Report regarding reported observation on 7/9 1946
AI-Generated Summary
A Swedish church caretaker reported observing an unidentified individual using a radio-like device while a low-flying aircraft was heard nearby. Military investigations confirmed no Swedish Air Force activity or authorized radio experiments occurred in the area at the time.
On September 7, 1946, at approximately 21:00, G.A. A:son Aspe, a church caretaker, reported an encounter in the Bergshamra colony area, located about one kilometer southeast of Ulriksdal, Sweden. While working on his allotment, Aspe heard a foreign language that was neither German, English, nor French. Upon investigating the source of the sound, he observed a relatively young man wearing brown trousers and a light jacket, with headphones on his head. The man was sitting on the ground with a box equipped with a metal rod approximately one meter long. Aspe heard the man say 'Hallå Stockholm' with a distinct foreign accent. When the man noticed Aspe, he immediately fled toward the Bergshamra barn and disappeared. Simultaneously, Aspe noted the sound of an airplane flying very low, and observed that the man was facing the direction of the aircraft noise while speaking. An investigation by the Defense Staff (Fst/L) confirmed that no Swedish Air Force aircraft were in the air after dark on that date. Records from Bromma airport showed a Danish DC-3 departure at 19:10 and a Swedish DC-4 arrival at 21:20, with no other traffic or radio experiments reported by FRA or FOA during the relevant timeframe.
