1952 · Mishawaka — the sister city's ground · Run B #171
The whole of this case is one line in the Air Force's own 1952 index, and the line carries two dates in the record, printed whole and not merged: the index line itself reads, in full: Mishawaka, Indiana — INSUFFICIENT DATA. No witness description, no object, no narrative survives in the open index record reached; the evaluation is this section's own, and it is a disposition, not an omission — Blue Book's clerks had a report from Mishawaka in the great flap year and found too little in it to evaluate. The dating conflict: in the surviving scan of the 1952 index (NARA T-1206 indexes, Internet Archive), the Mishawaka line stands inside the March 1952 listings, in a dated sequence running the 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th of that month — Misawa, the Atlantic, São Paulo and Cyprus for its neighbours — which reads as 8 March 1952. The register's floor for this section, following the sister builds, dates the same case 8 May 1952. This addendum prints both: the index's own sequence is the primary document and is given first; the May dating is the checklist tradition's, carried in the Granger leg of this same run, and is not silently substituted. The settling instrument is named: the case file itself, in NARA microfilm publication T-1206, which carries its own date line. Placement: Mishawaka, the sister city across the river east — its own build owns any fuller telling.
