On 23 May 1954, articles by Kilgallen, Dorothy of the New York Journal-American published in various American newspapers claimed she had been told by “a British official of cabinet rank” that British scientists and airmen had “examined the wreckage of one mysterious flying ship” and are convinced that “these strange aerial objects are not optical illusions or Soviet inventions, but are actually flying saucers which originate on another planet”.
