He said these Brazilian Air Force guys were scared after days of this. They gave him a piece, a firearm. And so I don't know how this is going to go. But if if shit hits the fan, you've got to be ready to jump in and help defend yourself. And so, you know, that's all I've been waiting for.

This was an investigation where they were collecting samples of blood and tissue from all these people. And, you know, so many of them ended up in hospitals, hundreds of them, most of the in the same hospital. All those records vanished.

The Brazilian Air Force files at the time, the Brazilian government was a military junta. They had taken over and there were reporters that we tracked down. There's one really great guy named Carlos who was on the scene while the investigation was underway. The military reached out to his publication, the biggest newspaper in Brazil, and told him, knock it off.

He kept digging anyway, but they wouldn't publish this stuff anymore. All those files went into a vault somewhere and were put away, and the Brazilian people and the rest of the world didn't get to see it for 20, 25 years, and then they started releasing it. There were a couple of ufologists in there who petitioned the government.

After the military government was gone and the civilian government was in there, they had their own version of a FOIA, and they released some of this stuff, but didn't release all of it. Those files, here's where it leads to Las Vegas.

government. Right here in my backyard, Bigelow and his team, who had the contract for the DIA, sent teams to Brazil multiple times. They got the files. They brought back everything.

But I was friends with these guys and I co-wrote two books with the two guys who managed the program. And the Calaris files were essentially a big part of it. They did studies. They dug into it.
