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 turned out onto the highway towards town. It began following us with green and white lights alternating with some blue and red. It very quickly approached the car as we sped down the highway and kept pace with us much closer to the ground. It paced us for a while and then quickly shot away from the car at breakneck speed in a near straight light back into the direction we first saw it. X Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

The objects were orange red circular shape with a single flashing light toward the front of the craft. The trajectory was about 3/4 miles to the east and direction of travel was due north at an altitude of approximately 1,500 feet. A relative was to come for a visit, so the camera was being watched in order to open the gate when they arrived, the lights were first noticed on the monitor. My wife's cousin and her husband saw these objects about one mile away as they approached our road, they were traveling west on hwy 16. They all stood outside and watched the last three as they passed to the north. The last pair of objects stopped forward motion for a short period of time. I was not at home and did not see this firsthand, however a DVD copy was made from the video recorder, I counted a total of 21 objects, single, two at a time and in on group there were three in close proximity to each other. They were observed from 19:09 to 19:25, speed was relatively slow and at a constant rate, no sound was emitted, they were silent.
