location: NELLIS AFB; LAS VEGAS, NV
date: 1957 OR 58
time: AFTERNOON
sighting: (I ALSO REPORTED THE ROCK SPRINGS, WY SIGHTING.) ONE LAST FAMILY ANECDOTE(FOR NOW). MY UNCLE WAS AN
AIR FORCE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLER IN LAS VEGAS (NELLIS AFB) IN THE LATE 50'S. HE RECALLS ONE OCCASION WHEN A SQUADRON
OF INTERCEPTORS WAS SCRAMBLED TO INTERCEPT A "UFO". HE FURTHER RELATED THAT THE SQUADRON COMMANDER REMAINED
IN RADIO COMMUNICATION WITH THE TOWER, APPARENTLY FORGETTING TO SWITCH TO A SECURE TACTICAL CHANNEL. MY UNCLE HEARD
THIS PILOT INDICATE THAT WHATEVER HE WAS IN VISUAL CONTACT WITH WAS NOT AN AIRCRAFT (AT LEAST AS WE KNOW THEM).
AT THAT POINT SOMEONE ON THE GROUND ADVISED THE PILOT THAT HE WAS STILL ON THE TOWER FREQUENCY AND ORDERED HIM
TO SWITCH TO A TACTICAL CHANNEL. THAT IS ALL. THANKS FOR THE FORUM.
