Cool, I'll see what he has to say. In the book it was more a compilation of reports, a series of them and in each case he holds up some obscure German weapon that couldn't possibly be in use in that area at that time. There are a very few exceptions. His research into German weapons is impressive but it seems poorly stitched to the foo fighter accounts - not a perfect fit and a bit dry. The coolness of Nazi wonder weapons doesn't add gravitas to the foo fighter story but the book does serve to let you know what stage of development they were in and how widespread their use might have been. Which wasn't so much as we might think.
What I got out of it was that there aren't many verified accounts and the majority of them in the book don't really describe what we would think of as part of the UFO phenomenon. More like people who are scared shitless and the profligate use of modern arms. Having read this the wee little saucers described in Black Thursday sound more like an aerial mine type thing than anything else. There are some descriptions of non-ballistic motion though that do make me wonder.
Perspective. I work with a bunch of kids that are maybe 18-24 at most. I hear them goof around with one another, see how they behave. Most are decent sorts. The accounts we're reading about didn't come from old farts like us sitting comfortably in our jammies with all the clarity of hindsight. They came from excitable kids no different than the ones I see every day in fantastically stressful situations, with the exception that in WW2 UFOs weren't as big a part of our pop culture then as now. Plus, they have been repeated ad nauseum and the author touches on that - that the stories tend to blur and grow legs. The idea of alien visitation wasn't unknown at the time but it took a very different form that we look at as totally hokey now. If AAWSAP really did use this material to feed on of their databases I would have doubts about any conclusions drawn from it.
