While the description of the weapon Witkowski describes does not sound like a genuine cohered X-ray was achieved (noting its limited operational range and relatively low dosage of radiation), it nonetheless is also possible that the idea of coherence of X-rays and gamma rays was the goal. Again, this means that the concept of coherence predated Roswell as did the first experimental steps towards its realization. There is nothing necessarily extraterrestrial whatsoever about it.
3. Fiber Optics
Then what of fiber optics? Surely this, at least, was so exotic that no terrestrially-based prototypical technology existed in 1947? “Members of the retrieval team who foraged around inside the spacecraft on the morning of the discovery,” Corso states,
Told Colonel Blancard back at the 509th (Bomb group) that they were amazed they couldn’t find any conventional wiring. Where were the electrical connections? They didn’t understand the function of the printed circuit wafers they found, but, even more important, they were completely mystified by the single glass filaments that ran through the panels of the ship.37
So once again off Colonel Corso went to consult with a German Paperclip scientist, Hans Kohler:38
The technology was still very new, Hans Kohler told me during a private briefing in early 1962, but the promise of using light as a carrier of all kinds of signals through single-filament glass strands was holding great promise. He explained that the premise of optical fibers was to have a filament of glass so fine and free of any impurities that nothing would impede the light beam moving along the center of the shaft.39
But unfortunately, at this point here there exists an indicator – a very slight one – that some work along these lines was also underway in Nazi Germany.
There exists a list of special German research projects in radar, homing devices, and so on that describes a project headed a Professor Karolus, based in Leipzig, whose purpose was to investigate the modulation of mercury lighting for the purposes of “light telephony” that would have operated in the infrared band. Nothing more is known about it, but the connection of the project to telephony does raise questions, one that Igor Witkowski himself asks very bluntly: “Could this have referred to some kind of precursor to present day optical fibre telephony?”40
What are we to conclude from all this?
As regards the MAJIC-12 documents examined here, one has indications of a definite pattern of exotic though entirely terrestrial technology, and one that might be under independent or quasi-independent development. And during the period from the end of the war to the early 1960s, only one entity really would have an interest in doing so, a “Nazi International.”
As regards the Corso thesis of Roswell, it is clear that, in two out of the three cases mentioned here - the transistor and the laser – that he adduces were the results of ET seeded technology, there are wartime German antecedents in the technology tree. In the last case – fiber optics – there is a vague reference to “light telephony” that might represent a prototypical technology leading eventually to the modern fiber optic technology.
However, when Corso’s thesis is viewed in conjunction with the MAJIC-12 documents reviewed here, and in conjunction with what is known of wartime German research achievements, his thesis shows itself to be rather weak. Indeed, more documentary substantiation exists for a terrestrial and German origin for some of the technology he cites in support of his thesis, than there exists evidence for its extraterrestrial origin, for which Corso adduces not a shred of evidence other than his stories. Indeed, in these anecdotal stories Corso every now and then includes statements to the effect that our military saw the “German resemblance” in the “ET” technology recovered at Roswell! Unless one is to believe the Nazis’ own Thule Society-inspired belief that the white Aryan race is ultimately of extraterrestrial origin, the indicators seem preponderantly to point to terrestrial, and most probably German origins for the technology.
Finally, the MAJIC-12 documents examined in this chapter either allude indirectly to, or openly assert, the involvement of the shadowy UFO group in the assassination of President Kennedy.
