The whole UFO case report:
“Synopsis: From between approximately 2120 hrs. and 2130 hrs. (Pacific
Daylight Time), one or more objects, variously described as a blue-green
sphere, an oval of blue-green light, or a disc with six lights on it, was
reported from multiple points throughout western Washington State. The object
was reported to change direction of flight on at least three occasions, to
execute a rolling maneuver on at least one occasion, to come to an almost
complete stop in two locations, to reverse its general course of travel from
south to north, and to change its appearance, including its color, on at least
two occasions. One reliable observer witnessed the object to pass slowly over
the center of Bangor Submarine Base on Hood
Canal, approximately 20-30 miles to the west of Seattle, passing directly
over the underground bunkers where nuclear weapons are thought to be stored. In
excess of a dozen seemingly independent and reliable reports regarding the
alleged sightings were received by the National UFO
Reporting Center
between April 22 and May 11.
Summary of Witness Reports:
1. Snohomish County, WA: A 16-yr. old male and his mother, located
approximately 15-20 miles
north of Seattle, witnessed a blue-green object suddenly descend from the sky,
hover, and then accelerate to the south-southwest and disappear in that
direction at approximately 2120 hrs. (PDT).
2. Poulsbo, WA: Larry Swanson, a former federal employee
and computer specialist, who resides approximately ¼ mile from the northeast
corner of the Bangor Submarine Base, allegedly witnessed a brightly lighted,
disc-shaped object glide silently over the center of that military facility at
approximately 2122 hrs. The object tilted somewhat, so the witness was able to
see the ventral side of the object quite clearly, he reports. A computer-generated
graphic, provided by the witness, is shown above.
3. Auburn, WA: A man out walking his dog witnessed a
perfectly circular, blue-green ball of light descend from north to south in the
western sky at 2120 hrs. at a very high velocity.
4. Puyallup, WA: A man driving to work witnessed a
striking blue-green ball of light descending at a 30-35 degree angle from north
to south in the western sky at a very high velocity.
5. Shelton, WA: A young father witnessed a blue-green
ball of light streak across the sky to the west of his location.
6. Oakville, WA: A mother and her two sons, driving west on State Route
12, located to the west of Interstate 5, witnessed a ‘disc shaped’ object,
imbedded in a cloud of blue-green light, streak from north to south in the
western sky. The object appeared to ‘follow the contour’ of the horizon,
dipping down suddenly, and then rising up again during its rapid flight to the
south. The object was reported to generate a peculiar ‘tail,’ which streamed
off the aft end of the object for a fleeting instant. All three witnesses
believed they observed three lights on the top of the disc, and three lights on
its ventral side, as well.
7. Steilacoom, WA: A woman witnessed a blue-green ball of
light streak from north to south in the western sky at 2123 hrs..
8. Vancouver, WA: A husband and wife witnessed a
blue-green ball of light move slowly from north to south in the western sky.
Very peculiar appearance to the object, they reported, with a peculiar looking
“mist” surrounding the object.
9. Portland, OR:
A young musician witnessed a blue-green ball of light move from west to east in
the northern sky from his vantage point in the city of Portland, OR.
10. Vancouver, WA: A male Ph.D. in computer science,
driving north on Interstate 5 witnessed a blue-green ball of light, that seemed
to him to descend vertically ahead of his automobile and hover momentarily
above the highway. The witness added that he had experienced some very unusual
emotional reactions to the event.
11. Yakima, WA: A law enforcement officer witnessed a
blue-green ball of light moving at a very high velocity from south to north for
approximately 2 seconds. During his sighting, the object suddenly changed its
color from green to red. The sighting occurred at 2130 hrs., the witness
thought.

The whole Wikipedia article:
“Naval Submarine Base Bangor is a former submarine base of the
United States Navy that was merged with Naval Station Bremerton into Naval Base
Kitsap in 2004.[1]
History
The Naval Support Base Bangor's naval history began in 1942 when it
became a site for shipping ammunition to the Pacific Theater of Operations
during World War II. For an expansion and to establish a permanent naval base,
the U.S. Navy purchased 7,676
acres (3100 hectares) of land on the Hood Canal
near the town of Bangor
for approximately $18.7 million. The U.S. Naval ammunition magazine was
established on June 5, 1944, for its construction, and it began operations in
January 1945.
Beginning in World War II, and through the Korean War and the Vietnam
War, until January 1973, the Bangor Annex continued its service as a U.S. Navy
Ammunition Depot responsible for shipping conventional weapons abroad.
In 1973, the Navy announced the selection of the Bangor base as the home port for the first
squadron of Ohio-class Trident Fleet Ballistic Missile submarines. On February
1, 1977, the Trident Submarine Base was officially activated. Naval Base Kitsap
includes the Strategic Weapons Facility Pacific (SWFPAC) which provides
maintenance, calibration, missile assembly/test, spare parts, and spare nuclear
warhead storage for the Trident II ballistic missiles that are carried by the
nuclear submarines.
This Trident submarine base is the sole one for the U.S. Pacific Fleet,
with the Trident submarine base at Kings
Bay, Georgia,
for the U.S. Atlantic Fleet being the only other one.”
