THE REPORT:

"Hello,

I just by chance stumbled on your article regarding accounts of UFO seen at Lakenheath in the late 1950's. I was a control tower operator at Sculthorpe RAFB between 1951 and 1954. I recall an event that happened during that time, probably 1953 in the fall. I was the tower chief on duty, it was early evening and suddenly all of our radio frequencies began to be cycled on and off simultaneously. I called to our GCA unit to see if they were causing the action and they reported that they were not. I then call the neighboring RAF station and they were having the same occurrence. I called Lakenheath and they also were experiencing the same thing. Our GCA unit was on standby as we had no traffic in the air. We had a visual sighting of a stationary bright light in the West which was visible for several minutes. I reported the action in the daily log as an unexplainable event and nothing more was ever said about it as far as I know. I find it very interesting to read about a similar occurrence which occurred in the same area several years later. I was an Airman First Class at the time - just another non-commissioned control tower operator."
