Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
Sightings from the Project Blue Book era (through 1969) live in Record Group 341 at the National Archives. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

Every 12-15 seconds there was another ufo that appeared in the sky around the same area. Some in a straight line, some in a more curved projectory. We watched them all appear and disappear in the same areas. My wife started recording, but the recording was missing 10 min later, after we went in to collect ourselves.
