"Saucers" are also hiding in the sky over the oil regions.

"Approximately 10 mysterious objects descended, stayed for a while and one by one rose into the air in formation," a woman from Hot Springs reports.

"They disappeared at an amazing rate," she adds.

According to this source, the landing occurred near the Black Hills Ordinance Depot, Igloo, "before the general excitement in 1947." According to her, many employees of the depot witnessed this event, but the ships landed too far away to approach them.

A woman from Hot Springs mentioned this event in a letter that reported a recent sighting on the evening of July 28, when three depot employees saw one of the disks in the shape of a saucer.
