Here's another 'oldie but goodie' UFO sighting from
Michigan.
UFO SIGHTINGS CONTINUE Huron Daily Tribune (Bad
Axe, Michigan) Friday, October 19, 1973
Manistee (UPI)-What is three times the size of
a jumbo 747 jet, the shape of an X-15 experimental rocket, and
has rotating red, green and white lights?
The entire Manistee County Sheriff's Department
Thursday night insisted they were eyewitnesses to a display of
five...UFOs.
"There was a big bright light in the
east...two objects coming from the south...red, white and green
lights something like an airplane...traveling together towards
the light...back and forth" said Sheriff's Deputy Neil
Renne.
Renne said the objects, which were not
discernable as common sights, sat hovering in the sky over this
northern Lake Michigan community for nearly an hour.

Deputy John Giplczik, who was dispatched to the
city airport to get a closer glimpse of the flashing sights, said
one came within one half mile of the ground as if to land.
"It looked like the experimental Air Force
rocket, but much larger," he said.
"It looked like it was going to land and
then there was a real dead silence."
A local citizen, who asks to not be
identified, said the UFOs kept changing colors and four of them
seemed to drift westward over Lake Michigan.
"It was really something," Giplczik
said. "Anyone who doesn't believe in UFOs is stupid."
Note: What a quote from Deputy Giplczik!!!
