The whole UFO case report:
“Dan Wilson:
Jan. 27, 1965; Plum Tree Island (Hampton), Virginia
(BB)
6:00 p.m. EST. A NASA research engineer, A. G.
Crimmins (located at Hampton) observed an object that was approximately 75 feet across and 10 to 15 feet in height. The
object had 3 to 7 lights colored red and orange. The object appeared to rotate.
The object first appeared at an azimuth of 20 degrees and a maximum of 75 feet of elevation. The
object moved approximately 1/4 mile west of the original position on a zigzag
course and then appeared to land on the shore. It remained fixed for
approximately five minutes. The object then took off to the north and then
turned right to depart to the east at a high rate of speed. The object was viewed
through 20-power binoculars. There were apparently other reports of similar
sightings in the same area at approximately the same time. (UFOE II, Section
IV).

While in the process of documenting the Jan. 23, 1965
E-M case at Lightfoot, Virginia (N. of Williamsburg) I found that among the
witnesses in this mini-flap there were two NASA research engineers, A. G.
Crimmins and Maj. John Nayadley, a retired AF jet pilot. ‘I watched it through binoculars,’
Crimmins stated. ‘It was zigzagging as if searching for a landing spot. I could
see flashing lights on the edge or rim of a rapidly rotating disc.’ The UFO
made a touch landing, then climbed steeply out of sight. Without any checkup,
AF Headquarters hurriedly explained it as a helicopter the NASA engineers
failed to recognize in their excitement. Too late. HQ learned that Langley AFB
had ruled this out – no helicopters were flying in the area. (NICAP files)”
