In honor of fallen pilot
CHARLES FRANK "Chic" BURLINGAME III
By Pamela Rae Schuffert presenting investigative journalism from a Biblical Christian perspective-
I can never forget the tragedy of "9/11."
I distinctly remember that fateful day and hour that the news broke forth on the radio and television. I was in Hawaii at that time, lecturing on the NEW WORLD ORDER agenda for America to Hawaiians. I was also performing much research on martial law plans for those islands as well. Furthermore, I had been invited there to attempt to assist Sue Ford/Bryce Taylor with her dysfunctional and precious daughter, Kelly, whose mind had all but been destroyed by terrible CIA mind control programming and drugs.
But after 8 days of living with them and attempting to help, I was forced to conclude poor Kelly would require professional help beyond what I could possibly provide along with Sue for her daughter. Kelly became physically abusive and threatening with me, and I sadly was compelled to leave at that point, putting both Sue and Kelly into the hands of God and His tender care.
As the news began to pour in about this great tragedy in both Washington DC and in New York City, something I heard captured my attention immediately. The name of the pilot of the plane that allegedly flew into the Pentagon that fateful day...Charles Frank "Chic" Burlingame III! I was horrified to hear that familiar name.
My family and the Burlingames had been friends since the 1950's! Both of our families had been stationed at Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha, NE. We had all attended Betz Elementary School in Bellevue, NE, together. Bradley had been my classmate. I knew his sister, Debbie. My parents knew his parents well. We all knew each other for many years through our common USAF backgrounds, and had kept in contact.
And when I lived in the Washington DC area, they came to our home for dinner, his brother Mark included.
And only several years prior to "9/11" when their now deceased father was very ill, their mother called MY wonderful Christian mother requesting our prayers for her ill husband. (Both Burlingame parents are now deceased, as well as my parents.)
A sick feeling arose within, when I heard "Chic" Burlingame's name as the pilot of flight 77, who perished, allegedly by "hitting the Pentagon." Deep sorrow filled my heart for a long time afterward. The truth hits you much harder, in fact, when victims of such tragedies are personally known to you.
And then, anger came as the truth began to emerge through "9/11 truthers" who were unraveling this mystery and coming up with what really happened.
Retired military pilot Field McConnell, a "9/11 truther" working with a team of "9/11" researchers, finally told me the REAL truth behind the tragic death of "Chic" Burlingame. I interviewed Field on my radio broadcast at one time.
Field admitted on my broadcast that evidence was uncovered that Flight 77 NEVER HIT THE PENTAGON. Instead, Field related that they discovered evidence indicating that his plane and been "remote piloted" out over the Atlantic ocean instead, and once over the ocean, it was incinerated by high explosives (thermite) planted in that plane and remote detonated to destroy all evidence of what REALLY happened.
In fact, much subsequent research disclosed that this plane could NEVER have hit the Pentagon. WHERE was the massive amount of debris that SHOULD have been scattered over a WIDE area, HAD that very plane hit the Pentagon? And WHERE was a MUCH LARGER SECTION of the Pentagon that SHOULD have been severely damaged, HAD this large plane struck the Pentagon???
But in truth, IT NEVER DID!
To add to this tragedy, Field also revealed how, when Burlingame's daughter, Wendy, became suspicious and demanded the truth to come forth regarding her father's death, she later was found dead in her apartment under mysterious circumstances.
Field believes she was deliberately murdered by government operatives to silence her suspicions and demands for the truth.
Here is a brief excerpt from a WIKIPEDIA article about him:
***************************************
Burlingame was the pilot of American Airlines Flight 77, with First Officer David Charlebois,[6] before it was hijacked and flown into the Pentagon. He would have turned 52 on September 12, 2001.
Burlingame was buried in the Arlington National Cemetery. He was initially deemed ineligible for burial there due to his status as a reservist deceased at an age younger than 60, but Burlingame was given a waiver and his case triggered reform of Arlington's burial criteria.[7]
His daughter, Wendy Burlingame, died in late 2006 in a suspicious apartment fire.[8]

In closing, may God bless the Burlingame survivors, Chic's wife Sherri, and his surviving family members Bradley, Debbie and Mark.
And may God enable the FULL TRUTH to come forth someday, exposing the TRUE perpetrators and psychopathic murderers and co-conspirators behind the terrible "9/11" tragedy that broke the heart of this nation, and the lives of numerous innocent victims as well.

Independent Investigation Into Pentagon Attack Yields Alarming Information
August 30th, 2009
Researchers present new eyewitness testimony which they say proves the government's story to be a "monstrous lie"
A three year independent investigation into the September 11, 2001 attack on the Pentagon has yielded new eyewitness evidence which, according to the Southern California-based researchers who conducted the investigation, "conclusively (and unfortunately) establishes as a historical fact that the violence which took place in Arlington that day was not the result of a surprise attack by suicide hijackers, but rather a military black operation involving a carefully planned and skillfully executed deception."
They have compiled the most pertinent testimony into an 81 minute video presentation entitled National Security Alert, which has earned the respect and praise of a growing number of distinguished academics, journalists, writers, entertainers, pilots, and military personnel.
