From the source:Release of 2026-05-08 Incident: N/A, N/A. NARA Record Group 38, catalogue id 143685. Each of these incident summaries includes a "Check-List - Unidentified Flying Objects" that contains details about the incident. Many summaries also include witness lists or statements and other narrative reports or descriptions.

I submit there is a likelihood that on June 24, 1947, something like a space-ship came here from the moon and upon February 18, 1948, returned to the moon. This is of course speculation. But has anyone yet explained the "flying discs" in terms of all the pretty-well proven facts in connection with them? Has anyone yet devised a fuel powerful enough to kick a rocket from Earth to the Moon? There have been hundreds of reports, during the past century, on occurrences which imply this world is visited from outside space. Absence of contact by these postulatable visiting entities may imply a state of culture far beyond ours, to the point where it would be inexpedient for their members to have to do with us en-masse. These reports have never been seriously considered by science, which in general ignores them. However, according to Dr. Rocht of Chamberlin Observatory, Denver, there is nothing in astronomy to explain the thing which exploded over Norcatur. Dr. Nininger's idea that the thing was a meteor flatly disregards Dr. Rocht's opinion, which may have been based on the Denver Posts' statement that a Denver woman saw the Norcatur object twenty minutes before the explosion occurred. I submit that the Army needs men who are capable of recognizing the anomalies beforementioned when they occur, even if only to aid in speculation regarding them. The undersigned offers his services to that end, if the Army may wish to avail itself of them. /s/ N. G. MARKHAM 4
