Dear Mr. aga
Our Project Office at Wright-Patterson Air
Force Base has attempted to evaluata the two UFO
Sishtings you recently reported.
The sighting of March 1, 1964 has tentatively
been analyzed as a misinterpretation of a conven-
tional object. The duration of one hour 41 minutes
contains several sightings of multiple objects.
No time motion sequence can be interpreted from the
data presented. Some cnaracteristics of balloons,
aireraft and astronomical bodies are present.
With respect to the sighting of June 5, 1964,
rt
were meteors; nowever, the fourth ooject was not
desertioed in sufficient detail to enable analysis.
sincerely,

le to
1 March L96éeL is evaluated as mininterpretation
2ets. The duration of one hour 41 minutes con-
eral Si eh? ings of multiple objects. No time motion se-
quence can be interpreted from the data presented. Some charac-
Eerie of balloons, aircraft, and astronomical bodies are pre-
sent. The motion snd relation to various objects is confusing.
The duration of each object was omitted. Should Mr. QM de-
sire a more comple te wis eh » it is suggested that he report
each cdject separate
3. Regarding the sighting of 5 June 1964, these observations were
of four distinct objects with duration of 1, 5, and 40 seconds. It
is likely that 3 of the 4 objects observed were meteors, While the
fourth object was not described in sufficient detail for analysis,
“pais object is carried as insufficient data.
