Witnessed Saucer Shaped Object

Witnessed Saucer Shaped Object

Date: April 15, 1950

Location: Waynesborough, VA

I am entering this for my 80 year old father who has told the story to me many times.

He has regretted not having reported the sighting previously and I wanted to make sure that the event was recorded on his behalf.

He says that his biggest regret to this day is that he wishes that he had yelled out so that all of the teachers and kids on the field could have seen it.

However, he was afraid that he would have gotten in trouble for calling out at the time.

Fishburne Military School is located in the Shenandoah valley of Virginia, within the city limits of Waynesborough.

While on the drill field during my junior year, I noticed a silver/metallic saucer shaped craft flying from just outside the city limits to DuPont which it circled at least 2 times at a very slow rate of speed, about the speed of a Piper Cub, which is what I thought it was at first.

It was at low altitude, about half the elevation of the mountains that surround town, which I would estimate to be 2,000' or so.

We were approximately ½ mile from the object at the closest point and we heard no sound from the object.

After circling DuPont twice the saucer turned on it side at a 90° angle and shot over the mountain at a tremendous speed.

It left so quickly that all we saw was a flash.

I had whispered to the other members of my squad which contained 9 members, and I believe most, if not all of them witnessed the UFO.
