as November 3, 1967, when a made a typicai lose en-
counter, luminous body sighting. "It was big enough to nrie a car
in", said, was shaped like a cigar on snd was
round."
I believe there is a moral to be drawn from the Wellington case.
Had the Altus Air Force Base reacted promptly and done a good investi-
gation on this case, very early in the game, and in parti uiar, had
found out how Mr. had come into possession of said piciures, a
lot of later trouble could have been saved. We still don't know how
the pictures came being.
They are familiar with UFo li
preferential interpretation their sighting. The sighting was of
short duration and the telescopic sighting was 20 seconds or less,
hardly enough time tò make a cold appraisal at a time of high excite-
ment. Proper investigation at the local level -could have easily
determined how much of this is interpretation and n w much was fact.
The evaluation "aircraft" on this is ludicrous, if any credence
whatever is given to the sanity and reliability of the observer. If
it was an aircraft, then it created in the mind of the observer an
entire fantasy, because as the observer stated, "there is no object
I've ever seen similar to this object I saw. Or could even compare
to it."
