JUNE THROUGH DECEMBER 1947 SIGHTINGS

This document is a comprehensive chronological log of aerial sightings reported between June 1947 and December 1947. The log is organized into three pages, covering the summer of 1947, July 1947, and the period from August through December 1947. Each entry records the date, location, observer, and an official evaluation of the event. The observers are categorized broadly, including civilians, military personnel, and instances where the observer is not stated. The evaluations provided for these sightings are diverse, ranging from identified objects such as aircraft, balloons, birds, and meteorological phenomena like sun dogs, meteors, and mirages, to cases labeled as hoaxes or those with insufficient data to reach a conclusion. Several entries note that specific case files are missing or that folders exist for certain incidents. The document also references specific military installations, such as Williams AFB, Muroc AFB, Hickham AFB, and Harmon Field, as locations for reported sightings. The log serves as a historical record of the early wave of UAP/UFO reports, documenting the military and civilian efforts to categorize and explain these aerial phenomena during the latter half of 1947.
