air force major general william neil mccasland, 68, has been missing since february 27, 2026, after leaving his albuquerque home on foot without his phone, glasses, or other devices, reportedly taking only a possible handgun. he had been connected to uap-related programs; his wife reported he had been experiencing mental decline and had made attempts to resign from classified projects before his disappearance. the fbi is involved and a silver alert remains active. four months of silence from official channels on an active-duty-connected general's disappearance is structurally anomalous regardless of cause.
