TL;DR

A 1946 Swedish military report documenting a civilian sighting of an unidentified, multi-colored light moving at low altitude near Finnekumla. The witness described the object's movement as similar to a descending balloon.

This document is a formal report from the Stabsexpeditionen of the Göteborgs Försvarsområde to the Hemvärnsexpeditionen (Fo 32), dated August 16, 1946. It details a telephone report provided by a man named Hugo Larsson from Vegby. Larsson reported observing an unidentified light near Finnekumla church between 00:15 and 00:45 on August 16, 1946. The witness described the object as displaying alternating red, green, and white lights. Its movement was characterized as slowly swaying and moving slowly toward the north at a low altitude above the horizon. The report concludes by noting that the light eventually disappeared below the horizon, an action the witness compared to a balloon being hauled down. The document is signed by Ragnar Anderson, commander of the Gällstad Home Guard (Gällstads hvo).

Ljuset försvann till slut under horisonten, likt en nedhalad ballong.
