Philadelphia Experirrent: UFO's
. .. "l"l" .. (l(lo ' '·
Over the years the Navy has received innumerable gueries about the
socalled •Philadelphia Experiment" or "Project" and the alleged role
of the Office of Naval Research (ONR) in it. The majority of these
inauiries are directed to the Office of Naval Research or to the Fourth~
Naval District in Philadelphia. The frequency of these queries predict-
ably intensifies each time the experiment is mentioned by the popular
press , often in a science fiction book.
Tne genesis of the Philadelphia Experiment myth dates back t o 1955 with
the publication of The case for UFO's by the late Morris K. Jessup.
0
Some time after the publication of the . book, Jessup received correspond-
ence from a Carlos Miguel Allende, who gave his address as R.D. tl, Box
223, New Ik. and showed it to Jessup. Jessup concluded that the writer of
the co~nts on his tx>ok was the same person who had written him about
the Philadelphia Experiment. These two officers personally had the book
retyped and arranged for the reprint, in typewritten form, of 25 copies.
Tne officers and their personal belongings have left ~~ rrany years ago,
and 0~ 6oes not have a file copy of the annotated book.
