Correspondence regarding Sundsvalls Posten clippings of light phenomena

This document is a formal communication from Captain R. Westlin of the Swedish Defense Staff's Air Defense Department (Försvarsstabens Luftförsvarsavdelning). The correspondence serves to transmit newspaper clippings from the publication 'Sundsvalls Posten', dated October 31 and November 1, 1946. These clippings concern reports of light phenomena observed in the region. Specifically, the clippings detail a sighting of a 'fireball' (eldkula) in Stöde on a Wednesday. Two witnesses, a road foreman named Johansson and a railway official named Carlén, observed the object while located on the road below Fridhem. They reported that the object moved in a northwesterly direction, traveling in a horizontal line rather than falling straight down. The observation occurred at approximately 20:38. The report notes that because a similar sighting was reported over Sidsjö at 20:40, it is likely that both reports refer to the same phenomenon.
