Mr. Heflin said he carried a camera with him for his work, and that during the time the object was in sight he was able to take the three pictures.
During the time the object was near, Mr. Helfin said, he tried to communicate with his supervisor over a two-way radio in his vehicle, but the radio was inoperative. He said the radio has since worked perfectly.
Despite the object's proximity to the Marine base, radar operators failed to report any mysterious identification on Aug. 3.
Mr. Helfin said he was willing to take a lie-detector test in reply to skeptics who may say the pictures are the products of trick photography.
