City. 49 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,480 It's the main route into the town. 50 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:04,480 And we sat on a beach for a few minutes just to observe the object. 51 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,480 We didn't really think a whole lot about it at the time. 52 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,480 It could have been anything. 53 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:16,480 As we were looking at it, I took the sunlight at the police car on the object. 54 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,480 And it appeared, and it didn't even appear, right? 55 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,480 I didn't say it appeared to come in looking at the water's edge. 56 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,480 You know the water breaks and there meets the shoreline. 57 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:32,480 But that object just came as close as the shoreline. 58 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,480 What would you describe it as? Just a light? Did you see any physical form, officer? 59 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,480 No, sir. No physical form. Neither one of us had a physical form. 60 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:50,480 There was a long, bright, white object, a approximately 8 foot in diameter. 61 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:59,480 That's including the yellow piece that was around it, which was placed at 5 of the white object in the center. 62 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:04,480 How far away was it when it got there? I'd say the closest to you. Is there any way to tell? 63 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,480 I would say it's about 500 feet. 64 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,480 So at 500 feet, it looks to be about 8 feet around you. 65 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,480 I wonder how big it might be in reality then at that distance. 66 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,480 It would be somewhat bigger than would it not? 67 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:22,480 I would say so. I would say so. But at the time, when the object did get that close, 68 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,480 we were sort of in a state of shock, I would say. 69 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,480 What were you hinting to say the least? 70 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,480 It was just unbelievable. I would have never expected it to do that. 71 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:35,480 I would have never toyed with it without sunlight. 72 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:40,480 Well, soon as we did that, we proceeded back towards the blue rock. 73 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:48,480 I tried radio to the dispatcher to get a landing seat to send a call down to verify it, which they did. 74 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:57,480 I think there was a approximately 23 officers for about 20 minutes observing the subject, which was fantastic. 75 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:03,480 Did any of you, the children, try to reattract it with any light, or did you stay away from that? 76 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,480 Well, no. So what happened then? 77 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:11,480 The object went across my heptamon back out of the sea before the other police cars did arrive. 78 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:16,480 But I was still clearly saying that on a heptamon, see at a food and a degree area, 79 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,480 nobody tried to attract it back in again. 80 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,480 But I said, I should have been. 81 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,480 How long did this entire UFO encounter last from beginning to end? 82 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:27,480 One hour. 83 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,480 One hour. Now, what happened? Did it disappear or did you leave the area? 84 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:36,480 Well, it was disappeared. It disappeared for a period of time and took another spot. 85 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,480 So it finally disappeared and didn't come back? 86 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:47,480 Well, the last time it was in Brigham Tain, it disappeared at Inventon, so the last time that I had it carried it, 87 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,480 and it almost fit in the blue rock. 88 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,480 So one night, we got a report of Brigham Tain on the radio. It then sighted it. 89 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,480 How far away was that? 90 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,480 Brigham Tain's about five miles away. 91 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,480 I hope a little bit. That's the next time down the coast. 92 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,480 Well, Brigham Tain is on the opposite side of the landing city as we are. 93 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:05,480 I see. 94 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:07,480 Alright, so whose side are we there? Police officers again? 95 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,480 Well, police officers are in their radio car. 96 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,480 And they described it just as you did? 97 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,480 That's correct. 98 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,480 Have you ever seen anything like this before? 99 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:16,480 Yes, sir, I have it. 100 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,480 You normally operate, what, a one-man squad? 101 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,480 Normally, we operate a one-man corps, and that's correct. 102 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:27,480 Alright, so none of the other officers that you talked to at Tain was before either, huh? 103 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:28,480 None of them. 104 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,480 What do you think you saw, officer? Have any ideas? 105 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:37,480 I tell you, I don't know. I really am an expert in the radio operators, 106 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:42,480 but I can tell you I've seen an extremely bright light that night. 107 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:47,480 Good manoeuvres in a strange manner, 108 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,480 and I've never seen a light that could turn out to a beacon. 109 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,480 But I can't believe that it would come in and go out the way it was doing. 110 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:02,480 Have you reported this incident to any agency that might investigate? 111 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:07,480 For example, here in Chicago, the headquarters are set up for UFO studies, 112 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:11,480 which is directed by Dr. J. Allen Heimlich, the astronomer at Northwestern University. 113 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,480 Have you made any kind of report? 114 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,480 I've talked to agencies as far as Ohio. 115 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,480 I talked to a faculty of six of them. 116 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,480 They said they saw an experience that I heard from them. 117 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,480 They went and saw it, they personally came here to interview me, take pictures. 118 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,480 I haven't stopped since they're nice. 119 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,480 Who are some of the agencies, do you know? 120 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,480 I've seen it. See, to give you all the different letters, 121 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,480 and they were all abbreviated with gigantic names I couldn't remember. 122 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:44,480 I understand that in the area, the coastline had some type of station. Is that correct? 123 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:53,480 That's correct. We have NAFIC, which is one of the biggest experimental air facilities that could possibly date. 124 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,480 Do they have a radar station there? 125 00:07:55,480 --> 00:08:03,480 Yes, they have four radiators in the area, and they said that they could not pick up anything with their radar. 126 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,480 Is it possible this thing was just below their radar? 127 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:07,480 That's correct. That's correct. 128 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,480 It was lower than our high-rises were flying the beach. 129 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,480 Which means it probably was well below the radar being there. 130 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,480 So you had an UFO experience for an hour. A newsman was with you. 131 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,480 I assume you both read the same conclusion. You don't know what you saw. 132 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:22,480 That's correct. 133 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,480 There were some 20 other officers at the height of the incident, but they don't know what they saw either. 134 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,480 I'll tell them a little bit, sure. 135 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:33,480 What is a startup? Is there any type of investigation? 136 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,480 Is there a police department concerned? 137 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:43,480 As far as the police are concerned, is there any of the UFO agencies that want to pick it up? 138 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,480 They do, so... 139 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:50,480 As far as any of the air, Air Force agencies are case guard or anything else? 140 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,480 Do they make their routine search and they find nothing? 141 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,480 I don't think anything continues. 142 00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:00,480 Well, I'll tell you there may be a continuation from the UFO studies center up here in Chicago. 143 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,480 What I'm going to do is, after the air, I'll get some info from you. 144 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:11,480 I'll have Dr. Heineck get in touch with you because you might be able to ask you some questions that some of the other folks have not. 145 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,480 He might be able to give you some idea what you saw. 146 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,480 Now, it did not appear to be any aircraft that you've ever seen before, right? 147 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:19,480 No, sir. It did not. 148 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,480 I've been in the Navy for eight years and I've been at sea many nights. 149 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,480 And I've spent many watches out at sea and I've never seen anything like it. 150 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,480 Is there any type of airfield in the area there? 151 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:36,480 We have a landing city airport which is very small. It handles alligating airways. 152 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,480 How close is that to the incident? 153 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,480 I would say two miles. 154 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,480 Did they see an event from their tower? 155 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,480 I don't believe they were asked to look even. 156 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,480 And you didn't hear about them reporting anything anyway? 157 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,480 They do not have a radar tower as far as I know. 158 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,480 I think they called it an open field or something. 159 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,480 It's a non-controlled field. 160 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,480 I understand.
