UFO in V formation over Maryland 1952

Summary

A declassified document from 1952 describes a sighting of a group of objects in a "V" formation in the sky over Maryland. The witness, an employee of the Interstate Commerce Commission, saw the objects on a sunny day, between March 22 and 29. The objects appeared gray, oval, and moved at high speed and altitude. The observer noted that the formation was not rigid, with some objects slightly shifting positions. The description matched photographs published in a Washington newspaper, prompting interest from the Air Force.

The report was sent to Project Blue Book, where the similarity to other cases was highlighted. Although no immediate action was taken, further investigation was suggested if new evidence emerged. The testimony, though vague on details like exact time and number of objects, was considered sufficient to be included in records. The witness's letter was archived and declassified decades later, as part of government document release policies.
