Kudos to Duane Tudahl & John Greenewald Jr. for “raising the bar” in regards to television productions broaching the subject of UFOs; no smoke & mirrors, no organ music and no “eerie English accented” narrator to be found!

Quite frankly, it wouldn’t take much to be at the “top of the proverbial heap” given the amount of ilk produced on the subject; however, Tudahl’s efforts can be compared to “any” quality investigative/research production on “any” subject in my view. It’s quite refreshing to watch a program on the “UFO phenomenon” that takes a sober look at the matter at hand, less the snorts, guffaws and the occasional rib poking.

Along with the pragmatic presentations of the various episodes to date, is the obvious in-depth research devoted to the end product; such is the case for their latest offering, “Hangar 18: The UFO Warehouse.”

This episode asks the question “is the government hiding ‘crashed UFOs’ beneath Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio?” It premiered Monday night on the “History Channel,” repeated Tuesday night, and for those that missed it; you can see it again this coming Sunday night at 6:00 pm (eastern time).

Whether you’re an abecedarian, or a seasoned researcher, this show will keep you glued to your seat!

Tudahl methodically advances the concept of multiple “crashed UFOs,” starting with the well-known “Roswell case,” but also injects details about other lesser known (to the public), albeit significant events; one in particular is the “Aztec Incident” of 1948. Businessman, and Ufologist Scott Ramsey was interviewed about the event, as he has devoted almost “20 years” to its investigation.

Seasoned researchers, Stanton Friedman & Dennis Balthaser also contributed to the show indicating that their respective research has often pointed to Wright-Pat.



De-classified documents dating as far back as 1947 are a main staple of the show, as well as declarations from former base employees and military personal. In particular, “Capt. Robert Collins” (USAF Ret.) former Air Force Intelligence Officer (Chief Analyst in theoretical Physics) at the Foreign Technology Division (FTD) now NASIC, Wright-Pat gives his views about crashed UFOs, and their occupants ending up at the base.

This show also includes some “never-before published” evidence, including “deathbed declarations” (Marion Magruder) as well as the “oral interview” of “June Crain,” former clerk/typist at Wright-Pat who admittedly violated her security oath in discussing her knowledge of crashed UFOs and their occupants.

Much is devoted to the constructs of Wright-Pat including the infamous “Hangar 18,” as well as background information regarding The “Foreign Technology Division (FTD),” the “Air Materiel Command” in addition to former “Top Secret Projects, Moon Dust & Silver Bug”; Air Force & Space historians were called upon for their familiarity in these matters.

Skeptical points of view were also put forth; however, in my opinion, alongside the collection of data in support of crashed “ET craft,” it was rather weak!

The fore mentioned highlights are just the tip of the iceberg for this episode—you will not be disappointed!

Finally, the efforts of Duane Tudahl don’t go un-noticed in the UFO community; most seasoned researcher/investigators don’t put much stock into “new programs” on the topic, having been disappointed so many times in the past with amateur production and poor research; however, in this instance Ufologists, and enthusiasts alike are sitting up and taking notice—your efforts are appreciated and most needed—keep up the good work!
