The following items are for internal use orily and are not available for distribution to the public.
These concern internal management and procedures for forwarding UFO reports to the appropriate
agency. The Air Force has no objection to persons visiting Air Force bases and reading them:
1. Air Force Regulation 80-17
2. JANAP 146E
The Air Force has no films or photographs that indicate our planet has been visited by extra-
terrestrial vehicles. Photographs that have been submitted for evaluation in conjunction with UFO
reports have undergone intensive photographic analyses and none have provided evidence that sub-
Stantiate the presence of extraterrestrial vehicles. Many widely circulated photographs have never
been submitted to the Air Force for comprehensive analyses. The Air Force returns all original
photographs and negatives to the owners upon completion of analyses. }
The Air Force possesses only record copies, and thus does not have for distribution outdated
reports on Project SIGN, Project GRUDGE, or Blue Book Special Report No. 14. Copies can be made
by the Project Blue Book Information Office at the expense of the request: yw at a rate of twenty-five
cents per page. Project Blue Book Special Report No. 14 contains 323 pages; Project SIGN, 44 pages;
