We Thought It Was A Secret Flying Machine Of The Army Air Corps

A black cylindrical object appears over P-38s dog fighting

In July of 1944 my brother and I saw a craft that we thought was a secret flying machine of the Army Air Corps.

We were watching P-38s dog fighting over the area of Lowery Park which is in North Tampa.

When without warning appeared over the P-38s, a very large black object that looked like a big piece of pipe.

The P-38s quit dog fighting and quickly returned to base.

The black object made several maneuvers and flew of very quickly.

It would be years before I would realize that I had seen something very unusual and no doubt a UFO.
