This FBI Albuquerque office memorandum, dated May 8, 1964, reports on an unidentified flying object seen at Socorro, New Mexico, on April 24, 1964. Special Agent D. Arthur Byrnes, Jr. went to the site and describes four depressions, burned grass and circular marks in the ground. The memo also gives Officer Lonnie Zamora's detailed account of a flame and a roar, a shiny aluminum-like object with two figures in white coveralls, a red insignia, and the object's departure. The memo states that it contains no conclusions.
