This document is an Air Intelligence Information Report regarding an Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) sighting that occurred on March 15, 1955, near Klamath Falls, Oregon. The report details a sighting of a single, cigar-shaped object approximately thirty feet in length. The observer described the object as silver and green in color, noting that it changed to red and sometimes blue during the observation. The object was observed traveling south at an altitude of approximately 3,000 feet. The duration of the observation was five minutes, and the witness used 8x50 binoculars to view the object. The report notes that clouds were present at the 3,000-foot level. Following the initial report, a limited investigation was conducted, which included checking for radar and weather correlations; however, no such correlations were found. The investigation also received a second report regarding the same sighting, but the two accounts contradicted each other regarding the size and color of the object. The report mentions that a low-flying civilian aircraft was observed in the vicinity of Medford, Oregon, at an altitude of 5,000 feet, heading south-west, but this did not provide a definitive explanation for the sighting. The official conclusion stated in the document is that the cause of the sighting remains unknown. The report is signed by Major Norman M. Rosler, the Officer in Charge, and approved by a Colonel in the USAF. The document includes a memory sketch of the object's appearance, illustrating its cigar-like shape and the visual characteristics reported by the witness.
