The report, as filed
I was facing north west outside on my front patio it was the middle of the day. It was cold outside and the sky had these clouds moving across the sky I was looking up at the sky when I saw movement in the sky from my left. There was 5 steel like objects that were shaped like hollow helmets flying in a diagonal upside down L shaped formation. I wanted to take a picture but by the time I got a good look and determined pointed my phone to take a picture I couldn't see them anymore .

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.
