Dear Miss [redacted]

This is to acknowledge your letter of 13 February 1960 concerning an unidentified flying object sighting.

United States Air Force files fail to indicate any sighting on 21 December 1959 and, therefore, we can make no correlation between your sighting and the one you read of in the newspaper.

From your description of the object you saw, it was probably a meteor.

Sincerely,
