As i have only heard rumours about Montauk and its stories i thought this was my favourite so far this year i know most of its just stories of guys and some witnesses but really puts into perspective they're have been rumours about missing children been involved with projects i believe its still going on only the other day i have a source that says 'that there may be some sort of project finding and holding children for various things ' you never know it could all still be linked.
 
Hey i watched the film last night i thought it was very good i was however i little disappointed that they never discussed the actual Project as that story fascinates me also hopefully he does one on the whole project. i have been in some situations where certain things need done under cover of what the media portrays and i understand fully of some of the procedures that were used DENIABILTY is the key factor in some of these Operations .
 
Great episode gentlemen. Episodes like this are why I subscribed, and will continue to support you guys In your endeavors. Kudos!

But what was interesting to me is the many details, and people left out of the telling of the Philadelphia Experiment.

One of the main details being that it didn't actually occur on the U.S.S. Eldridge. That story's part of the disinfo campaign
by the Navy (a number of figures in Ufology over the years have been Naval intelligence). :D

The people left out being Alexandra "Chica" Bruce, and Bob Beckwith.

Before I start, a few things. I've been reading about the "paranormal" for close to 40 years, and an active participant in certain aspects of it
for close to 20. This posts, and others I make, are for educational purposes, and for further research, for those willing to look, and most importantly, DO.

Believe nothing I say. Believe nothing anyone says. Saying you believe, is saying you don't know. Direct experience is the only thing that
counts in this simulation we call reality. Everything else is heresay, opinions, and blah, blah, blah. Not to be trusted, or taken at face value.

With that said:

Alexandra Bruce wrote the definitive book on all of this, "The Philadelphia Experiment Murder: Parallel Universes and the Physics of Insanity":

(Temporarily Out of Stock)

Here's an excerpt:

"Bob Beckwith is the owner of a successful electrical engineering firm that services utility
industries throughout the world. Beckwith is an innovator who has patented many electrical systems
over his long career, and he shows no signs of quitting today.

Late in 1942 while still in his early 20s, Beckwith invented Frequency Shift Keyed transfer trip
equipment which facilitated the sending of electrical power over long distances. … Bob's wunderkind
status led to his being tapped by Bell Labs for a project to improve sonar technology. This was urgently
needed to defend against German mines that were being laid off the U.S. coasts and were blowing
Navy boats out of the water before they could reach the European theater.

Beckwith recalls that while the refinement of radar and grappling with its ramifications were of chief
importance to wartime electrical engineers on the European front. "Radar was not a major problem to
the Navy in the defense of the U.S. coast whereas submarines and the new German mine were." This is
an interesting divergence from the predominating accounts of the Philadelphia Experiment legend which
usually include a tangent about the Navy's frantic rush to develop "radar invisibility". As Beckwith
remembers it, however, the radar war took place mainly in the skies over Europe. According to him, the
protection of the U.S. coast was the primary objective of the real Philadelphia Experiment. And it was
not a test of radar, per se.

Between WWI and WWII, the Germans had developed underwater mines that were set off by the
magnetism of passing ships' hulls requiring no direct contact with the targets. The U.S. countered by
developing minesweepers that were successful in setting off the German mines with the use of low frequency
AC current-carrying cables dragged in the water over the sides, much in the manner of
commercial fishing nets. The AC current from the cables activated the mines' detectors thus exploding
them at a safe distance. The Germans responded by developing a nasty new mine anchored to the
bottom that would not explode when their detectors were activated but would, instead, rise to the surface
to get the minesweeper. There were many fatalities and keeping the U.S. shipping lanes open became a
major problem.

