This Internet Archive item compiles 1965 to 1968 records from National Research Council of Canada files (RG 77, Vol. 306) on non-meteoritic sightings. It contains fireball and UFO telex reports from RCAF stations, RCC Vancouver and the RCMP, covering lights seen over Sydney, Vancouver, Cochrane, Toronto, Whitehorse and Shediac. It also includes an RCMP investigation of a 12 July 1968 impact at Tobin Road, Sydney Mines, Nova Scotia, which concluded the object was probably a meteorite, not a UFO.

## 23 June, 1967 Mr. J. M. McCormick Plantagenet Ontario Dear Mr. McCorpLock: The substance which you need to use consists of strips of metal-coated plastic. It has the property that a target-cloud of it in the air is a good reflector of radar waves. If dropped by aircraft it will confuse radars and bake them from observation. It comes in small balls that normally break apart when dropped from an airplane. It appears that you caught a place which had not broken up. During world war 11 it came to be called "window" or "chaff". Yours sincerely, PA 2 . Upper Atmosphere Research
