An interview with Amelia Earhart. This is a little mind bending. I supplied some of the questions for this; some of the answers only I know - based on my 20 years of research. (I was hired to work on "Amelia") The question "who was the love of your life?" and "did they burn your plane?" get very unusual answers. I can only say that key elements I've confirmed via other sources. While Dr. Medhus or the medium have great knowledge about her life and death, whether one "believes" in mediums or the afterlife is beside the point - as "Amelia" says here - "How I died is not important. How I lived is." (Dr Medhus conducts these interviews with a medium she's been working with for some time via skype - they've been speaking to a number of people via Dr Medhus' son who died some years back, and he helps facilitate the connection; hence the conversational tone.) I helped fix the sound on this interview, as there was a kink in the microphone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIqUzcSD3xs

EYEWITNESS: THE AMELIA EARHART INCIDENT BY THOMAS E DEVINE WITH RICHARD M DALEY
Pg 40. “Glancing out on the runway ramp.. an area not the main part of Aslito Field, but an extended arm of the airstrip at the southwest corner… Near an embankment was (AE’s plane). (LATER) .. a muffled explosion at Aslito Field erupted into a large flash fire… I crouched and crawled toward the airfield. When I could see what was burning, I was aghast! The twin engine plane was engulfed in flames! I could not see anyone by the light of the fire… in July 1944.”

AMELIA EARHART:HER LAST FLIGHT
By OLIVER KNAGSS
South African journalist gathers numerous eyewitnesses at Mili, Majuro and Jaluit. There is footage of these interviews, but it exists somewhere in Miami – still trying to locate the negative.
AMELIA EARHART: THE MYSTERY SOLVED By ELGEN M LONG AND MARIE K LONG
Elgen shows how the original plan devised by radio man Harry Manning was adhered to by the Coast Guard Itasca – they didn’t know Manning got off the plane in Hawaii and wasn’t on the electra. So 90% of all their communication was in Morse code – something neither AE or FN knew.
“WITH OUR OWN EYES – EYEWTINESSES TO THE FINAL DAYS OF AMELIA EARHART” MIKE CAMPBELL WITH THOMAS E DEVINE
PG 32. Robert Sosbe, 1st battalion 20th Marines, 4th marine division) Sosbe said he saw the Electra before and during its destruction) “on or about D+5 after our infantry had captured Alsito, the night before, then were driven off, only to capture it again, our Co was called up to fill a gap between our infantry and the 27th Army infantry. The trucks carrying us stopped off the opposite side of the runway from the hangars and tower about 3 to 5 hundred yds. This two engine airplane was pulled from the hangar to off the runway where it was engulfed in flames from one end to the other. I can still remember exactly the way it burned, how the frame and ribs because it was visible. It was about half dark. It burned approximately 15-30 minutes.”
Same page: a letter from Earskine Nabers: “I am seeking Marines who were placed on duty at Aslito to guard a padlocked hangar containing AE’s plane. The hangar was not one of those located along the runway. It was located near what may have been a Japanese administration building, and an unfinished hangar at the tarmac, in the southwest corner of the airfield.
The follow up letter (pg 33)
…”we had to get Col. Clarence R Wallace to sign all the messages that came through the message center.) Hq 8th moved back to bivouac area. I was dropped off at the Hangar for guard duty at the main road that went by west side of hangar. The road that went out to hangar, I was placed on the right side, just as it left the main road….
Pg 34 The best I can recall the plane was pulled on the field by a jeep.. the plane was facing north after the plane was parked and jeep moved. A plane came over real low and on the next pass he strafed the plane and it went up in a huge fireball. (We were sitting on the west side of the airfield about one hundred yards from the plane. We were on higher ground. As far as I remember, the (men) that pulled the plane on the field and us guys from H & S 8th were the only ones there.”
Pg 36 Marine Capt Earl Ford of Fallbrook, CA, artillery master sgt with 2nd Marines. Interview 6-7-88 by Paul Cook. “The aircraft was about 100 yards (from me) maybe less. We all saw it. No way we could miss it. A civilian twin engine. No way it was military. American aircraft in civil registration… some officers were saying it was Amelia’s… it had only two windows on the side, back here.”
Arthur Nash, Air Corps Corps, P47 group on Aslito. Claims he saw the plane on July 4, 1944 (book says 1945, must be a misprint based on following) pg 40:
“After landing on Isley.. at 2:30 pm, Japanese soldiers were running around the airstrip, one killed himself in the cockpit of a P47D with a grenade…” I slept fairly well (in the hangar) and (in the morning) wandered over to a large hole in the hangar wall facing the other hangar. The hangar floor and the area between the hangars was littered with debris, displace with siding from the hangars, maybe 65 yards apart, but close enough to get a good look at a familiar aircraft outside the other hangar. My eyesight was acute and what I saw was Amelia Earhart’s airplane!... the next morning I went over to see it but it was gone.”
Jerrell Chatham, 1st platoon, I company, 3rd regiment, 2nd marine deivions: “I was driving trucks .. on Saipan… when we went ashore I saw the hangar where Amelia Earhart’s plane was stored, I also saw the plane in the air. They told us not to go close to the airplane hangar and we did not…”
Pg 44: Howard Ferris, US Marines: “Sent to Saipan for guard dutey… an old hangar structure at end of a runway. This hangar was not large,.. small trees in front of big doors.. (then he recounts the same Marine argument that Devine and Nabers recount – where some Navy brass attempted to get in, but a Marine (Nabers) refused them entry.)” Howard was not present at the fire, but one of his buddies was. The buddy said a truck arrived with many gas cans and the guards saturated the entire hangar.. and it burned totally.
Pg 50 Robert Sowash, 23rd regiment 4th Marines Division: “I saw a plane in a building that was not a military plane.. I remember other Marines saying it was the same as Earhart’s. Later the place was cordoned off..”
Pete Leblanc, 121st Naval CB’s, 4th Marine division: “some of our guys were sneaking over towards the airfield to try and see (AE’s plane). We heard there were guards there. Then it was burned up later.”
AMELIA EARHART: LOST LEGEND - DONALD MOYER WILSON
Over 200 eyewitnesses as gathered by all the different authors with the various reports of her landing on Mili, being brought to Jaluit and incarcerated in Garapan prison.
I know Mr. Martini has been on Coast-to-Coast AM because I heard George Noory's interviews with him in the past year. I think he was on at least twice in about as many years...
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, I wanted to add another paranormal wrinkle to this saga.
Not recently, yet ANOTHER researcher tossed his hat into the ring of the search for Earhart. The guy's ex-military and is a retired member of the top-secret Stargate Project remote viewing. He says, god willing, he is going to try to locate via RV protocols a part of the Electra -- specifically, one of the engines. Why he's focused on this and what this man knows I really don't comprehend. To be honest, I'm skeptical at best about most psychic research and really sour on mediums in general. Way too much fraud there. Still, at this point in time, for all we know a remote viewer might be the one that finds that physical proof that clinches the case!
I still generally believe Earhart and Noonan ended up on Saipan. The plane? Aside from US military personnel testimony, there have been so many different accounts of its fate that I kind of wonder now. I want to believe the Marines but the plane or intelligence papers covering its fate have to be found to settle history once and for all...
Come on guys, you probably have the best chance at clearing the Earhart "mystery" for once and for all, you are putting so much effort into it and so much love and that is all highly commendable, but ...
ReplyDeleteyou must realize by now that paranormal evidence is viewed, to put it politely, with a degree of suspicion by the majority of the world. Think about the day when you finally find and verify pieces of her plane (which I believe you will), post the news to this website and then watch as all those naysaysers out there, who for whatever reason continue to want to believe TIGHAR or other assinine theories, attack your credibility because of this type of information.
Just saying … you may want to tone it down here a little, lest you inadvertently fuel the rampant, peculiar denial of the Earhart-on-Saipan body of evidence. They are grasping at straws already, so maybe hide the friggin hay-bail!