As a civilian working for a U.S. Navy contractor, Bell Laboratories, Beckwith was involved in sonar
and communications tests over the course of many months. At the time, he was told that Vannevar
Bush -- the Presidential appointee in charge of the Office of Scientific Research and Development -- had
commissioned his project. Initial tests were carried out in a secret lake in New Jersey. Later, he says
tests were carried out in Long Island Sound using the experimental minesweeper IX-97 and the private
yacht Sardonix. The Navy's underwater sound lab in New London, Connecticut was also utilized.
There were other ways around the problem of the new German mine that were evidently tested as
well. In January of 1943, Beckwith says he attended an initial briefing with the father of the atom
[should be the hydrogen] bomb -- Dr. Edward Teller. Teller described to him a small-scale
teleportation demonstration by Nikola Tesla which he intended to duplicate using a full-scale
minesweeper.


18 months later in June of 1944, while Beckwith was running his advanced sonar tests aboard the IX-
97, he recalls overhearing the enlisted shipmates' repeated remarks about the apparent results of Teller's
secret teleportation project. A very strange series of incidents were reported to have taken place during
a previous clandestine experiment aboard the IX-97 in which Beckwith was not personally involved.

The details of the stories he continually overhead from his fellow shipmates are strikingly similar to the
salient features of the Philadelphia Experiment legend. These highlights included the accidental
teleportation of a Navy vessel from Philadelphia to a naval base in Virginia and the horrible
consequence of a sailor's body becoming fused with the ship's hull. Beckwith is convinced that these
anecdotes -- which he overheard from the crew about the previous experiment aboard the IX-97 -- were
about the real Philadelphia Experiment.


In a letter to me, Beckwith writes: "As I have said in my book Hypotheses (published in 1996), the
remarkable time-reversal trip of the previous experiment on the IX-97 was common scuttlebutt shared
with me at meals, etc. during 'my' experiment. … The stories (I constantly overhead) were about the
disappearance and movement of the IX-97 and disturbing results that led the skipper and experimenters
to quickly shut down the experiment when they suddenly found themselves at the dock in Newport
News, Virginia where the ship had been berthed 2 weeks previously."

Beckwith's testimony is a very interesting and exciting development in the unraveling of this WWII
secret.
Conspicuously absent from this version of the Philadelphia Experiment are the figures of John
von Neumann, "Dr. Rinehart", and the USS Eldridge which are all normally associated with the legend.
Beckwith is convinced that these details are part of the disinformational campaign set up by the Navy to
confuse the issue and discredit accounts of what actually took place.


In another letter to me, he says: "My first meeting before the experiment was with Dr. Edward
Teller. He had been assigned to the anti-sonar project by the President. Dr. Teller told of an experiment
done by Tesla in 1907 where Tesla moved an object along a laboratory bench, then turned on his
electric field making the object move back in time to its original position. When the power was
turned off, the object moved forward to its place in present time. … Teller said he had no time to repeat
Tesla's work and had to believe it would work when scaled up to the size of an experimental
minesweeper (the IX-97). The plan was to add a third current-conductor high in the rigging of the boat,
forming a 3-phase field. High-current rotating generators manufactured by GE at the Pittsfield,
Massachusetts plant supplied the 3 currents."
Beckwith saw these "time-travel" generators located at the rear of the craft. They consisted of 3
single-phase units placed 120 electrical degrees apart. Each unit was approximately 5' tall by 2' in
diameter. The generators put out low voltage but did more than 1,000 amps. … The proposition of
Beckwith's real Philadelphia Experiment aboard the IX-97 had nothing whatsoever to do with
radar invisibility. It was actually an elaboration of Nikola Tesla's earlier work in teleportation.
Beckwith conjectures that the premise of Teller's IX-97 test was to teleport the minesweeper to a
previous point in its space-time trajectory by encapsulating the boat in a highly specialized 3-phase
"electromagnetic bottle". As incredible as it sounds, this would allow a ship to "blip" out of the way of a
mine to safety. He proposes that the Experiment's intent was to give a U.S. vessel -- at the flip of a
switch -- the instantaneous ability to be physically removed from the universal space-time coordinate in
which it detected the presence of an enemy mine.
Beckwith suggests that the creation of such a
separated space-time field can be done by engaging the principles of what he calls "divided space".

