Dear
26th May 1993
2a Room 8245
Thankyou for your letter received today in reply to mine of the
26th May last.
As promised please find enclosed a copy of my report re: the
events of the night 30th/31st March 1993. As is usual with
these types of cases once the event has passed there is not
much more we can do with it. Our only hope is that something
else might pop out of the woodwork at a later date to throw
some light on it. ·
There appears to have been a lot of ufo activity over the last
few months particularly in the Gwent area of South Wales. Some
of the sightings are very similar to the events in that area in
1980 and 1982 which were in themselves quite extraordinary -
but again once reported upon what else can we do. One day
perhaps we shall have a landing or some tangible evidence of
what these 'things' are and more importantly - what their
doing!
I hope you find the report of some interest and if you have any
ideas or theories on this event please let me know.
Once again many thanks for your help and look forward to
speaking to you again.
Kind regards
