MEMORANDUM FOR: Assistant Director for Scientific Intelligence
SUBJECT: Unidentified Flying Object
1. OSI and OSA, we believe; received similar information
regarding a UFO in the vicinity of Puerto Rico during period
18-24 November 1964. As you can see by the cable originated
by the Commander, Caribbean Sea Frontier, to Commander in
Chief Atlantic Fleet, date time group Ol/2048Z December,
CINCLANTFLT was informed that UFO identified by CO Ramey as
being YF-12A. We think ONI finally convinced, through our
efforts, that UFO in fact not YF-12A or similar category
Lockheed Aircraft.
2. Navy has provided, at our request, pertinent traffic
on this subject, as well as original radar film, Attachment 1,
with accompanying prints of same. Request OSI, possibly in
conjunction with OEL, evaluate the radar photography to
determine if any further information can be gotten through
a thorough scientific analysis of the material relative to a
high speed, high altitude UFO.
3. Request on completion of OSI study that the attached
documents, film and prints be returned to the TCO/BCO/OSA
for return to Navy.
