About 2300 hours local on 11 August the Fire Department called the Control Tower and asked if we would look to the south of the tower and if we could see any strange sights in the sky.

The edges seemed rough and trailed along the side to give it a spimning effect. It seemed to be flat. It was standing in one spot spinning for few seconds and then disappeared to the left and down with great speed. (Given by A/3c. James C. Ray, AF14403680.) b. Following was given by A/3c.
