Iwo Jima teardrop sighting by
Leonard Stringfield (Grok rendering)
Dolan: "12 5th Air Force intelligence
specialists aboard a C-46...10,000 feet,
the crew saw 3 teardrop-shaped objects,
brilliantly white—'like burning magnesium'
... navigational needles went wild,
the left engine faltered and spurted oil, the
plane lost altitude... in a close formation,
the objects faded into a cloud bank... the
plane's engines restarted"
