ASSESSMENT General ASSESSMENT // DIETRIC TIC TAC WITNESS Also: Alex Dietrich, Dietrich Navy Lt Cdr, Dietrich Tic Tac witness, Dietrich F-18 pilot, Dietrich Naval Academy, Dietrich wingman Fravor, Dietrich ONI AATIP debrief

01 Executive_Summary

ASSESSMENT: Alex Dietrich is the F-18 pilot who was Fravor's wingman during the Tic Tac encounter — she made thorough debriefs 'within minutes' and gave 'interrogation-style details' to ONI and AATIP. Retired Navy Lieutenant Commander. F/A-18F pilot. Aviator 2003-2007. VFA-41 (same squadron as Fravor). 'New pilot' at time of encounter. Taught at US Naval Academy 7 years. 'Believes in facts, not baseless speculation.' ENCOUNTER (Nov 14, 2004): Wingman to Fravor. 'Little white Tic-Tac-looking object moving above whitewater.' 'No predictable movement, no predictable trajectory.' 'Oblong, size of normal aircraft fuselage. White, matte finish.' Circled above while Fravor descended. 'Unsettling. Unexplainable. We couldn't classify it.' POST-ENCOUNTER: 'Made thorough debriefs within minutes of landing.' 'Written account with comms, bearings, altitudes within hours.' 'Within few years gave thorough, almost interrogation-style details to ONI and AATIP.' 'Absurdity of the situation.' First public statement 2021 (60 Minutes). CRITICAL: Independent corroboration of Fravor. Immediate debriefs = high reliability. Written account with technical data. ONI + AATIP interrogation = IC took it seriously. Naval Academy instructor = position of trust. Reluctant witness (17 years before speaking publicly).
