*NOTE: DO NOT RELEASE CALLER'S NAME TO AN INVESTIGATOR UNTIL HE HAS CONTACTED NUFORC TO GIVE US PERMISSION TO DO SO. HE DID NOT WANT HIS NAME GIVEN TO MICHAEL STRAINIC, BUT HE WAS GIVEN STRAINIC'S TELEPHONE NUMBER, AND MAY CONTACT HIM AFTER HE HAS SPOKEN WITH HIS WIFE ABOUT THEIR SIGHTING.*

The caller is a dairy farmer, who was out in one of his fields at 0420 hours on Friday, 27SE96, preparing to begin milking his herd of cows. He suddenly witnessed a bizarre, cigar-shaped hovering above his field approximately 100 to 200 yards away. It was cigar-shaped, and had a bright, flashing red light on it.

He attempted to ignore the object, until it began to approach him, at which time, he went to get his wife. She was witness to it briefly, after which time, the object just suddenly disappeared in a split second!

When asked whether the dairy cattle had seemed to respond to the object, or take note of it in any way, he said he did not think so, or at least did not notice any such response from them.

(Davenport told him about the sighting seen from Bothell during the lunar eclipse on 26SE96. I forgot to tell him about sighting in Florida on same night as his sighting.)
