page 1 details an unsuccessful trip to interview dr peoples (who it was found upon arrival had returned to his own laboratory as he was only on loan
to holloman afb at the time) the teletype informing of his departure had apparantly not been received in due time. however, dr joseph olsen also saw
the object and was interviewed. basic report of a round, white object which moved at high speed. several other witnesses are alluded to although not
all were for this particular event. the last paragraph deteriorates in quality to gain sufficient information.
page 2 mentions that photographs were taken by another civilian in arizona on the same day. the photographs if available were to be collected and
forwarded on. mr rhodes' camera was taken for examination.

The letter in this document is the same one in the "Project Sign Teletype" document, but it includes a second page which is missing in the other
document.
This investigation of the UFO over Holloman AFB is a very interesting read.
