" ee ee ae 2 aoe at mi wn koa & aa ie -, ~ ta & “a me Suh Sau HEADQUARTERS 775TH AIRCRAFT CONTROL AND WARNING SQUADRON Cambria, California At about 2100 hours 2nd March 1953, an object, red in color app= earing to be about one (1) foot in diameter, was seen. This object was first thought to be antenna corona, but when I went outside at appro~ ximately 2115 PST the object moved off in a northwesterly direction at an excessive rate of speed so as to appear the size of a baseball in a very few seconds. The object moved in a very peculiar manner, ie; it acted like a light suspended from a beloon, sort of a swaying motion. The object gave a long dip as it moved out to sea. At about 2120 I called A/2C Haag and also A/2C Delinski and they also saw the object which was then far out to sea and slowly moving. The altitude at first sight appear= ed about 1000 feet but after more careful study it could have been much higher as it was about 30 degrees above the horizen when first sighted. y y pi "BENJAMIN F BRUNGES JR, AF36410,50 T/Sgt, 775th AC&W Squadron a weiss Ta WSAF. mim 746//rs Won Gs Lenk N28, Oate Afb PP Declassification Authority: NND 57565
