JUI. 10 1968
Dear Mr
This will reply to your letter of July 7, I968, in which
you described your sighting of an unidentified flying object or
UFO.
Wihhout additional information, we cannot offer an explana-
tion of what you saw. However, if you will complete the attached
questionnaire and mail it in the inclosed envelope, our technical
people at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base will be able to investi-
gate further and make an evaluation.
Should you ever sight another UFo, please report it as soon as
possible to the nearest Air Force base. Each base in the United
Statea has a UrO investigator, who is a better positlon to make
an on-the-spot investigation, which usually results in a more accurate
analysis.
In the meantime, you might be able to identify the sighting
yourself by looking at categories of objects often reported as
UFo's in the Project Blu ook renor are inclosing.
Sincerely,
