Size of Object(s)Approximately the size of a dime held at arms length. Distance to Object(s) & AltitudeDue to night and the distance and elevation, it couldn't be determined. Shape of Object(s)Round Color of Object(s):Bright Green Full Description & DetailsI was home on leave from the Air Force and out on a date one night. We parked at the entrance to a potato field, just across the local railroad tracks. We were observing the night sky, admiring the stars. My date turned to retrieve a jacket from the back seat, due to the cold summer nights in Maine. While she was looking away, I observed a bright green, circular object. It was approximately the size of a dime held out at arms length and was hazy around the edges. It passed silently across my field of vision and disappeared behind a line of trees that separate fields. We were parked on the low side of the field and the tree line was a slightly higher elevation . The whole observation was only a couple of seconds and when I expressed awe at the sight, my date turned around but was too late to see it. We soon left the area and returned home. A few nights later, she told me that her cousin had observed the same thing, on the same night. I'll never forget the incident. Witness BackgroundAt the time I was an Airman First Class in the Air Force. I lived next to Loring Air Force Base all my life and was familiar with aircraft lights and shapes. I was a High School Graduate, and a Small Arms Marksmanship Instructor in the Air Force. I have always had a fascination with UFOs and had read plenty of material on them, I doubted that I would ever see one though. Being a member of the Air Force and knowing what I did about Blue Book and JANAP-147. I didn't want to bother reporting a UFO to authorities that might seek to discipline me for my honesty.
