Secretary of the Army Dan Driscoll recently made a surprising statement during an interview on Fox News. Even though no human has walked on the Moon since the Apollo missions ended in the 1970s, one of the highest-ranking military officials in the United States made a strange claim this week about having a presence on the lunar surface. He mentioned this during a live news interview. While speaking to Brian Kilmeade on Fox News on Wednesday, Dan Driscoll—the Secretary of the Army—suddenly brought up a soldier astronaut on the Moon. He was discussing events related to the Army’s 250th anniversary when he made this unexpected comment. “The Army started planning this [anniversary parade] long in advance because what we believe is this will continue the strength in recruiting and retention that we have as young Americans across the country get to see all of the amazing things that the Army has done,” he said. “Whether it’s helping with floods in North Carolina or wildfires in California or we talked to an astronaut yesterday who’s on the moon who’s a soldier, including actually going to war and fighting to defend the freedoms that are, uh, that make our nation so great.” “Right. The Army can celebrate the Army. That’s what it’s about,” Kilmeade replied, without noticing the Moon comment or asking Driscoll to explain further. So what did Driscoll really mean by this? Some people think this could be proof that the U.S. has been secretly sending astronauts to the Moon for years without publicly acknowledging it. And this information slipped. Supporters of this theory argue that the government may have advanced space programs hidden from the public, allowing military personnel to conduct missions on the Moon. Or it was simply a mistake and that Driscoll might have been talking about astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) instead. If so, are there any soldiers there? At this time, there have been no official statements clarifying his remark. You can watch the interview clip below—the comment happens just after the 4-minute mark. The post Conspiracy or Mistake?
