Light over Forestburgh, NY
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
As the lights were flashing I witnessed 3-4 military like aircraft one after another each a two minute space between. Est time was between 8pm and 10 pm when the lights were flashing. First thought it was heat lightning but the lights were back to back. There was no clouds in the sky.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #121680). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
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.

We saw flashing light in a generalized area we could not identify the source. 1 by one about a half hour into the light show jets flew over low and slow going towards the flashing in a grid pattern at 15 minute intervals. The flashing slowed as the jets appeared.
