Randy Koppang brings into focus the larger picture and covert human element of the UFO enigma. Juxtaposing the data of two independent UFO investigators - Melinda Leslie and Bill Uhouse - Koppang brings into the equation information strongly incriminating the military industrial complex in the UFO-ET abduction conundrum. As Koppang explains, "Information provided by Uhouse synergizes with the internal logic in Leslie's evidence for human information retrieval from ET-abductees." Uhouse was involved in the reverse engineering of ET craft, and Melinda Leslie is a UFO abductee and researcher into the HUMINT (human military intelligence) re-abduction phenomenon.

Koppang also brings in the work of Linda Moulton Howe and New Mexico state representative Andrew Kissner in UFO crash retrieval cases; specifically, radar shoot-down and collection scenarios in the 1940s-50s in New Mexico. Koppang refers to this information as "a set of historical factors," which "clearly remove any doubt about the fully conscious motives which instituted National Security policies for protecting assets retrieved from the flying disc phenomena." In other words, as Philip Corso disclosed in The Day After Roswell, the flying discs were defined as hostile and a military policy was implemented to bring them down as "assets" worth "protecting."

As Bill Uhouse states, "It's not the U.S. government - it's a government that's in a box, that's separate from the U.S. government - a satellite government." As Koppang figures, the "cover-up" may not be so much about refusal to officially confirm the presence of extraterrestrials as it is about avoiding publicity regarding manufacture of unconventional craft of ET origin. The ET abduction phenomenon is a human phenomenon as far as this knowledge base is concerned; the HUMINT re-abduction scenario is about culling this information from actual ET abductees. The agenda, Koppang says, is set by the technological advancement goals of a nebulous shadow government, which is tied into global domination via the weaponization of space.

As Koppang effectively elucidates, there's no way to subtract the role of intelligence from the role of ET data leaks like those of Bill Uhouse and Bob Lazar; but it's ultimately about damage control. The strategy is "camouflage through limited disclosure," a term made overt by Colonel Corso, from whom Koppang takes the book's title. If we were to find out that several saucers during this period of time came down because we shot them down, says Koppang, "these possible facts would entirely change historical connotations of both UFO and conventional post-World War II history." As he also concludes, these facts would also provide an explanation for the enigma of saucer crashes. Why did they crash at all? The passive phenomenon of "saucer crashes" is Orwellian Newspeak for an aggressive military shoot down policy.

Koppang makes a case for a new paradigm inclusive of an historic ET presence on earth, a presence which has been micromanaged. This book conveys a bigger picture of the ET presence and cover-up than has any UFO book in recent memory. And this might be just what the doctor ordered. As Randy says, we have now amassed nearly sixty years of data on the ET presence. We now need "a different model to explain all the facts about how the public is informed." The role played by military intelligence, as revealed in Camouflage, begs the question, by whom is this information being managed?

The following review of Randy Koppang's book Camouflage Through Limited Disclosure was written by Ruth Parnell and appeared in the May-June 2007 issue of NEXUS NEW TIMES ([...]):

In analyzing the history of the UFO phenomenon in the USA since the 1940s, researcher Randy Koppang delves into what's at the core of all the official secrecy. He uses the testimony of two key witnesses to make his point: not only do UFOs and extraterrestrials exist, but covert forces are re-engineering off-planet technologies for their own purposes. The admissions of Col. Philip Corso in The Day After Roswell are further supported by their testimony.

One witness is Melinda Leslie, who claims to have been abducted by aliens but also re-abducted by obviously very human military-intelligence operatives intent on finding out what she knows about the abducting aliens. She refers to other similar reports by "re-abductees" who often feel ignored by the UFO research establishment that doesn't countenance these non-alien-abduction scenarios wrapped up as the "real" thing.

The other witness is Bill Uhouse, an electrical engineer who's spent a career working for US defence industry contractors but periodically since the early 1950s has been redirected to secret projects, e.g., in S-4 Nevada, where he worked on UFO craft simulators. His testimony is taken from a series of small-scale lectures he gave between 1996 and 1998.

Among his revelations is that it's not so much the Shadow government behind this reverse-engineering of alien technology but a global Satellite government that comprises the corporate defence establishment in collusion with black-ops military personnel.

As far as the UFO "cover-up" is concerned, Koppang concludes that it's not so much about the official government refusal to confirm the ET presence but to protect a system that at all costs wants to keep secret its complicity in the manufacture of craft with hyperdimensional and thought-control properties. Something else is going on!

