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.

Dear Mr. Hoover,
Just recently I bought a copy of the magazine, "Real." ·1
This issue had a great deal of pictures about unidentified flying
objects and it also had a photo of two F. B. I. agents leading a silver
clad man, about one and a half to two feet tall, down an american
street. I know this sounds extraordinary, but this is what it had .
The photo was probably faked but I wanted to be doubly sure. Please
write me and tell me if there is any truth to this photo. Also this
photo was first published by some odd chance in a Cologne, Germany
newspaper.
Yours truly,
/ s/ Steven G. Gray ~
