Well, they're not volunteers actually...more like conscripts. 

So where do they come from, you're probably thinking ? I suppose I
shouldn't tell you but I will, because nobody will believe you anyway. 

It's to do with all those unidentified sightings you have in the skies
round your planet – Unidentified Flying Objects I believe you quaintly 
call them there on Earth. And all the people, all over your planet, 
hundreds of them every year, who disappear mysteriously...without 
trace...never to be seen again. 

I suppose if you compared the areas where the sightings take place and
the areas where the disappearances take place, things would start to 
match up. But nobody would believe you, would they ? 

I was talking to the Chief Surgeon the other day, down on The Farm. He
says we're almost ready for the spring planting and we need a whole new 
batch of conscripts. 

Watch those night skies and even the day skies, my friend. We're coming
to visit you again. 

Shortly.
