PROJECT 10073 RECORD CARD - Point Pleasant, New Jersey, 19 September 1957

This document consists of a series of military communications and a Project 10073 record card regarding a UFO sighting in Point Pleasant, New Jersey, on September 19, 1957. The primary witnesses, a civilian couple, reported observing a white, boomerang-shaped object larger than a house descending toward a lot near Bay Avenue and Ocean Road. The female witness claimed that while observing the object, she heard a voice with no accent tell her to say nothing of the incident. She further reported that after the object departed, she and her husband searched the landing area and found the grass flattened with tracks resembling those of a child's wagon. The object was described as having no tail, trail, or exhaust, and making no sound. The sighting lasted approximately 20 minutes, during which the object allegedly reached an altitude as high as the trees before disappearing. Military intelligence units, including the 25th Air Division and the 4602nd AISS, processed the report. Official evaluations were highly skeptical, with the final conclusion on the record card attributing the event to 'hallucination.' Internal military correspondence reflects frustration with the reporting officer, suggesting that the officer failed to conduct a proper local investigation and that the reports were a reflection of poor judgment. The documents note that no radar contact was made and that no other reports were received from the area, which was described as having clear weather conditions at the time.
