Richard Gild Jr

Richard Gild Jr. is an independent researcher who conducted archival investigations confirming the professional backgrounds of two key witnesses in the 1953 Kingman, Arizona Crash Retrieval: Arthur Stansel Jr. and Bill Uhouse. His findings were published in a Medium article linked in UAP Gerb's coverage of the Kingman case.

RoleIndependent researcher and investigator

For Stansel, Gild's research confirmed employment at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, involvement in nuclear testing programs, and AEC contract work consistent with testimony. For Uhouse, Gild verified a 14-year USMC service history and subsequent defense contractor work in experimental aircraft, through preserved newspaper records from 1949 and 1953.

This independent credential verification is cited by UAP Gerb as particularly significant because it distinguishes both witnesses from figures whose backgrounds cannot be confirmed through public records.
