Betty typed this letter to NICAP Director Donald Keyhoe, a USMC Retired Major, on September 26, 1961, days after the Hills' UFO encounter. She borrowed his bookfrom the Portsmouth Public Library. It is the first book she had ever read on UFOs.
NICAP Investigator Walter Webb, an astronomer, investigated the Hills' UFO sighting in mid-October, 1961. This is one important page from his confidential NICAP Report. Barney described the figures he observed with binoculars through the craft's windows as it hovered less than 100 feet in the distance.
Debunkers insist that there were no witnesses to the UFO on September 19, 1961. This is proof of evidence they have chosen to ignore. John Luttrell was an award winning investigative reporter. He learned of the Hills' UFO event through a violation of confidentiality by Betty's friend. He contacted Betty and Barney, but they refused to speak with him. He investigated the case and published his findings in "The Boston Traveler" newspaper. His columns regarding the event were published for five consecutive days in late October 1965. He had found six witnesses. Apparently, others contacted him because he replied to an inquiry from Stanton Friedman as follows. This is compelling evidence. He is now deceased.
