IR-1-61 Mr and Mi~ re parked in a lovers lane area approximately 4 miles nort of town. The automobile lights were off and the motor was not running. The object flew overhead but they could not determine the size nor altitude. Was sighted in the woods to the north over a mile away. They watched while it landed. There was a red light -not distinct -like a glow. They sat and watched for about 10 minutes. When Mr. got out of the car, the courtesy (ceiling) lights came on in the auto. When this happened, two lights came on in the object and pointed toward the auto. These liahts were one above the other and were brighter than any search lights Mr. had ever seen. They sh~ed for a 50 feet radius. When this happened, Mr. back in the car and started towards town. The object also took o stayed to one side of the automobile for about three miles. The lights from the object were so bright that tested his headlights several times to see if they were operating. Headlights were dim in comparison to the lights frorft the object. About one mile north of town the object took This same object has been sighted on three or four occasions prior to the reported one-=!ana_;on~several occasions since then. Has also been seen by an old farmer who accompanied Mr. to the scene. On the other occasions, the bright lights were not showing. The weather was clear. The object remained on the ground for approximately 10 minutes. Lt Colonel Dagert suggested that it was possibly a helicopter from Sherman Field, but , being a mechanic feels that he would recognize a helicopter. Miss will confirm story. L Lt Colonel Hager y says that Mr. s willing to accompany anyone who is interested to the scene. His mother insisted that the report be made, and they convinced Lt Colonel Hagerty that they saw something. He feels this is a good oppor- tunity for anyone who is interested in seeing a flying saucer. C<J.!MENTS OF Ttt! PREPARING OFFICER: None ~-.--lOS PH M. FAHEY JR.
