The UFO was sighted by four Caribou police officers, one state Civil Defense officer, three Aroostook County deputy sheriffs, on duty personnel at Loring Air Force Base (Limestone), several police officers from communities of Limestone and Fort Fairfield and one civilian.

Quote from the article:
“An unidentified airman at the Strategic Air Command base in Limestone told Caribou police that an unidentified object had appeared briefly on a radar screen, but appeared to be across the border 15 miles away in Canada.”

The article continues on page 5 (Google news).

The town of Caribou is situated 12 kilometres (7.5 miles) south-west of Loring Air Force Base.

Loring Air Force Base was closed as an active U.S. Air Force installation in 1994.
