power complex during the reported alptmg of an unidentifted flying object near the reactor.

A dozen security officers at the Indian Point 3 nuclear plant spotted a large UFO on July 24, 1984, according Philip Imbrogno, an astronomer with the Center for UFO Studies.

Imbrogno, of Greenwich, Conn., an investigator for the Evanston, Ill. centert said this week, "It was quite an incident and they were quite upset."

He said he interviewed six guards who contacted him about the sighting. They said the UFO was 900 feet long and hovered over the plant for 15 minutes, according to Imbrogno. There was a similar incident on June 14, he said.

Carl Patrick, a spokeman for NYPA, operator of Unit 3, confirmed the sightings but said, "It's a six month-old story."

Larry Rossbach, a resident inspector with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, recalled Friday that guards were discussing the incident when he reported to work the following day.

Said Rossbach, "I didn't see it (but) I remember some guys said they saw it. I accept them as reasonable people."

One security officer, who requested anonymity, said the object was 100 feet long, looked like helicopters in V-formation. made some noise and hovered 300 yards above the plant. He said guards "broke out the shotguns."

UFO Photographed – Strange Circles and Metal Littered in Field

Cropped Photo of Flying Saucer from the article, Are Flying Saucers Real provided by www.theufochronicles.com, originally published in the Tangi Talk on  10-24-1973

"And in case you are wondering why we single out the Chersmie farm near Tangipahoa as the center of UFO activity, that is the place where photographs of UFOs have been taken. Where strange bits of metal have been found in the pastures and where strange circles have been found in the grass which some people claim are spots where UFOs have landed."



[...]

To make the mystery even more confusing is the presence of the National Guard and a mobile radar tracking station.

Now it is quite possible there is a rational explanation for the presence of this unit. But it does seem strange that one appeared near the Cheramie farm in “Tangipahoa last weekend. I saw the trucks myself and they were there. It is a curious coincidence that they appeared near the Cheramie farm at the height of the UFO activity. I am sure they could have been there for a hundred other reasons. But it is curious just the same.

And in case you are wondering why we single out the Chersmie farm near Tangipahoa as the center of UFO activity, that is the place where photographs of UFOs have been taken. Where strange bits of metal have been found in the pastures and where strange circles have been found in the grass which some people claim are spots where UFOs have landed.

In fact the area around Tangipahoa has been known as a UFO hot spot for nearly a hundred years. I have heard old-timers tell me how they used to see strange lights in the sky when they were driving their wagons back from Greenburg.

But several years ago Mrs. Robert Cheramie startled the area when she said that she found strange rings in her pasture where she thought UFOs might have landed. They had seen strange sights in the sky for sometime and the rings on the earth really startled them.

I personally went and examined them and I must admit they were curious. We found six of them. All six wereexactly 12’ 6” round and there was a section on part of them that looked like a bite had been taken out of one-like a bite taken out of a round cookie. The grass was mashed down in this area and Mrs. Cheramie said that she thought this was where some kind of a ladder swung down to the ground. In the center was a small mound of distrubed earth and lines reached from the center to the outside rim

The outlines were traced out on the grass with a black powdery substance that stuck to the grass. it was as if the grass were coated with black flour that bad crusted to the stem and leaves of grass.

All six circles were identical. All six had a “bite"taken out ofthe outer rim and you could even see where two of them overlapped like the rings left by a wet glass on a dry counter

The black substance was identified by agricultural authorities as being a form of leaf mold and undoubtedly it was, but it was curious that it apperared in such exact shapes.

I mean you would think leaf mold would appear in irregular patches with some big and some little. What makes the appearance of the black substance peculiar is not the substance itself, but the fact that the shape is so regular–as if someone cut them out with a cookie cutter.

And then there is the photograph taken of an alleged Flying Saucer at the same farm. The picture was taken by a Kentwood business man who had been hunting in the fields at Cheramie's. He had killed a limit of doves and his little boy wanted to see where he had been hunting. He drove his son and wife out there and they saw a round flying object hovering in the air. He quickly grabbed a Polaroid camera that he had in the car and snapped a series of pictures, one of which is reproduced here.

[...]

And there is the mysterious metal which appeared all over the Cheramie fields–these are the same fields in which the circles appeared.

According to Mrs. Cheramie, the field was covered with a metal that looked like aluminum straw. She brought me a little bag of it and we have tried to take a picture of it. We tested it by seeing if it would fog a film and it does not appear to be radioactive. [We do things like that when people bring us debris they thing is from a Flying Saucer. Frankly, we don't know what the stuff is, but we don't want to take a chance on lighting up like a neon bulb.]

And so there you have it. A summary of the latest in local Flying Saucer activity.

Three Types of UFO – Foo Fighters Reported During The War

Headline of article, entitled Balls of Fire - Nazi 'Foo Fighters' for Company published by The Indianapolis Star on 1-2-1945


"There are three kinds of 'Foo Fighters," said Liet. Donald Meirs of Chicago. "One is red balls of fire which appear off our wing tips and fly along with us, the second is a vertical row of three balls of fire which fly in front of us and the third is a group of about 15 lights which appear off in the distance–like a Christmas tree up in the air–and flicker on and off."

