Edit of Frank Collin Article

Frank Collin strayed from his talks about ancient civilizations and lost civilizations when he wrote the book Military Encounters with Extraterrestrials: The Real World War. This book talks of military history of encounters with aliens during WWI, WWII, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, and more current military encounters of the 21st century. This book is filled with common logical fallacies that hurt his claims that military personnel did have encounters with extraterrestrials. Using Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit from his book ''The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark'' you can figure out the common logical fallacies. In one of the stories in Collin's book, he talks about an occurrence involving Manfred von Richthofen, the Red Baron, shooting down a UFO and seeing aliens exiting the craft. This story is not told by the Red Baron himself, it is told by Peter Waitzrik, who fought with the Red Baron. The flaw is that this story is told many years later and Collin even states in Chapter 1 of this book that this story does not match up with historical records of the event. His reference for this information also comes from a known tabloid that shares false information, the ''Weekly World News''. User:Sierosethorn Sierosethorn (talk) 17:05, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
