[0:16:15 - 0:16:24] Adding to the mystery, Menzel was named in the MJ-12 documents as part of
Truman's top secret UFO research panel in the late 1940s.
[0:18:54 - 0:19:02] These high-level programs launched by
Truman were designed to unify psychological warfare efforts across US agencies.
[0:24:19 - 0:24:30] Gray was also named as one of the advisors on the top secret research and development organization established by
Truman as it appears in the leaked Majestic 12 documentation.
[0:36:29 - 0:36:38] Allegedly, the Majestic-12 was a secret committee formed by President
Truman in 1947 to handle the extraterrestrial issue.
[0:36:54 - 0:37:04] MJ-12 was supposed to have been created at the same time the
Truman administration was facing an entirely new existential threat, nuclear weapons.
[0:40:19 - 0:40:31] It may have evolved in this period from a small
Truman-era committee to a more structured program under Eisenhower, and elite think tanks like these may have served as its intellectual and strategic backbone.
