As well as having a "PRIORITY" stamp, the above document contained some intersting hand written comments.  The word "UFO" was written in the top right hand corner. Also the following communication regarding the photograph was noted:

Mr. Greenwood

I don't believe we shall go
further on this one, or it may cost
us money. Or, alternatively, we could
ask him to release photo
to us for DND
purposes only

22Nov        Lt. YK' Wh
                   DOPS 4

W/C Robertson

The photo would seem
useless for analysis
I suggest that
you take no
action
