Department of War · 290 pages · text from the file's own layer

This section of FBI file 62-HQ-83894 collects Bureau correspondence on flying saucers from 1957 to 1966. It includes a 1957 memo on the rise in UFO reports after Sputnik, in which the Air Force told the FBI that the recent sightings were nonauthentic. It also holds a Havana report of a disc over Matahambre, Cuba, and inquiries about Robert T. Stone's Inter Continental Aerial Research Foundation and a Torrington, Connecticut sighting. Hoover's replies state that UFOs were never within FBI jurisdiction.

flying object for ident i f i cation . Up to th is po i nt I
navenot been ab+e to locate where it i s except that
is supposed to be in the prope r hands .
Quoting f r om a letter o f March 14 f r om Major Donald E.
Keyhoe , "F r om past experience with photog r aph i c
we cons i de r it unl i kely that you will ever see your pic
\ ture again . 11
Also , from other U. F . O. societies I have received the
same perdict i ons .
I would like the assurance that th i s col ored
will be returned to me within a short time , as it would
