So “credibility” is the attribute you are trying to establish with so called witnesses. It seems like, at least in the UFO arena, that there is no full proof way to confirm credibility. It’s always a good move to play the skeptic card!

Military personnel are definitely more credible than average Joe, but most of the time they don’t present any “holy shit what is that?!” Type of evidence. Even first hand experience only goes so far without some type of evidence.
Agreed. There is a definite hard stop to the trail. On a slightly different note, I reckon we will start seeing more mainstream media pushing a “first contact” narrative and the flavour will change from bad alien to neutral/possibly half decent alien.
