Project Blue Book Case File

Dayton, OhioSeptember 1961

Unidentified

Summary

The OCR text provided consists almost entirely of blank survey forms and form templates from Project Blue Book's standard witness questionnaire. While the cover sheet (page 1) indicates that a sighting occurred in Dayton, Ohio in September 1961 and was classified as "unidentified" by the Air Force, the actual witness responses and investigative details have not been captured in this OCR'd file.

The 10 pages contain the Air Force's standard UFO report form and instructions, but the spaces where a witness would have written answers to questions about what they saw, when they saw it, how the object moved, and other crucial details appear to be blank or are not legible in the OCR output. Without this completed witness testimony and any follow-up investigation notes, a meaningful summary of what was actually observed cannot be written.

The full case file is reproduced below as held by the National Archives across 10 pages of microfilm T1206, Roll 44.
