The following documents were obtained via FOIA case 22-F-0954 filed by The Black Vault to the Department of Defense (DoD). The original request sought after specific UAP and AATIP related keywords on the email box of Justin Mikolay,
These responsive records totaled only three pages of emails between Justin Mikolay and Luis Elizondo. It revealed that in March 17, 2017, Elizondo and Mikolay were in contact to discuss an unnamed topic. The first email shows Mikolay sent an email to Elizondo referencing their talk in the morning, and getting him his email address. It is unclear who initiated the contact.
Almost two hours later, Elizondo responded stating, “Justin, I have you Lima-Charlie. Let me know your schedule next week and I will accommodate. Hopefully I can be helpful and shed some light on the topic.” The topic is unknown as it is never was openly stated or referenced in the emails.
On March 20, 2017 (three days after the first contact), Elizondo seemed to check in again with Mikolay attempting to schedule something. The next day, Mikolay asked for a phone call.
The emails then jump to April 19, 2017, wherein Elizondo again reaches out to Mikolay seeking to schedule a one minute or less “dialogue” about “another program” Elizondo was managing. According to Elizondo, he suspected that aspects of the program were going to come across the desk of Mikolay and the “boss”, presumably Gen. Mattis, “in the immediate near term (if not already).”
Why this may be relevant to the AATIP timeline stems from Elizondo’s DoD/IG complaint, as published in redacted form by the NY Post. It is highly likely that the redacted name in this portion of the request, was Mikolay:
The Black Vault reached out to Justin Mikolay, but no response was received.
If true, these emails may be about AATIP and they may partially confirm Elizondo’s account of events in this portion of his IG complaint. However, there is no 100% certainty (yet), but the records are offered here reference.
Note: The original FOIA request asked for a list of keywords that included: ““UNIDENTIFIED AERIAL” and/or UAP and/or UFO and/or “UNIDENTIFIED FLYING” and/or AATIP and/or “ADVANCED AEROSPACE” And/or “ADVANCED AVIATION” and/or AAWSAP And/or ELIZONDO”.
If the emails released via FOIA were in reference to Elizondo informing Mikolay and Gen. Mattis about AATIP in any way, it seems odd that not a single email is found elsewhere in Mikolay’s box that contain the acronym “AATIP” or “Unidentified”. It would seem logical that if this was about AATIP, and there was action after Elizondo’s briefing, that at least one hit would come up in either the unclassified or classified email boxes of Mikolay, however according to the DoD, there were not.