In his book Hypotheses, Beckwith develops a series of fascinating postulates based on some
premises which I will grossly oversimplify here. [The strong nuclear force which holds an atomic
nucleus together] can be broken with the application of what is called "a 3-phase neutrino field" which,
in turn, creates a bubble of "divided space". Beckwith explains that a related phenomenon which occurs
haphazardly in Nature is "ball lightning". Interestingly enough, such ball lightning or "Tesla balls"
have figured repeatedly in UFO eyewitness accounts.

… he explains: "A space divided from universal space can be created by causing a small percentage
of neutrinos [that permeate all matter in our Universe] passing through the space to travel in a vortex
rotating at a frequency in the order of 7.5 Hertz. Strong force lines at the boundaries of the space are
interrupted so long as the vortex exists. This twisting field is necessary to break the field of strong force
lines between all matter in universal space and to create an inner space separated from universal space."
"If a rotating magnetic field is operated in synchronism with the Earth's 7.32-Hz fundamental
resonance, objects within one such space can be moved with respect to our 'universal space' when power
is applied. The divided space is then free of forces of inertia or gravity. Once the space is divided,
objects within the space may levitate, teleport, or move in time. Divided inner space can pass through
universal space but is dependent on the drag and surface sharpness between spaces being low enough to
prevent piercing the shell of the missing strong force lines. Electromagnetic waves -- including visible
light and infrared heat -- can pass through the boundaries of the divided spaces."

As to how these hypotheses apply to his recollection of the minesweeper's layout and how this
teleportation experiment played out, he says: "… I believe 3-phase currents were placed through the
wires at a low frequency. This frequency was most likely the 7.32 Hz fundamental frequency
recognized by Tesla and first measured by Jack Shulman. As they gradually eased the power up, the
experimenters found that lower power levels had no noticeable effect. Suddenly, a frequency threshold
was crossed and wham! they traveled back 2 weeks in time instead of the desired 15 minutes-or-so to get
out of the way of a mine. Once separated, the inner space containing the ship apparently moved back to
a time when the ship was berthed at Newport News, Virginia."

"… Turning off the power when the skipper saw what had happened reconnected the divided space
to universal space, jerking the boat back the Philadelphia Navy yard harbor. The return of the IX-97 to
Philadelphia was within seconds of the time it left …"

"Retired Army Intelligence officer, Col. Phillip J. Corso has confirmed the experiment from work
he did with Admiral Burke while Chairman and chief policy maker of President Eisenhower's National
Security Administration. Corso tells me of Burke's knowledge of the experiment and his deep concern
and his regret over the loss of life that resulted. Corso tells me that my recall of the event has greater
detail than any other course that he knows of. He tells me that the Project continued and has progressed
greatly since then."

The implications [of the last statement] are mind-boggling. Was it an oblique reference … to the Montauk Project?
Could an entire underground base be constructed and maintained within the field of a divided space within a
"bubble" reality that is slightly out-of-phase with and imperceptible from the perspective of everyday universal space?
[note: Preston Nichols maintains that he held 2 jobs -- one with AIL labs and the other as assistant director of the Montauk Project --
at the SAME time on alternate timelines.] Does the military today possess aircraft that have onboard generators which create
these three-phase divided space fields? If so, could the extremely fast 45-degree angle turning UFOs reported worldwide actually
be the witnessed maneuvers of super high-tech human military craft? Could the "Tesla balls" reported in the vicinity of UFOs be
"droplets" of the divided space energy field that have dripped off of aircraft equipped with these generators?"


The funny thing is, that she wrote this for Sky Books, publishers of "The Montauk Experiment" Series. It even has chapter at the end
by Peter Moon (to be looked at separately from Miss Bruce's work).

Now I'm certain that more than a few of you are rolling your eyes at the mention of Phillip J. Corso of "The Day After Roswell" Infamy.

