A catalog compiled from data of Jean Giraud and Jean Gérard Dohmen, in the ufology magazine INFO-OVNI, in 1975, indicates that on October 28, 1954, at 9:00 p.m., in Aulon in the Creuse, Mr. J. Gineaud and Mr. A. Tixier, both from "Les Moreaux", saw in the sky a flaming disc preceded by a kind of caterpillar that emitted lights of a thousand colors.
The craft passed quickly and silently, heading south-west at a dizzying pace.
This catalog indicated that this comes from the newspapers La Montagne for November 1st, 1954, Le Courrier for November 3, 1954, and Le Chercheur for November 6, 1954.
