Flare UFO reported in the Pacific

Summary

In July 1944, a ground observer reported an object rising and falling in the Pacific. A single light was recorded moving in a 130-degree direction, without leaving physical evidence or photographs. The report classified it as a rocket or flare, though its origin or destination was not observed. The message, part of Project 10073, was shared with multiple military and intelligence agencies, showing their interest in unexplained aerial phenomena.

The document, although brief, shows how even during World War II, unusual sightings were recorded and analyzed. Despite the lack of concrete data, the precise location and movement description suggest a careful observation. This type of record, though considered a flare, is a key piece to understand how air forces dealt with UFO reports in that era.
