Summary

On August 1, 1956, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, a report was investigated by the Air Force. The record card indicates a sighting was reported and documented. However, the scanned page quality is too degraded to read the specific details about what was observed, the witnesses involved, the object description, or the duration of the sighting. The brief summary section and comments are largely illegible. The Air Force evaluation checkbox marked on the form cannot be determined with certainty due to image quality.
