- ===========================================================================THE CRUCIBLE <ParaNet Pi> 416-244-9999 - 24Hrs - 12/24/96 *HST*
- (1:223/264)=========================================================================== The following file contains selected excerpts
- from phoneconversations I had with Robert Swan during the month of December.Bill Cooper both supplied me with his name, whereabouts, and "co
- de"by which Robert Swan was to know that it was okay to divulge informationto me regarding his knowledge of what Bill Cooper had discussed w
- ith him. As Bill Cooper did not have Swan's phone number, I had to findthat out for myself. Additionally, Bill has asked that I not p
- rint Swan's address, as he does not want this individual "harassed". For those whoare serious about getting to the truth of the matter, they
- will know howto find this individual. There will be no commentary from myself, as the file shouldspeak for itself. Anything in [ ] b
- rackets will represent clarificationof speech where necessary. Although several calls were made to RobertSwan, I have only included the most
- revelant material from 2 of them here. The purpose of my communicating with Robert Swan was to verifywhether or not Bill Cooper had
- indeed shown him certain UFO-relateddocuments (ie. Project Aquarius papers) back in 1972. -Tom Mick

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------........<MICKUS> "Of course you don't know me. I've been speaking with
- Bill Cooper". <SWAN> "Un-huh."<MICKUS> "And you knew him from a while back?" <SWAN> "Yes."........<MICKUS> "There's one thing I
- wanted to ask you. Bill has decided to go public with all he knows, and has been getting from his sources; about what he kno
- ws about the U.S. gov't cover-up..." <SWAN> "Un-huh."<MICKUS> "...with UFOs, that type of thing..." <SWAN> "Un-huh."<MICKUS> "...and as one
- of the coroborating sources, he had mentioned your name to myself, and one other person as far as I know, about both of you
- seeing an Aquarius telex document back in '72. And I just wanted to find out, get confirmation from youf that that was true
- , that the content in there was what Bill has reproduced." <SWAN> "You know I can't um...I can't verify that. I don't recall
- that."<MICKUS> "So you don't remember ever seeing anything like that?" <SWAN> "No. I may have. But off the top [of my head], you know tha
- ts been years and years. And I don't, I don't at the present time remember...you know if I remember the circumstances or
- something...if you could let me know what the circumstances were, then I could piece it back together. To all of a sudd
- en to try and remember something like that... I mean, there's all kinds of discussions that we've had in the past, lengthy..
- .and so on."<MICKUS> "You mean related to this?" <SWAN> "Ahh, well there was a lot of stuff just as far as the carriers [aircraft]
- and stuff like that. But..." <MICKUS> "Just dealing with the military though?" <SWAN> "Yeah. ...but not anything that... He was always very
- above-board with stuff. As far as classified stuff, when I was on the...I think he was on the Enterprise...I don't remembe
- r, but I was on board one time, and we were going through...he was showing me around and stuff, and there was areas that he
- had access to that naturally I wouldn't. I know his knowledge is definitely there."<MICKUS> "So you can attest to that he has, or di
- d have this, high security rating that would give him access to..." <SWAN> "Oh yeah. Sh*t yeah.<MICKUS> "...cause he's come out an
- d said that he's got 4 different military intelligence sources." <SWAN> "Right. Well he was in the Air Force, the Navy... anyway,
- right now I can't really recall the...if I remember the circumstances maybe I could piece it back together...I'll thi
- nk about it...but as far as the UFO stuff, that...that was pretty much hearsay from what was going on on the carriers and st
- uff."<MICKUS> "You mean from Bill, or from other people?" <SWAN> "From Bill, yeah."<MICKUS> "Okay, this is the one thing he mentioned. The
- year was 1972 and it was an Aquarius-telex. Now I imagine if you did see this thing, it would probably stick in your mind...
- " <SWAN> "Yeah..."<MICKUS> "you know, about exchange of technology between Alien groups, Project Plato, then there was a Project Si
- gma about establishing communications, Project Redlight to test fly Alien aircraft, then there was the Project Snowbird to c
- over that up, and that was about all that was in the Aquarius document." <SWAN> "Yeah."<MICKUS> "But that doesn't ring a bell?" <S
- WAN> "No it doesn't."........<MICKUS> "But you say it could be true though?" <SWAN> "Oh yeah, it could be true, sure. He was really into th
- at. You know, I mean as far as... yeah he was really interested in that kind of sh*t. But I don't recall seeing that. And
- like you said, if I had, it probably would stick in my mind. However, if I remember the circumstances, like I said, maybe
- I could piece it back together, but right now..."<MICKUS> "About Bill's involvement, would you say that he's pretty level-headed
- about it? Was he talking about it all the time?" <SWAN> "No, I'd say he was pretty level headed about it."........ <SWAN> "Well he certai
- nly had access to a lot of information. I'm aware of that."........ <SWAN> "Basically what I had gathered from him is on the space
- shots and so on, from tracking and so on...the sightings that have been seen from astronauts in space, you know, communicati
- ons on board...just the sightings and so on. And I think thats what got his interest going on the thing. Navigation, he was
- a navigator I believe, and so he had all that front-line communication stuff going."<MICKUS> "I'm just curious, but is he bo
- und by any,...I know there are various regulations and this type of thing. But conceivably could he be in any hot water over
- ..." <SWAN> "I would say so. Right off the top [of my head]". He's no longer in the military is he?<MICKUS> "No..."........========
- =============================================================Selected Excerpts from Phone Conversation (B) (WITH "CODE" THIS TIME)----------
- -----------------------------------------------------------........<MICKUS> "The reason why Bill doesn't want you to get in touch with
