Grant has held a fascination for the UFO\/UAP topic ever since he was a young boy and considers himself to be just an ordinary guy who believes in extraordinary things, with a healthy degree of scepticism and an open mind thrown in there together for good measure. When it comes the UAP\/UFO topic, Grant is a curious citizen, advocate for truth and transparency and activist for greater engagement from those we elect into positions of authority.<\/p>\n<p>A word from Grant to The Black Vault, written just prior to the interview above. It is archived here for reference, along with all the documents referenced in the above interview.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>On 25 June 2021, the US Office of the Director of National Intelligence released its preliminary assessment on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP). Of the 144 case reports examined, only one could be positively identified!. The remaining 143 were unexplained and placed into a catchall &#8220;other&#8221; bin. Fast forward to 27 December 2021, when President Biden signs into law, the National Defence Authorisation Act (NDAA), mandating the establishment of a new office designed to comprehensively investigate UAPs, as well as coordinate with allies and partners of the United States (including Australia), &#8220;to better assess the nature and extent of unidentified aerial phenomena\u201d. Fast forward even further to this year, when in May the US Congress held its first public hearing on UAP\/UFOs in more than 50-years, and to now only just this week, the US Department of Defence announced the establishment of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), formerly known as the Airborne Object Identification and\u00a0Management Group (AOIMGS)&#8230;with even broader responsibilities.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Despite US lawmakers and the US Department of Defence taking the topic of UAP &#8211; now Unidentified Aerospace-Undersea Phenomena &#8211; incredibly seriously, the Australian government is not.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Why?<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>The Australian Department of Defence does not have a policy governing the reporting or recording of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) by either members of the public or Defence members (it hasn\u2019t since 1996) and &#8220;has no plans to replicate a similar mechanism\u201d to that of AARO.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Why?<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>The Australian Department of Defence has confirmed that is has \u201cno desire to seek collaboration on this issue\u201d, despite the US NDAA mandating coordination with allies on the topic.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Why?<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><em>Why is Australia not taking UAP seriously?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Below, you will find the .pdf of all the documents (and more) that Grant went over in the interview.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/images\/pdf.gif\" alt=\"\" \/> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/documentarchive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/GrantLavac.pdf\">Download the Grant Lavac Files<\/a> [6.8MB]<\/p>\n<div class=\"ead-preview\"><div class=\"ead-document\" style=\"position: relative;padding-top: 90%;\"><div class=\"ead-iframe-wrapper\"><iframe src=\"\/\/docs.google.com\/viewer?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theblackvault.com%2Fdocumentarchive%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2015%2F03%2FGrantLavac.pdf&amp;embedded=true&amp;hl=en\" title=\"Embedded Document\" class=\"ead-iframe\" style=\"width: 100%;height: 100%;border: none;position: absolute;left: 0;top: 0;visibility: hidden;\"><\/iframe><\/div>\t\t\t<div class=\"ead-document-loading\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0;top:0;z-index:10;\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ead-loading-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ead-loading-main\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ead-loading\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/documentarchive\/wp-content\/plugins\/embed-any-document\/images\/loading.svg\" width=\"55\" height=\"55\" alt=\"Loader\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Loading...<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ead-loading-foot\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ead-loading-foot-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/documentarchive\/wp-content\/plugins\/embed-any-document\/images\/EAD-logo.svg\" alt=\"EAD Logo\" width=\"36\" height=\"23\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Taking too long?<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ead-document-btn ead-reload-btn\" role=\"button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/documentarchive\/wp-content\/plugins\/embed-any-document\/images\/reload.svg\" alt=\"Reload\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\"\/> Reload document\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>|<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/documentarchive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/GrantLavac.pdf\" class=\"ead-document-btn\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/documentarchive\/wp-content\/plugins\/embed-any-document\/images\/open.svg\" alt=\"Open\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\"\/> Open in new tab\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><p class=\"embed_download\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theblackvault.com\/documentarchive\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/GrantLavac.pdf\" download>Download [6.42 MB] <\/a><\/p><\/div><h3>The National Archives of Australia<\/h3>\n<div id=\"page_block_1056\" class=\"page_block_container bx-def-margin-sec-leftright\">\n<div class=\"disignBoxFirst bx-def-margin-top\">\n<div class=\"boxContent\">\n<div class=\"dbContent bx-def-bc-margin\">\n<div class=\"bx-def-font-large\">\n<p>The National Archives of Australia holds a number of records relating to unidentified flying objects (UFOs), flying saucers and other unidentified aerial sightings. Most of these records date from the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, when public interest in UFOs was high and many sightings were reported to Commonwealth authorities.<\/p>\n<p>There was no specific government agency responsible for the collecting and analyzing of these sightings, so responsibility fell on the Department of Air. The Department collected reports from defence force members, pilots and air traffic controllers, meteorologists and the general public. During the peak of interest in UFOs, the department investigated some reports, trying to establish whether the sightings could be attributed to low flying aircraft, weather balloons or meteorological phenomena.<\/p>\n<p>Reports were also collected by other agencies involved in air safety, research and intelligence, including the CSIRO, the Joint Intelligence Organisation, the Weapons Research Establishment at Maralinga, and the Department of Transport. The Department of Territories kept reports from Papua New Guinea.<\/p>\n<p>Below you can download more than 7,700+ pages from the Archives&#8217; collection that relates to UFOs.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Black Vault would like to thank <a href=\"http:\/\/www.noufors.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Michel M. Deschamps<\/a>, UFO Researcher\/Historian\/Archivist, for assisting in obtaining these documents, and allowing them to be listed on The Black Vault!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Note added July 5, 2021: There has been much talk online throughout social media about A13693_3092-2-000_30030606.pdf. As a result, I recalled I had posted the below collection thanks to the assistance of Michel Deschamps about 6 1\/2 years ago, which also included the rumored &#8220;recently released&#8221; file. I am unclear of the current hype, or what sparked it, but do believe the below collection has many more documents than the online National Archives of Australia. I could absolutely be wrong, but at the very least, it is a lot more easily navigable, now complete with a convenient .zip file. I have not tried to cross reference the online documents at the Archives vs. what is below. If anyone does and they feel there are more files, please let me know.\u00a0ENJOY!<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>[<img decoding=\"async\"
