AI-Generated Summary
A civilian reported a shiny, bullet-shaped object in West Milton, Ohio, on October 29, 1965. The Air Force classified the case as 'insufficient data' because the witness failed to return the required follow-up documentation.
This document consists of a Project 10073 record and subsequent correspondence regarding an unidentified aerial observation in West Milton, Ohio, on October 29, 1965. A civilian witness, accompanied by five others, reported observing a shiny, bullet-shaped object with no wings, which left a 30-40 foot contrail while traveling in a southwest direction. The observation lasted approximately five minutes, and the witness noted that the object was so bright it caused discomfort to their eyes. The Air Force, represented by Major Hector Quintanilla, Jr., Chief of Project Blue Book, determined that the initial report provided insufficient data for a formal evaluation. Consequently, the Air Force sent FTD Form 164 to the witness on November 1, 1965, and again on November 24, 1965, requesting that the witness and the other observers complete the form to facilitate further analysis. The case remained pending as of the date of the final correspondence, with the official conclusion recorded as 'INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR EVALUATION.'
Object looked like a bullet with no wings. A trail followed directly behind it heading SW. Object was so shiny that it hurt observers eyes to look at it.
