Quote from NICAP.org’s “The 1952 Sighting Wave” report
(nicap.org):
“July 21, 1952; Rockville,
Indiana (BBU 1533)
8:10 p.m. Three men of the 782 ACW Squadron, observed
an aluminum, triangular-shaped object the approximate size of a C-47 aircraft.
The object had one triangular fin or rudder. The object flew at an altitude
of 500 to 1000 feet at
approximately 0-60 MPH
on a straight level course, but stopped and hovered in on spot 1/2 mile from
the NW corner of their radar station for 1/2 minute before disappearing in the
haze to the N. Time observed approximately 3 minutes. (Berliner, Sparks) [UFO
probably too slow to be picked up by their radar if running MTI (moving target
indication) equipment.]”
