										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In November of 2018, The Black Vault began pursuing records relating to the company United Nuclear, owned by Bob Lazar of &#8220;flying saucers at Area 51&#8221; fame. Whether his story behind seeing alien craft within Area 51 is true or not, his company United Nuclear does have an FBI file.</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://unitednuclear.com/index.php?main_page=index&amp;cPath=86" target="_blank" rel="noopener">United Nuclear</a>&#8216;s website:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><em><strong>&#8220;The purpose of United Nuclear Scientific (United Nuclear Scientific Supplies, LLC) is to once again make scientific equipment &amp; supplies available to everyone. Currently, both private and public schools (as well as other learning institutions) have removed chemicals &amp; glassware from their chemistry labs and electronic components from their engineering classes&#8230; along with many other important pieces of &#8220;hands-on&#8221; learning equipment. In addition, laboratory equipment, chemicals &amp; supplies which were once widely available, are now difficult to find or no longer for sale. &#8216;Lab&#8217; classes that used to offer hands-on experience with actual materials now have students conduct experiments on computer or simply read text instead of actually coming into contact with the equipment &amp; materials they are learning about. Most professors &amp; teachers we have spoken with completely disagree with this concept. It is our intention make these and other interesting/scientific related items once again available to the hobbyist, teacher and home experimenter, as well as professional and Government organizations.&#8221;</strong></em></p>
<p>The motivation behind the request was the discussion of a raid in 2017 of United Nuclear, which was revealed on <a href="https://www.extraordinarybeliefs.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jeremy Corbell</a>&#8216;s documentary &#8220;<a href="https://www.extraordinarybeliefs.com/films#/lazar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bob Lazar: Area 51 &amp; Flying Saucers</a>.&#8221; However, in the files of United Nuclear, the FBI denies that within the FBI files on United Nuclear are records pertaining to the 2017 raid. According to <a href="https://www.theblackvault.com/casefiles/documents-on-2017-bob-lazar-united-nuclear-raid-laingsburg-police-department/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">local police records</a> received about the incident, the FBI is referenced, so theoretically, there should be.</p>
<figure id="attachment_14944" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-14944" style="width: 896px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39.png"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="wp-image-14944 size-full" src="https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39.png" alt="" width="896" height="522" srcset="https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39.png 896w, https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39-300x175.png 300w, https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39-150x87.png 150w, https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39-450x262.png 450w, https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39-768x447.png 768w, https://www.theblackvault.com/documentarchive/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/8-20-2021-4-52-39-600x350.png 600w" sizes="(max-width: 896px) 100vw, 896px" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-14944" class="wp-caption-text">During the course of negotiating the case, The Black Vault discovered that no records pertained to the 2017 raid.</figcaption></figure>
<p>Although The Black Vault has another case open specifically for documents pertaining to this raid, it is unclear why a raid of United Nuclear, which had FBI involvement, would not exist in the FBI file filed under United Nuclear. It is possible, for whatever reason, the raid files are listed under records pertaining to Bob Lazar himself, and not under United Nuclear, which if true would require a waiver signed by Lazar in order to access the files.</p>
<p>Multiple attempts by The Black Vault over the years to contact Lazar never received a response.</p>
<p>You will also note that the above e-mail reference shows there are more than 1,000 pages total. In the course of negotiating, The Black Vault reduced the scope of the request in order to get records quicker. That was FBI Release #1, available below. However, a new case was filed for the rest, and likely will take a considerable time to complete. In March of 2023, additional records from that case began being released. That is FBI Release #2 below.</p>
<p>In November of 2023, additional records were released. That is FBI Release #3 below. It appears the case remains open, and more records set to be released at a later date. (Note the number of pages reviewed (357) but only 56 were released. Much is being withheld.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The following records were requested by The Black Vault from Nellis AFB in January of 2023. The request was a search on Nellis AFB spokesperson Lt. Col. Bryon McGarry&#8217;s email box, for all messages that contained the following keywords: <em>&#8220;Unidentified Aerial&#8221; and/or &#8220;unidentified anomalous&#8221; and/or &#8220;Area 51&#8221; and/or &#8220;Dreamland&#8221;.</em></p>
<p>The original request was prompted by the news about the Area 51 Dreamland Resort webmaster getting <a href="https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2022/11/18/air-force-fbi-raid-homes-of-man-with-area-51-website/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">raided by the Air Force and FBI</a> and Lt. Col. McGarry being quoted in outlets that covered the news.</p>
<p>The request yielded a few exchanges between journalists and the public affairs office unrelated to the raid, but one exchange proved the most revealing about that event specifically.</p>
<p>Although Lt. Col. McGarry was quoted in numerous articles that he had known about the raid, behind the scenes, it was a different story. Although the name is redacted, the signature of the email is not, and the title is &#8220;Chief, Nellis AFB Public Affairs&#8221;, a title Lt. Col. McGarry has listed on his <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryonmcgarry/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LinkedIn</a> page at the time the email was written.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Background</h3>
<p>&#8220;Storm Area 51, They Can&#8217;t Stop All of Us&#8221;, commonly referred to as Raid Area 51, Storm Area 51, or Area 51 Raid, was an American Facebook event that took place on September 20, 2019, at Area 51, a United States Air Force (USAF) facility within the Nevada Test and Training Range. The event, created by Matty Roberts on June 27, 2019, would involve raiding the site in a search for extraterrestrial life. More than 2 million people responded &#8220;going&#8221; and 1.5 million &#8220;interested&#8221; on the event&#8217;s page, which subsequently attracted widespread media reaction and caused the event to become an Internet meme. Roberts later stated that the event was purely comedic, and disavowed responsibility for any casualties were there any actual attempts to raid the military base.</p>
<p>Below, you will find the FBI files on the event.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Background</h3>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><em>&#8220;Storm Area 51, They Can&#8217;t Stop All of Us&#8221;, commonly referred to as Raid Area 51 or Storm Area 51, was an American Facebook event that took place on September 20, 2019, at Area 51, a United States Air Force (USAF) facility within the Nevada Test and Training Range, to raid the site in a search for extraterrestrial life. More than 2 million people responded &#8220;going&#8221; and 1.5 million &#8220;interested&#8221; on the event&#8217;s page, which subsequently attracted widespread media reaction and made the event become an Internet meme.</em></p>
<p>USAF was fielding e-mails and phone calls from journalists (and others) about the event. On September 5, 2019, I filed a FOIA request for all e-mails sent to/from USAF Spokeswoman Laura Mcandrews that contained the keyword &#8220;Area 51.&#8221;</p>
<p>On October 24, 2019, I received the below documents.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Background</h3>
<p>Area 51 is a nickname for a military base located in the southern portion of Nevada in the western United States (83 miles north-northwest of downtown Las Vegas). Situated at its center, on the southern shore of Groom Lake, is a large secretive military airfield. The base&#8217;s primary purpose is to support development and testing of experimental aircraft and weapons systems.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the 2013 story that Area 51 was finally officially acknowledged, is incorrect. Under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), I received back in 2001 an official document explaining Area 51 by the Department of Energy. In 2004, I obtained another from the Central Intelligence Agency acknowledging Area 51.</p>
