The message and the ‘data sheets" which followed were found in the esory banks of the raster computer at Security Control, Onaha KFB, and were sccidentally discovered in 1970 during a print-out run, while the computer was teing interrogated for another reason. A top security lid was innediately clanped on the matter while an investigation was launched to attempt to identify the source of the unusual transmission. Neither tthe message or the data could be traced to any known country, or alliance, in the World. All of the terminclogy, uniforms, weaponry, and other material vas completely foriegn to the terainology, uniforns, weaponry, and othor material known to be in existence at that tine.

And the file was closed, while a search was initiated to find the person, or persons, responsible for thie ‘breach of Security Control.
