1. On 14 July 1947, 1st Lt Eric B. Armstrong, 0-2059709, 170th
AAF Base Unit, Ferry Division, Brooks Field, San Antonio, Texas was

an estimated speed of 285 MPH. Lt. Armstrong said the objects were flying
very smoothly and in a close formation, The estimated size of the white
objects were approximately 36 inchesin diameter. Lt, Armstrong stated

closure was very fast. Lt. Armstrong was certain that the white objects
were not jets or conventional type aircraft since he has flown both types,

Lt. Armstrong was very sincere in the explanation and was not the
exaggerating type. He merely stated what he saw and has drawn no con-
clusions as to what the white objects were.
