Los Angeles, February 26, 1942. Battle in heaven between ' Coast Artillery, and a strange unidentified object . It is night. Inverale in the sky, hundreds of volleys of bullets hurl themselves against the strange craft light suddenly appeared.
But the fire does not seem the slightest dent in the light that is visible for at least half an hour . The people, affacciatta the windows, wrapped up and cold, looking at the incredible scenery. But the day after only a few papers describe the incident, and so summary. Before disappearing permanently to Long Beach, the strange ship had six victims, then vanished.
Although the Los Angeles Times that day, the headline said " Army declares that the alarm is real ", it was no description of 'object, as had been sighted by hundreds of thousands of citizens, as well as by the police.
Whether it's a false alarm? An exercise military? But the question that many have been placed: why the army would have had to waste a lot of ammunition and the like just to test? Obvious question remained unanswered.
is what they told the institutional sources. There were two official statements of the Washington Navy : the first cleared in the matter short, by the mouth of the Secretary Frank Knox , relying on " shaken nerves of the population. The second one says: " The plane that caused the blackout in the Los Angeles for several hours this morning has not been identified . A hole in the water. Better not say, and do not know. The aliens must remain the usual taboos, the mystery ever.
In general hustle and bustle, the city was obscured for 5 hours, from 2.25 to 7.21. What will be the truth? What really happened that night? And above all, because the military has shot with such fury? What threat could blight the population of the city of angels?
