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.

JiQ.IE:U A police officer described as sober, deperuiable, mature
and not known to engage in flights of fantasy reported seeing an
unidentified flying object rise from the earth with a roar, emitting
bluish and orange flames and disappear over a distant mountain. When
he reported his observations, representatives of the local law enforce•
ment agencies searched the scene and noted four small irregul arly
shaped smouldering areas and four regular depressed areas at the site.
The unidentified flying object was described as oval shaped; about
twenty feet long; with a red insignia; there _is no indication in the
referenced teletype that Air Force had been advised. Our policy is
not to investigate but assure that Air Force is cognizant. Military
is investigating and Albuquerque Office is maintaining liaison.
