8. BRIEF SUMMARY OF SIGHTING Nine (9) objects in five (5) separate formations were sighted from Pacific Beach, Calif., by a party of mixed military and civilian persons. Each object seemed oval in shape and slightly bluish in color. There was no streak or trail. The objects were in a 20-degree formation with one object formation was "V" shaped. The objects were at first thought to be jet aircraft, but seemed too fast for aircraft.

11. COMMENTS A telephone check with one member of the party concerned with this sighting only verified the initial report and did not bring to light further information. Also, a check with a local observer and several weather stations resulted in no indication of any type astronomical or meteorological activity which might account for this sighting. Although there were jet aircraft in the air at the time, a positive identification can not be positive.
