While serving in the USN aboard the aircraft carrier USS FDR, Chester Grushin was below decks when he noticed several of the sailors, hurrying to the flight deck. When he reached the flight deck, there were about 25 people watching the orange oblong light in the sky.

The light approached the ship, swing a way, blocking the background of the stars in the sky and becoming more. In the distance, probably no more than a few hundred feet from the ship, he stopped and hovered.

Grushin saw the row of square Windows, lit a dim orange light. Two of these Windows, to his left, he saw the inhabitants of the object, one in each window. One of them, it seemed, was leaning against the glass, looking down on the witnesses, while the other was visible only from the neck up. Then they both moved away and were no longer visible.

At a close distance Grushin could feel the wave of heat coming from the object. After the figures disappeared, the lower part of the object began to glow red orange.

When the object began to move away, it became brighter, and they saw clearly that it has the form of cigars. The faster he went, the brighter it became.

The observation lasted from two to five minutes.

The next day Grushin got up early to see if there was mention of this incident in the “plan of the day". He found nothing so when others asked him about it, he denied that he saw anything. On the other hand, he could not find anyone who would be willing to talk about it.

Original news

While serving in the USN aboard the aircraft carrier USS FDR, Chester Grusinski was below decks when he noticed a number of seamen hurrying up to the flight deck of the carrier. When he got to the flight deck, there were approximately 25 other men present observing an oblong, orange light in the sky. The light approached the carrier in a “wobbling” fashion, blocking out the background of stars in the sky and becoming larger. At a distance of probably no more than several hundred feet from the vessel, it stopped and hovered; Grusinski could clearly see a row of square windows, lighted within by a dull orange glow; in two of these windows, to his left, he could see occupants, one in each window. One appeared to be leaning against the glass and looking down at the witnesses, while the other could be seen only from the neck up. Then they both moved away and were no longer visible. At is closer range; Grusinski could feel a wave of warmth coming from the object. After the figures disappeared, the bottom of the object began glowing a red orange; it became brighter as the object began to move off, and they could clearly see then that it was cigar shaped. The faster it moved, the brighter it got. The observation lasted from two to five minutes. The next day, Grusinski, got up early to see if there was any reference to the incident in the “plan of the day.” He found none; when queried about it by others, he denied having seen anything. On the other hand, he was unable to find anyone else who was willing to talk about it.
