AI-Generated Summary
The Air Force investigated a report of an unidentified object captured in a photograph by a teenager in 1967. The case was ultimately closed as having insufficient data for evaluation.
This document contains a Project 10073 record regarding an unidentified aerial object sighting in Boonville, Mississippi, in August 1967. The report originated from a letter sent by a parent on March 14, 1967, stating that their 14-year-old son had captured an 'unexplained air learned object' on film while vacationing in the vicinity of Gatlinburg, Tennessee, during the previous July or August. The family had the film developed in early March and sought information from the Air Force. The Air Force responded on May 26, 1967, via Lt. Colonel George P. Freeman, Jr., requesting that the family forward the photographs and negatives, along with technical camera data—such as the make and model of the camera, film type, shutter speed, focal length, and lens settings—to facilitate a comprehensive photographic analysis. The project record itself concludes that there was 'insufficient data for evaluation' and directs the reader to the case file for further details.
