TL;DR

A 1955 UFO sighting report from Green Bay, Wisconsin, was officially classified as a hoax by the 4602d AISS. The investigation concluded the witness fabricated the event, which included claims of a small creature and physical evidence consisting of broken pottery.

This document is an Air Intelligence Information Report regarding a UFO sighting reported in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on August 25, 1955. The report, prepared by 2nd Lt. Ronald E. Lief of Flight 3-A, 4602D AISS, details the account of a 26-year-old male witness who claimed to have seen a helicopter-like object with three rotors land 100 to 150 feet from his residence. The witness alleged that a small, one-foot-high creature or dog emerged from the craft, and that he subsequently chased it, stumbling over pieces of pottery in the process. The witness further claimed to have seen multiple transparent parachutes and other aerial phenomena. Following an investigation by the 676th AC&W Squadron and the Green Bay Filter Center, military officials determined the report to be a hoax. Investigators noted that the witness had a history of claiming to observe phenomenal events and had been under a doctor's care. The physical evidence provided by the witness—pieces of purple, yellow, and white pottery—was dismissed as irrelevant to the sighting. The final assessment by the preparing officer and the approving commander, Colonel John M. White Jr., was that the entire incident was a fabrication.

Due to fantasy of UFOB, and apparent fabrication on the part of the source, and the fact that on several other occasions source has claimed to have observed what appear to be phenomenal happenings, the reliability of the information is very doubtful.
