Generated answer

According to the press clipping preserved in the file, the Rev. Joseph Brasky was a Catholic priest at St. Joseph's Church in Grafton, Wisconsin, located 45 miles north of Milwaukee. On July 6, 1947, he told the United Press that he heard a swishing and whirring noise, followed by a thud and a mild explosion, in his churchyard that morning [62-HQ-83894/9394b18e-8346-441d-9a86-65fbd12ff7e3]. Upon investigating, Brasky said he found a sheet metal disc approximately 18 inches in diameter, resembling a circular saw blade, about one eighth of an inch thick, and weighing about four or five pounds. The disc had a hole about one inch in diameter in the middle, and in the opening were "gadgets and some wires." He said he did not know whether it might be an elaborate practical joke, and he had notified the FBI of his find and was holding the object for the Bureau. The Milwaukee FBI office said at the time that an official report might be at his office but that he had not yet heard about the disc [62-HQ-83894/9394b18e-8346-441d-9a86-65fbd12ff7e3].
