Initial data
The naval officer watched a strange event on the radar.
Al wells, then a Lieutenant JG aboard the escort aircraft carrier Salamaua (CVE-96), was an officer in the interceptor. While South of Okinawa, he and his group were concerned about the image on the radar screen where the object seemed to be heading towards him with incredible speed. They could not distinguish any figure, but it is assumed that the object moves at a speed of about 1,000 miles per hour, moving at the rate of from Formosa to Japan. At that time, they feared it was a bomb Tank, but the object was moving too fast for her. They waited until he hit. Then, tracing it to several miles from the ship, the radar made another sweep, lost the object from sight.

Original news
Naval officer witnessed strange event on radar. E. L. Wells, then Lt. J.G. aboard the escort aircraft carrier Salamaua (CVE-96), was interceptor officer. While south of Okinawa he and his group were disturbed by the appearance of a “blip” on the screen that appeared to be traveling toward them at a terrific rate of speed. They were unable to distinguish any shape, but the object was estimated to be traveling at about 1,000 miles an hour, moving on a course of zero one zero, coming in from the direction of Formosa and traveling toward Japan. At that time they feared it was a Baka bomb, but it was apparently moving too fast. They braced themselves and waited for it to hit. Then, after tracking it to just a few miles from the ship, as the radar made another sweep, they lost it.
