AF FORM 112—PART I! (SIRE o AIR INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION REPORT FROM (Agency) REPORT NO. | PAGE OF PAGES Statement by A/1C larry W. Skinner At 2139 Base Operations called us in the tower, via intercom, and asked us if we could see any lights east of the tower. At the time we were all watching the landing strip. Looking to the east we did see what appeared to be seven red lights suspended just over Dénison. They looked just like any pert lights of an aircraft. The only difference was that these lights seemed to be stationary until we saw that they were rising very slowly. We took pictures of them with a stereo-camera we keep in the tower for such purposes. We took about 10 pictures of different lens openings and shutter speeds. The lights kept rising slowly until about 2155 when they faded out. Throughout their ascent, they appeared to keep the same formation except for one, which was to the upper right. That one light drifted farther apart from the others. Just before fading out, each light flickered on and off. . But that could have been the atmospheric condition. . Any indication of altitude was practicaljy impossible, since we did not know the size of the lights nor the distance they were from the tower.
