TL;DR

A 13-year-old witness reported a formation of lights over Philadelphia on February 3, 1965. The Air Force classified the case as 'Insufficient Data' after the witness failed to provide additional requested information.

This document contains a Project Blue Book sighting report from a 13-year-old witness in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, regarding an event on the night of February 3, 1965. The witness reported observing a formation of white lights with a single red light on the left side, measuring approximately 300 feet wide and 500-600 feet long. The witness described hearing a 'loud roar' as the object passed overhead, moving in a northwest direction. The witness provided a sketch of the formation and noted that they had an interest in UFOs and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. The Air Force, specifically the Foreign Technology Division at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, reviewed the report and determined that the information provided was insufficient for a formal analysis. Correspondence from February 1965 indicates that the Air Force requested the witness complete an FTD Form 164 to provide more detailed information. However, the case file notes that the requested additional data was never received after a 90-day period, leading the Air Force to classify the case as 'Insufficient Data'.

The only information that might be interesting to you is that I have read quite a bit on U.F.O's and am very interested in the possibility of other life in the galaxy.
