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.

Front Royal, VA

I was walking my dog at around 21:00 and looked up to the sky. I saw a series of vertical lights stationary in the NE sky. I watched them for about 10 minutes and they did nor move. I went to get my wife to show her. When she came out I saw another set of lights towards the north. I started to scan the sky and saw three more of the same configuration of lights. None of them were moving. They were equally spaced about going from the North to East of where I was standing. I continued to war has them for about 1/2 hour. They did not move. I just looked out and the lights are still there it is 21:46. I will look tomorrow to see if they are still there. When looking at the moon one of the objects was to the right, the others were to the left. We spoke via telephone with the source of the report, and he sounded to us to be a quite sincere, and serious-minded, witness. PD
