24th NORAD Region Senior Director's Log (Malmstrom AFB, Montana)

This document is a compilation of entries from the 24th NORAD Region Senior Director's Log at Malmstrom AFB, Montana, detailing a series of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) sightings occurring between November 7 and November 19, 1975. The reports originate primarily from Strategic Air Command (SAC) missile sites and personnel. The sightings frequently involved objects described as red, orange, yellow, or white, often exhibiting lights and varying in number. Specific incidents include objects illuminating site driveways, objects appearing to issue smaller tubular black objects, and objects that increased in speed and altitude when approached by military fighters. Radar surveillance was frequently employed but often failed to correlate with visual sightings, with the log noting instances where radar contact was lost or never established. On several occasions, the objects were reported to disappear as the sun rose or when military aircraft arrived in the vicinity. The log concludes with an entry from November 19, 1975, describing an object observed by a cook and an FSC at a fast rate of speed, following terrain at a low altitude with lights significantly brighter than those of a jet. The document is signed by Colonel Terrence C. James, Director of Administration.
