UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS
In response to a letter directed by him to Mr. Robert Cutler, Special Assistant to President Dwight D. Eisenhower, reflecting that he "might have some information about the rocket in Texas," Wladyslaw Krasuski, 5457 Joseph Campau, Detroit, was interviewed November 7, 1957, and furnished the following information:
Born [redacted] in the State of [redacted] FOIA(b)(6)
Krasuski was brought from Poland as a Prisoner of War to Gut Alt Golssen, approximately 30 miles east of Berlin, Germany, in May, 1942, where he remained until a few weeks after the end of World War II. He spent the following years at Displaced Persons Camps at Kork, Strasburg, Offenburg, Milheim and Freiburg, Germany. He attended a radio technician school at Freiburg and for about a year was employed in a textile mill at Laurachbaden, Germany. He arrived in the United States at New York, May 2, 1951, via the "S.S. General Stewart" as a Displaced Person, destined to the Reverend Father Petro Walkowiak, Hamtramck, Michigan; his alien registration number [redacted] (b)(6)
Since May, 1951, he has been employed at the Gobel Brewery, Detroit.
News report of mysterious vehicle in Texas causing engines to stall prompted him to communicate with the United States Government concerning a similar phenomenon observed by him in 1944 in the area of Gut Alt Golssen.
According to Krasuski, during 1944, month not recalled, while enroute to work in a field a short distance north of Gut Alt Golssen, their tractor engine stalled on a road through a swamp area. No machinery or other vehicle was then visible although a noise was heard described as a high-pitched whine similar to that produced by a large electric generator.

An "SS" guard appeared and talked briefly with the German
driver of the tractor, who waited five to ten minutes,
after which the noise stopped and the tractor engine was
started normally. Approximately 3 hours later in the same
swamp area, but away from the road where the work crew was
cutting "hay", he surreptitiously, because of the German
in charge of the crew and "SS" guards in the otherwise deserted
area, observed a circular enclosure approximately 100 to
150 yards in diameter protected from viewers by a tarpaulin-
type wall approximately 50 feet high, from which a vehicle
was observed to slowly rise vertically to a height sufficient
to clear the wall and then to move slowly horizontally a
short distance out of his view, which was obstructed by
nearby trees.
This vehicle, observed from approximately
500 feet, was described as circular in shape, 75 to 100
yards in diameter, and about 14 feet high, consisting of
dark gray stationary top and bottom sections, five to six
feet high. The approximate three foot middle section appeared
to be a rapidly moving component producing a continuous blur
similar to an aeroplane propeller, but extending the cir-
cumferance of the vehicle so far as could be observed. The
noise emanating from the vehicle was similar but of somewhat
lower pitch than the noise previously heard. The engine of
