LOOKING BACK  By Bob Gribble from the MUFON UFO Journal # 289, May 1992

May 1977
---------
Karen McLennan, 10, and Fiona Morrison 10, of Elgin,
Scotland said they saw a UFO and a man dressed in a silver
uniform in the wooded area near their Thornhill housing estate
on the evening of the 18th. The girls said they were playing
in the wooded area when they heard a strange humming
sound. They investigated and saw a long cylindrical object,
about 30 feet in length, with a dome on top and with a
red rotating band around it. Standing beside the object was
what appeared to be a man dressed all in silver. The girls
ran off, and when they turned around they saw the object
taking off in jerky movements before streaking skywards
at a tremendous speed. The following day Karen's mother,
Mrs. Caroline McLennan and the girls visited the spot
where the object had been and found a circular area of around
100 yards where there had obviously been damage to trees,
and where some of the smaller trees appeared to have
singe marks. (The Press & Journal, Aberdeen, Scotland,
