In September 2019, as the Navy confirmed that three widely circulated videos showed unidentified aerial phenomena, U.S. Air Force public affairs staff circulated queries from The Drive and The New York Times. Internal emails show the 633rd Air Base Wing and 1st Fighter Wing could not confirm Joint Base Langley-Eustis airmen witnessed the phenomenon, while the Air Force Safety Center said it does not track UAP unless a pilot nearly crashed — and OSD took the lead on all such queries.
