Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. 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.

At 23:00 while working on the local ski area got out of the machine I was running to move a fence when I noticed a red orange light just above the tree line. It was joined by a second light higher and to the left. I watched for a few moments and noted that the lights were moving. I went back to work continueing to watch and within minutes there were six lights. Over the next hour the lights would disappear and reappear make shapes ranging from triangles to crosses to L shapes. At first I thought someone was using a bunch of lasers but looking at where they were in the daylight that wasn't poosible. My other thought was someone was flying drones but even that was ruled out.
