FLYING SAUCERS OR CIGARS?

Mysterious craft were seen on Saturday
in the Concarneau sky

CONCARNEAU. (from our editorial staff.)

The Brittany sky seems to be, for some time, the favorite field of maneuvers of flying saucers or flying cigars.

The mysterious craft meet there for night rounds, sometimes singly, sometimes in squadrons.

The Concarneau airspace was also disturbed by their passages on Saturday evening.

"It was 8:30 or 9 p.m. - says Mr. Salle, beer merchant, rue Dupetit-Thouars - when I saw like two car headlights in the sky, in the direction of the Pointe de Trévignon. I had just finished my round and was near my shed. I made a sign to my wife and, afterwards, to the neighbors. They were two luminous discs, in the shape of those round tables that existed in numbers in the past. They were extended by a kind of tail. One of the discs was motionless, the other moved nearby, moving away to then join the first. They remained like that for a good ten minutes, then, after launched like a rocket, they suddenly disappeared."

Note that these observations were made last Saturday and that the same day, at the same time, other people saw the same phenomenon in the region.
