K• THE PREPARING OFFICER IS IN THE WING INTELLIGENCE OFFICER OF THE
366 TACTICAL FIGHTER WING, ENGLAND AIR FORCE BASE, LOUISIANA•
HELICOPTER OPERATION WAS FIRST CONSIDERED BUT A CHECK OF LOCAL
AIR FORCE AND ARMY (FT POLK, LA), HELICOPTER OPERATIONS SHOUED
NO FLYING AT THAT TIME• ANOTHER CONSIDERATION WAS THE POSSIBIL-
ITY OF A LIGHT FIXATION CAUSED BY A LIGHT IN TOTAL
DARKNESS- THE FACT THAT THE OBSERVED CLAIMED TO HAVE GLANCED
AWAY AT INTERVALS AND CORROBATIONS BY HIS WIFE DISCOUNTS THE
FIXATION THEORY. THE REPOR OF AWEATHER BALLON EINDING AUPEARS
TO BE THE MOST LIKELY SOLUTION AT THIS TIME.
