“Belleville sightings labeled UFOs”


7 June 1987 (The Milwaukee Journal, Wisconsin)

The Milwaukee Journal reports on two 1987 Belleville (Wisconsin) UFO incidents:


Quote from the article:
“ ‘The Center for UFO Studies has officially classified the Belleville sightings as genuine UFO sightings,’ said Don Schmitt, co-director of the center.

The first sighting was when Police Officer Glenn Kazmar and other Belleville officers saw three flahing lights between 8:30 p.m. Jan. 15 and 3:00 a.m. Jan. 16. Belleville is on the Dane County-Green County line, south of Madison.

Another Belleville sighting was reported March 6, when Harvey Funseth and several other people saw several cigar-shaped objects about 5:30 p.m.

Funseth, a state highway surveyor, said he and Fred Gochnauer were coming home from work when they saw a large cigar-shaped object in the sky with three smaller objects trailing it.”

“UFO Examined Through Binoculars At Flagstaff”


5 August 1965 (Prescott Evening Courier, Arizona)

The article reports on the UFOs which were sighted in the Flagstaff (Arizona) area on the night of 4 August 1965:


Quote from the article:
“Ford (Bob Ford) said the pulsating object changed from red to green and, when viewed through binoculars, had a definite saucer shape. It was seen between 9:30 and 10:30, he said.

At the same time, four men from the Navajo Ordnance Depot reported seeing a saucer-shaped object south of Flagstaff. They said the object was red and green and emitted alternating white and blue flashes.

The four said they too used binoculars and detected a saucer shape.”
