Project Blue Book file, part 2

Read from the scan by GLM-OCR; expect the odd misread word.

If a radar that Guard of sorts appeared as natural targets on the GCR and that corner checks made in determine possible self-function of the GCR radar failed to indicate anything was technically wrong. By estimation that the unidentified objects in this group moved at the rate of between 2000 IAS alarms per hour. We computed this speed by using the range margins on the GCR scope.

Sgt added that another UFO was sighted on the OCA radar at about 72002, 13 August 1956. This object was tracked on the radar screen for approximately 16 seconds. Course of the object being tracked was from about 10 miles east of Nantucket to approximately 25 miles west of this station. Speed of this object was estimated to be in excess of 1000 miles per hour. All radar returns appeared normal on the scope for this object except for the last return which seemed slightly weaker than the rest. Sgt explained that object suddenly disappeared off the radar screen by rapidly moving out of the OCA radiation pattern. Light conditions were night. Weather was clear with good visibility and light winds.

## 1/2C Vagears.

The following information pertaining to an unidentified Flying Object lighted electronically on the Bentwaters OCA at 21302, 13 August 1956 was submitted by A.7C OCA Operator, 126th AACB Squadron, EAL Station Bentwaters, England.

indicated that he tracked one unidentified Flying Object no the Kentwaters This enoon for approximately 31 seconds at 21.30Z, 13 August 1955. The site of the Billy when picked up was that of a normal aircraft target. Billy distrised in size and intensity to the running point before crossing the entire cadar course.

The identification timing of Jack and Stoken so at an estimated 25 to 30 miles east southeast of 30 miles and falls a compass course of 295° to the northwest point on the slope which is at 25 so 30 miles west northwest of Denisutara at an undetermined altitude. Current estimates the speed of this object to be 14 the vicinity of 1000 miles per hour. This speed was calculated by comparing the speed of the object on the DCA source with the operator as facilitated with on the electronic simulator. A/20 Videmore added that some idea of the speed of the object could be converted from the fact that each phase the DCA antenna completed a revolution one Ellipse thus does not serve to 3 miles on the major arcena. The DCA antenna completes a revolution once every two decades. The weather was reported as clear with unlimited reliability.

## Lite Note and Line.

On 30 August 1956 the following information was received from Lat Le Roy-Law V. Hats and Lat Lt Andrew C. Bone observing their early intercept for subject unidentified flying objects. The Hats and Bone pilots assigned to the 52nd Fighter Interceptor Squadron, Benthamers, England. The above named officers indicated that they were returning to Benthamers from a full flight about 2132E, 10 August 1956. At this time they were informed to the north-east of Benthamers to search for unidentified flying objects which were being traced by the Benthamers GU2. Lt. Hats and Bone stated that they encountered the area to the north-east, east, and south-east of Benthamers for approximately 85 minutes, although of flight was between 2000 and 2004.