- him in the immediate interim, is because he has to get independent verification that he did see these particular document
- s so many years ago. Now you personally haven't spoken with him, or corresponded for how long would you say?" <SWAN> "Twel
- ve, thirteen years."........<MICKUS> "...the night before he was to get married, he apparently told you "on the eve of his wedding",
- that was to be the code or whatever,...that you originally weren't supposed to tell anyone about this because it was just c
- onfidential between both of you. But he was telling me about when he had his house up on Aeia Heights Dr....[Bill Said] " I
- lived only a few houses below him, it was at night, we had a few drinks, I showed him the documents and gave him a c
- opy of it. And we talked for about an hour about it. I asked him to never to discuss it with anyone as it was Top Secret. An
- d then we never discussed it again after that." <SWAN> "Right."<MICKUS> "So do you remember that?" <SWAN> "I remember something to
- that effect, yup."<MICKUS> "And he said in the document, the coversheet said Majesty, it had Sigma, Redlight, Snowbird, Luna, Delta
- , NRO, Pluto, Plato, Pounce and a description of the aliens and other info in it..."....... <SWAN> "There's been lots of di
- scussion and stuff, but as far as anything other than like you just said...really minor momentarily talking about...that's a
- ll well and good. But as far as going into depth and knowing exactly what all that stuff is, I don't."<MICKUS> "He said he d
- id give you a copy of something." <SWAN> "You know, I don't recall that. He possibly could have. The instance [of the meeting] I re
- member that occuring. But I don't remember him giving me a copy of anything because of his involvement with...he was with CI
- NCPACFLT then, and I don't really... He might have shown me that, but I don't... he never gave me a copy of it that I recall
- . If he had of, I would have definitely had it stashed some place, and probably would have lost it by now anyway."<MICKUS> "
- But theoretically it could be buried away somewhere in your old records?" <SWAN> "I've been through stuff over the last ten - fift
- een years, and I a haven't come across it. But there's been stuff that Bill's shown me on UFO stuff so..."........<MICKUS> "
- ...is there anything that you can specifically remember that can be shown... Basically what I'm trying to determine is; Yes,
- you did see this particular document. Now I want to know that besides the fact that; Yes, you and Bill were talking about t
- he subject of...and..., this type of thing." <SWAN> "We were talking about the subject of UFOs quite a bit, and his interest in the
- m and all that. As far as all of the stuff that was Top Secret, whatever, there was stuff that he had told me and that he co
- uldn't say anything about, and so... And as far as getting a copy of some document, I don't really recall that, I may have s
- een it...but... And that period right before his wedding and all that, I remember that quite well."<MICKUS> "So if I take yo
- u back to that specific evening on Aeia Heights, and you are both talking over drinks, and Bill comes out and shows you this
- one set of documents. Do you not specifically recall that? Because that is important." <SWAN> "I specifically recall him
- showing me something, but as far as him giving me a copy, I don't recall."<MICKUS> "Well, forget about the copy part..." <SWAN> "As
- far as the exact Project and all of that, I can't really...if there was something in court or something and they would say,
- 'positively do you remember reading blah blah blah', and honestly I cannot."<MICKUS> "So how would you characterize those documents
- ? If you were to put it into your own sentence as to what he showed you, what would you say?" <SWAN> "Right off the top,\ '
- He showed me some papers with a bunch of stuff on it.' But as far as what it was, as far as what the Projects and stuff tha
- t you were talking about...that doesn't ring a bell to me."<MICKUS> "Like I said before, I don't want to involve you..." <SWAN> "H
- ey I'll tell you something, if I remembered, and if I had a copy of it, I wouldn't hesitate to get involved. I could careles
- s about...where a person hangs out. I'm not squeamish in any ways, about what you're talking about, all kinds of supernatura
- l stuff. If I had some knowledge of it, and I saw it...hell yeah man, I would get right into it."<MICKUS> "Actually, I was t
- hinking more of the...you know theoretically what some intelligence service could do to a person who... I thought that maybe
- you might not want to talk for that reason." <SWAN> "No no. After I talked with you the other time, I kinda gone back and
- re-lived conversations and stuff. As far as the contents of the document you are talking about... I know that we discussed a
- bunch of stuff as far as different things, but I don't know anything about the documents."<MICKUS> "Do you remember discus
- sing events connected with... Now, some of those Project names do they ring a bell at all? Or discussion of UFOs? Do you rem
- ember that as being central to what you were discussing, as opposed to just military..." <SWAN> "Well, if I got into the pa
- rticulars of the different operations or something, I would probably remember what was said. As far as the code names and al
- l of that kind of stuff, they really don't mean anything to me. As far as some of the things that were going on, I recall
- discussions on that. Its trying to piece together stuff that far back, and at that point in time it was fascinating to
- what was going on, but I didn't have any extreme interest in it."<MICKUS> "Would you say, thinking back to that time...that Yes, th
- e impression left is that this stuff that you saw dealt with UFOs. Was that..." <SWAN> "Oh yeah."<MICKUS> "That's clear the
- n, right?" <SWAN> "Oh yeah."<MICKUS> "You're just talking specifics now. And although you may not remember what was on the pages, w
- hatever, can you think back in your mind, and actually see Bill passing something over for you to look at...or referring to
- something in front of him, specific documents." <SWAN> "Yeah, I remember that. I remember that, but its like I said, as f
- ar as the contents and so on, that was just discussed. As far as a copy, I don't recall getting one.".......========================
