SOS OVNI requests confirmation from the Drachenbronn control center in the East of France. February 99: Drachenbronn denies in a written statement: "We researched our archives to no avail". July 99: Investigators from SOS OVNI recieve a copy of the Gendarmerie report. The military radar detection is mentionned in unquestionnable terms.
