Televison News Bulletin Reports UFO Sighting
This event happened in the mid 1960s when I was watching early evening television with my parents and sisters. It would have been around 7 P.M., or so, when a news bulletin came on. Those were the days when they would cut into the scheduled programming live on air and verbally announce the bulletin while flashing the news bulletin screen.
I still remember the words almost verbatim; “The Hancock Field Control Tower reports a large UFO traveling east over Central New York.”
My father immediately went outside to look, but was not able to see anything.
Hancock Field is the international airport located in Syracuse, New York. My home at the time of the event was approximately sixteen miles east of the airport. By happenchance some years later I acquired a paperback edition of Project Blue Book which contained black & white UFO photographs. One of those photos was listed as “Syracuse, NY, 1966.”
I’m pretty confident this photo depicted the UFO that was the subject of the news bulletin.
