UFO Post

There seems to be a confusion about the staffing of this post. It was a Band D (previous currency Executive Officer) post and not at Band C1 (SEO) as some people seem to think. I should know I was the line manager for the post for several recent years. The UFO community owe the last incumbent a great deal as he had the drive to push for publishing the reports of sightings more widely. What there is now access to in the public domain is all that is held by the MOD.

Mr Pope was a previous incumbent of the post at the same grade -perhaps the true level of staffing may have been inflated in discussions within the UFO community over the years. Of course the memory goes as staff leave and follow different career paths!
