Pulp Magazine Cover, August 1953
This is not a pulp magazine. The OCR text is from a U.S. Air Force military intelligence report dated August 1953 concerning a UFO sighting near Onida, South Dakota. The document, addressed to various Air Force commands including the Director of Intelligence and Air Technical Intelligence at Wright-Patterson AFB, describes a sighting by Major Morris Lewis of Ellsworth AFB. The object displayed characteristics inconsistent with conventional aircraft: it hovered momentarily, changed course and speed rapidly in various directions, and disappeared and reappeared multiple times. Sky conditions were overcast with light drizzle. The object's identity remained unknown. This is an official government document, not commercial fiction.
