There's an interesting connection between the New Age cults, aliens, and government mind control programs. Like with Puharich manipulating Phyllis Schlemmer, seeming to be a mind control experiment... he hypnotised other people too in experiments into suggestion, Uri Geller for one. Successfully made people claim things they had no prior belief in.
Do you think Penniston (or any of them) might have been hypnotised into saying the new age stuff later?
Second, if you have any issue about the credibility of the report, you should try to prove it wrong/fake.
But by just pointing out we do not know what the VA said does not lead to anywhere.
I cannot judge the credibility of the report without first reading it , I can judge the credibility of those involved in the story about the report from their past actions or statements.
Isn't that the problem though ? , we cannot judge the veracity of the story without the evidence that's supposed to back it up.
For those that want to believe Renlesham was ET the story is enough to bolster their belief , for those that want to know the truth it takes us no further forward.
What I am talking about is that I draw my conclusion from the report. If you have any issue concerned with the credibility of the report, you should prove it. Your attitude towards persons involved in has nothing to do with the credibility of the report itself.

An excellent find, and an important step.
However, the existence of unrecognized aerial phenomena still does not confirm either the breakaway hypothesis or the extraterrestrials. More poking is needed to get out the information on what the UFOs are.
I think we are talking about two totally different things , the report I'm referring to is the judgement from the VA , if you have access to that then please post a link to it otherwise you're basing your opinion on the press release posted by the individuals concerned.
However I would like to remind you that you miss some important information in the press release because the contact part of that release is the concerned individual's attorney
Frascogna is an associate of LMH and the 'citizen hearings on disclosure group.' This suggests, to me, that the statement itself is an interpretation by Frascogna that isn't at all the thinking of the VA. Without a release from the VA, we'll have to take his word for it.

What is the real information in it? I would like to try to summarize the following:
1. The official acknowledgement of existence of UFO/UAP in the Rendlesham Forest back to 1980. The witnesses did NOT lie. Case closed.
2. The official acknowledgement of the radioactivity of UFO/UAP.
3. The official acknowledgement of relationship between UFO/UAP radiation and John Burroughs’s health issue.

Resolving the issue
Thanks to the influence and contacts of the British physicist Professor Frank Close the matter was resolved more definitively in 1997 for a television discussion programme produced by London Weekend Television (called Strange But True – Live) on which Professor Close and I were to appear along with Nick Pope and Col. Halt.
My earlier inquiries had shown that the radiation monitor used by Halt and his team would have been of the type known as an AN/PDR-27. On behalf of Frank Close, NRPB contacted the American manufacturers of the AN/PDR-27, who stated that Halt’s peak measurement of 0.1 mR/h was the “bottom reading on the lowest range” of the monitor and was “of little or no significance”. They noted further that these instruments are designed to be used to monitor workplace fields or radiation levels after sizable nuclear incidents and are therefore not suitable for environmental monitoring at background levels. On the basis of this information from the manufacturers, NRPB concluded that using such an instrument to establish a level of 10 times background is not credible.
