"There was no sound" - Flying Saucer Seen Over Texas in 1947, Same Year as Roswell

• When: 1947 (specific day and time unknown)
• Where: Jacksonville
• What: Silent, hovering saucer-shaped craft that then flew away

I'm putting together a YouTube video about 1940s/50s flying saucers over Texas, and I stumbled upon an intriguing MUFON report (case 9113) that I just had to share with you. Check it out, and as always, let me know what you think in the comments below, or on Facebook or Twitter:

A late 1940s sighting in a rural Texas setting.

I was a small child playing in the back yard of my rural East Texas home when I saw it. My mother was inside and I called to her several times to come look. Finally I said "Mommy, come look at this funny looking moon". It seemed to have been hovering while I was alone but when she came out it started to move, slowly to the northeast.
We walked around the corner of the house to find that our elderly neighbors were also watching it from across the road.
It moved directly over our house from southeast to northwest. There were no memorable flashing lights but a disk or "saucer" like object that seemed to be sitting still then moved away with deliberation. We watched until it was out of our sight.
It was smaller than a full moon but still perfectly round, so it must have been fairly close to the ground, perhaps five to ten thousand feet.
There was no sound.
Mother and I discussed this many times over the years but I still have a vivid memory of the event.
