16 February 1967 Morning
St Louis, Missouri, USA
Witness conversed with silver-clad occupants of 180 feet saucer, invited aboard for breakfast. Interior two large rooms, one bathed in red light.
An object was seen that departed by rapidly flying straight up until lost to sight. Occupants of the craft were seen. One cigar-shaped object, about 150 feet across, was observed by one experienced male witness on a highway for two hours (Wettling, R). A being, wearing a silver suit, was seen.
Raymond Wettling said a 180 foot, cigar shaped UFO landed in a field beside Interstate Highway 70, and three silver suited occupants of the craft invited him aboard for breakfast. "He spent a pleasant hour and 45 minutes chatting with spacemen over coffee. His hosts showed him through the craft's two rooms---one lit up with bright red lights, the other decorated like a modern office. After he left the ship, he said, it took off straight up at a high rate of speed." No one else reported seeing it.
