## Resource

On February 27, 2026, retired Air Force Major General William “Neil” McCasland walked out of his Albuquerque home and vanished, leaving his phone and glasses behind but taking his gun, wallet, and backpack. Once commander of Wright‑Patterson’s secretive lab and linked to UFO insider Tom DeLonge, McCasland disappeared just days after President Trump ordered the release of UFO and alien files. In this episode, we unravel his classified past, his eerie ties to UFO disclosure, and the leading theories about what really happened to the general who knew too much.
