Former US intelligence officer David Grusch has made bold claims that the US government is hiding information about alien spacecraft and non-human bodies in its possession. He revealed this during a hearing of the Oversight Committee, prompted by his previous statements in June about the government harboring UFOs. When asked if the government has pilots from “crashed crafts,” Grusch confirmed that they have recovered “biologics” from these incidents, clarifying that they were non-human in nature. He asserted that this information comes from individuals with direct knowledge of the issue and disclosed that there have been nearly 12 crash sites of alien craft.
In addition to alleging a cover-up, Grusch accused the government of misusing funds to avoid congressional oversight and claimed he personally faced targeting and retaliation for speaking out. When asked if he knew of anyone harmed in efforts to cover up the extraterrestrial technology, he cautiously admitted to having such knowledge and directed the relevant authorities to investigate.
Grusch was employed at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency until April 2023 and claimed to have learned about the secret program through photographs, official documents, and classified oral testimony from credible sources with a history of service to the country. He became a whistleblower following his discovery but refrained from providing more details about the retaliation due to an ongoing investigation.
During the same hearing, retired US Navy commander David Fravor also testified about his sighting of unexplained anomalous phenomena (UAPs) while serving in the military. Fravor described encountering a UFO in 2014 during a flight off the coast of Virginia Beach, which was so unsettling that the mission was immediately called off. Another retired Navy commander, Graves, also spoke about his own sighting of a strange object.
Grusch’s claims were denied by the Pentagon. Defense Department spokeswoman Sue Gough stated that investigators have not found any verifiable evidence to support the existence of programs related to the possession or reverse-engineering of extraterrestrial materials. However, the statement did not address UFOs that might not be of terrestrial origin.