I put off reveiwing this because I couldnt come up with anything good to say about it. While I enjoy reading almost anything about the UFO subject, even when the subject material is a bit spectacular, this book gave me a headache. Horribly written, hard to follow, all inuendo (sic), no factual content except for some ridiculous interveiw with mystery man Bill Uhouse. There is nothing in this book that you cant read elsewhere (and without having to take Ridilin first). Even at there absolute worst and with their worst books, Friedman, Good, Marrs, Dolan etc are significantly better writers with much better books than this.

This book provides a unique and interesting perspective on ufology and the powers that be that control UFO information. I would recommend it to anybody that has some knowledge of UFOs and wants to hear theories that aren't necessarily put forward in other popular books on ufology.
Sometimes it was hard to follow the writing style but it's a great book for the price!

British researcher and video-documentarian, Miles Johnston, reflects on Part Three of Randy Koppang's book Camouflage Through Limited Disclosure entitled "The Bill Uhouse Case":

"Bill Uhouse: Emerging from the Bob Lazar and John Lear revelations in the early `90s, about Area 51. It was a pleasure to meet Bill [Uhouse], who attended the International UFO Congress held at the time [in Nevada].

"As I got to know Bill, over [my] short visits to the U.S. in that period, we got on as engineers. We sort of understood one another, in a quiet kind of way. The time came that he had something to say. So I set up my camera in the late afternoon sun, and he gave a briefing [in 1994]. His quiet, thoughtful responses often alluded to so much more in the simplest of words. Asking if there are any aliens at Area 51, [Uhouse] responded with `not at 51'... (alluding to Yes, at other facilities). Then, are there any alien bases...? `Not just for the aliens....'

"Bill explained, they [the managers] `want the release'... [of ET information]. Smoothing the way. He [Uhouse] was authorized to talk about it in a limited way. After over ten years, at last a concise and defined book featuring Bill is in the print. This vital researcher's tool should be read in the quietness of knowing [about his] `being' with them, that Uhouse reveals. Get over the big deal of knowing the ETs are here. Turn the page, get on with it, and deal with it. Do it with this book."

--Miles Johnston, October 2007

Koppang should spend less time trying to sound smart and more time trying to communicate clearly.

If you enjoy reading each sentence twice, graphing it the first time, and reading it aloud the second time with a dictionary handy, then this is the book for you! The Overview, which is the first 68 pages, written completely by Mr. Koppang, is enough to make one give it a good toss into the nearest waste basket and reach for the aspirin bottle. It could have been written much more clearly and in half the pages had it been written as if it were being told in normal speech. When I read writing such as this, I feel the writer has a serious need for recognition through his use of big words.

The second half of the book, or 87 pages of writing and drawing, is most interesting since it is told in interviews and testimonies given by Melinda Leslie and Bill Uhouse. This section flows along and leaves one with quite a bit of thought about ufology and the problem of disclosure, as well as the reasons for and against. I did enjoy this section.

If, as I was, you find yourself stuck with this book, I suggest you read the back cover and then skip to page 67, the interview with Melinda Leslie, and read from there. That part can easily be read without a dictionary in an evening.

The title basically says it all. There were some bits of good info. but look at your local library first.

I think that the only way we're ever going to prove the existance of flying saucers is for one of them to come into the landing pattern of some place like Los Angeles and radio in for landing instructions. Perhaps they then need to enter the holding pattern for a while while they wait for the TV cameras to gather. Then after 'We interrupt this soap opera for a ....', then some little gray/green men with buldging eyes get out and meet the people. Of course some security officer would probably shoot them.

This book has an interesting thesis, that is that there has been a carefully calculated exposure of just enough information to make the whole idea seem farfetched. And there have been snippits of iinformation released, enough accordingly to hint that there may be more, but not enough to be sure.

A major part of the book is on the existance of a simulator of a craft with circular shape. Such a simulator could easily be built. But that's a long way from an actual craft travelling over interstellar distances. And some of the facts about the simulator don't make good sense, for instance it is said that the craft couldn't turn. You have to stop it, point it in the direction you want to go and then take off. The question would be, stop it in reference to what. The surface of the earth is rotating at about 1,000 miles per hour at the, it's going about the sun, which is turning as the Milky Way galaxy turns.

I come away unconvinced, but having enjoyed the read.
