End of October, 1954, Périers, Manche:

Reference for this case: End-Oct-54-Périers.
Please cite this reference in any correspondence with me regarding this case.

Summary:

In April 1998, the ufology bulletin UFO Log illustrated an article about the 1954 French wave by copying the title of a newspaper article noted as being La Manche Libre for October 31, 1954.

This title reported that several places in the Manche department had been overflown by the "flying saucers"; one of the cities mentioned was Périers.

Reports:

[Ref. ufl1:] UFOLOGY BULLETIN "UFO LOG":

Explanations:

The information is obviously insufficient as it stands; but I must say that when there is such an accumulation of "flying saucers" probably concomitant and on an area such as a department, or several, the end of the story is that it was in no way "flying saucers", but a meteor.

The places mentioned in [ufl1]. From Cherbourg to Périers, there are 53 km in straight line.

Keywords:
