The Maury Island UFO Incident: The Story behind the Air Force's first Military Plane Crash (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781493674961)

The Maury Island UFO Incident is a bizarre mystery case spanning several months in the summer of 1947 in the Northwest and involved the Air Force's first military plane crash. This book presents new evidence, new news articles and never seen before photos of the military and the figures involved including Capt. Davidson, 1st Lt. Brown, Harold Dahl and Tacoma Times reporter Paul Lantz. This book presents a first ever interview with a local who was first on the crash scene and a newly discovered news photo of the crash site, believed to be the only photo available of the historical crash and what has been called the "Roswell of the Northwest".The Northwest mystery occurred two weeks before Roswell and involved three facets: Harold Dahl's story of UFOs seen over Maury Island, Kenneth Arnold's sighting of UFOs over Mt. Rainier and the tragic crash of a B-25 Bomber and the deaths of two military intelligence officers. As the Air Force separated from the Army August 1st 1947, this would become the first historical plane crash and fatalities of the Air Force. "When I met Charlette LeFevre and Philip Lipson in 2007, I found them to be enthusiastic researchers who were energetically pursuing and impartially sifting through the facts about the Maury Island incident. This book is the result of their efforts. It presents new evidence and new analysis, and every reader will find it intriguing and informative." - Larry Haapanen, Ph.D., the last UFO investigator for the Fourth Air Force." I just finished the book on the Maury Island incident and loved it. It filled in a lot of gaps for me about that incident, and the chronological framework was very helpful." - Kelly Head, Librarian and UFO researcher.
