Pulp Magazine Cover, April 1953

This document is a U.S. Air Force UFO sighting report form and related intelligence summaries from April 23, 1953. The questionnaire was designed to systematically gather witness testimony about unidentified aerial phenomena.

The specific incident documented occurred at Addison, York County (likely New York), where a witness observed a white object with a blinking quality and glowing top and bottom, marked by a black stripe running vertically. The object was initially stationary, then moved slowly westward. The observation lasted approximately 25 minutes at 12:45 EST. Witnesses reported altitude of 1,500 feet. Weather conditions recorded as normal. Fighters were scrambled at 1:15 EST but found nothing. The questionnaire includes detailed sections asking observers to estimate object size, describe motion patterns, note sky conditions, record sound or color observations, and sketch the object's appearance and trajectory. The witness provided personal contact information for possible follow-up interviews.
