Texas records connect a nuclear-site lockdown, old mysteries, and one definite hoax
New reporting traces very different incidents through the Pentagon's public files—from Pantex in 2015 to Camp Hood, Project Grudge, Alice, and Lackland.

The San Antonio Express-News published a document-led tour on August 15 of Texas cases appearing in the Pentagon's expanding public UAP collection. The strongest modern incident is a 2015 Pantex report: radar detected a non-threatening object near the nuclear-weapons plant, the facility locked down, officers tracked it with a camera and binoculars, and witnesses gave differing color descriptions while estimating it at roughly four feet tall and two feet wide.
The same article follows 1949 reports around Camp Hood and Project Grudge's green-fireball work, a 1957 egg-shaped-object account near Lackland, and a 1950 metal disc found near Alice. That last object was built from old aircraft parts and planted as a prank—a useful reminder that a government file may preserve an unexplained report, an investigation, a rumor, or a solved hoax without making those categories equivalent.
Why it matters
Reading several cases side by side reveals what headline summaries hide: security response, witness description, archival survival, and final identification are separate parts of the record.
What the source establishes
The article links its cases to released government material. Some remain unidentified in the cited records, while the Alice disc was reported as a hoax; none of the collection establishes an extraterrestrial cause.
