Please cite this reference in any correspondence with me regarding this case.
The regional newspaper La Liberté du Morbihan for November 7, 1954, reported that at 7 a.m. on November 4, 1954, many honest folks from Landaul, "whose sincerity is beyond doubt and who have no interest in attracting public attention," had seen a "luminous craft" in their sky.
The witnesses agreed in saying that "It looked like an entire train of lights lighting up the sky with a very bright glow, in multiple colors."
People who were inside their homes at that very moment clearly saw what they believed to be a flash of lightning.
The newspaper wondered whether it was the same phenomenon seen at the same hour in Vannes and Pontivy.

LANDAUL
A luminous craft appeared on Thursday morning, November 4th, in the sky over Landaul. Until now, our skepticism was unshakable; but it has been seriously challenged by the numerous testimonies coming from honest folks whose sincerity is beyond doubt and who have no interest in attracting public attention.
It was most likely the same phenomenon seen at the same time - 7 a.m. - by residents of Vannes and Pontivy. But here, everyone who saw it agrees: "It looked like an entire train of lights lighting up the sky with an extremely bright glow, in multiple colors."
People who were inside their homes at that moment clearly saw what they believed to be a flash of lightning.
What's certain is that this train—however bright it may have been—leaves behind darkness about its origin, its destination, and its very nature!
And yet, there really was something there…
