A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Me. And. A. Buddy. Where. Chit. Chatting. On my. Back. Patio. In the evening. Nice calm quiet night. I live. In a rural. Farmland. Area. Nothing but fields. All around. We. Started to. Walk out to his. Truck. As he was. Leaving. And as I looked. Back into. Our. Back pastures We saw. A. Absolutely. Huge cigar shaped. Craft. Very shocked at this in the moment of disbelief. We’ve been outside. Now. For 30 minutes. Heard. Nothing. As it. Came. Over. My fields. It. Had. Very bright flood lights5 evenly spaced but the ones on each end. We’re. Far brighter. Than the others. As we watched. It began too. Moved. In a snake like sweeping. Motion. As if it were searching. The. Fields. For. Something. It slowly sweeped out of. Our Field of Vision. I could determine. Approximately how. Height. And. How. Far. By. The. Tree rows. Forming a frame. To where. The object was. I’d. Say. 100ft or less above the ground. And. 300-400 yds away. This. Was. Silent. And. Was. ! Bigger. Than a blimp. As. My buddy. Went. To snap photo. Phone. Shit down. I havnt. Told. Many. Ppl. And. It. Still has. My. Hair. On end. This. Is. Very. Real. And. We. Weee. Both. Sound. Mind. I’ve recently. Asked. The guy who. Was here. And. My friend. Started. Saying. A different story. Entirely. Like. He had. No clue. Of. What. We. Witnessed. I’d. Like to speak. To. Someone. Professional. I. Need. Help. Ever. Since. They. Know. I know. And. Are close. Very close. To me. Please. With. My. Regards. Thanks

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.
