Justin's mother: silvery cylinder over Marondera

What was reported

Appended to Justin's story: Justin's mother says that while she was at school in Marondera in the early 1970s she herself saw a silvery cylinder over the town. Because of that experience she believes her son's January 1995 account implicitly. No further detail of her sighting is printed, and the year is only approximate. Hind includes it as a family precedent for the Mandara cylinder, and it adds Marondera to the Zimbabwean towns with cylinder-shaped reports.
