Dear Major:
On December 21 both Bill Powers and I talked with Mr e who
is the ohap who reported the sighting at Littleton,
sighting very similar to one renorted within halr an hour oi one in Clinton,
he is Airian First Class Lowell F. Buffett, l2284334, UsAl, and the way Air
Force people are shifted around there is little chance of lotching on to him
witnout considerable chnsing. If it is possible, however, I would like to
do so.
Coning now to Winkle: conversation was a long one because he has
a meticulous, clerk-type nind, very attentive to detail. I Even by deliberately
trying to throw him ofr making a srall misstatement, he would pick it up
and tell us in detail and tell us just why ve were wrong! I'm afreid we talked
to him for about forty-five minutes which is outrageous , now that I think of
it.
Rather fact. and hardly one t
too much lmagination. .
He Gald the flame he saw was concentrated similar to that you get when you
Cocus a ELame on an acetylene torch. The object came.up from very rough
his sighting, he went home, got a mag to make sure whether there was an airport
anywhere in line from which a rocket might have been launched. Apparently there
wis not,
Winkle did not know , had not heard, of the independent sighting near Clinton,
Towa. His impression of his sighting was that it ves a A secret device. I Whet
esked wiy it couln't have been an ordinary jet, he said with a jet he voult hnve
the object and then actually falling away, not like a jet spurting oub.
