This document is a U.S. military intelligence report (dated December 29, 1950) on a purported flying saucer sighting in Kenya. The report, prepared by Lt. Col. Leo J. Query, documents an eyewitness account from December 2, 1950, near Nanyika golf course. A civilian man and his wife playing golf heard a high-pitched buzzing sound, initially thought to be bees. Upon investigation, they observed a pearly, iridescent circular object hovering at considerable altitude, described as resembling a flattened top, approximately the size of an East African 50-cent piece. The object appeared to spin clockwise while remaining nearly stationary. The witness emphasizes the observation was unsolicited and unbiased, occurring before any preconceived notions. The report is classified as evaluation C-3 and sourced from the East African Standard newspaper.
