Quote from the UFO report:
“This is currently a 5-page chronology of UFO incidents and events for
1985. Our thanks for these chronologies must go to Richard Hall (the original
1985 chronology from UFOE II), Dan Wilson (archive researcher), and Jean
Waskiewicz (online NICAP DBase [NSID]. You will note the many foreign reports
that we are now being able to access. Our special thanks to Dan Wilson for
getting those to us. As more come in, this page will be updated. Previous
chronologies (1947 to 1969) involved the expertise of two other team members:
William Wise (Project Blue Book Archive) and Brad Sparks (Comprehensive Catalog
of Project Blue Book Unknowns). Bob Gribble‘s entries are those filed with the
National UFO Reporting Center in Seattle, Washington, now operated by Peter
Davenport.

PC Richard Milthorp was one of at least 20 uniformed officers who
observed a dome shaped circular UFO that appeared to ‘fire’ balls of light to
the ground for two hours. He submitted a report with one other officer that was
sent to the Ministry of Defence and the Civil Aviation Authority. The
Superintendent for Harrow Police station at the time said that the report by
MILTHORP and PC PAUL ISLES was made by ‘two normal sensible men.’ UFO
