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.

I was floating in the resort pool at night, and saw flying in the sky: (1) small craft, looks like a drone, blinking light, not flying very fast, heading toward the gulf. Suddenly, it disappears, then reappears about fifty feet to the side. This is what startled me. I would assume this was drone, but it just "zig-zagged", moving faster than light for a split second before reappearing, slightly skewed from its original trajectory. It did this a couple more times before it was out of sight. About 10 minutes later I see (2) more of the SAME craft, flying next to each other. These DO NOT "zig zag fly" --- they fly in straight line, in a pair, toward the gulf. I start to believe these are just drones again, but then I remember how the other "zig-zagged" and I don't know what to think. I wasn't going to report this, but about 2 weeks later, I am still bothered by it, and I feel compelled to report this for national safety. [NUFORC annotation: Drone - Possible]

I went out to smoke a cigarette just before 9pm. Looked up into the sky to see about 7 white lights traveling in a straight line across the sky from SW to NE out towards the ocean. They were only visible for about 3 seconds before vanishing from sight.
