4 Disk Like Objects Flying Overhead

4 Disk Like Objects Flying Overhead

Date: May - 1947

Location: Near Beaufort, SC

Dr. Battey, a physician in Augusta, GA, had been fishing 10 miles off St. Helena Sound, near Beaufort, SC.

At about 11:00 a.m. he noticed a formation of 4 disk like objects flying overhead in a southeasterly direction at a terrific rate of speed. The disks appeared to be spinning on their axis and were at an estimated altitude of about 20,000'.

They were silvery and appeared highly polished, and on their undersides, Dr. Battey could see a circular rim, or projection, about ¼ of the way from the edges. No sound was heard as they flew overhead. The formation sped out of view in less than 20 seconds.

Dr. Battey’s report of the sighting did not appear in print until July 6th, when the Augusta Chronicle gave it prominent front page coverage.

International News Service sent it out on the wires, where it was picked up by numerous newspapers around the country.
