The report is filed by a representative of this office at one thousand five hundred fifty‑four hours, United States Air Force, reporting that at approximately one thousand seven hundred thirty hundred hours on September third, a resident of the yard adjacent to the veteran’s hospital observed a series of flying objects and called attention to them. The observer described the objects as five round and flat, appearing bright, luminous in color. The objects moved in a horizontal line, heading toward the veteran’s hospital in a southwest direction. The objects were observed for approximately four minutes before disappearing. At one point the objects appeared extremely bright and then returned to their original luminous color. The observation was made without the influence of intoxicants. No sound, vibration, smoke, flame, or odor was detected. A drawing prepared by the observer is attached, depicting the outline and position of the objects. The report concludes that the observer had no particular interest in the subject of flying saucers and had only become aware of the phenomenon through newspaper reports.
