TL;DR

A memorandum detailing an interview with a witness who observed two unidentified greenish-yellow balls in the sky. The Assistant Director of Scientific Intelligence concludes the objects were likely jet aircraft exhausts.

This Memorandum for the Record details an interview conducted regarding an observation of unconventional or saucer-like aircraft on 27 October. The subject, who was traveling by train, reported observing two greenish-yellow balls rising rapidly in the night sky. The first object was initially viewed at an altitude of 700 to 800 feet, followed by a second ball. The subject noted that the objects appeared to be whirling and followed a single trajectory without a break, leaving no trail. The subject did not observe any lights other than the yellowish glow. The observation lasted between five and ten minutes. The author of the memorandum, H. Scoville, Jr., Assistant Director of Scientific Intelligence, expresses skepticism regarding the report. He notes that the testimony does not support the existence of unconventional aircraft and suggests that the objects were likely the exhausts of normal jet aircraft performing a steep climb. The author further highlights a contradiction between the subject's testimony and an original dispatch sent from Prague, noting that he had no opportunity to verify the contents of that dispatch prior to its transmission.

It is quite possible that the objects seen were the exhausts of normal jet aircraft in a steep climb.