Folks In Ufology tend to be very binary about these things. "He's a fake". The End. "It's a hoax". The End. And so on.

As Miss Bruce lays out In her excellent book, people that are Involved In deep Black projects occasionally get what I called "scrambled".
False memories, induced psychosis, etc. So there's actual knowledge In their mind, and recollections of things, but it's so scrambled,
that they can be easily written off by the average person.

That's actually the Inherent beauty of things like mind control, dimensional travel, etc. How would the average person actually know if it's real?

They can't. Especially not by speculating endlessly on Internet forums about it (not that there's anything wrong with that). :D

And then you put a few actual psychotics, and schizophrenics into the mix, and throw them out into the public, and at UFO/Conspiracy
conferences, and YouTube, and...You get the picture.

So these various people (The Allendes, Schneiders, Lazars) get ridiculed, and their stories dismissed, as the real work continues.

People may want to do research on how actual psyop campaigns are run. It'll be eye opening, that's for sure. It'll teach you to spot potential
dinsinfo agents anywhere, Ufology, Media, News, etc.

When it comes to things like this, think of a Russian Baboshka doll. Truths within truths. Lies within lies. Grey areas abound.

And make no mistake, that's Intentional.

Cheers!


 
Here's an encapsulation of Alexandra Bruce's thoughts on the whole affair:

"The Montauk PsyOp

By Alexandra Bruce


There is evidence that the urban legends of the Philadelphia Experiment and its sequel, the Montauk Project are a long-term psyop. It is worthwhile to look at these historical memes in this light, especially in the face of the larger, ongoing psyop of which they are but a small part, that of the military industrial media.

The shopworn Philadelphia Experiment saga, involving the U.S.S. Eldridge was publicized and promoted by the Navy itself. Had the Navy not done so in 1955, then movies based on it would not have been released in 1984 and in 1993 - and Preston Nichols would not have spawned a series of nine books beginning in 1992, which continue to churn the waters of conspiracy culture to this day.

In 1955, the Office of Naval Research in Washington, D.C. took it upon itself to advertise the legend of the 1943 Philadelphia Experiment. Special Projects Officer, Captain Sidney Sherby and Commander George Hoover commissioned the Varo Manufacturing Company in Garland, Texas to publish 100 copies of the strangely annotated version of Morris K. Jessup's The Case for the UFO, which they claimed had been anonymously mailed to their office.

In the margins of this book were the traumatized scrawlings of a seeming madman, who claimed to have witnessed the legendary events, involving the Destroyer Escort, U.S.S. Eldridge, events now popularly known as the Philadelphia Experiment. These deranged doodles, eventually ascribed to one "Carlos Allende", supposedly impressed the Navy officers with their savvy of high tech, futuristic concepts and their bandying about of an "insider's" hyperdimensional jargon. What exactly was the Navy's intent, in spreading the Philadelphia Experiment rumor within the community of people who read UFO books in 1955?

In hindsight, ex-Navy enlistee "Allende", a.k.a. Carl Allen, appears to have been an early MK Ultra test subject. Similarly, the Montauk Project sequel was originally disseminated in 1992 by Preston Nichols and Al Bielek, two self-described ex-military informants, who claimed to have been brainwashed. It could be inferred that the Philadelphia Experiment and Montauk Project memes are part of a Cold War study in the propagation of a hyperdimensional paradigm. The potential uses of such an operation will be discussed in a moment.

These stories are not just mind viruses, engineered for kicks by the Office of Naval Intelligence. Like any good disinformation, these legends have some basis in truth. Earlier research by this author has found that a secret project with the same tragic results of the popularly known Philadelphia Experiment legend may, indeed have been conducted during that same time frame - but on another vessel, the U.S.S. Martha's Vineyard. Likewise, there is no shortage of proof that mind control experiments similar to those described in the Montauk Project book series have been conducted by the U.S. Government - though there is no solid proof that these ever actually occurred at Montauk.

