Military intelligence collected flying-disc reports

Department of War, 1950.

This is a 1949 collection of U.S. military intelligence reports on 'Flying Discs' and unidentified objects from several places, including sightings at Hickam, Kodiak, and Godman Air Force bases and a shipboard sighting in the Caribbean, with conventional explanations proposed for several. The value is not one clean case but the pileup of reports from areas where aircraft, ships, and weather already crowded the sky. Even though many entries point to ordinary causes, the Air Force still kept them in a flying-disc folder.
