WAYNE THOMAS, JR. P. O. BOX 831 PLANT CITY, FLORIDA October 3, 1963 Mr. Richard Hall NICAP 1536 Connecticut Avenue N. W. Washington 6, D. C. Dear Mr. Hall: Pardon my delay in answering your letter of August 27 reqesting formation on UFOs seen by B-29 crews during World War II. I was a group intelligence officer stationed on Tinian, and the cases I recall were all night-time sightings. These lights, ranging from green to orange and yellow, would approach and move along with the bombers for several minutes at a time before breaking off. The crews were sure they were not reflections on plexi- glass, or stars, or the moon. I recall of no case where an aircraft or form was distinguished as such, just the lights. These "Foo-fighters" were so common, that they were discussed in the various unit publications around the island. I also remember no discussions about the possibility of space-craft; just strange unidentified lights. It is hoped that this small bit of fragmentary information may be of help. Very truly yours, _ we od Wayne Thomas, Jr. Approved For Release 2001/04/02 : C/A-RDP81R00560R000100010001-0
