A. No, nowhere near that.
Q. Then 375 is the total figure—I mean the number of cases Project “Saucer” listed?
A. There were a few more—something over four hundred. I don’t know the exact figure.
Q. I’ve been told that Project “Saucer” had the Air Force put out a special order for pilots to chase flying saucers. Is that right?
A. Yes, that’s right.
Q. Did that include National Guard pilots?
A. Yes, it did. When the project first started checking on saucers we were naturally anxious to get hold of one of the things. We told the pilots to do practically anything in reason, even if they had to grab one by the tail.
Q. Were any of those planes armed?
A. Only if they happened to have guns for some other mission, like gunnery practice.
Q. We’ve heard of one case where fighters chased a saucer to a high altitude. One of them emptied his guns at it.
