Narratives:

[Ref. ar1:] ALBERT ROSALES:

Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that in Piranhas, Brazil, on November 16, 1978, at an unknown time, witnesses saw three short humanoids wearing tight fitting yellow-gold outfits in a wooded area. No other information.

Albert Rosales indicates that the source is "GEPUC Brazil."

[Ref. af1:] ANTONIO FALEIRO:

28-Piranhas-GO-.November-16-1978 Witnesses saw three short humanoids wearing tight fitting yellow-gold outfits in a wooded area In other countries groups of ets were also seen already, as in Lamy - 26.03.1888 and Josserand - 22.04.1897, last century. (GEPUC)

Points to consider:

See the List of Issues.

There was no sense in mentioning the cases in Lamy and Josserand, both in the US, related to the "airship" flap there, in the summary of this case like [af1] did.
