Over 40 years ago, a British policeman encountered something that would stick with him for the rest of his days.

It is what followed the encounter, however, that would cement Godfrey's place in the UFO history books.

Around six months later, he was tasked with investigating the death of a missing man - Zigmund Adamski - whose body had been found in a Todmorden coal yard.

Adamski's body was found earlier in June 1980 not later, after Godfrey's alleged encounter on 28 November 1980.

I see this all the time on UFO web sites. The youngsters dig up old classic UFO cases and then they carefully exclude the flaws that have been pointed out in subsequent years. Sometimes they embellish the cases with "new" details or even pass off Photoshopped images as being from the event.

My absolute favourite case next to the Falkirk case. Loads of strange stuff happened to Alan Godfrey before and after his stange night in Todmorden. Loads of evidence for and against his experience and there were other witnesses of other equally strange events round about that area, at that time and all police officers.

He drank a bottle of whiskey a day...and he was "nearly" an alcoholic?

That's about my intake. Sounds like a reasonable way to put it.
