PR-073: the one video that wasn’t scrubbed

Of all 85 declassified UAP videos, exactly one leaks city-level location, names a credited individual, uses a non-AARO unit code, and preserves the raw DIA report ID. The other 84 are scrubbed of all four.

PR-073 is uniquely un-redacted across four independent metadata fields. Either the curation process missed this single record, or it was deliberately exempted.

Evidence

The DVIDS metadata for video PR-073 stands alone across all 85 released videos:

Location. Country, state, *and* city: { city: "Columbus", state: "Ohio", country: "United States" }. The other 84 are either "Undisclosed Location", country-only, or "At Sea".

Credit. A named, linked individual: { name: "Edward Pajak", url: "https://www.dvidshub.net/portfolio/1000736" }. The other 84 all say "Courtesy".

Unit code. VIRIN 221101-O-XX999-9738XX999 is the DVIDS placeholder for "unknown unit," and the O (rather than D) signals "Other" service of origin. The other 84 all use unit code D0360 (AARO).

Title. DOW-UAP-PR073, IIR 1 655 S0053 23/Several Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Encountered In The Vicinity of Columbus OHIIR 1 655 S0053 23 is the Defense Intelligence Agency *Intelligence Information Report* serial number left in the public title.
