K. Gösta Rehn

A Swedish ufologist and APRO representative, K. Gösta Rehn turns up across several Nordic cases. On Gotland, he looked into the Lergravsviken discs of 1957. In July 1962, Col. Bror von Vegesack gave him a four-word verdict on Åkerberg's sighting. We don't know what it is. Rehn's 1966 book, De flygande tefaten: Dokument och teori, carried the 1953 Skåne disc seen by Transair Captain Ulf Christiernsson, one of only three Swedish cases in its pages. He also wrote the 1981 Nordic UFO Newsletter account of Reidar Salvesen's 1970 Helleland encounter.
