will lend weight to arguments for allocating Air Force funds to this _

_ Following report on unidentified aircraft sighting comes from 307th Bomb
| Group which participated in operation daggar. Unidentified aircraft was :
| sighted by three crews of the group at 14022 5 Sep 48 off west coast of Holland ,
| ‘the unidentified 4/¢ was cruising at a normal jet speed, heading 120 degrees.
- Soon after first seen, A/C began leaving smoke trails and condensation trails
| - accompanied by sudden acceleration and then climb. Generall agreed by
| observers that it was a single jet propelled A/C employing probably rocket
_ assists with tremendous reserve power, more than normal curising speed for
| jets of the 1947 variety. Never within ddentification range; its course a
/ did not indicate its purpose. : / |

| For some time we have been concerned by the recurring reports on flying
| saucers. They periodically continue to cop up; during the last week, one was
observed hovering over Neubiberg Air Base for about thirty minutes. They
| have been reported by so sources and from such a variety of places that
basis whitch is perhaps slightly beyond the scope of our present intelligence
5 When officers of this Directorate recently visited the Swedish Air
‘Intelligence Service. This question was put to the Swedes. Their answer
| was that some reliable and fully technically qualified people have reached
| the conclusion that "these phenomena are obviously the result of a high ~
| éechnical skill which cannot be credited to any presently known culture on
earth," They-are therefore assuming that these objects originate from some
| previously unknown or unidentified technology, possibly outside the earth.
| L One of these objects was observed by a technical expert near CT
a his home on the edge of a lake. The object crashed or landed in the lake |
| and he caréfully noted its azimuth from his point of observation. Swedish
intelligence was sufficiently confident in his observation that a naval
salvage team was sent to the lake, Operations were underway during the
| Visit of USAF officers. Divers had discovered a previosuly uncharted _
crater on the floor of the lake. — No further information is available ple, but
|. ‘we have been promised kmowledge of the results, In their opinion, the
i _ observation was reliable, and they believe that the depression on the floor
