They seemed to move in an arc over his position and disappeared
to the south. At their highest point, about *10,000' 2 vapour
like trails appeared behind each obJect and they appeared to
be self luminous. * This height is based on information
obtained from the control tower at Exeter Airport later that
day.
At the end of his report~ Sgt informed me that several
other police officers had made similar reports to their
operations room at Exeter.
Shortly after this call, I contacted the Ops. Room at Exeter
and was told that they had received a number of reports, all
from police officers on duty within the counties of Cornwall
and Devon. They also said that 2 other officers of the Gwent
Police Force, had also logged a similar report.
In total I was given the names and contact addresses of 11
officers. In addition I was informed that 2 other officers who
were on a special surveillance operation somewhere in East
Devon,had also reported something very similar. unfortunately,
I was unable to obtain these officers names and can do no more
than note their sightings.
During that day, I managed to contact (by phone) all the
officers concerned and after taking details of their sightings
and with their permission despatched each a copy of our UFO
report forms for completion and return.
* Strangely, to date I have only received back 3 completed sets
of forms and what is even more puzzling, is the fact that all
of these have been from police sergeants - ~ from police
constables! Whether there is a particular reason for this
remains to be seen, but it does seem a bit odd to say the
least.
