Case description

Retired General James Harold Doolittle was working as a VP for Shell Oil and was sent by them to investigate the recent Ghost Rocket invasion. While there he took a side trip to Spitzbergen Norway to see a crashed craft with 7 burnt alien bodies. According to some sailors, the ufo and bodies were transported back to the US via the USS Alabama. In the years following General Doolittle continued to have some interesting space related duties: In March 1951 General Doolittle was appointed a special assistant to the Air Force chief of staff, serving as a civilian in scientific matters which led to Air Force ballistic missile and space programs. He retired from Air Force duty Feb. 28, 1959 but continued to serve his country as chairman of the board of Space Technology Laboratories. He also was the first president of the Air Force Association, in 1947, assisting its organization. On April 4, 1985, the U.S. Congress advanced him to full general on the Air Force retired list. In a later ceremony, President Reagan and Senator Goldwater pinned on his four-star insignia, making him the first person in Air Force Reserve history to wear four stars. Was any of this related to the crashed ufo and burnt alien bodies?
