Documents / FOIA release
This Central Intelligence Agency information report, dated 2 August 1956, collects unevaluated accounts from a source. The source says that in spring 1954, while in a military hospital near Stalingrad, they twice saw an unseen object cross the sky with strong air vibration and a screeching noise. The report also describes a May 1956 radar observation of a fast high-altitude formation reported to Hungary's Ministry of Defense, along with a wave of Hungarian flying saucer reports that officials dismissed as a myth.

INFORMATION REPORT PART II AND DISSEMINATED BY CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY USN/Orlingrad Fant-mering Flying Objects Over Baliengad In Spring 1954 PART III (CONTROL) USN/Orlingrad Spring 1954 Spring 1954 THIS IS UNEVALUATED INFORMATION In the spring of 1954, I was hospitalized for treatment for jaundice at a military hospital near the Barrikadi Mutilations Works (48 48 X - 44 32 X). On two occasions during the period of my convalescence, I, as well as other patients at the hospital, observed the flight of an unknown object from horizon to horizon, flying from southeast to northwest. This object appeared to be climbing. I cannot describe the object, but as I remember, it took approximately one minute for the object to leave the range of my vision. This object caused a great amount of vibration in the air and made a screeching, whistling noise which was different from the noise made by an artillery shell in flight. I could not see the object itself, but I did see disturbance in the air which seemed to envelop it.
