headed westerly. A heavy vapor trail was left behind it. 1t's altiztn
Was approximately 20,000 earee

sshind it, about 5 mile: nd avout + mile to the right of it's vapo
trail, was a single jet firhter, apparently escorting it.. [t Was at t!
same altitude and also leaving a aller vapor trail.

About 7+ mile.to the left of the bomber and trailing it adout mile
was a round flourescent od-ect. This rotund ob;6ect matched the bombe2
speed, holdins it's same position, and disSapeared -radtall; Trom vie
soout seven minutes later. where was no sign of any vapor trail vehind
this ooZect, which acpesred to be at the sume altitude.

the einzle engine jet escort, on the right of tne vomber and behind
it, seemed to ve having mixture trouble with it's enrine, : its vapor
trail was continuous, but in irrerular puifs. ihe pilot of thie Bbingle
