AFOSI is the Air Force and Space Force investigative agency for counterintelligence, criminal matters, fraud, cyber threats, and force protection.
The Air Force Office of Special Investigations is the federal investigative and counterintelligence agency serving the Department of the Air Force. Established in 1948, AFOSI investigates felony crimes, fraud, espionage, terrorism, cyber threats, and risks to Air Force and Space Force personnel and resources. Its agents operate at installations and deployed locations worldwide.
AFOSI records differ from scientific or operational case files. An agent may investigate security, deception, unauthorized disclosure, or foreign activity connected to an incident without determining its physical nature. Reports can contain witness statements, leads, and liaison material whose source status must be preserved. AFOSI has operated since 1948 and maintains field offices and specialized units around the world. Its agents investigate offenses involving Air Force and Space Force personnel or resources, conduct counterintelligence, and provide threat information to commanders. It is separate from installation security forces and from technical laboratories that analyze sensors or materials. Case files can include interviews, forensic work, liaison reporting, and command notifications, with release constrained by privacy, law-enforcement, and security rules.
The organization appears in historical UFO cases and allegations of intimidation, disinformation, or witness contact. Its relationship to the USAF and base security makes involvement plausible where an event affects protected assets. That does not validate every “men in black” narrative or show that AFOSI possessed recovered technology.
AFOSI’s role in UAP investigations is bounded by law-enforcement and counterintelligence authority. A credible account identifies the case number, office, purpose, and disposition. Contact by an agent proves an investigation occurred, not the extraordinary explanation a witness may attach to it.

Written by Christopher Sharp - 26 September 2026 If the White House’s UFO disclosure effort ends here, the gatekeepers can breathe easy. Much of the imagery released under PURSUE remains too ambiguous to settle the questions it raises, leaving plenty of room for online argument. Many of the other documents have been seen before. Release of any groundbreaking footage has been hindered. Two videos allegedly showing a 100-foot triangular UFO over a Colorado military base were said to be held by...
[Retweeted] @SeanParnellASW, WHERE ARE THE PHONE VIDEOS OF BLACK TRIANGLES FILMED OVER CHEYENNE MOUNTAIN SF COMPLEX THAT WERE SEIZED BY AFOSI? Are they playing games with you, or are you playing games with us @StephenM? "Two videos, recorded on a service member’s personal cellphone on consecutive nights in 2023, are among the pieces of evidence whistleblowers say still cannot be discussed or released publicly because they remain classified by the Air Force, sources said. Those videos which ca...
Happy birthday to the US Air Force. Meanwhile @RealAFOSI agents have been used to retaliate against people connected to UAP whistleblowers by going after their families. Congress needs to investigate who is tasking them and end it. https://t.co/upEbq6kvSL
Was interested to note DOD's acquisition of NUFOHRC includes records from APRO. As many will remember, APRO is the organization Mr. Paul Bennewitz was a member of while he was investigating the cattle mutilation phenomenon in Dulce, NM (along with NM Trooper Gabe Valdez, Manny Gomez and others). It was during this time that Bennewitz came into contact with Special Agent Rick Doty AFOSI, who was ordered to disinform Paul and use him to conduct an information war against the broader UFO communi...

That number goes down every time I hear him. Has anyone inde...
