In 1981 either in the spring or the fall it has been so long. I still remember fairly clear what had happened one night at ftcky. The 101 Airborne.Div..had a division exercise and about 28,000 participated. We received a radio call from division HQ that we are halting the exercise and observe the sky for unusual objects. We have been notified that the object is unidentifiable. We were asked to mark our watches and monitor time loss. After the event we should examine our selves for puncture wounds in the nape of our necks and behind the ear lobes. Not long after that about 1 minute a large object appeared in the sky I could not see it at first. It appeared like all the other other stars. The radio operator whom I will not reveal his name from Long Island Ny. and the company commander a capt. who was my age 24 years old at the time, whom I will not reveal his name pointed out the object. It grew bigger and bigger and appeared to be approximately 2000 ft. up. One object turned into 4 maybe 5 smaller objects. They were discs and they came from the larger object. Now I can't figure out if the larger object was a cylinder or a larger disc because of the angle and postion it was in. The smaller disc as I recall glowed green on one side and orange on the other.
I found this account on OFO Clearinghouse ?
but than
I carried a 45 calb. pistol
I was also wearing my battle dress to include the laser tag equipment used in training.
Every man around us was praying to God. I knelt with one knee to the ground near the men facing as bold as I could and prayed 'God make this thing go away, this disc is not of good nature, protect us.
