The reason I ask is that I was there at the time, working the mid-shift at the 24th NORAD Region when all this went down. I was a Computer Maintenance Repairman on the IBM-Q7 SAGE Computer System used by NORAD for region control in those days. I saw some pretty strange things on both the AF and FAA consoles that night...like objects doing a 180 degree turn at 400-plus knots without even slowing down (like a ball bouncing off a wall). Anyway, the next morning some Officers came and took the Master Operational Recording Tapes (MORT) away any there was never any explaination given as to what the results were. I saw an obscure reference to this incident in a UFO text file once, but was wondering if anyone else ever dug up any additional information about it? Even though I was there, I probably know less about it (except for what I saw) than anyone who studies this stuff.
