TL;DR

A civilian in Yonkers, New York, reported four unidentified objects on 19 March 1967 and provided 8mm film for analysis. The Air Force concluded the objects were likely clouds due to poor image definition.

This document details a UFO sighting report from 19 March 1967 in Yonkers, New York. A civilian witness reported observing four unidentified objects floating or flying over the bay for approximately 30 to 45 minutes, beginning at 6:00 AM. The witness, who lived on the 16th floor of an apartment building, observed the objects from their living room window and captured 25 feet of 8mm color film. The witness described the objects as metallic grey and noted that the larger object on the left exhibited a slight wobbling motion. The witness initially hesitated to report the sighting until the film was developed, at which point they contacted the Air Force. The case was processed under Project 10073 and assigned Work Order Number 67-112. The film was sent to the Foreign Technology Division at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base for evaluation. The subsequent Photo Analysis Report (68-3), dated 12 January 1968, concluded that the lack of image definition precluded identification of the objects, categorizing the sighting as 'Possible Other (CLOUDS).' The correspondence shows a series of follow-up letters from the witness to Project Bluebook, expressing frustration over the delay in receiving the results of the investigation and the return of their film. The film was eventually returned to the witness in March 1968, and a note in the file indicates that one reel of 16mm film was later transferred to the Audio-Visual Divisions of the National Archives and Records Service (NARS) in March 1976.
