This document contains a Project 10073 record regarding a civilian sighting of a flying object in Cheektowaga, New York, on June 10, 1965. The witness, who had read the book 'Flying Saucers and the U.S. Air Force' by Lt. Col. Lawrence J. Tacker, wrote to the Department of Defense on August 18, 1965, to report the incident. The witness described the object as 'V' shaped, white in color, and exhibiting a blinking effect, with no vapor trail. The Air Force responded by sending FTD Form 164 to the witness to collect further details, but the form was never returned. Consequently, the official conclusion recorded by the Air Force is 'INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR EVALUATION,' noting that the time of day, duration, and the full time-motion sequence of the object were missing from the initial report.
