April 24, 1952; Great Blue Hill nr. Milton, Mass. (BBU 1148) 2:30 p.m. (EST) AF Cambridge Research Center, Radar Systems Lsb, Electronics Research Div, electronics engineers, Alfred P. Furnish and Herbert J. Brun, and MIT electrical engineering senior Joseph Page, were in an observation tower on top of Great Blue Hill saw to the NW 2 very thin flat, dull reddish orange squarish objects with no corners or ovals pulled in at the waist about 10-15 ft wide, with a lip around outer edges, fly wobbly in consistently undulating "swooping" motion in horizontal flight at about 2,000 ft altitude. Objects then climbed about 15° elevation at an estimated 240 mph, then flew away and disappeared due to distance. No trail or exhaust, no sound, visibility 70+ miles. [Unclear whether observers used 6x aircraft tracking telescope.] (Berliner; FUFOR Index; Loren Gross Jan-May 1952)

Very cool sighting. Star and Flag
Here is a similar encounter where the crew of a B-25 came within 300 feet of a rectangular object.

Turns out this UFO was only 25 miles from Albuquerque and only around two months after the incident mentioned in your OP.
It kind of reminds me of the Ufo claimed to have been seen at the scene of the Tunguska incident in 1908. The reports of that Ufo were that it was cylindrical in shape. If at the right vantage point, it would appear rectangular.
