:" ... during the war you were de-briefing pilots, and I gather you had quite  a lot of Flying Saucer reports?"  

 :"Well no, that was in the winter of 43-44, we were doing specialised raids on Stettin, that part of the Baltic, and some pilots coming back from a raid - flying Lancasters - so that's abut 20-24 thousand feet in the air, for a raid there, they'd seen lights in the sky, now we thought they were airborne lights by German  - German fighters, now they were in the area where there was the new research station at Pennemunde, so it could have been a special weapon, so they'd fired at these lights with their mid-upper turrets and rear turrets, and had no result, they hadn't shot the light out, all that they'd got was a light that was flying round-and-round the aeroplane." - Michael Bentine in conversation with Patrick Moore on a 1979 edition of The Sky at Night  (audio only)
