The whole UFO case report:
“Richard Hall:
September 3, 1965; Exeter, New Hampshire
(BBU 9890)
1:30 A.M. While hitchhiking home in the early hours,
teenager Norman Muscarello was terrorized by a large object with four or five
bright red lights that approached from nearby woods and hovered over a field
near the road. Horses spooked. He went to the Exeter police station, pale and shaken, and
reported the incident. Officer Eugene Bertrand drove him back to the field to
investigate. About an hour earlier Bertrand had come across a woman parked on
Route 101. ‘She was real upset,’ he said, ‘and told me that a red glowing
object had chased her.’ When he was called to investigate Muscarello’s report,
the earlier incident caused him to pay attention. At first Bertrand and
Muscarello saw nothing, but when Bertrand flashed a light around the field, a
huge dark object with red flashing lights rose up over the trees, moving back
and forth, tilted, and came toward them.
Brad Sparks:
September 3, 1965; Exeter, New Hampshire
(BBU 9890)
1-3 a.m.
(EDT). Exeter Patrolmen Eugene Bertrand, Jr. and David Hunt, and Norman
Muscarello saw a large, silent, dark, elliptical object with a row of 5 bright
red lights oriented about 60° to horizontal, move slowly and erratically around
houses and trees at 100 ft
height to SE [or 60-70 ft
height 100 ft
away], lighting up the ground and houses in red light, while lights blinked in
sequence; falling leaf motion. Farm animals very noisy. Disappeared at 160°
magnetic after covering about 135° arc [from NNE?]. (Berliner; cf. Hynek UFO
Rpt pp. 154-166; UFOE II, Section V)
The A-Team:
All one needs to do is to read the actual interviews
of Bertrand, Hunt, and Muscarello to dump this newest ‘explanation’ (*) into
the garbage where it belongs. The ‘new’ theory is laughingly preposterous.
Reported facts: 1). The brightness of the lights. So bright that the whole
house was bathed in red; so bright that the shape of the object was obscured,
but Bertrand could see that there WAS some sort of object uniting them; so
bright that they feared that they would be BURNED by them and so ran from them.
2). All the main observers say that the lights were at ANGLES at various times
during the flight, and wobbled during the flight as well . 3). Object/Light-line
changed from ‘Quarter-at-arm's-length’ to ‘Grapefruit-at-arm's-length’ during
the few minute sighting. The light-line also flew flat, then dipped at
reasonably sharp angle, then rose at an angle again as it proceeded across the
sky. And, when Betrand first became involved, they could not see any object,
went down into the field, i.e. closer to the treeline than the road, and the
object STILL rose up ‘suddenly’ over those trees. 4). Bertrand saw the object
go from quarter to grapefruit apparent size as said. In doing so he had a bit
of data which might give him SOME idea as to how distant it was. He said that
it ‘maneuvered’ around a tree circa 100 feet away.
[The investigating officer at Pease wrote in his report that Pease had 5
B-47s in the air ‘but do not believe they had any connection with this
sighting.’] Finally, the animals weren’t just noisy. (Ridge, Waskiewicz, Wilson, Swiatek, Davenport,
Fowler, Ledger, Swords, Maccabee, Rodeghier)
Bertrand:
‘Yeh, you could hear them neighing and kicking in their
stalls. Even the dogs around here started howling. When Dave arrived, the three
of us just stood there and watched it. It floated, wobbled, and did things that
no plane could do. Then it just darted away over those trees toward Hampton.’ ”
