General Correspondence of Sandia

THE RELEASE TITLE IS FLAT AND THE CONTENTS ARE NOT. The file is the Air Force Office of Special Investigations 17th District record of the green fireball investigation, 1948-1950: Lincoln LaPaz's numbered "Anomalous Luminous Phenomena" reports to Lt Col Doyle Rees, the 25 May 1950 summary to HQ USAF, a numbered compilation of sightings running past 175 entries, and particle-collection work. The title given here is the one the Department of War released it under and is kept unchanged; this note is where the contents are described.
