    In the summer of 1947, the skies over Maury Island, Washington, just north of Tacoma, held secrets that would captivate a nation. It all began when private pilot Kenneth Arnold reported seeing a string of nine shiny flying objects zooming past Mount Rainier at incredible speeds. His account led to the coining of terms like "flying saucer" and "flying discs" to describe these mysterious craft.

    But it was Harold Dahl's encounter on Jun 21, 1947, that truly ignited the intrigue. While patrolling Maury Island's east bay, Dahl witnessed six massive doughnut-shaped aircraft.
