A disk shaped object with two men aboard dressed in aluminum-like suits
Mrs. Moreland saw a diskshaped object as she was milking cows. It was about ten meters diameter, had two intense, green lights and two rows of jets around the rim, emitting orange flames. Inside a glass dome on top were two men dressed in aluminumlike suits. The craft did not land, but took off at great speed with a high-pitched sound. Heat sensation. An object was observed. Occupants of the craft were seen.One green-orange saucer, about 40 feet across, was observed in cloudy weather by more than one female witness in a pasture for over three minutes. A high-pitched sound was heard. Two 5.7-foot-tall humanoids, each wearing a silver diver's suit and helmet, were seen.
Walking to her cow shed, Mrs Frederick Moreland saw a round object with 2 green lights come down out of the clouds to hover at rooftop level. Around its edge were 2 counter-rotating belts of fiery orange jets. A glass like cowl covered its top, and through this she could see 2 men wearing diver's helmets, one of whom stood up and leaned forward; both were clad in tight fitting silvery colored suits. As it departed, the UFO made a whining high-pitched sound, and left behind it a smell "just like pepper."