But before leaving the subjects of MAJIC-12, Nazi Paperclip personnel, Roswell, and Colonel Corso, a final word shows how weirdly, and how intimately, they are all connected:
Col. Philip Corso, info source for last year’s book The Day After Roswell, and temporary darling of Ufology, has brought attention to himself with the revelation of a history in spin control and association with right wing extremist elements in the military as well as his former ties to a semi-secret society called the “Shickshinny Knights of Malta”
Before The Day After Roswell was a gleam in the eye of someone at Simon and Schuster, Peter Dale Scott wrote about Corso in Deep Politics and the Death of JFK. In the light of the fact that he is working on another book with Roswell co-author William Birnes (to be entitled The Day After Dallas) it is worth noting that Corso was an investigator involved with the Warren Commission who according to Scott, “built on … anti CIA paranoia by telling his friend and fellow Senate staffer [for segregationist Strom Thurmond] Julien Sourwine, who made sure it was relayed to the FBI, that Oswald was tied to a communist ring inside the CIA, and was doubling as an informant for the FBI.”
….The Shickshinny Knights of Malta was apparently founded by old-guard White Russians who emigrated to the US after the revolution, eventually settling in Shickshinny, Pennsylvania. By the end of the Second World War, the organization had evolved into a haven for mothballed right wing military intelligence personnel. When Corso became involved with the Knights, (circa 1963-64) the organization seemed to operate as an underground think tank and spin factory…. Corso disavows any association with the group.
Perhaps this has little to do with Corso’s present activities, however a few people in the UFO community have expressed the feeling that his claims in Roswell may be the result of a few verifyable (sic) facts diluted with much more mis-or disinformation. If this is true, Corso himself may not be aware of it. In light of the man’s history, this may not be far off the mark, and there is reason to suspect that he may have been called out of retirement to play the role of publicist one last time.41
That Corso was an investigator for the Warren Commission is a direct connection to the JFK assassination, but more important are the allegations of associations with a “White Russian émigré community” that after the war became a “haven for mothballed right wing military intelligence personnel.”
Just whose “mothballed right wing military intelligence personnel” we already know: General Reinhard Gehlen’s Fremde Heere Ost with its myriad of “émigré” front organizations. Just what all this has to do with the assassination of President Kennedy was already briefly touched upon in chapter three, “From Russia with Love,” but now, it is time to go into the detailed connections of German military intelligence, Nazi technology, German money, and the tragic events in Dallas in November of 1963.

24 It is to be noted that the German artist Dellschau, who was intimately connected to the 1890s airship mystery, constantly maintained this continued independent development was in fact the case. In support of this contention these memos should be read in the context of the AMC memos cited earlier, since the Roswell recovery does not evidence a technological basis sufficient to indicate extraterrestrial origin for the vehicle.

“Mae Brussellsprouts:”
Nazi Survival and JFK
“The old war lords are going to come back. (South America) is full of these Nazis!....They will know that is only one kind of people that would do such a thing… that would have to be the Nazis and that is who is in power.” Jack Ruby1
“In this connection it is interesting to note that in May, 1924, when the 700th anniversary of the University of Naples, a University founded by Emperor Frederick II, was celebrated, a crown was found near the sarcophagus of the Emperor in the Cathedral of Palermo with the following inscription:
‘Seinem Kaiser und Helden
Das geheime Deutschland.’
(‘To Their Emperor and Hero, from Secret Germany’)”
Paul Winkler2
After World War Two had ended, the Nazis seemed to have developed a considerable skill and talent for appearing in some very unlikely places doing very unlikely things with some very unlikely people.
Consider, for example, the statement made by famous UFO abductee Barney Hill under hypnosis to his psychiatrist Benjamin Simon:
“BARNEY
(He takes care to be extremely precise.)
There was a row of windows. A huge row of windows. Only divided by struts – or structures that prevented it from being one solid window. Or then – it would have been one solid window. And the evil face on the – (He starts to say “leader.”)
He looks like a German Nazi. He’s a Nazi…”
(There is a questioning tone in his voice.)
DOCTOR
“He’s a Nazi. Did he have a uniform?”
BARNEY
“Yes.”
DOCTOR
“What kind of uniform?”
