COMMENTS:	From the witness's narrative: "The sighting occurred 1-2 times a week and it look like they were playing follow the leader. Duration varied from 3-5 min per sighting. Reported to CSC initially, and control tower. I supervised (5) airman in an alert area and we would gather to watch the show. After reporting them a couple of time without any action taken, we kinda lost interest and never reported them again. I do remember going into alert where we actually launch two birds because of UFO's, but the report did not originate from y team. Since we were already observing the objects when the klaxons sounded, we assumed they were responding to same UFO's. Ironically, just as our birds went airborne the three UFO's disappeared at extremely high speeds as usual. It should be noted that at no time did any of us believe it was a man-made object. As far as we were concern, nothing man-made could stop, go and turn as quickly as these objects..stopping or pivoting on a dime is an understatement! In those days, no one wanted to address such issues or at least not public. To say the least, the need to know and unverified information did not weight much. "My experience in the military made me realized, never trust what's in print or verbalized by the powers to be .. there's always the rest of the story!"