     A United States Night Fighter Base, France, Jan. 1.–AP–The Nazis have thrown something new into the night skies over Germany–the weird, mysterious "Foo-Fighter," balls of fire which race alongside the wings of American Beaufighters flying intruder missions over the Reich.

United States pilots have been encountering the eerie "Foo Fighter" for more than a month in their night flights. No one apparently knows exactly what the sky weapon is.

The balls of fire appear suddenly and accompany planes for miles. They appear to be radio-controlled from the ground and manage to keep up with planes flying 300 miles per hour, official reports reveal.

"There are three kinds of 'Foo Fighters," said Liet. Donald Meirs of Chicago. "One is red balls of fire which appear off our wing tips and fly along with us, the second is a vertical row of three balls of fire which fly in front of us and the third is a group of about 15 lights which appear off in the distance–like a Christmas tree up in the air–and flicker on and off."

The pilots of this night fighter squadron – in operation since September, 1943–and three fiery balls the weirdest thing they have as yet encountered. They are convinced that the "Foo Fighter" is designed to be a psychological weapon as well as military although it is not the nature of the fire balls to attack planes.

"A 'Foo Fighter' picked me up recently at 700 feet and chased me 20 miles down the Rhine valley," Meiers said. "I turned to starboard and two balls of fire turned with me. I turned to the port and they turned with me. We were going 260 miles per hour and the balls were keeping right up with us."

"On another occasion when a 'Foo-Fighter' picked us up, I dove at 360 miles an hour. It kept right off our wing tips for awhile and then zoomed up into the sky."

"When I first saw the things off my wing tips I had the horrible thought that a German on the ground was ready to press a button and explode them. But they don't explode or attack us. They just seem to follow us like will-o-the-wisps."

(An Associated Press report from Paris Dec. 13 said the Germans had thrown silvery balls into the air against day raiders. Pilots then reported they had seen these objects both individually and in clusters, during forays over the Reich).

Among pilots at this base who have encountered "Foo Fighters" is Lieut. Henry Bockstige of evensville, Ind.

U.S. Has 'Flying Saucers' and Pilot, Says Colorado Man

A UFO Chronicle entitled, “Colorado Man Alleges U.S. Has “Flying Saucers” and “Pilot” From One of Them” was published by The Pueblo Star-Journal back in 1952. This was the proclamation from one, Joseph Rohrer to Chamber of Commerce members in a meeting at the Vial Hotel.

"The United States government not only has a number of flying saucers from outer space in its possession but it also has a living "pilot" taken from a crashed saucer in Montana two years ago ..."

     The United States government not only has a number of flying saucers from outer space in its possession but it also has a living "pilot" taken from a crashed saucer in Montana two years ago, Joseph Rohrer told Pueblo Chamber of Commerce
members at the organization's weekly membership meeting today noon in the Vial hotel. Speaking on the "Mystery of Flying Saucers," Rohrer also stated that there is some fact and some fiction involved in flying saucer reports.

[...]

The president of the Pikes Peak Broadcasting Co., alleged that he was inside one of seven flying saucers at a California federal base in 1942. The saucers are giant flywheels covered with metal skins, he stated. They are powered by electrostatic turbines and have cabins in the center. The cabins are pressurized and have an atmosphere containing 30 percent oxygen and 70 percent helium, instead of part nitrogen.

Thru the use of the flywheel, a magnetic field is created which permits the saucers to travel at tremendous speeds, said Rohrer, who became interested in flying saucers as the result of a thesis he wrote on electronic tubes used to measure electronic tubes during his college training in electrical engineering.

“If a magnetic field is opened around the earth it should be possible to travel at about the speed of light,” he stated. “They have never tried to fly the saucers that have been captured. They are put together in five sections and come apart easily after the center section is removed.”

I have been in one which is 100 feet in diameter and 18 feet thick, Rohrer stated. “The sleeping quarters for crew members are tubes with caps on the ends and the cabin was pressurized and air conditioned.”

Report of UFO Landing Investigated By Civil Defense – 1957

Report of UFO Landing Investigated By Civil Defense


     "If there was a space ship here, it will be in this area again," Lake County Civil Defense Director Kenneth E. Locke solemnly prophesied Thursday.

By The Albuquerque Journal
11-8-1957
Although reluctant to commit himself on the subject of a space ship of flying saucer, Mr. Locke declared, "There was something there."

He was reporting to an expanse of field at the corner of Rt. 86 and Hart Rd., where a Huntsburg man reported seeing a mysterious craft land Wednesday night.

Armed with Geiger counters, Mr. Locke said a state CD official apparently detected some radioactivity in the field. They also found fresh marks in the earth....

above the runway. Dozens of people at Godman saw it. None of them could believe their eyes. At least, not until the "thing" attacked a U.S. fighter during one of the most incredible and tragic "unidentified flying object" dramas of all time.
