Nov.23, 1957 Nevada case that was unique on many, many levels. Dr. J. Allen Hynek profiles it using his own personal and expansive files in his book highlighting the quality of the reserve officer involved in the sighting and contrasting that with the determined effort to label the case (by the AF) as anything other than what it really was - a true unidentified. Indeed, most of the 53 pages of the file are arguments, plans, and means to label the case as either (a) hoax, (b) mis-indentification, (c) road hypnosis or (d) psychological. The drive by consultation by Dr. Paul H. Fitts illustrated the situation. The doctor sites the lack of detail in the witnesses report as symptomatic of road fatigue/hypnosis. Yet when the report narrative of the man is read there is a great deal of detail. In addition, the witness, brought up and refuted in a logical manner all the most likely explanations the investigators could present.
The problem facing the AF was that this case, they felt, was the first time a military pilot claimed to have "made contact or near contact" with a ....whatever it was.
Odd thing is that in this time frame of November 1957 there were a tremendous amount of things being seen that looked like eggs, discs, round objects with dark rings and rows of lights, emitting hums, and interfering with electrical systems.
