There's mention of him on this thread at BAUT. Apart from anything else, there seems to be some doubt that he is in fact a NASA employee. |

Acording to your link, he worked for Martin and Boeing, not directly for NASA. What is an ScO anyway? It's not in my list of NASA acronyms.

Even if his identity proves to be correct, it doesn't mean to say he is not making this up...

I tried searching NASA's site for "Clark McClelland" and didn't get any results, which seems strange if he was really so important.

It is in mine; the only remotely applicable expansion is "spacecraft operator." This would include anyone who sits on console for any kind of space mission, and this would include on-console at a contractor facility. Not sure if that's what McClelland is claiming, and his tap dance around what he actually did is less than confidence-building.
At JSC it is common to say one "works for NASA" when one is in fact paid by a contractor. However, that is the convention only at JSC from what I've found. McClelland claims to have worked for KSC.
Bottom line is that McClelland is a disgruntled ex-employee of a NASA contractor who has been obsessed with UFOs since, well, forever. He's not a very reliable source on what NASA knows about UFOs. Lots of "they won't let me publish what I know." Basically McClelland is noise. See how quickly he has glommed onto Ed Mitchell's story without really verifying what Mitchell claimed. I never heard Mitchell mention McClelland.
