Light over Holdingford, MN
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
UFO started flying from the northwest directly south. Around this time Camp Ripley is doing its nightly rounds. It was evident the Camp Ripley plane spotted the UFO and started chasing it. I watched until I was no longer able to see either objects. After the UFO was out of sight another object started to blink spontaneously to the left of where I was standing; it only lit up a portion of the sky and appeared to move erratically. The object was pure white light and was so bright it shut off our solar garden lights and flag light. I was able to get one look at the object that let out this massive amount of light and it was tiny like a seed or star size and not in our atmosphere.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #167465). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.

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.

First craft was traveling south east and made a hook maneuver and parked what looked like along side the moon. It was followed by a camp ripley plane. Shortly after another ufo flew north to south. What appeared to be a completely different UFO came from directly above the moon to in front of or behind the moon. While other ufos flew in various scattered directions from east to west. South to north etc. at this point multiple military planes (at least 5) were coming from the east and heading west.

Outside through a small line of trees I could see a orange glow. I noticed the orange glow was moving quite rapidly and at an irregular pattern. I then heard a sound of an airplane when I looked up further as I was standing under our patio it was a jet that flew near the orange round glowing object. Next to the jet appeared to be another glowing object not as bright and also appeared to have more control over its flying behavior. I continued to watch the larger object as it was moving east to west and moving towards the front of my house with unobstructed views. The glowing object appeared to be moving towards the ground and getting very close to me. I ran in the house to grab binoculars to see if I could make out any actual features of the object. I was in the house maybe ten seconds and when I returned the object was gone. When I looked east a meteor flew.
