## CONFIDENTIAL

Witness strolling in his orchard in an easterly direction when his grandson called his attention to "the funny flying fishes in the sky" Looking up he saw 2 strange looking craft flying very fast in a very straight course from West to East but slightly to the North. The sun was to observer's right and the sky cloudless which seemed to make the objects reflect the sunlight rather brilliantly. As a result the shape was not clearly evident but he distinctly observed that they did not have wings and they looked like cigars - longer than they were wide. They were flying together, one object to the rear about one city block apart and to the right of the leading plane. They did not dip nor veer from a straight flight in any manner. Seemed very high but observer could not judge this except that they were at least a mile high and possibly 5 miles high. There was no noise nor sound of any kind. The trail or exhaust was very unusual and seemed like a slight trace of steam attached to the plane which disappeared immediately. It did not persist in the air like vapor trails nor like exhaust from ordinary planes and jet aircraft. Witness familiar with aircraft since they fly over his property daily. He was positive that they were not meteors, birds nor ordinary aircraft.

NOTE: Subsequent investigation by this Cmd indicates that Mr. Britton's testimony should be considered reliable. The objects seen are not as yet identified.
