NARRATIVE

I was eight years old and I stepped out the front door of our house where the landlord and his son were doing yard work. We all looked up and saw a large fireball travelling north to south on a horizontal trajectory. The fireball was as large as the sun usually is in the sky. I told my mother about it and both she and my stepfather also came out of the house and we all watched it fly by until it was no longer visible. I now believe that what we saw that day was the Kecksburg object.
Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate.  However, the Kecksburg Incident occurred on December 09, 1965.  PD
