UFO News Article:
“Spot UFO’s Near Alton Two Nights”

The whole article:
“Sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFO’s) were reported in the Alton-Turbeville area on separate occasions Friday and Sunday evenings.

Mrs. Annie Long of Alton said a huge object larger than a 6-room house flew over her house from behind trees, emitted violet to red lights in revolving fashion, and then shot straight upwards ‘like lightning.’ She said she was frightened as she watched the UFO for about 10 minutes around 10 p.m. Friday night.

A Danville couple, Mr. and Mrs. F. W. McDowell were returning home Sunday about 7 p.m. from Alton, and shortly after turning into Route 58 sighted an object that McDowell said was going east to west, and that they watched it for about 10 minutes. It had a red glow and was on a fairly fast course. They were sure it was not an airplane.

Stopping at Shifflet’s store about five miles west of Turbeville, they stopped at the Landrum home off the highway, still sighting the first object when a second one came into view, giving off red and white lights and going on a zig-zag course. They reported it to the Landrums, and the Landrum couple, two daughters and Donna Shifflet, saw both objects.

Judy Landrum, 17-year-old Halifax County High senior, took up the narrative from there.

‘It was zig-zagging, funny-like. It was red, then white, and I didn’t hear it make any sounds.’

Like Mrs. Long, was she frightened? ‘No,’ replied Judy, ‘I wanted to see it land to see what it looked like.’ ”

U.S. Government UFO Document (FOIA):
“SUBJECT: Military; Scientific/
DATE DIST.: 23 Aug 1952”


(Central Intelligence Agency, Washington, D.C.)

The document deals with the Greek newspaper (I Kathimerini, Athens, Greece) article titled “ ‘FLYING SAUCERS’ IN EAST GERMANY.” The article reports on Oscar Linke’s 9 July 1952 UFO observation in Hasselbach, East Germany:


Linke, who observed the alleged UFO incident together with his 11-year-old daughter, Gabriella, claimed he saw two men who were looking at something lying on the ground. One of the men had a lamp on the front part of the body which lit up at regular intervals, he said. The men entered the craft when they became aware that they were being observed. Soon after the UFO rose slowly into the air and flew away in the direction of Stockheim.

Quote from the document:
“Furnished with the sworn testimony of an eyewitness, Oscar Linke, a 48-year-old German and former mayor of Gleimershausen, West Berlin intelligence officers have begun investigating a most unusual ‘flying saucer’ story. According to this story, an object ‘resembling a huge flying pan’ and having a diameter of about 15 meters landed in a forest clearing in the Soviet Zone of Germany.

Many other persons who live in the same area as Linke later related that they saw an object which they thought to be a comet. A shepherd stated that he thought he was looking at a comet moving away at a low altitude from the height on which Linke stood.”

UFOINFO.com UFO case report:
“January 5, 1955 – A red circular object three meters in diameter was observed to land and take off again in San Sebastian, Spain. Three independent witnesses saw the object come to ground. They described it as a very bright red globe 2.5 meters in diameter, which they thought was made of a metallic material. When one witness approached to within 100 meters, the object took off. The principal witness was a 23-year-old man named Galarraga.
