SUMMARY:Online - The Birthplace of the ‘Men in Black’
DESCRIPTION:Harold Dahl’s tragic June 21\, 1947 UFO sighting over Puget Sound is the launch pad for the origins of what we now know as the “ “Men in Black.” Relying upon FBI\, Army and Air Force records\, speaker Steve Edmiston will explore the controversial legacy of “The Maury Island Incident\,” including the detailed investigations by a courageous Tacoma-based FBI Special Agent. The program examines the Maury Island Incident’s tragic aftermath\, the involvement of J.
