STATEMENT

At 0930 AM I was called from my office by a group of enlisted men standing in front of Bldg 315 located at Brooks AFB, to see an object that was in the sky. I just observed this object which at first appeared to me to be a weather balloon. It was round and reflected the sun as though it was silver in color. This object just hovered in approximately the same spot and seemed to wobble occasionally. I momentarily shifted my eyes to another direction and saw two more of these same objects traveling at tremendous speed. One was headed in approximately 270° and the other was headed…

At about 0915, 9 October 1952 I observed several people standing in front of the building looking up at the sky. They said they were watching a round silvery object away up in the sky. Suddenly Captain Agnes, who was one of the people watching said that he saw 2 other objects traveling at a high rate of speed across the sky near this first object, then sped upward out of sight. At that time I became interested and went out in front of the building. I finally located the object which seemed to be stationary at a very high altitude. It shone very brightly…

STATEMENT

On October 9th 1952 at 0930 I observed what appeared to be a
weather balloon above Brooks Air Force Base. During this time

at about twenty thousand feet. It was silver and circular
in shape.

Between 0930 and 1000 hours on the 9th of October 1952 I saw what I thought was a weather balloon at about ten thousand feet. Moving into a position that was directly overhead, at a very slow speed. I observed this object for about fifteen minutes.

STATEMENT

On the day of October 1952 at the hours of 0930 to 1030 A.M. Brooks Air Force Base, I saw hovering in the sky at about 40,000 feet a silvery object which actually stayed as if in one place. Then glancing off to the Northwest, I saw this silvery object traveling at a terrific rate of speed then zoom straight up into the stratosphere and then disappear. Captain [illegible] called my attention again and then we saw another silvery object zoom the same way straight across and then up at a terrific rate of speed. The other silvery object just hovered above for about an hour or so and fin…
