The whole UFO case report:
“Bruce Maccabee:
October 12, 1950; Knoxville , Tennessee
(BBU)
11:25 PM. A military radar unit at Knoxville Airport
suddenly detected 11, ‘and possibly more,’ unidentified targets moving over the
restricted flight zone at Oak Ridge .
This time action was taken. At 11:30, the radar station commander scrambled an
F-82 fighter. It was in the air nine minutes later. The fighter was vectored
toward two targets and, according to the radar, closed with the targets, but
the pilot saw nothing. Ground observations also failed to detect anything in
the sky. No unusual objects were seen visually or on radar for the next two
days. Then the ‘dam broke.’ On October 15, at 3:25 PM, three Oak Ridge security guards and a caretaker saw
an exceedingly strange object. (See Oct 15 below)
