20 Flying Discs Over Ada, OK in 1956?


The Flying Saucer's Review's WORLD ROUNDUP of UFO Sightings and Events (Citadel Press, 1958) contains a story from Ada, Oklahoma.

In brief, the account was that two boys were outside on the school yard of Washington School for a 10 a.m. morning break. The two, Kent Meyer and his friend, Clayton Campbell, reported seeing 20 discs flying low, in a tight formation. They said they were silver grey, made no sound and exhibited no exhaust trail that was visible to them. The date was May 17, 1956 in Pontotoc County, in southeast Oklahoma.

There was a Washington School in Ada at the time. A search of newspapers offered through the Oklahoma Historical Society's "Oklahoma gateway" resource revealed no Ada newspapers on that platform.

That same year in Project Blue Book were reports filed for Stroud, Frederick, Oklahoma City, Sapulpa, and Altus.

Anyone with information about Kent Meyer, Clayton Campbell, or this event, please leave a comment.
