Brandon, Manitoba A Deep Red Oval Shaped Object

Posted: January 21, 2008

Around 1947

I'm not sure of the year, but it was about 1947, after dark. I'm not sure whether it was Spring or Fall. A group of five of us boys from the Indian Residential School, which was about three miles northwest of Brandon, Manitoba. We were playing out in the yard. I was twelve years old in 1947, and the other boys were around that age.

One of the boys hollered,"What's that??" We all stopped and looked in the direction he was pointing. We saw a wonderful sight. Descending slowly from the starry sky was an oval-shaped object that was deep red, and which looked as if it were red-hot metal. While it was descending at about a 60 degree angle, we all began to run in the direction that it was landing. We were struck by its complete silence. Then one of the boys said, "Oh, it must be the Air Force experimenting with some type of balloon." So, we decided that we had better not go up there. It definitely came down and landed beyond the trees. We then went on with our silly game, not realizing that we were possibly witnessing the landing of a craft from another world.

I made a rough graphic to illustrate how that object looked. See the attachment. I hope you can open it.

My many thanks to this witness for his report.
