What happened during the Greer incident?

The Greer incident, which occurred on July 24, 1952, involved a series of radar contacts and visual sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) over Washington, D.C. Military jets were scrambled to intercept these objects, which were observed on radar making erratic movements. Despite the extensive military response, the objects evaded capture, leading to heightened public interest and concern over UFOs. This incident contributed to the U.S. government's ongoing investigations into unidentified aerial phenomena.
