A Washington witness at Battle Ground reported watching what appeared to be a military helicopter escorting a cigar-shaped UFO very close to ground level, according to testimony in Case 75344 from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
.
The incident occurred beginning at 11:20 p.m. on March 21, 2016, and was reported to MUFON the following day.

“I was in the backyard and heard this incoming Chinook helicopter flying near, close to the ground, very loud, and as it passed into view, just ahead of it was this dark moving craft,” the witness stated.“Observing both was very short, but I could make out a cigar shape as best as I can describe. It could have been diamond shaped, or could be a disc on edge, but it was very much something that was making no sound at all. Seeing the helicopter so close to it, could see it was being escorted.”

“The helicopter was manmade, without visible insignia, possibly a dark blue/green color. Looked to be a Chinook, as it had two props. Very large, very loud. Object was flying in front of the helicopter, and appeared totally black, oblong, like a cigar or elongated diamond shape. Weather was clear, 46-degrees F., with a visibility of 10 miles. Wind about 5 mph.Battleground is a thriving populous community, a suburb of Vancouver. It is located about 30 miles north of Portland International Airport, and about 20 miles north of Vancouver and about 30 miles southwest of Mount St. Helens.”

You don't hear as much about the cigar shaped UFO's. Back in the 60's we had a report of one here in town. It was escorted? Wonder what that's all about?

So you actually believe this article, or are you being sarcastic
Will be interesting to see how they handle it when the craft start showing up in lots of neighborhoods and the nightly news.
MUFON Case #75413 was the same night, and almost the same description. The witness in that correlating case was able to see the object for a longer time.

Though there is often a lot of noise, I attempt to discern the signal.
Extraneous zeros are noise.
