AI-Generated Summary
A civilian reported a UFO sighting in Columbus, Ohio, on July 4, 1965. The Air Force attempted to collect data via a formal questionnaire, but the witness failed to return it, resulting in a case closure due to insufficient data.
This document constitutes a Project 10073 record regarding an unidentified aerial phenomenon reported in Columbus, Ohio, on July 4, 1965. The initial report was received via telephone by Captain Gay, a Duty Controller at the 840 AD Command Post at Lockbourne Air Force Base. Following the report, the Air Force sent an FTD Form 164 to the witness to gather detailed information necessary for an official evaluation. The correspondence, signed by Sara Hunt of the Community Relations Division, Office of Information, requested that the witness complete the form as fully as possible. However, the record indicates that the form was never received or returned by the witness. Consequently, the official conclusion reached by the evaluating agency, FTD (TDEW/UFO), was that there was insufficient data for evaluation. The file includes the blank questionnaire, the memo routing slip requesting the form be sent, and the cover letter from the Air Force to the witness.
