Probed ingest of: The MITRE Corporation - UFO Reverse Engineering, USO Tracking, & Legacy Programs
UAP Gerb examines The MITRE Corporation as a proposed institutional layer within alleged U.S. UFO legacy programs, combining MITRE’s documented FFRDC role and SAGE history with accounts attributed to unnamed MITRE personnel. The episode maps claimed Navy-linked technology exploitation and USO tracking through Patuxent River and other facilities, then connects those allegations to Rep. Eric Burlison’s May 2026 records demand and MITRE’s stated archive review.
