Don Berliner

Don Berliner is an aviation writer and UFO researcher whose significance here is that he took a position against his own side's material: on 14 March 1999 he was among the pro-UFO researchers signing a public statement denouncing the SOM1-01 Special Operations Manual as counterfeit [S1].

That matters evidentially. Advocates rejecting a MJ-12 document on internal-anachronism grounds is a stronger signal than any skeptic's assertion, and it establishes that the community applied real discrimination to at least one item in the corpus.
