Narrative

An observer watching a flight of five B-47 bombers on a southwesterly course over St. Louis noticed a sharp sun reflection at the rear of the formation, which drew attention to an unidentified round, flat (saucer-shaped) unpolished-aluminum object slightly behind the bombers. The object flew east-to-west in straight and level flight before rolling to the north, dropping down, and vanishing. Observation lasted approximately twelve seconds. Cause of sighting unknown.
