I did find it interesting that the dod approved their release retroactively: https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/216571...
Because that's what happens when you release classified info without authorization, right?
I do wonder, though, if Fravor, Graves, Deitrich, etc are in on this (psyop), were themselves duped by a classified program they were unwittingly helping to test, or something actually strange and as yet unexplained went on.
