To Whom It May Concern:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
All documents generated as part of the Defense Department's Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program, including the 490-page report that was described in a December 16 article in the Washington Post. According to the Washington Post, the report describes alleged UFO sightings in the United States and numerous foreign countries over multiple decades. The title of the Washington Post article is "Head of Pentagon’s secret ‘UFO’ office sought to make evidence public", and it can be read at this url: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/head-of-pentagons-secret-ufo-office-sought-to-make-evidence-public/2017/12/16/90bcb7cc-e2b2-11e7-8679-a9728984779c_story.html?
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
As I seek this information in connection with my journalistic activities, I am entitled to have fees waived under FOIA. If I am denied the fee waiver, I will pay actual, reasonable copying costs as allowed by law. Please consider this letter authorization for copying costs up to $200
If my request is denied in whole or part, I ask that you justify all deletions by reference to specific exemptions of FOIA. I also expect you to release all segregable portions of otherwise exempt material.
I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 20 business days, as the statute requires. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me at 929-422-3694.
Sincerely,
Laurent Bastien Corbeil
