Lonnie Zamora
Sergeant Lonnie Zamora of the Socorro Police Department was the individual who
witnessed the Socorro landing in New Mexico on Friday 24 April 1964.
The Project Blue Book investigation stated:
"There is no doubt that Lonnie Zamora saw an object which left quite an impression
on him. There is also no question about Zamora's reliability. He is a serious officer, a pillar
of his church, and a man well versed in recognising airborne vehicles in his area.
He is puzzled by what he saw, and frankly , so are we. This is the best documented case
on record."
