AI-Generated Summary
A 1946 Swedish military report documenting an illustrator's sighting of a high-altitude object that left a cloud-like trail. The witness compared the appearance of the object to a V-bomb he claimed to have seen in 1945.
This document is a formal report issued by the Malmö Defense District (Malmö försvarsområde) on July 11, 1946, addressed to the Air Defense Department of the Defense Staff. The report details an oral account provided by Torsten Frykmar, an illustrator for the newspaper Sydsvenska Dagbladet. According to the report, on July 6, 1946, at 14:25, Frykmar observed a 'wave-like object' at a very high altitude. Shortly after the initial sighting, the object produced a dense, white, cloud-like streak. Due to noise from the street, the witness could not hear any sound associated with the object. Five minutes later, Frykmar observed the phenomenon again from a rooftop, noting that the cloud-like streak had become more dispersed. He was unable to provide details regarding the object's movement or flight path. The report notes that Frykmar claimed to have previously witnessed a V-bomb over Ystad in January 1945, and he asserted that the phenomenon observed on July 6, 1946, shared the same appearance. The document concludes by referencing an attached sketch of the observation points and directions. The report is signed by P. R. Jahnke, Chief of Staff.
