This Central Intelligence Agency memorandum for record, signed by F. C. Durant of the Office of Scientific Intelligence, records a briefing on unidentified flying objects given to the Board of National Estimates (ONE) on 29 January. P. G. Strong presented a history of O/SI interest and action on the subject and showed motion picture films of sightings at Tremonton, Utah, and Great Falls, Montana. The Board had already received the Scientific Advisory Panel report, and the briefing served as background for an ATIC briefing on 30 January.
