Resumen del Editor

Bill Tompkins was embedded in the world of secrecy as a teenager, when the navy took his personal ship models out of a Hollywood department store because they showed the classified locations of the radars and gun emplacements. He was present at the “Battle of LA”, when 1,430 rounds were fired at UFOs, and one of the Nordic craft selected him to be their rep in the evolving aerospace race. This book is a partial autobiography about his life to about 1970 including some of his early work for TRW. Selected by the navy prior to completing high school, he was the courier for secrets learned from navy spies about the Nazis until he was discharged in 1946.

After working at North American Aviation and Northrop, he was hired by Douglas Aircraft Company in 1950, and when they found out about his involvement in classified work, was given a job as a draftsman with a peripheral assignment to work in a “think tank”. It was controlled by the navy personnel who used to work for James Forrestal, who was allegedly assassinated because he was going to publicly reveal what he knew about UFOs. Bill Tompkins was asked to conceive sketches of mile-long naval interplanetary craft designs.

Later, as he became involved with the Apollo launch vehicle, his insight to systems engineering resulted in his offering some critical suggestions personally to Dr. Wehrner von Braun with more reliable checkout with missiles in their vertical position. This story is peppered with very personal interactions with his co-workers and secretaries, some of whom the he believes were Nordic aliens helping the “good guys” here on Earth. He sketches what he personally saw on TV when Armstrong was landing on the moon. Born in May 1923, Bill Tompkins is one of the few survivors of the “big war”, married to the same girl Mary, and was willing to tell his story about what he really did during his aerospace life in the '40s, '50s, and '60s that relate to aliens, NASA, and secrets that now can be told.

That's 9 hours I'll never get back.

First whoever the "Editor" was, should seek other employment. Totally disjointed, some passages repeat, some make you believe more is going to happen and just stop.

However, that being said, I still found it entertaining, even though it got a bit "Penthouse Letters" which I was not expecting at all. lol

And for those complaining about language or sexism and misogyny: Teenagers these days use the same language more often. And this was written about experiences in the 50s and 60s mostly. That's how things could be. Not saying I approve, but that's how it was. Watch in like flint and you'll see the same stuff. Don't get your PC "I'm offended" panties in a bunch.

Good performance by the reader.

Hot Chaff At Its Absolute Finest

If you are a hot Chaff enjoyer look no further! Bill delivers in every way imaginable. From the Space Lamborghini story where he bangs a hot alien for 3 months straight to the story where Jessica wants to give it to him and when he denies her another man just starts railing her on the carpet just in front of him, this book has all the hot Chaff you could ever ask for.

Think of this book as a comedy, there are parts where he spouts hilarious nonsense. Bill also reveals that he's a pervert and possibly a child molester at some point he's checking out a 13 year old and at another he's slobbering over a 17 year old lmao... So yeah there's a few dark moments here and there but over all the story is incredible.

Bill is a super genius, extremely handsome, super spy alien hot babe conquering machine (who's also beautiful down there ;]). Enjoy

Super stud

Ok book, interesting info. Couldn’t get over the im a super stud stuff. Not really believable. Supposedly all these super hot alien lady’s all wanted him and were throwing themselves at him. If it wasn’t for that nonsense it would have been a much better book

Interesting tale of alien’s influencing us

Tompkins purposes that aliens have influenced chosen people to advance the technology of our civilization. The performance tends to draw things out making breaks a necessity.

Great Listen!

This book confirms all of the theories that I had regarding the SSP. Great story and read by a great narrator.

As a woman reading this book...

Back in the 40s 50s, and even 60s, my mother used to tell me how rude and vulgar men were to women. At that time.

So I can understand how a man, at his age, would want to explode about how women were spoken to and treated, especially when he’s been penned up in the “secret world” of the military Q-clearance, and not able to verbalize, vocalize, nor express himself as any normal man would want to. I believe that Bill has been like a warm Coke bottle, shaken up over the decades, and this book uncapped that bottle.

His need to express himself sexually, and explain how the Nordic secretaries were to him, whether true, or not, is quite extraordinary. In this day and age, of course he would be put in jail for everything he said to the Nordic secretaries, for at least 10 years.

This is an extraordinary story.

If he was, indeed selected by extraterrestrials, I prefer calling them “Starmen“, he should not be taking credit for everything he did. He should be giving all the credit to the ET’s that infused his mind with information.

Without the Starmen, he would have still been selling his dad‘s hosiery to women.

I don’t think he emphasize this enough in his book.

If this book is true, it is extraordinary. If it is not true, it was a complete waste of time.

Lots of words

The author continually strings lots of techy words together in rambling and non-sensical phrases that go nowhere. I’ve heard more concise wording in a time share sales pitch. Approach it as a late night story bc it will put you to sleep.

Interesting story, wrong narrator

I don't think the narrator is right for this book. It doesn't have a "based on true events" feeling even though it's supposed to be.
