Dylan Borland is a U.S. Air Force veteran and former geospatial intelligence specialist. He served on active duty from 2010 to 2013 and was stationed at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia from 2011 to 2013, supporting round-the-clock manned and unmanned aerial-vehicle operations for Special Operations Forces. He later worked for BAE Systems and Intrepid Solutions as a senior analyst specializing in video, radar, and advanced electro-optical imagery used to identify aerial, naval, and ground orders of battle.

Borland’s public UAP account begins with an incident he says occurred at Langley during the summer of 2012. In his written congressional statement, he described seeing an approximately 100-foot equilateral triangular craft travel from near a NASA hangar and pass within about 100 feet of his position. Borland said the object was silent, interfered with his phone, appeared to have a fluid or dynamic surface, and climbed to commercial-jet altitude within seconds without producing noticeable wind or kinetic disturbance.

Borland has also stated that a later sensitive position within a Special Access Program exposed him to classified information about what he describes as a legacy UAP crash-retrieval effort. He says intelligence personnel approached him with concerns about misconduct and retaliation inside those programs. According to his testimony, those experiences led him to come forward in March 2023, meet with the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office later that month, and provide a recorded statement under oath to the Intelligence Community Inspector General in August 2023.

On September 9, 2025, Borland testified publicly before the House Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets during its hearing on UAP transparency and whistleblower protection. He repeated his Langley account, described his alleged exposure to classified UAP information, and said that government agencies had obstructed his employment, manipulated security-clearance records, and subjected him to other reprisals after he attempted to report what he knew. The committee presented him as a UAP witness and Air Force veteran.

Since the hearing, Borland has continued speaking publicly about the Langley incident, the official reporting process, alleged legacy programs, and the treatment of national-security whistleblowers. His appearances have included extended interviews with Weaponized and American Alchemy, where he expanded on his military intelligence work, his reported encounter, and his experiences with AARO and the ICIG. His public identity now combines three parts of the same career arc: trained imagery analyst, firsthand UAP witness, and former intelligence contractor advocating for whistleblower protection and government disclosure.

Dylan Borland, re the new PURSUE NDA waiver: "I'm glad that they're waiving NDAs for everybody who was on the Defense Department side... It doesn't change the Intelligence Community side.” And what do WE, the public want: Complete Disclosure. No more fine print. https://t.co/gOMQFL4OSb

The world’s most prominent UFO whistleblowers have formed an unprecedented coalition to ask President Trump to waive their government nondisclosure agreements — which they say are preventing them from sharing what they know about extraterrestrial life with the American public. Dylan Borland, David Grusch and Matthew Brown say they accumulated the information while working in highly classified government programs and are legally barred from discussing it publicly without White House interventi...

"Dylan Borland, David Grusch and Matthew Brown say they accumulated the information while working in highly classified government programs and are legally barred from discussing it publicly without White House intervention." If Trump authorizes the removal of public-facing NDAs, even for a week or two, then we'd truly enter the Age of Disclosure. https://t.co/rsg1O2qczz

I appreciate the positivity, @ProfAviLoeb, but it doesn't jive with what whistleblowers are saying. Loeb: "Trump’s directive to understand UAP would reverbera [Quoted] I attended a meeting of the UAP Governance Board on September 11, 2026 at the ODNI. That ODNI room was filled with honorable representatives from all branches of the executive branch of the U.S. government. The mood was sober and serious, following the deep interest in UAP from the White House. In my short presentation I clarif...

“If @StephenM and @realDonaldTrump wanted to actually know some stuff, they could call us into the White House right now, and I can throw down, and so can the rest of them.” ~Borland (Rhetorical: Why don't they?) 🛸🔥 New Borland in Wired Mag Article 🔥 🛸 "[The new NDA waiver] changes nothing. [It] just repeated what we've been told for three, four years. ~@TheDylanBorland (I wasn't too excited when this "new" waiver was announced, and wondered if I was being too negative.

Excellent article, featuring quotes from @TheDylanBorland and @MvonRen https://t.co/PqKV5LBft0 [Quoted] The Defense Department issued a legal waiver authorizing current and former personnel to share unidentified anomalous phenomena–related classified information, but it doesn’t extend to other agencies. https://t.co/vXBiYBQ9hO

On top of that DoW needs to apologise to whistleblowers for the conduct of AARO. The attacks on whistleblowers such as Grusch verged on unhinged. Trust is ear [Quoted] If I was advising WH etc, my first step would be an apology. ODNI / Aaron Lukas should apologise to people like Dylan Borland and Matthew Brown following their experience with DIG. https://t.co/1W8EEO49kH
