Yeah I checked on that. Here's the complete stat that you dishonestly snipped:
"Cameras on cell phones proved popular right from the start, as indicated by the J-Phone in Japan having had more than half of its subscribers using cell phone cameras in two years. The world soon followed. In 2003, more camera phones were sold worldwide than stand-alone digital cameras largely
due to growth in Japan and Korea."----

So there's that...lol
Exactly, "phones sold
worldwide" thanks to Japan and Korea leading the pack.
I am proud as punch that our MR is actually learning to check facts. A little too late this time to avoid having to eat his words, but progress is progress...
Back to the point. People have been snapping pics of UAPs for a large fraction of a century, but this "large group" of engineers, here in the 21st century, failed - not once, but
twice - to nab a single shot, even when they had a 45 second window
And none of them had a single regular camera between them. That day OR the next.
And, apparently, not a single security camera on the whole base...
And no operating radar.
I suspect this Graves guy is actually playing for the other team. What he has done here is tell the account of what can only be described as
The Holy Grail of sightings - a recent (21st century) account, of a large group of professional aircraft contractors, on a military base, surrounded by trained military, where there is radar, and the account spanned , not merely 45 seconds, but TWO DAYS. You just can't get much better than that.
The best possible chance - the UFO enthusiast's wet dream - and they STILL can't produce an iota of evidence.
