Dear Sir,

After seeing this object in the sky on Mar 20th (Sunday) night at 8:00, I called the air force and on Monday they gave me your address, then on Monday night it was in the paper where these objects had landed in Michigan. To show you how sincere I am as I sit here writing to you. just like you would believe your boys in the air force that saw something on their Radar, as my son was in the Radar Sq. (Sage (A.D.C. in Mill Valley Calif. So as an air force Mother I feel it my duty to write to you

and also explain to you what I saw. I live in Elyria, south of the city and this object was going south. As I was turning into my drive here was this real large object in the sky. At first when you see it you think to yourself what is that. But yet it is so beautiful with its colors of rainbow, so I stopped my car immediately rolled down the window but the cars on Rt 20 kept me from hearing any sound. So I decided to turn my lights off to see if it was moving which it wasn't. So I turned my lights back on and decided to pull over on the opposite side of drive then

when I did that it moved very slowly on. Truthfully I did get scared when I found out after I blinked my lights it was stationery. I put the car away and ran real fast into the house, and told my husband. I was going to come in and get my husband but I didn't want to lose sight of it.

In its oval shape it reminded you like the "diragables". I could see the oval outline then flares all around it.

all colors of rainbow and large and not too high above me will never forget this.

I have served on Jury Duty for Murder Trials and you are not supposed to talk about it, but I know this was definitely something it had to be. So please in your utmost confidence. Hoping you don't mind me writing and telling you, but if the Air Force is doing this for security, all well and good. But I do hope to hear from you, as that is what you would want more sincere people giving you exact descriptions and information.

Most sincerely,

Mrs. Elyria, Ohio
