Part 5: UFO Crash/Retrievals: Status Report III – Amassing The Evidence

"...[On Papago Indian Reservation west of Tucson, Arizona] military personnel were about a quarter of a mile away grouped around an object that appeared to be half sunk in the sand. A disc-shaped object with a dome on top was about 30 feet in diameter and 18 feet high. On its outer edge were two rings which seemed to have windows between."

"'In the latter part of 1973, the entire Southeastern section of the U. S. was undergoing a wave of UFO sightings. The Central Texas area had an unusually large number of reports coming out of the farming communities around Calvert, Bremond, Temple and a few other small towns which are east of Fort Hood.
