Foo Fighters/ Nazi ufo's

Recently alot of programs have been coming on saying stuff about nazi ufo's and whatnot, Not sure if anyone believes. but its a good point to discuss on this forum.

see myth of secret nazi antartica base,is this it?

 

In the case of Foo Fighters (which appeared as small glowing orbs, or large fireballs in the sky, could not be shot down or outmaneuvered) both sides of the war reported seeing them (and there are several pictures of Foo Fighters). Not entirely sure how they got the name - Foo Fighters - but it seems that pilots on both sides saw them.

 

If I'm not mistaken the name Foo Fighter came from an poorly enunciated use of the french word for false "faux", which should really be pronounced like the english word foe. So "faux (false) fighter" became Foo Fighter.

Of course it is also possible the french word if pronounced properly (foe) would lead to confusion as to whether it was a "real fighter",i.e. a foe, or just a false fighter (faux). At least that is the story as I've been able to sort of put it together.

 

foo is slang for a ufo clint....

 

I don't think so, and I’m sorry, but I remain under the impression that the United States Air Forced coined the term UFO in 1952 (post war) and they initially defined UFOs as those objects that remain unidentified after scrutiny by expert investigators.

From Wiki of course, but still it links to the USAF document.

Unidentified flying object - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Here is the biblio section:

Air Force Regulation 200-2 text versionpdf of document, initially defined a UFO as "any airborne object that by performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features, does not conform to any presently known aircraft or missile type, or that cannot be positively identified as a familiar object." The Air Force added that "Technical Analysis thus far has failed to provide a satisfactory explanation for a number of sightings reported." A later version [1] altered the definition to "Any aerial phenomena, airborne objects or objects that are unknown or appear out of the ordinary to the observer because of performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features," and added "Air Force activities must reduce the percentage of unidentifieds to a minimum. Analysis thus far has explained all but a few of the sightings reported. These unexplained sightings are carried statistically as unidentifieds."

I think stretching the name UFO into Foo Fighter is not the way it came to be. My Dad who flew (C-47s) in the ETO said he never heard the term UFOs until the fifties, nor the term "flying saucers, but he was well aware of Foo Fighters without ever hearing the term unidentified flying object.

A "Foo" was a false fighter, a distracting ball of light which could be seen but not attacked.

 

here is a wiki interpretation clint..

Foo fighter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

True, but the UFO term was post war, and applied to an existing term of "Foo Fighter" retrospectively. Not the reverse. When Foo Fighters were encountered and named in the forties, the term UFO wasn't being used.

 

interesting stuff clint,does this ring any bells as a possible?

In the 1938 comic strip Smokey Stover, a firefighter was known for his line, "Where there's foo, there's fire." From Smokey, aircraft pilots borrowed the term "foo fire" to describe the various unexplainable phenomenon seen in the skies over Europe and the Pacific theatre during World War II. While Allied pilots initially thought the flying objects were German secret or psychological weapons, after the war it was discovered that sightings were also reported by the enemy, who had assumed the crafts were US-made. To this day, the sightings remain a mystery.

 

Just to throw a spanner in the works here.

The French word for "fire" is "feu" hence Smokey Stover's comedic mispronunciation of it.

The rest is history.

I did interview an RCAF Lancaster rear gunner in 1993 who was adamant as to what he had seen in late 1944 and from his description it was exactly as depicted in the first episode of the TV series "Taken"

 

Now that is another interesting slant on this since the "Foo Fighters" were seen as "balls of fire'!

 

moving closer clint,keep the theories coming...

 

have this one on me clint..ha! ha! its him!!!

 

I see he invented the Segway too.

 

I think that nazi's invented foo fighters

 

Interesting theory - do you have any evidence to support it ?

That site is very entertaining. Utter nonsense, but entertaining nonsense. I had a few drinks last night when I was reading it, and found the bit about thousands of nazis living under the south pole, undetected almost plausible.

I woke up this morning and thought "Nazi UFO's? What the hell was I thinking?" An excellent illustration of the evils of the demon drink.

 

If you thought that was "entertaining", goto this place and read away. Be sure to remain seated at all times, otherwise it is possible to "laugh your a** off" completely. It covers the mysterious Vril, Nazi Flying Saucers, Vril energy used to power them, and other "wonder weapons". Some of which actually existed, most of the more "wonderful"; didn't.

All UFOs, SS colonies and Fireballs aside, that Antarctic hole does look quite intriguing. To me it looks like the opening of a hanger as if the plane was coming out at a 35 degree angle. But hey the power of suggestion is quite strong
