Documents / FOIA release
This FBI file section collects Bureau correspondence on flying discs from 1947 to 1950. It includes a Portland field office memo on police officers who saw a silvery object over the city on September 11, 1947, and letters from citizens with sightings, theories and questions, along with Hoover's form replies. There is also a Chicago memo about a letter describing a secret saucer bomber, and a Louisville report on Al Hixenbaugh's June 1950 film of a disk. Other items include a Yuba City informant's drawings of a supposed Russian saucer and a note on Donald Keyhoe's book.

When you get these drawings go to the military officials and don't get me in Dutch I know you will not on my life is the price I would pay sooner or later the commisie agents figured I had give this away and to not have any F.B.T. men tagging me that would look suspicious to the Commisie agents. I am talking a hell of chance and I want some more information get from them and I pass it along to you as fast as I get it
