A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
There were plenty of cars behind me that I know had to see the exact sighting!! We confirmed via telephone the time of the sighting. The party we spoke with via telephone seemed to us to be quite sober minded and sincere. PD

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.

Elgin, OK
Ok, I saw something yesterday morning on July 30th at approximately 5:12 A.M. that I can't explain. I'm a veteran of the U.S. Army and I believe I saw a UFO. I'm 100% convinced. This happened at 5:12AM about 5 miles northeast of Elgin, Oklahoma which happens to be near Ft. Sill and nearby BAE Systems which contracts through the D.O.D. So there I was driving to work and off to my right was a house and some trees. All of a sudden a bright light appeared over this house and began flickering randomly as if someone bottled up a lightning storm. I can't explain it. At first I thought it was from lightning because there was a lightning storm on the northern border of Oklahoma well over 150 miles away. Anyways the light then turned solid and it immediately moved over by a large tree, circled around the tree. Then it moved up into the air about 20 feet and then move away from the tree about another 20 feet and came to a complete stop. Then it immediately shot straight up into the air. It was small, about the size of a Chevrolet Spark to give an idea of the size. It was circular like the shape of a pill and it was metallic. Feel free to contact me for any questions about my encounter.

Elgin, OK
I was outside and saw the clouds flash like lightning. A cigar, all white light, started to proceed upwards at a 45* angle at a medium speed. It just disappeared midway in the sky. I am 39 years old, mother of 3.
