Good morning! 
Thank you for your patience on this-- like I said, this was a first for me. 
Upon consulting internally here at HQ, our folks confirmed we do have the 
authority to process this as a derivative classification review, instead of 
a declassification request.  Based upon the summary you provided below, I 
concur with using this at the UNCLASSIFIED level in your product.  Consider 
your request approved. 
Please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you! 
Thanks,

Good morning, 
Thank you for your request.  Our process for declassifying IIRs is lengthy 
and requires AFOSI Commander signature so I'm exploring options akin to a 
security review of the UNCLASS summary you have provided below.  This is a 
first for me so I appreciate your patience as I try to streamline this 
request for you! 
Thanks,

CURRENT CLASSIFICATION S//NF-REQUESTED CLASSIFICATION UNCLASSIFIED 
Reported Appearance: An individual reported observing a large blue 
featureless triangular object with a solid, unwavering silhouette emitting 
powerful "whitish blue" light from multiple points along its perimeter. 
Reported Behavior: The reporter described the object as "hovering" 
stationary above or near a national security facility for approximately 
three minutes. They then reported observing it move to a position higher in 
their field of view. The reporter characterized the object's motion as 
"backing up" in a "jerking" or "jumping" manner inconsistent with "smooth" 
jet propulsion. The individual reported that they observed the object for 
approximately eight minutes. 
Other Observations: The reporter commented that they could not discern 
whether or how the object was controlled, could not identify its means of 
propulsion, and could not determine whether it had a defined "front or 
rear." They stated that they "didn't think" the object was a drone. 
The reporter also commented on behaviors and capabilities they did not 
directly observe. They stated that the object did not seem to travel along a 
defined flight path, possess any "photograph or data collection 
capabilities," emit a "vapor trail," or demonstrate "cloaking capabilities."
