I posted 7 pictures at the bottom of this article. Plus see my note down there too below the white line.

Report by A. J. Gevaerd, editor, Brazilian UFO Magazine
Translated by Eduardo Rado, volunteer, Brazilian UFO Magazine

As of May 04th, Brazilian Government has disclosed over 600 new pages of previously classified documents, covering UFO reports and military investigations from 1970 to 1979, including photos and films, for the first time.

The content of this material has now been examined and proved to be very interesting and revelatory of Brazilian official strategy to cover UFO cases, often openly regarded as "from external sources" in these new documents, meaning from outside Earth. The cases covered and the methods used to investigate them by the military are also very significant.

On my opinion, the most important material contained in this new declassification are 195 new pages of documents resulted from the Operation Saucer, conducted in the Amazon by the Brazilian Air Force from September to December 1977, that is certainly the biggest *known* official initiative to military investigate UFOs in the world.

As I also reported, so far, over 1,400 pages of Brazilian previously classified UFO documents have been released thanks to the efforts of the Brazilian UFO Researchers Committee (CBU), through the campaign UFOs: Freedom of Information Now, started in 2004 and articulated by the Brazilian UFO Magazine. This last one has been the biggest disclosure ever in Brazil.

The PDF files of 12 envelopes or folders now released can be downloaded here. Please read below a summary of the contents of each envelope or folder and pay special attention to this one down loadable here Folder 10 - 1978.

Brazilian UFO researchers are very excited about these new disclosures, that in questionably prove that our efforts have been profitable for the entire Brazilian UFO Community.

Contents of 12 folders disclosed by the Brazilian Ministry of Defense confirm activities of unidentified flying objects in Brazilian territory. Moreover, it shows that Brazilian military authorities have always monitored such activities of other species in the country's environment.

Folder 01-1970 - 13

This folder contains statements delivered at a police station in the city of Bauru (SP). The office was linked to the extinct DOPS, an acronym to name the feared Brazilian Department of Political and Social Order during military dictatorship. There are also reports of numerous UFO sightings occurred in many cities of the state of Sao Paulo. Such reports highlight the good reputation with which police officers regard the witnesses. There are also occurrences from the state of Rio Grande do Sul involving an unsuccessful attempt of an official car to chase a UFO - the object exploded in the air without leaving a trace.

Folder 02-1971 - 22 pages

Military reports addressed to Brig. Gervasio Duncan and Gen. Moacyr Uchoa describing UFOs flight and landing in the states of Rio Grande do Sul and Rio de Janeiro, including a UFO chasing aircraft and sightings of 2-meter tall beings beside their spacecraft in the city of Belo Horizonte (MG).

DOPS report containing statements delivered by Sao Paulo city teachers on UFO sightings occurred between municipalities of Ubirajara and Galia in August-October 1972.

Bulletins from the Sociedade Pelotense de Investigação e Pesquisa de Discos Voadores, from April to October 1973 containing articles on the Brazilian cases emphasizing several occurrences registered in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The fact suggests that Brazilian researchers had been monitored by the Air Force.

Continued from Brazilian UFO Disclosure Part 1, the following photos are just some of PDF 10-1978. I'll go back to 10-1978 sometime soon but meanwhile I thought it best to pull some of the good ones out and jump to a new PDF since there is so much to look at. Unfortunately I cannot read the text since I don't speak the language so I won't be inputting much there.

It is now June 6th 3pm ET and I have four more PDFs to go through for pictures. Thus far, the only pictures I found worthy of mention or uploading are already on the Internet and have been for previous years. Unless I find something in the next four PDFs, I won't be posting anymore pictures. If you haven't gone through the PDFs yourself yet I'll tell you that there are multitudes of hand drawings and that's about it. You can see some of the same pictures found in the PDFs, here at the following address.
