Disappearance of Retired Air Force General William 'Neil' McCasland Linked to UFO Programs Under Investigation in Albuquerque
To the point
William “Neil” McCasland, 68, a retired Air Force general who led the Phillips Research Site and the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson, disappeared from his Albuquerque home on February 27 after a morning repairman visit; a Silver Alert was issued as investigators search with drones, dogs and camera footage from the Sandia Foothills, with his phone, prescription glasses and wearables left behind while hiking boots and a .38 revolver were missing, and although online speculation ties him to UFO topics, officials say there is no evidence of foul play and they are weighing whether he left voluntarily.
