On Tuesday, around 4 p.m., Mr. Lucas, director of the Juvénal des Ursins Clinic on Rue Champeaux in Troyes, was in his office when he was suddenly called by one of his employees.
"Sir, come quickly."
Mr. Lucas rushed into the courtyard, and his eyes followed the direction indicated by his employee's arm.
In the clear blue sky, an unusual craft was moving about.
Together with Doctors Guny, Bertrand, and several members of the clinic's staff, Mr. Lucas observed the movement of the craft, which was visibly rotating on itself, surrounded by a sort of green halo, and looked nothing like an airplane.
It rose gradually and then completely disappeared.
Mr. Lucas regretted not having a camera at hand, as he could have captured on film the mysterious craft, which exactly matched the descriptions of flying saucers reported by the American army.
