The record
An official file preserves that a report was made and examined. It does not, by itself, establish what was seen.

What is not settled
The Blue Book scan is water-damaged and heavily degraded; no legible occupant description or conclusion line could be extracted, so any quotation from it is currently unverifiable. The canonical grey morphology derives from 1964 hypnosis sessions, which are not federal records. Include only with a clean microfilm capture.
