REPORT OF UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT

Date of observation: Tuesday, July 31, 1956.

Time: Around 8:20 A.M.

Speed: Equal to greater than jet. (positively not the speed of a meteor, or slow speed of a drifting balloon-- wind was 8--3 MPH south-easterly.)

Color: Brilliant, soft milky-whi…

Two separate reports of Unidentified Flying Objects sighted over Durango, Texas, were sent to James Connally Air Force Base, at Waco, in July and November, 1932, and each was separately and personally inves…

In addition to my initial report, I have also completed and returned your ATIC Form 164, both given in the clearest description possible in writing; but today I was fortunate to view at a local theater the film, "Unidentified Flyi…
