Jay Stratton

Jay Stratton is a former U.S. intelligence official who is mainly relevant to recent government UAP history through Navy/DoD coordination, the UAP Task Force, and internal briefing and investigation processes. In the chronology, he appears in connection with UAPTF formation, interagency coordination, FOIA releases, and the movement of information to military and political audiences.

His UAP significance is less a single public claim than his role as an organizational node inside government programs. The documented events around Stratton bring together questions of jurisdiction, classification, imagery, scientific advice, and international coordination, specific claims therefore remain tied to the particular records, statements, or releases that support them.
