COMMENTS:
|
This sighting was never entered into the ship's log. The ship (USS
Shadwell) was not put into alert status. The object came abreast of the stern
twice, dropping back to former position. The ship's radar did not scan the
object. Witnesses were told they had seen an atmospheric anomaly, and to
not talk about it. The UFO tracked the ship keeping off port stern. Sea was
calm, visibility clear. The ship's photographer's photos were confiscated.
