Churchill And The Saucers

Winnie stays quiet on the subject

Sources from the National Archive claim that Winston Churchill ordered the cover-up of a wartime encounter between a UFO and an RAF bomber crew. Of course this has been repeated as fact by the media but the story was based upon an anecdote reported in a letter received by the Ministry of Defence as late as 1999.
The author of the letter said he was the grandson of an RAF officer who was “part of the personal bodyguard” of the PM during WW2 and was present when the sighting was discussed with US General Eisenhower.
After a discussion of the matter, Churchill was supposed to have declared: “This event should be immediately classified since it would create mass panic amongst the general population and destroy one’s belief in the Church.”
Now its always puzzled me why church goers are reluctant to believe in UFO's and the like. Surely God didn't only create Man? Nah, He would have been cool and added martians with funny heads and vaporizer guns.
