1949 USAF Scientific Advisory Board (Presumed)

With the writing of a new report, a new list of "consultants" was added to the report on data collected by the USAF Project Blue Book. It is assumed that these constituted a new, or added version, of the Scientific Advisory Board.  This was at a time when Project SIGN was being changed to Project GRUDGE. As many have noted the name may have indeed reflected the attitude of the USAF for the task dumped into their lap. Later notations and reports will indicate the fact that at various times the project was one they wished to terminate. Yet, some agency unnamed repeatedly pushes the task right back into the USAF lap


Among those listed as "consultants" were:

Ohio University

The RAND Corporation

Dr. G.E. Valley

Dr. Paul Fills

Air Weather Service

the 3610th Electronics Section

the U.S. Weather Bureau

Dr. J. Allen Hynek.
