Project 10073 Record Card - N.W. Washington, D.C. - 27 June 1956

This document is a Project 10073 record card detailing a UFO sighting that occurred in Northwest Washington, D.C., on June 27, 1956, at 0210Z. The report was generated following a phone call to the AFOIN Duty Officer, as documented on a memo routing slip dated June 28, 1956, signed by M/Sgt P. S. Evans. The primary witness was a 13-year-old individual, whose report was corroborated by their parents. The witnesses described observing two round, yellow, pin-head-sized lights flying in formation. The objects reportedly moved in a circular path before transitioning to a straight path and disappearing to the east while climbing. The entire observation lasted between 5 and 10 seconds. The weather conditions at the time were reported as clear with specific wind data provided for various altitudes. The official conclusion recorded on the card suggests the objects were possibly aircraft, though the brevity of the observation made definitive identification difficult. A subsequent note by Captain Matthias C. Olsen of the USAF states that no analysis could be made of the information provided.
