"The entire world is going to know who they are. I have had quite enough of bearing this burden alone. F**k them." - Kevin Day
"I was sworn to track and report all air contacts detected by SPY radar, including identification, flight safety, and tactical recommendations. This was my duty, just as it was for everyone else. Yet, I am of the very, very few who truly fulfilled that duty to our country. That is, did our jobs.
In return, I lost my career, ended up destitute in the Kalmiopsis Wilderness, and went through a painful divorce after a 30-year marriage with an ex-wife who even attempted to KILL me with a sword. I lost the respect of my fellow warfighters and endured relentless ridicule. I have faced it all, seemingly in vain.
I now realize I was on a misguided quest, and I should have known that most were too cowardly to stand up. Only a few of the pilots and enlisted personnel involved showed true courage.
Let's see. Aboard the PRINCETON, the key players were the CO, Tactical Action Officer (TAO), Anti-Air Warfare Coordinator (AAWC), Air Interceptor Controller (AIC), and the Electronic Warfare Coordinator (EWC). Names to follow.
The key players in the 2004 Nimitz Tic Tac encounter were:
Captain David Fravor - Commanding Officer of VFA-41, the Black Aces squadron. He was one of the fighter pilots who visually observed and engaged with the Tic Tac UFO.
Thank God some of the pilots showed REAL courage. Fravor is a hero even though he is an egotistical asshole. Beyond belief. I am not the only one that knows that.
2. Lieutenant Commander (LCDR) Jim Slaight - A pilot from VFA-41 who was also involved in the encounter. He was flying alongside Captain Fravor during the engagement.
3. Lieutenant (LT) Chad Underwood - A pilot from VFA-41 who recorded the encounter on video. His footage, known as the "FLIR1" video, captured the Tic Tac object from his fighter jet.
4. Captain Carl E. Smith - Commanding Officer of the USS Princeton (CG-59), the Ticonderoga-class cruiser that was part of the Nimitz carrier group.
5. Lieutenant Commander (LCDR) Jason "Jay" Turner - Tactical Actions Officer (TAO) aboard the USS Princeton, responsible for overseeing the ship’s combat operations and radar systems.
6. Lieutenant Commander (LCDR) Brian C. R. “B.C.” Powers - Anti-Air Warfare Coordinator (AAWC) aboard the USS Princeton, responsible for managing the ship's air defense operations.
7. Captain Robert "Bob" T. “Bobby” McCullough - Commander of Carrier Strike Group 11, which included the USS Nimitz and its associated ships.
These individuals played significant roles in the events and subsequent investigations related to the Tic Tac UFO encounter.
The pilots that have come forward are true heroes. However, focusing on them is missing the forest in the trees. The people with the real story were aboard ships dealing with these unknown air contacts for ~10 days. The pilots were only involved for perhaps 10 minutes. I know, I know. The Tom Cruise factor. I get it but that alone demonstrates just how misguided and unserious this entire investigative effort by Congress has been. A concocted hoax designed to scratch an itch hopefully putting the issue to rest -- it failed! I won. Check & Mate.
In 2004, the captain of the USS Princeton (CG-59), a Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser in the United States Navy, was Captain Carl E. Smith. He was in command during the famous "Tic Tac" UFO incident, where the ship's radar systems tracked unidentified flying objects off the coast of Southern California.
During the 2004 "Tic Tac" UFO incident involving the USS Princeton, the Tactical Actions Officer (TAO) was Lieutenant Commander (LCDR) Jason "Jay" Turner. As the TAO, he was responsible for overseeing the ship's combat operations, including managing the radar and tracking systems that detected the unidentified flying objects.
It’s been almost 20 years since the TIC TAC incident, and yet most of those who were involved seem too focused on protecting their own interests to speak out about what really happened. I’ve lost respect for every single one of you who lacks the courage to come forward, especially the officers. Even after Congress lifted the NDA you signed, you’ve remained silent—a silence that loudly proclaims, "I’m a coward." And sadly, that’s exactly what you are.
Without me speaking out early and often. And hiding smoking gun evidence in the Library of Congress in 2009. The world would have never even heard about TIC TAC. Fravor et al (the pilots) came forward because I did. I do not like Fravor personally, he reminds me of Trump, but the man does have courage. Or, is simply stupid like me.
I'm not on X. Feel free to post for me there. I have my reasons. Forward and repost if you want to. Thank you in advance. My goal is the get the ship watchstanders in front of Congress. Pilots alone? Pure hoax designed to put this to rest. It is not going to work." - Kevin Day

Discussions of UFO/UAP incidents have been gaining momentum, and the collective of humanity is starting to ask more questions and look up more often. More things are going to happen, more photographs and videos are going to be coming out. This will not stop, and will eventually reach a point where all of humanity will change as we realize we are not alone. I look forward to more information coming out, more videos and evidence being declassified so it's coming from an official channel. I think within 5 years of this post, we will see UFOs openly in the skies and be on the verge of full disclosure and open contact. We have a ways to go but we are on the cusp and I am so excited for what is to come.

Really cool comment I found on that original reddit discussion:
Kevin, like your self, I worked on sophisticated Radar systems during the sixties, as part of Fighter Commands defense of Britain's shores. On numerous occasions, we observed, tracked and Identified, craft that were travelling at speeds far beyond the capacity of our fighters. Whilst moving at 4,700 miles an hour, they would negotiate a turn of 90 degrees at 65 thousand feet. Our physics do not allow for that to happen! Most fighters then, could achieve speeds approaching 2000 MPH., therefore scrambling became pointless. They would "show off", down the whole coast of Britain, before heading for Scandinavia! As it is today, there was not an agency established to handle such reports so they die a natural death. However, we are all of the belief, that recent evidence, will force the hands of all global authorities and their task will be, how to inform the public!!
More information on the 2004 USS Nimitz incident:
On November 14, 2004, fighter pilot Commander David Fravor of the USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group claims to have investigated radar indications of a possible target off the coast of southern California.[4][5][6][7] Fravor said the operator had told him that the USS Princeton (CG-59), part of the strike group, had been tracking unusual aircraft for two weeks prior to the incident. The aircraft would appear at 80,000 feet (24,000 m) before descending rapidly toward the sea, and stopping at 20,000 feet (6,100 m) and hovering.[4] Fravor reported that he saw an object, white and oval, hovering above an ocean disturbance. He estimated that the object was about 40 feet (12 m) long.[7][4] Fravor and another pilot, Alex Dietrich, said in an interview that a total of four people (two pilots and two weapons systems officers in the back seats of the two airplanes) witnessed the object for about 5 minutes.[8] Fravor says that as he spiraled down to get closer to the object, the object ascended, mirroring the trajectory of his airplane, until the object disappeared.[8] A second wave of fighters, which included weapons systems officer Lieutenant Commander Chad Underwood, took off from Nimitz to investigate.[9] Unlike Fravor, Underwood's fighter was equipped with an advanced infrared camera (FLIR).[9] Underwood recorded the FLIR video, and coined the description "Tic Tac" to describe the infrared image; Underwood would later explain the terminology was partially inspired by a joke in the 1980 comedy Airplane!.[10] Underwood did not try to see it, saying:
During 2014–2015, fighter pilots associated with the USS Theodore Roosevelt carrier strike group were operating off the East Coast of the United States when they recorded the GIMBAL and GOFAST videos while reporting instrument detections of unknown aerial objects which the pilots were unable to identify.[11][12]
"I was more concerned with tracking it, making sure that the videotape was on so that I could bring something back to the ship, so that the intel folks could dissect whatever it is that I captured."[9]
