TL;DR

A security guard at Camp San Luis Obispo reported a long, silver, circling object on June 5, 1955. The military investigation concluded the object was possibly a balloon due to insufficient data.

This document consists of a Project 10073 record card and an associated teletype message regarding an unidentified aerial phenomenon reported on June 5, 1955, near Camp San Luis Obispo, California. The witness, a 45-year-old security guard, observed a single object for approximately 45 minutes. The object was described as long and silver, with a nose larger than its tail. During the observation, the object was seen circling and climbing before the witness lost sight of it as darkness fell. The weather conditions were reported as clear with no winds. The teletype, transmitted on June 7, 1955, confirms the details of the sighting and notes that there was very little traffic in the area at the time. The official conclusion recorded on the card is 'Possibly Balloon,' though it is also marked as having insufficient data for evaluation. The report was processed through military channels, including the 669th ACWRON at Port Hueneme, the 27th ADIV at Norton AFB, and the Air Technical Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson AFB.
