Reference the attached letter fr requesting
information on his recent unidentified observations. The first
observation of August l965 is very similar to an observation of
an infra-red photo mission. The color of the lights, slow speed,
2, low altitude and the noise are all characteristic of this type
of observation. The noise is caused by a generator used in
operating the equipment. The second sighting of l September
could be caused by test aircre aft at high altitude as
M311 suggests.
