You know, this just gets more and more tasty. Huge US government conspiracies! I might write that XF crossover after all.
So it sounds like Sloane was with the corps of engineers in... let's see, roughly 1970, maybe a little earlier. Interesting. He's given the Rambaldi material to study and figures out what's going on, becomes fascinated by it. I wonder if his superiors expected either of those things to happen. I wonder if he was hand-picked to study this material by someone who saw and recognized tha kind of potential he had, or if the Army had just happened upon the document and it was sheer luck that Sloane ended up looking at it.
