Give significance in final one-sentence paragraph. List inclosures at lower left. Begin tert of report on AF Form 112—Part I I.) On 23 June 1953, an investigation was made of a reported flying object. The source, Mrs. F. K. Long, 11920 West 51st Street, Shawnee, Kansas, gave the report as it appears in Part II and attachments. Mrs. Long seemed to be thoroughly sincere in her report. She had never before seen or experienced anything of that nature before, but appeared to have a very clear picture in her mind of the object as she saw it. Mrs. Long was firmly convinced of the shape and appearance of the object, but could not advance any knowledge as to what she thought it might have been or the actual size of the object.