Dude! thanks for the post. If I had a nickel for everyone who told me "You shouldn't mention that psychic or medium stuff." "You probably don't want to talk about that when you're pitching the project." I've heard it at least a dozen times. Data is data. I'm not particularly concerned with where it came from - the only thing that science asks of data is if can be replicated. Or in the case of Earhart, corroborated. You don't even want to know what I heard from a medium a few weeks ago, and then an hour later had a scientist call me and and say the exact same words that the medium had said only minutes prior. Exact same words. So, it's just data. You collect the data and then you investigate. AE's story was filled with mediums and psychics - as George Putnam followed each of them up. And now that the story has become more clear, based on the evidence, based on the eyewitness accounts, we can go back and examine those "ESP" reports done in 1937 and see how accurate they were - or were not. It's just data. What people get confused when speaking to or about mediums - or anything of this genre - is to mix up what mediums or psychics say as if its gospel. It's not - it's someone giving an interpretation of what they're sensing, feeling or seeing. That doesn't mean its real - but it does give you something to examine or explore. I wasn't trying to prove that this medium is accurate by posting this - I'm pointing out that there are some details in here that are not public knowledge, that can be confirmed, that have been sourced, that are accurate. Like the identity of the "other woman" in George and Amelia's relationship that is mentioned in this particular segment. I know the identity of that person, and the fact that she appeared in this session is only a confirmation that the data I'd already gathered is on the right track. At the end of the day, yes, forensic evidence of her plane being on Mili is going to prove at least that part of the story. And forensic evidence of her plane being on Saipan is going to prove the other part of it. All I can tell you is that the first part is being studied at this moment by people with the equipment to tell whether the pieces found on Mili are from her plane. But to add to that mix, they also got an interview with an island elder, who recounted when the Japanese ordered 40 islanders to help them move the Electra off of Mili. Forensic evidence? No. But compelling, as it fits with the other stories. So when the forensic evidence comes back from the pieces on Mili proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that they came from her Electra, will that end the story? Sorry. No. That puts us at the beginning. The rest is coming... soon.
