PAGE 9 OF 9 PAGES DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE WASHING 1 0N ?0330 OFF IC..L OF rHi:: SE..CRET.ARY President Johnson has asked that I reply to your re- c : letter regarding unidentified flying objects (UFOs). The Air Force is responsible for investigatlng re- p c:-::e d sightings of UFOs to determine if they pose a th~:at to the United States. After investigating some 1 2 .COO sightings in the past 20 years, no evidence has beL~ presented to prove that they do. Attached is infor- Q2:ion on UFOs which I hope you will find interesting and 1.n1ormat:Lve. I am info~ned that we do not have a record of the sis.--.ting of August 1967 ~Jhich you mention. Therefore, it is requested you complete the attached questionnaire and ma it in the envel ope provided so that an analysis of yo_:::-observation can b e made. It wil l not be n ecessary ic~ )"OU to trave l t o ashington to make this r eport. Thank you fo~ bringing this matter to our attention. oc~2s:er, New York 14607 Sincerely, B. M.
