Two GCA operators observed what appeared to be three targets on the PPI (Plan Position Indicator) scope.

Tech Sergeant W. B. Maupin, Cpl. J. W. Green. Three objects tracked on GCA radar, two on a collision course, then one evaded to the right upon the request, by radio, of one of the radar operators (!). No aircraft were known to be in the area. First target strong and steady radar return at 4,000 feet and 150 mph. About three minutes later second target observed with weak intermittent return above 5,000 feet level of GCA radar, third target similar and with similar speed appeared after first two disappeared.
