On December 24, 2008, a reader of my website emailed to share with me an indirect testimony:
His grandmother, who was decesaed, but was 43 at the time of the observation in 1954 on a specific date he did not know, lived on the top of Belleville in Paris. She told him that she had seen an inexplicable group of lights from her balcony in 1954. There were about 6 lights, they were going, in formation, towards the Eiffel Tower and probably came from the East of Paris.
The next day, the newspapers had talked about it, some would have proposed photos.

Hello,
I read the pages of your website with interest.
I have an indirect testimony which might interest you maybe.
My grandmother (deceased now but she was 43-year-old at the time) who lived on the top of Belleville in Paris told me she saw from her balcony a group of unexplainable light in 1954. These light (a half dozen) went (in formation) to the Eiffel tower and probably came from the east of Paris. The next day the newspapers told about it (some proposed photographs ?)
I do not know the precise date.
Regards
Unidentified, insufficient data.
Of course I have other cases of lights over Paris in my catalog, but no other case so far of a group of lights.
