NARRATIVE

Bright green light source witnessed by P-3C aircrew preflighting for a night mission.  Completely filled the interior of the aircraft.  
To aircrew inquiry, tower reported no other aircraft using the field that night. 
My source for this sighting is ((name and rank deleted)), a veteran P-3 naval flight ((position deleted)) who was the ((title deleted)) onboard the aircraft in question.  He was ((deleted)) at another command at Brunswick. Very reputable ((rank deleted) with a TS clearance. This event clearly spooked him. 
The lights were seen by other witnesses later that morning in Portland.  Reported in local newspapers.  Not quite sure of the date.
I have filled this page out several times, but have problems filing the report.  Call for more details.
Witness indicates that date of sighting is approximate.  PD
