April 16, 1966: Portage County, Ohio 5:30 a.m. Dale Spaur and Wilbur Neff, among others, sighted a low flying UFO that was bright enough to light the road under. They chased it for about thirty minutes, until it disappeared by climbing in the brightening sky. Air Force conclusion: Satellite and Venus.
April 30, 1966: Sacramento, California. 3:15 a.m. Anita Miller watched as one light moved around the sky for 2 1/2 hours.

Aug 21, 1968: Ottsville, Pennsylvania. Photographs of an object were taken as it flew in an irregular and jerky path. Air Force conclusion: Insufficient data for evaluation because the proper Air Force forms had not been filed.
Sept 15, 1968: Ocala, Florida 9:30 p.m. A light was observed doing aerobatics for 15 minutes. Light rose quickly and disappeared among the stars. Almost immediately a second, white light was seen under the haze above Ocala. The pilots of a light plane reported that the light came at them rapidly on a collision course and pilots thought it was a sidewinder missile fired at them.
Oct 24, 1968: Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota Thirty minutes after midnight — 4:30 a.m. A number of Air Force personnel including the crew of a B-52 saw a light that was tracked by both ground based radar and the B-52's on-board radars. Air Force conclusion: Ground visual sighting was probably an aircraft (the B-52) and probably a star, the radar sighting was possibly a plasma, and the air-visual sighting was possibly a plasma.
Nov 23, 1968: Newton, Georgia. Witness encountered brilliant light directly above road as he rounded a bend in road in sparsely settled territory.
