Incident Report: Sighting at Tygförrådet Karls-Åby, Bofors, 9 July 1946

This document is an official report from the Örebro FO Stabsexpeditionen, dated July 10, 1946, addressed to the Air Defense Department of the Defense Staff. It details a sighting of an unidentified light phenomenon reported by a supply worker named Lundström at the Karls-Åby supply depot in Bofors. The incident occurred on July 9, 1946, at 14:30. The witness described the object as comet-like, exhibiting a strong bluish light and leaving a trail of whitish smoke. The object was observed at an altitude of approximately 900 meters, moving rapidly toward the northeast. The observation lasted only about one minute. The report notes that other personnel at the depot were working indoors at the time and were unable to witness the event. The report was delayed in reaching the Defense Staff until July 10, 1946, at 15:10, and was therefore not transmitted via telephone. The document is signed by Arthur Forsberg, acting chief of staff.
