they would   
   ___________ again just as suddenly.  Also there were a number   
   of times that I was called out to work on ______ and could   
   not find anything wrong with it.   
      
   5.  On of the men that I knew were "Pilots" was just slightly   
   larger than me.   
      
   6.  Most of the test flights occurred in the daytime rather   
   than at night.   
      
   7.  The radio frequency they used at that time was in the   
   regular commercial VHF band and was a simplex frequency.  At   
   one time I had the Freq. written down but I have no idea now   
   what it was.  Anyway, i really think that someone with a   
   scanner could pick them up if they were to park on the road   
   to the east of the test site and use some kind of directional   
   antenna.   
      
   8.  Before I send this letter I will try to get a USC&GS map   
   of the area and will mark the location of Area 51 on it.   
      
   9.  There was a Radar Station at the north end of the test   
   site near the town of Tonopah, Nevada.  A fellow from my home   
   town of _______,________ was an operator there.  His name is   
   __________  __________ .  We were talking about the test site   
   one day when he mentioned that he was always picking up UFO's   
   over the test site but was told to ignore them.  I remember   
   him telling about one that he picked up on the edge of his   
   RBI on the first revolution was directly overhead on the   
   second pass and was just going off the scope on the third   
   revolution of the antenna.   
      
   10.  For some reason I seem to remember that the Redlight is   
   spelled Redlight i.e. all one word.   
      
   11.  I always had the impression that the flight test area   
   was from Area 51 north because there is a natural valley that   
   runs in that  direction for 200 miles or so.  Also the area   
   to the south was more populated.  Also I entered Area 51 from   
   the north and there were a couple of times that i was   
   questioned about whether I had 'noticed' anything on the way   
   in.   
      
   12.  I was reminded constantly that no matter what I saw I   
   could be in serious trouble if I ever talked about any of it.   
   I can't stress how much how tight the security was, it was   
   almost paranoid.   
      
   13.  I don't think this has anything to do with Redlight, but   
   I remember when I was a kid back in the 40's, on two   
   occasions I saw a story about UFO's included in the weekly   
   Pathe' News.  There was one story about a UFO that had   
   crashed somewhere and another story about a UFO that was   
   found in some farmers barn.  Both of those stories were given   
   the usual news treatment.  The reason that I am mentioning   
   this is that I recently read an article about the entire   
   library of Pathe' movie film being given to an institution of   
   some kind which would make it available to researchers.  I am   
   certain that if these film clips could be located they would   
   be useful.  Realizing that these stories appeared prior to   
   Blue Book and at a time of Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon,   
   there is probably a better than even chance that they can be   
   located by someone willing to spend the time viewing a few   
   hundred hours of old news film.   
      
   14.  More on item #7, the air-to-ground frequencies were in   
   the 200mc range.  I believe there is a standard set of air-to   
   -ground or government frequencies either just above or just   
   below the 220mc ham band and their communications were on   
   those frequencies.   
      
   Well there you  have it ______.  I hope that I have shed some   
   light on some dark areas.  Should any other thoughts come to   
   mind that I feel may be important I will try to catch you on   
   the ____________.  Hopefully if I can get things settled down   
   to a dull roar I will be able to start checking in on a more   
   permanent basis.  Of course, should you have any questions or   
   want further clarification please contact me.

   NOTE...Any information that would identify the sender or   
   recipient of this letter has been deleted in order to protect   
   them.  The original document contains both names and   
   addresses but will be given to no one without their   
   permission.  The reason Len Stringfields name is left in is   
   that he is a known UFO researcher and it cannot hurt him as   
   he was not the sender or receiver.