The investigation involved multiple trips to the scene of the crime in Arlington, Virginia, close scrutiny of all official and unofficial data related to the event, and, most importantly, first-person interviews with dozens of eyewitnesses, many of which were conducted and filmed in the exact locations from which they witnessed the plane that allegedly struck the building that day. It was primarily conducted by two men named Craig Ranke and Aldo Marquis, also known as Citizen Investigation Team, or CIT.
"There were a growing number of people in the United States and around the world who were suspicious of the government's story about what had happened at the Pentagon that day," Ranke explains. "The doubts were initially fueled by the dubious damage to the building, which seemed incompatible with a 757 crash, the deliberate lack of transparency by the authorities, and many other issues, but they really intensified after a team of professional pilots (Pilots for 9/11 Truth) analyzed the data obtained from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) via a Freedom of Information Act request in 2006, which was supposedly from the black box of American Airlines Flight 77, and found that the last reported altitude of the plane was far too high to have struck the light poles or the building. This meant that either the plane did not cause the observed physical damage, that the government had released fraudulent data, or both."
"We were tired of the cover-up, but we were also frustrated with the dead-end theorizing that was taking place", says Marquis of the project's genesis. "We knew that the only way we were ever going to know what had really happened was if we actually went to the area, knocked on doors, and interviewed everyday people about what they saw."
NATIONAL SECURITY ALERT from Citizen Investigation Team on Vimeo.When these eyewitness accounts are aggregated, they paint a very disturbing picture, say the researchers.
"To put it as concisely as possible, the plane had to have flown on a very specific flight path in the final seconds before it reached the Pentagon in order to have caused the observed damage, starting with the light poles that were photographed on the ground and ending with the directional damage to the building itself which was outlined in detail by the American Society of Civil Engineers," explains Ranke. "The government claims the plane flew on this flight path and hit the building. The eyewitnesses in all of the most critical vantage points, on the other hand, independently, unanimously, and unequivocally report a drastically different flight path, proving that the plane absolutely could not have hit the light poles or the building. It is a non-controversial scientific fact that a strike from this trajectory would have caused a very different damage path."
It wasn't just witnesses who watched the plane approach the building that the team spoke with, however.
"We've also published our interview with a Pentagon police officer who saw the plane flying away from the Pentagon immediately after the explosion", says Marquis. "We already knew that the plane could not have hit based on the testimony of the witnesses on the other side of the building who watched it approach, but it was still vindicating to get this kind of confirmation."
A 2006 Scripps Howard/Ohio University poll found that "More than a third of the American public suspects that federal officials assisted in the 9/11 terrorist attacks or took no action to stop them so the United States could go to war in the Middle East." Nevertheless, Ranke and Marquis acknowledge it is still quite controversial to claim, as they do, that "criminal elements within the U.S. government" were complicit in the attacks.
"If you are skeptical of (or even incensed by) this statement we do not blame you," reads a note on the front page of their website, CitizenInvestigationTeam.com. "We are not asking you to take our word for it, nor do we want you to do that. We want you to view the evidence and see with your own eyes that this is the case. We want you to hear it directly from the eyewitnesses who were there, just as we did."
Many people seem to be taking them up on this offer. Their video has already received almost 70,000 views online since it was first posted to their website a few weeks ago with only a grass roots promotional effort behind it.
Perhaps more notable than the size of the audience, however, is the caliber of some of the people in it. A newly-published compendium of endorsements on the CitizenInvestigationTeam.com website includes praise from a wide array of distinguished and well-respected Americans.
Emmy-award winning actor and former president of The Screen actors Guild, Ed Asner, calls the film a "reasoned, and methodical look at witness testimony the day the Pentagon was attacked on Sept. 11th".
Prolific non-ficition author Dr. Peter Dale Scott, Professor Emeritus of the University of California, Berkeley affirms that the film "successfully rebuts the official account of Flight 77's flight path on 9/11 as it approached the Pentagon".
"If you accept the placement of the plane as independently and unanimously reported by the witnesses presented in CIT's video National Security Alert, science proves that it did not cause the physical damage at the Pentagon on 9/11/2001", says FAA certified pilot Robert Balsamo.
Dr. David Ray Griffin, author of The New Pearl Harbor Revisited: 9/11, the Cover-Up, and the Exposé and many other titles, says he is "pleased to be able to recommend this important film with enthusiasm", while scholar, author, and radio host Dr. Kevin Barrett says that the film proves "that the official version of the attack on the Pentagon is false, and that the attack must have been a deceptive military operation, not the kamakaze crash of a hijacked commercial jet."
Scott McKinsey, an award-winning network television director, says "The DVD offers no theorizing or speculation; only corroborated eyewitness evidence contradicting the official flight data to support an overwhelming argument that a plane did not slam into the Pentagon on 9/11".
Architect Richard Gage, AIA, founder of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth (AE911Truth.org), a coalition of over 700 professional architects and engineers calling for a new independent investigation of the destruction of the three skyscrapers in New York on 9/11 (the third was World Trade Center 7), calls the film "long overdue, but worth waiting for" and says that it "deserves serious attention".
Retired Navy Commander and aviator James R. Compton calls National Security Alert "the best reporting I've seen in a long, long time" and "a must see for every citizen in our country".
"Government and media figures who dare ignore evidence this conclusive do so at their own peril", warns Lt. Col. Shelton Lankford, a retired Marine pilot who has flown 303 combat missions.
