UFO Depiction

Looking back: May 27, 1966 - On this day in southwest
Hertfordshire...
Reports in the “Observer” that two Garston housewives claimed to
have seen a “flying saucer” have brought forward a host of counter claims and
theories.
The most startling came from the director of the British “Flying
Saucer Review”, Mr. Gordon Creighton of Cedars Avenue. Rickmansworth.
Mr. Creighton, who has made 10 broadcasts and television
appearances in the past year on the subject of “unidentified flying objects,”
said he would not be surprised if the two housewives had witnessed a landing.
“We don’t think the public are coming forward and saying what they
have seen,” Mr. Creighton told an Observer reported this week. “Some of them
may be afraid. We do know from reports that there have been many such things
seen in and around Watford.”
Mr. Creighton said that he believed there had been landings in
Chipperfield and in the Chilterns and he had heard reports that a flying saucer
actually landed on Berkhamsted Common about ten years ago.
Mr. Creighton claims a lot of reports on flying saucers and other
unidentified objects are “hushed up” by the Government. He also believes
similar reports are very carefully censored in the national press.
“A lot of people are very concerned to make out we are cranks,” he
said.
“Nevertheless a tremendous lot is happening in this field of
unidentified aircraft. Something very dramatic is going to occur one day and
then there will be a lot of red faces.”
