A retired U.S. Air Force major general with ties to one of America’s most famous UFO-linked military bases has been missing for nearly two weeks in New Mexico.
Authorities say William Neil McCasland, 68, left his home in Albuquerque on foot around 11 a.m. on February 27 and has not been seen or heard from since. His cell phone was left behind. The Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office issued a Silver Alert the following day due to an unspecified medical concern and continues to coordinate search efforts.
The case has drawn national attention partly because of McCasland’s career. During his time in the Air Force, he held several sensitive posts and eventually commanded the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base - a facility long associated with rumors about debris from the Roswell Incident.
Investigators have contacted hundreds of homeowners and deployed drones, helicopters, search dogs, and volunteer teams. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has also joined the search.
After retiring from the military, McCasland briefly worked with To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science, the UFO research organization co-founded by Tom DeLonge of Blink-182. The timing of the disappearance has fueled speculation online. It occurred just days after Donald Trump announced plans to release additional government records related to UFOs and extraterrestrial life.
So far, authorities say they have found no evidence of foul play, and McCasland’s family has urged the public not to jump to conclusions. Search efforts remain ongoing as investigators ask anyone with information to come forward.
For now, the story remains a mystery - one involving a missing general, a history of classified programs, and a location long tied to America’s UFO folklore.