High strangeness has long been a fact of life for the inhabitants of Long Island's East End, but this does not mean that the Montauk Project legend is not a psyop, cooked up to divert serious investigations into such unconscionable crimes as radiation experiments on unwitting populations there and elsewhere. Nor is it, as some wags have concluded, merely a pederastic scam to lure young boys in for a bit of hands-on, tantric "deprogramming."

It has long been observed by dedicated researchers of National Security subjects, that when sensitive military secrets are threatening to leak, a colorful cast of cranks will show up to contaminate the issue with their demented discourse. In the case of the Montauk Project, this production was a brilliant, pre-emptive masterpiece.

This is not in any way to disparage the people who have bravely come forward with their fascinating testimonies. When someone tells you that they have been brainwashed and that moreover they cannot disclose any secrets, which they have taken life-threatening oaths to keep, it is a clear way of telling the reader not to take what they are saying literally - period.

Getting hung up on the truth or falsity of certain experiencer claims is to miss the point of what is vital about this story, though the truths of MK Ultra, human radiation experiments and non-lethal weapons could go a long way to elucidating some of the erratic behaviors abounding in the show.

Despite its manifest dubiousness, the Montauk Project allegory remains compelling. It goes beyond satisfying the conspiracy junkie's craving for sheer outlandishness; it suggests the possibility of a "way out" of our dismal planetary morass.

Within this pack of lies known as the Montauk Project, we find the ultimate truth of manifold, nested frequencies of multidimensional and parallel reality fields co-existing within and around us, sub-spatially, hyper-spatially and in every infinite sidereal vector in between. We find the ultimate secret of vast, untapped human potentials being jealously guarded by the military.

Here is where we get to the potential uses of this meme in mass consciousness: it is not only a latent means of tracking the general population's ability to grasp such concepts. It is a way to get the readers' consciousnesses to resonate with potential parallel realities - where events like those described in the Montauk Project books are actually taking place - creating a peer-to-peer bridge between the readers in this universe and parallel versions of themselves existing in reality fields such as those described. It could be a form of mass consciousness entrainment, on a multiversal scale, targeted to the group of individuals who resonate with this information.

Remember the above the next time Fox News tries to feed you some line of crap. Your thoughtforms and beliefs may have important ramifications, not only on this world but on countless parallel worlds.

Funny, how when theories of parallel universes are applied to reality, conventional mentalities just can't handle it. If the above paragraphs sound like crackpot stuff to you, check out the in-depth article by Max Tegmark in the May 2003 issue of Scientific American, which discusses the concepts that make what I have written above a real possibility:

http://space.mit.edu/home/tegmark/PDF/multiverse_sciam.pdf

Despite any potential nefarious applications, the dodgy claims of Montauk Project proponents paradoxically contain an unexpected and uplifting subtext about the power of human consciousness, of the human being's integral, interactive relationship with the nonstop creation of the multiverse.

In this unlikely setting of a parable about bogus secret government experiments, we encounter the potential of planetary redemption: the immense, holographic multidimensionality of the human soul and clues about the road home to God.

Alexandra Bruce is the author of The Philadelphia Experiment Murder: Parallel Universes and the Physics of Insanity and an upcoming book about this subject, The Montauk PsyOp: Time Travel, Mind Control & Disinformation.

"The Montauk PsyOp" book never came out.


So these "crazy" people, with their "crazy" stories, may not be quite so crazy after all.:D

Gene, and Chris, you may want to have Alexandra on, IF she's willing to talk about it (she said she never would again. Her life supposedly got a little crazy, while researching all of this).

Cheers!

The Montauk Project was a pretty new concept to me when I listened to the show last week. I thought it was a great episode. I think the best shows are the most pinpointed, like that one was. Sure, the philosophy of the paranormal and forteana is great fodder for conversation, but I think there's been so much of that going around lately that we're missing opportunities to further explore specific cases. This is not just aimed at The Paracast, it's every podcast in the genre. Bring me accounts and witnesses and high strangeness.
