Re: Flying Discs - Tacoma, \,:!" .
get to the bottom of the flying discs story as they sincerely believe there is
someone who knows the story of the discs and that they actually exist, and
that the Army, when approached for information, merely state that they know
nothing concerning them . JOfil'S0'1 also informed that Lieutenant BRO"l,1' and
Captain •AVIDSON had contacted him on July 20 , 1947, at Boise , Ldsho, regard
ing the discs and that is how he met them.
Unless advised th the contrary, no additional investigation is
being conducted in this matter, and it is being considered as Referred Upon
Completion to the Seattle Office . •
