JANAP 146(C) and the UFO Timeline: A Bibliographic Framework for CIRVIS Reporting (1954)

To the point

Starting in 1954, JANAP 146(C) created CIRVIS to report vital sightings from airborne and waterborne sources, and an online resource now groups related UFO literature into Web Resources, Book References, and Other material as long, sortable bibliographies—featuring discussions by Clifford E. Stone, Isaac Koi, Richard Dolan, and Hector Quintanilla—within a dense UFO Timeline focused on Joint Army-Navy-Air Force publications and intentionally preserving uncertainties by listing works and dates rather than making definitive claims.

JANAP 146(C) and the UFO Timeline: A Bibliographic Framework for CIRVIS Reporting (1954)

JANAP 146(C) (March 10, 1954) superseded JANAP 146(B) to establish the CIRVIS framework for reporting vital intelligence sightings from airborne and waterborne sources, and the resource organizes materials into Web Resources, Book References, and Other material with an emphasis on extensive bibliographic tables—rather than perpetual links—available online within a “UFO Timeline” that centers on Joint Army-Navy-Air Force publications, including an image of JANAP 146(D) as presented by Clifford E. Stone in UFOs are Real (1997) and discussions by Isaac Koi (reviews of about 963 books, 2003–2006), Richard M. Dolan (UFOs and the National Security State: Volume 1, 2000, p. 225), and Hector Quintanilla (UFOs: An Air Force Dilemma, 1974), all reflecting a dense, uncertainty-preserving bibliographic landscape and noting that many UFO links become outdated.
