89. July 17, 1948. 5 miles S of San Acacia Dam, New

Mexico. 4:50 p.m. 2 Kirtland AFB Sgts. on a fishing

trip with their families saw a group of 7 aluminum

circular possibly spherical objects approach from the

S at 20,000 ft pass overhead at 1,500 mph if the

altitude was correct (5°/sec angular velocity), at first

appearing like snub-nosed jet fighters of unknown

type, shifting from V formation to L formation to

circular formation to no regular formation, at which

point a regular pulsating flashing light appeared in

the group at 30° from zenith to the N, and at this

oblique angle the objects did not appear circular. No

noise or trail. (FOIA)
