UFO seen in Cloverdale in 1966

Summary

A 1966 UFO report describes a sighting in Cloverdale, California, where a witness saw 15 glowing objects in a V formation. These appeared as white glowing masses surrounded by mist and moved rapidly northward. The observation lasted 20 minutes and was reported without photos or physical evidence. The witness, a 31-year-old woman, contacted Hamilton Air Force Base for information. The report concluded it was likely birds, though the possibility of an unusual aerial phenomenon was not completely ruled out. The bright moonlight helped visibility, supporting the theory that flying animals were involved.

The description of the objects as "misty formations with white lights in a V shape" caused some confusion. The witness noted one object moved west to east while the rest went north. Although no noise was heard, the speed and number made them seem different from planes. The official report suggested birds were the most likely explanation, but the possibility of an unidentified phenomenon was not dismissed. The case was documented with a detailed questionnaire including location, time, and weather data, and sent to Wright-Patterson's technical division for analysis.
