Vietnam Case Files

Case File for the Vietnam War

As a matter of policy, all firsthand live sightings remain classified while being analyzed or investigated. Once a sighting is resolved, the initial report and all associated documents are reviewed for declassification, and as appropriate, released. This is an unclassified listing of documents contained in DPMO's Generic Classified Information File. The contents of the generic file are subject to change as new reports are received and integrated, and old reports are resolved, declassified, and released to the Library of Congress or National Archives. Whenever documents are added or deleted from the generic file, this unclassified list will be updated. Documents being withheld were last reviewed for declassification on 27 May 2004. Note: A # sign in front of the index number indicates an addition since 24 Jun 2004.
