We are pleased to be able to make a major announcement today. We have received and decided to accept an offer from a major US publishing house in respect of our book. The book will be published by St. Martin’s Press and the provisional title is “Rendezvous at Rendlesham”. St. Martin’s Press is one of the largest publishers in the United States and we are pleased to be working with a company that has a proven track record of publishing books from some of the world’s best-known authors. It is our belief that the Rendlesham Forest incident is a bigger and more significant UFO case than Roswell. It is our intention, in this book, to place into the public domain everything that we know about the extraordinary series of events that took place at Bentwaters and Woodbridge, both during the encounters themselves, and in the aftermath. While there have been previous books on the subject, they have been written by people in the UFO community. N

ow, the military personnel at the heart of this incident will finally have their say. This case has been devilled by misinformation, disinformation and by people wanting to write themselves into the story. We intend to set the record straight and tell the full story of these extraordinary events for the first time. We do so in order to reveal the truth about events that we believe are of immense historical significance and public interest. We also do so for the men and women stationed at Bentwaters and Woodbridge at the time, many of whom have suffered as a result of what happened. It is our hope that the publication of this book will lead to the wrongs they have suffered being righted. In writing this book we have decided to work with former UK Ministry of Defense employee Nick Pope. There are several reasons for this. Nick is an experienced author, journalist and broadcaster with a high mainstream media profile both in the UK and in the US, where he now lives.

More importantly, his 21-year government career means that he understands the culture and ethos of the military personnel at the heart of this story in a way that ufologists do not. The fact that one of his postings was to MoD’s UFO project, where he undertook a cold case review of the Rendlesham Forest incident, means that he is intimately familiar with the intricacies of this case. Finally, the fact that he held – as did we – a TS/SCI security clearance, means that he understands the sensitivities involved. We are also working with a lawyer, Pat Frascogna, who is advising us on a wide range of legal issues associated with the case. As an attorney, Pat is also making a series of carefully targeted Freedom of Information Act requests for documents relating to our military service and to the Rendlesham Forest incident more generally. This will supplement the significant number of government and military documents that we have already amassed.

We appreciate that people will have many comments and questions, but for the time being, we have little further to say. Clearly our priority now must be to concentrate on the book itself. We will make further announcements when we have something relevant to say (e.g. notification of the publication date), but neither we nor Nick will enter into discussions with people over this before publication, except in the case of those with direct involvement in these events, who we will be speaking to as part of the process of putting together the book. Generally speaking, we will not be engaging with the UFO community on this. Our book is not about ufologists, but about the men and women who served at the twin bases of Bentwaters and Woodbridge and were caught up in these extraordinary events. We hope you are as excited about this major new development as we are and we look forward to sharing with you the definitive insiders’ account of the Rendlesham Forest incident.
