  Intruders over secure facilities

Security police at Loring AFB in Maine first reported a low-flying light near the weapons storage area. Over the next months, Wurtsmith, Malmstrom, and several other SAC sites logged similar intrusions with objects maneuvering silently above restricted zones.

  Investigations and alerts

Helicopter patrols and radar sweeps failed to identify the craft. Declassified teletype messages reveal urgent concern about possible foreign surveillance platforms. 12345
