The Black Vault (DIA, FOIA release) · 12 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This Black Vault release of Defense Intelligence Agency message traffic holds several attaché intelligence reports on UFO sightings. A 1987 report from the US defense attaché in Ghana describes a large metallic object seen over Accra and the Volta Region on 27 July 1987, including a detailed account from a Ghana Air Force pilot. A 1982 message covers lights in the sky east of Finland. A 1980 report from Lima says Peruvian Air Force Su-22 jets tried without success to intercept a UFO near Mariano Melgar Air Base, La Joya.

REF: IIR

1. FOR BETTER OR WORSE, I HAVE TOLD THAT I WOULD FORWARD TO WASHINGTON THE INFO AVAILABLE ON THE UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT (UFO) OBSERVED HERE--TO SEE WHETHER THE USG MIGHT BE ABLE TO SUGGEST ANY FEASIBLE EXPLANATION(S). TESTING HIS SENSE OF HUMOR, I SUGGESTED THE UFO MIGHT HAVE BEEN AN EXPERIMENTAL MISSILE LAUNCHED BY QADHAFI. FORTUNATELY, PASSED THE TEST.

2. NOT KNOWING WHAT OFFICE OR AGENCY SHOULD BE SADDLED WITH THIS RESPONSIBILITY, WE HEREBY AWARD IT TO YOU, ASKING THAT YOU PASS THE QUERY TO SOME ONE WHO MIGHT BE ABLE TO TELL US SOMETHING. IF POSSIBLE, I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SOME ADVICE THAT WOULD BE RELEASE-ABLE TO HIM. AN INTERIM RESPONSE WOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED. REGARDS. ADMIN
