Episode 42 - Michael Schratt: UFO Crash Retrievals

UFO Crash Retrievals with Michael Schratt, an expert investigator dedicated to preserving lost and forgotten history. In this compelling discussion, Michael pays homage to the pioneering work of Leonard Stringfield, the gentleman who coined the term "UFO crash retrieval" and compiled dozens of firsthand military witnesses over 30 years. Drawing on Stringfield's extensive archives, Michael presents breathtaking forensic composite illustrations and full-color renderings of incredible alleged crash retrieval incidents. Learn about his meticulous process for selecting cases and bringing the witness testimony to life visually. Discover the fascinating characteristics witnesses report that may help distinguish between potential man-made advanced aerospace programs (often tested on Thursday nights, featuring seams, fasteners, humming noises) and purported extraterrestrial craft (described as silent, seamless, built like "stacked atoms"). This presentation features visual reconstructions derived from specific case details provided by Stringfield's sources, including: A 1942 crash near a Georgia Army base with a 15ft diameter, 10ft high craft, hieroglyphic writing, and 5ft tall occupants, some taken alive. A 1946 incident at Wright Field involving an 18ft diameter disc with two wings wrapped around the outer circumference, tripod landing gear, and three deceased corpses on stretchers, as witnessed by Tex Martin and his father. Another 1946 Wright Field case detailing a seamless, sterile 16ft diameter, 7ft tall disc, a series of rectangular "windows", attempted penetration marks from diamond drill bits, and a central column, reported by a private in records management. A 1947 retrieval on the Papago Indian Reservation featuring a 30ft diameter, 18ft tall craft with a low rise dome, two rings, and indented "windows", witnessed by two individuals stopped by MPs. A 1947 White Sands Missile Range event involving a large, 150ft diameter craft during a well-documented nighttime retrieval operation with searchlights and film cameras. A 1947 case at Berkeley University describing a 30ft long, 15ft high egg-shaped craft that looked like a "cracked egg", with a composite panel, a central yoke, and shrapnel sticking out, witnessed by metallurgical engineer Albert Bruce Collins. Michael connects these historical accounts to modern developments, including David Grush's congressional testimony confirming a multi-decade UAP crash retrieval program. Explore the challenges of disclosure, the role of proprietary information held by defense contractors, and the government's potential strategy of using the "UFO brush" to conceal deep black programs. Learn why retrieving physical evidence is crucial for moving the field forward and the difficulties faced by those trying to penetrate the "cosmic Watergate" due to issues like security clearances. Michael also briefly touches on the often-overlooked phenomenon of USOs (Unidentified Submerged Objects). This is the "next best thing" to being there yourself. Don't miss this insightful look into alleged retrieved technology and biologicals, presented with stunning visual detail derived directly from witness accounts. Michael will be speaking about "Retrievals of the Third Kind" at the MUFON Symposium in Cincinnati, July 17th-21st, 2025.
