Lt Colonel Wendelle Stevens (ret. USAF) first became involved  in the UFO issue back in the summer of 1947 when he was assigned by the  U.S. Army\/Air Force to Anchorage, Alaska. He was part of a classified  project involving data collection of UFO sightings in the Arctic Circle.  He was involved in debriefing pilots who witnessed UFOs landing on  Arctic ice fields, and passing along radar, film and photographic  evidence to more senior Air Force authorities. What he learned during  his classified duties impressed him enough for his interest in UFOs to  become a life long passion. After his retirement in 1963 as a Lt  Colonel, Stevens dedicated his time to researching claims of  extraterrestrial contact from around the world. He traveled to many  countries to learn at first hand whether individual claims of  extraterrestrial contact were genuine. Along the way, he amassed the  world\u2019s largest private collection of photos, testimonies and files  concerning alleged claims of human extraterrestrial contact. <br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Cont: <a href=\"http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/2ujerhy\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/2ujerhy<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">or <a href=\"http:\/\/news.exopoliticsinstitute.org\/index.php\/archives\/412\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/news.exopoliticsinstitute.org\/index.php\/archives\/412<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Examiner.com &amp; ExoNews.ws &#8211; September 8, 2010] (Then) Major Wendelle Stevens at Wright Patterson AFB, Dayton, Ohio Photo: UFO Photoarchives The world\u2019s foremost authority on alleged cases of direct human contact with extraterrestrial life passed away on Tuesday, September 7 at the age of 87.