BARNEY
“He had a black scarf around his neck, dangling over his left shoulder.”3
Then there was Jack Ruby’s odd statement on who was behind the Kennedy assassination, also allegedly made under hypnosis:
The old war lords are going to come back. (South America) is full of these Nazis!...They will know that is only one kind of people that would do such a thing… that would have to be the Nazis and that is who is in power.4
Strangely enough, Ruby, by fingering both South America and Nazis, had his finger on an aspect of the Kennedy assassination that few suspected: surviving Nazi communities in South America and their ongoing quasi-independent existence.
A. J.F.K’s Policies
Regardless of whether one agreed or disagreed with his politics, President John F. Kennedy managed during his short term in office to outline policies that clearly threatened a number of well-entrenched and very powerful interests, interests that many believe to comprise elements of America’s “Establishment” or “secret government”. Kennedy had, for example, circulated a national security memorandum after the Bay of Pigs fiasco that effectively turned all paramilitary and covert operations over to the Pentagon, wresting it from the CIA. He had vowed to “smash the CIA into a thousand pieces.” For those people like Allen Dulles or General Charles Peare Cabell – whose appearance in the MAJIC-12 documents we noted in the previous chapter – Kennedy was taking a direct aim at the fiefdoms of bureaucratic power that they had nurtured since the end of World War Two. And with the memorandum, he had scored a direct hit.
And, after one of the America’s most closely contested elections, Kennedy had won by a narrow margin over Republican incumbent Vice President Richard Nixon. Many maintain that Kennedy won because key counties across the country, like Chicago’s notoriously corrupt Cook county in Illinois, were “delivered” to the Kennedy column by then Mayor Richard Daly and various Mafia contacts. It was a story that was claimed for other hotly contested counties. After assuming office, President Kennedy appointed his brother Robert to be Attorney General, and the Kennedy Administration began to go after organized crime. And with brother Robert heading the Justice Department, yet another powerful enemy was gained besides the intelligence community and organized crime. That enemy was J. Edgar Hoover, Director of the FBI, a man who in the quiet circles of party-going power in Washington, D.C., made no secret of his hatred of the Kennedy administration.
At this point, it is worth pausing to note that of these three potential enemies, two of them would exercise extraordinary influence over the post-assassination Warren Commission, for Allen Dulles, former head of the CIA and dismissed by Kennedy after the Bay of Pigs, would of course become a prominent member of the Commission, doubtless thereby insuring that any CIA connections were buried or at the very minimum, obfuscated in a word-spin of confusion. The other enemy that figured prominently in the outcome of the Commission was, of course, J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI, which exercised inordinate influence over the flow of information and data to the Commission.
As was seen in the previous chapter, however, there are MAJIC-12 documents which – if one accepts their genuineness for the sake of argument – also indicate that Kennedy wanted to internationalize space jointly with the Soviet Union. If one assumes the ex
istence of some covert aspect to either or both of the two countries’ space programs, then this too, would have threatened a good many hidden agendas and entrenched power interests. And in this connection, long before any of the MAJIC-12 documents – whether genuine or not – ever surfaced to see the light of day, the Torbitt document drew its own conclusions about to the space program and a network of highly placed Nazis within NASA. For the Torbitt document, Von Braun’s control of the Defense Industrial Security Command (D.I.S.C.) becomes a symbol of this network of Paperclip scientists, connected in turn to other World War Two Fascists such as Ference Nagy, representing the émigré community that had collaborated with the Nazis, and that subsequently fled Eastern Europe and Communist reprisal after the war, and, via the Gehlen Organization, that set up a network of front organizations in Western Europe and the United States. These two groups – the Paperclip scientists and the Fascist émigré fronts – in turn were connected to a veritable “Murder Incorporated,” the so-called “Permindex” corporation, a company with many of these prominent Fascists, as well as Clay Shaw, on its board of directors. The Torbitt document – long before the Cooper-Cantwheel MAJIC-12 documents were ever released to, or planted in, the UFOlogy community – makes very clear a connection to the Kennedy assassination quickly brushed aside by most assassination researchers: The Nazis.
