ATIC EVALUATION:

A complete local investigation, conducted by CWO Jusitman, Pio
of Fordland Air Station, resulted in no additional information other
then that originally reported.

On 22 Sep 54, Capt Hardin, ATIAE-5, called CWO Justman and asked him
to check for possible helicopter activity in the area during the time of
the sighting - results - negative.

CWO Justmen stated that the two (2) observers were very sincere, of
average intelligence and he (Justman) believed the men observed something
definitely unusual to then.

EVALUATION - Unknown.

clouds or formations of silver objects. They were far enough away

At about 11:00 AM on Sept. 22, 1954, myself and
erp gat Ae being employees of Webster Gas eee ny of Marshfield,
Missouri were returnin g from soe. Missouri ere we had completed

is known as the Scout Camp Road, we observed far to the west three

x stopped the truck to watch these objects and after ibout 2 minutes
| my partner aoticed another object at what we gusssed to be 600 fee
high and about 200 yards SW. This object was somewhat like a boome
erand in shape with the exception that one side or wing was very
short and the othsr side or Wing much longer. If s object was as
close as we thought I would gues he entire width to be about 6 or 7
feet. This object was very thin in the wing section and the body as
well. This object was very thin in the ving ssction and the body as
welle This object was silent. It appeared to be covered or made
of some sort of plastic or very thin material. It revolved very slowly,
he entire object revolved, not just the one wing. is it.revolved and
the wing came around near the sun it seemed to shins rough or nearly
through because of the changing in color, it would seem to be much
| lighter in color when the sun was behind it. The color was of a dark
an with 2 black stripes Beer the end or the wing or rotor. After we
wavehsd the object for a few minutes it started to cli ithout
changing its flight phareobent atten or without sainins a RPM of its

started to come down much slower than it had climbded climb

could finc .ny other trace of this object. after some minutes we found
two places in the earth completely pulverized but dia not show any sign
of an animal track, this might or might not of had anything to do with

it but it did seem strange in such soft dirt that if an animal or human

had made it that it did not leave any tracke

When we first noticed this object it seemed to hover ut about the
600 foot level. The wing or rotor was slightly curved upward at the
tip and near the two dark stripes. When this object stopped its ro-
tating und started to fall the wing or rotor was pointed up indicating
the base of this wing which would be tiie body was the heaviest part.
At no time was there much speed involved in any fashions ‘Jhile falling
4t did not flutter or turn at all tut fell straisht down past the
timber line. Before falllng past the timber line we watched this object
for about 15 minutes. After the two of us searched the area very
throughly we returned to Marshfield, Missouri and I called the Fordland
‘Air Base and talked with CWO Ae Re Justman about this object, h

four men to Marshfield, Missouri where they picked the two of us up and
we returned to the area and made a more through search and of @ much
wider area but without findins any mors trace of this odject than we
had found before. «at about 6:00 PM, CWO A. R. Justman and Myself ree
turned to the area and made a third try at findings ths object but still
failed to find anything at all other than the two places in the sarth
that was torn upe

After leaving the truck in the beginning to start ths first search
Mr, @@MBPand myself did not see the silver objects asain that first
attracted our attention. The two of us had time to study the object
