The Battle of Los Angeles
Though no battles actually took place on U.S soil, a misconception portrayed one in the coastal Californian city of Los Angeles. The day was February 24th 1942, it was a dark night, and the Americans were already in fear for their lives because of what happened to Pearl Harbor a few months back, with that being said they were ready for an attack. During that night, an Unidentified Flying Object (UFO) flew over the coast of LA, the Americans already in fear began to fire artillery at the saucer shaped UFO for hours until early morning of February 25th. After the event took place, the Secretary of State said it was a case of "war nerves" and it was a false alarm. they said it to be a weather balloon, but some speculate it to be from extraterrestrial's, no one is a 100% sure still to this day.
