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.

The location that we were fishing at did have a sightseeing telescope, but all I could see when i looked through it was a bright orange circle. All of the lights stopped around 23:58 and did not return.

I was walking my dog in the dark about 8:30 pm, on a moonless night out by our association's docks and was on the grass in a dark area by the bulkhead. I happend to look up and saw 6 very large flat moon-looking lights. Four of the lighted panels were perfectly alighned next to each other and the other two panels were at an angle to my right and slightly above the others. Transfixed, I continued to observe. Suddenly the two angled lights faded and flew off toward the beach soundlessly and extremely fast. I should note here that as they flew away, they turned slightly and I noted that the two panels were connected by long boxy arms to a rectangular shaped ?. As that was happening, the lights in the middle faded out and I could no longer make out any objects. The third set of two panels, faded out as they turned and went over Camp Lejeune/Air Station. I will note here that I heard no sounds and the base that normally is flying heliocopters over us and the water was also silent. I (and my very patient dog) waited for some minutes as I felt that the middle lights were still there though unseen. Suddenly the middle vehicles panels came back on and the other sets of lights returned from the left and the right, lined up perfectly with the middle set, all panels lit. Still no sounds heard. Suddenly, they appeared to turn toward the ocean, and were gone in a flash. The word hypersonic came to my mind. As I walked back to my townhouse, I noted the sound of rotors of one helicopter over on the base. No other sounds.
