Initial data
Observation in the midst of civil war in Spain.
English novelist and former soldier Valentine Williams and two others drove from the headquarters of General Franco in Burgos to Biarritz, France. The vision occurred at 4:18 PM in the Basque province of Guipuzcoa, about 75 miles from San Sebastian.
The followers of Williams in astonishment, gasped, and he turned to look. He saw a bright burning object moving at right angles to the road, heading North with amazing speed. Williams later described it as a streamer of white smoke.
As he flew, he exploded in bright orange flames. Sound or explosion was not.
When they reached the beach, they told his story. Tom Dupree from the British Consulate in the Hyundai, said it was in San Sebastian (about 30 miles West of Biarritz) at the same time on the same day and saw the same object.
This UFO could be particularly large fireball, burning brightly enough to be visible in daylight. However, it seems that the object was moving parallel to the ground, not falling.

A sighting in the midst of the Spanish Civil War. English novelist and former soldier Valentine Williams and two others were driving from General Franco’s headquarters in Burgos to Biarritz, France. The sighting occurred at 4:18 pm in the Basque province of Guipuzcoa, about 75 miles from San Sebastian. Williams’ companions gasped in amazement; he turned to see what he thought was a flare or traced round on a course at right angles to the road, heading northward at an amazing velocity. Williams later described it as ‘like a streamer of white smoke… As it went, it burst into a bright orange flame. There was no sound or explosion.’ When they reached Biarritz, they told their story. Tom Dupree, from the British Consulate at Hendaye, said the had been at San Sebastian (about 30 miles west of Biarritz) at the same time of that day and had seen the same object.
