Summary
A USAF Director of Intelligence file of correspondence, reporting forms and case material on 'flying disc' reports from late 1952. It includes the Navy transmittal of 16mm color film taken 'about 7 miles north of Tremonton, Utah' at 1110 on 2 July 1952 with a handheld camera and 3-inch telephoto lens. A message records a 10 September 1952 interview with CPO Delbert C. Newhouse and his family, who said they heard no sound and saw no exhaust trails, and one object 'reversed its course.'
