Detailing the first sightings in 1947.
Twenty years ago we lived in St. Louis county in a rural area. One night, my 10 yo daughter yelled for me to come into her room, she could see a UFO outside.
I went in saw nothing, and then reassured her that there was no UFO, because the F-15's (F-15s?) from McDonnell Douglas would scramble and chase it.
As soon as I said, that, four of them flew right over our house, low, fast, and loud.
I have no opinion, after that, as to what it could have been.
