STATE OF CALIFORNIA ) COUNTY OF KERN ) The following is a statement given by S/Sgt. Gerald *. Nauman, 4144th AAFBU, Muroc Army Air Field, Muroc, California, statement given on 14 July 1947, to lst Lt. J. ©. McHenry, Billeting Officer. On the eight of July 1947 at ten o'clock (10:00) in the morning I observed personally two (2) flying disc, flying in a north west direction at an estimated altitude of seven or eight thousand feet, traveling at approximately three or four hundred miles per hour. Just a few minutes before this I was in the Silleting Office and First Lieutenant Joseph ©. Mellenry, called me and two (2) others out- side. He then asked us what we saw. I saw two (2) objects with my own eyes, and I am now snd was then in perfect physical conditione I have 20-20 vision and I am positive these two (2) objects could not have been Aircraft, weather balloons or birds. Due to the altitude in which they were flying, they gave off a definite reflection from the rays of the sun. In eddition to these two (2) dise I saw another object a few minutes later at the same altitude doing certain maneuvers such as flying in a tight circle. The two disc had already disappeared. This object to my knowledge of aircraft could not have been an airplane because of the very tight maneuver it was undergoinc. I have been flying in and heve been around all types of aircraft since 1943 and never in my life have I seen anything such as this. If necessary I can and will swear to this statement. , This statement has been given freely and volunterily without any threats or promises under duress. This statement consists of one (1) page, and is the truth to the best of my knowledce and belief. I heve initialed all corrections deemed necessary. s/s te. Ce robinson PFC T. C.
