Rapport från besök vid Kulltorp (Värnamo) den 31/10 1946

This field report, dated November 1, 1946, details an investigation into a suspected object impact near Kulltorp, Värnamo, which allegedly occurred on October 12, 1946. The investigation was conducted by Eric Malmberg following an initial report from the Växjö-Jönköpings FO. Malmberg interviewed two local farmers, J. Persson and K. Enoksson, who were the primary witnesses. According to the witnesses, the object was dark or black, made a whining sound similar to a seabird, and was observed at an elevation of approximately 45 degrees, which contradicted the earlier FO report that estimated the altitude at 10 meters. The witnesses provided a sketch of the object, which appeared to be a four-pointed shape. Despite the witnesses being within 300 meters of the suspected impact site, they reported no light, no smoke, no water disturbance, and no sound of impact. A thorough search of the western side of the lake yielded no physical traces of an impact. Malmberg concluded that it was highly unlikely that an impact occurred in the lake as described and deemed further investigation unnecessary.
