Detail
This Range Fouler Debrief is a standardized U.S. Navy form used to capture the circumstances of an unauthorized intrusion into controlled airspace during active operations or training. The form records the observer's narrative account of the event.
In this case, a U.S. military operator described seeing a solid white object pass through the field of view, noting that it appeared to move erratically above the water. The report cautions that all descriptive language reflects the observer's subjective impression at the time and should not be read as a definitive statement about the object's actual characteristics. The record was released by the Department of War through the PURSUE declassification.
