also said that Mr. Callahan told him about the C130 (SAC Fr Military flight) and Alaska Airlines Sighting of unidentified air traffic that occurred on January 29, 1987. He did not say if the revelation about the C130 occurred at the same time as the review of the JAL1628 material. A regional inquiry by this office has revealed that the only investigative material forwarded out of this region prior to the completion of the investigation and the coordinated release of materials by the public affairs office, was the Material sent to Mr. Harvey B. Safeer, (ATS-1), and Mr. David F. Tnomas (ASF-120) by the Alaskan Region Air Traffic Division. Although embarrassing, this particular breach of policy was not as damaging to the agency because it was related to the Sighting of an "unidentified flying object". If this had been an aviation accident involving a major air carrier with fatalities it would have created monumental problems for the public affairs office.
