Flying In Formation As Geese Would Fly

Flying In Formation As Geese Would Fly

Date: March 1 1963

Location: Tucson, AZ

We lived on the South side of Tucson about a mile from the Papago indian reservation.

I went outside to feed our pigeons at about 7:00 a.m. before I went to school.

I saw them to the West flying in formation like geese fly.

They were about 100' above the ground flying at about 17 mph.

I was very excited and started yelling for my mother and brothers.

2 of my brothers and mom came outside as we saw them move to the South.

They were triangular shaped with rounded edges, grey in color, and seemed to be about 30' or so.

They proceeded towards the reservation slowly until they came to a small mountain where the reservation hospital is located.

Behind the mountain is the Santa Cruz River which is dry most of the year, this is about 3 miles from our home.

They then stopped and hovered for a bit, then disappeared behind the mountain into I believe the Santa Cruz.

After school that day my 2 brothers and I went to see if we could find any traces but didn't find any.

That was 34 years ago and is just as vivid as then.
