| MI: | Yeah. | |
| TT: | With no other colors associated? | |
| MI: | I don't remember seeing any other lights and maybe I did see it as a, you know, if I said I saw a different color light it wouldn't have been green or red or anything I don't think. And it might have been, and I don't remember seeing it fade or, maybe bright or dim from time to time, but I don't remember that even. But if I said at that time that I saw it, then I probably saw it but I don't remember it now. | |
| TT: | Let's talk about that discrepancy again. Your report says the sighting began to occur at 12:30 and lasted until 4:30. Does that make sense that it lasted for four and a half hours? | |
| MI: | No, no, that doesn't make sense. | |
| TT: | How long did that whole incident where you observed the object last? | |
| MI: | It seemed like four hours but it might have only been two hours. | |
| TT: | OK. | |
| MI: | I put three and a half to four hours. If I said that at the time, then I'd have to believe that. I can't imagine why I said I saw it at 0030 [GMT] if it was 02:30 [CDT]. | |
| TT: | O'Connor's got 2:30. | |
| MI: | If that's the case we saw it till way after daylight and that doesn't make sense at all, because I remember the B-52 going over and it was still dark because all we could see on the B-52 was a light coming for a long time, or, not a long time but we saw a light, and then it got brighter, and then we could hear it and it goes flying over and it was still dark then. | |
| TT: | If you watched the thing for somewhere between two and four hours was that all you were interested in, was watching the object that whole time? | |
| MI: | Oh yeah. | |
| TT: | Because during the whole time were you reporting back to the base your observations? | |
| MI: | Yeah, we were talking to the base the whole time if I remember right, and it might have been lapses of minutes between conversation, but I remember them saying that a B-52 was taking off and was going to fly over and I had wondered why they didn't, you know, scramble something else. | |
| TT: | But who is it that mentioned that they did see the 106s fly over? | |
| JK: | O'Connor said, "they came blasting right over the site." [LF N-7]. |
