Dear Mr. [redacted]

This is in reply to your request for an evaluation of your report of an aerial object which you could not identify.

It has been determined by our investigation office that your sighting has the characteristics of an aircraft observation. The local FAA does not carry all flight plans for military aircraft in the area.

Since you say you are familiar with the scientific type laser, you will recognize that because of the coherent nature of laser light the beam is confined to a narrow angle and is not visible except from places

Sirs,

On May 10, 1965 I reported the sighting of a U.F.O. in the Milwaukee area of Wisconsin to the Air Force Office of Special Investigations.

I was later contacted and told that my letter of 10 May 65 would be forwarded to this office in Washington D.C.

It seems to me that nearly three months is ample time for a reply to my inquiry. I have heard nothing further and I am getting damn impatient.

I was told I may have been sighting a new experimental laser type light in the tail section of an A
