walter's photos using the model and

22
00:01:27,990 --> 00:01:26,479

about the group or whether the soldier's

57
00:02:48,070 --> 00:02:46,160
involvement had any bearing on the case

58
00:02:50,710 --> 00:02:48,080

information came out in an article in

to gulf breeze to meet an alien craft

78
00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:32,720
according to her it was supposed to be

79
00:03:37,350 --> 00:03:35,120
the rapture time that same day the

80
00:03:40,229 --> 00:03:37,360
northwest florida daily news carried the

81

headline six awol soldiers say they

82
00:03:44,869 --> 00:03:42,879
aimed to kill the antichrist according

83
00:03:47,589 --> 00:03:44,879
to the article the information came from

84
00:03:49,750 --> 00:03:47,599
an unofficial military newspaper two

85
00:03:51,910 --> 00:03:49,760
days after the soldier's arrest they

86
00:03:54,309 --> 00:03:51,920
were honorably discharged from fort knox

87
00:03:57,429 --> 00:03:54,319
kentucky after no evidence was found of

88
00:03:59,509 --> 00:03:57,439
espionage as punishment for being awol

89
00:04:01,509 --> 00:03:59,519
and forging leave papers all were

90
00:04:03,830 --> 00:04:01,519
reduced to the lowest rank and had half

91
00:04:06,149 --> 00:04:03,840
a month's pay forfitted the soldiers

92
00:04:09,190 --> 00:04:06,159
remained silent for two years then in

93
00:04:11,270 --> 00:04:09,200
1992 one of the soldiers vance davis

94
00:04:13,589 --> 00:04:11,280
spoke to the press in order to clear up

95
00:04:17,189 --> 00:04:13,599
the facts of their adventure according

96
00:04:19,430 --> 00:04:17,199
to davis as reported in a july 27 1992

97
00:04:21,349 --> 00:04:19,440
associated press article they had not

98
00:04:23,510 --> 00:04:21,359
traveled the gulf breeze to meet jesus

99
00:04:25,670 --> 00:04:23,520
christ in a ufo which was another

100
00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:25,680
rumored reason for their being there he

101
00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:27,840
is quoted as saying how ridiculous can

102
00:04:33,030 --> 00:04:30,880
you get jesus christ is jesus christ why

103
00:04:35,110 --> 00:04:33,040
would he come in a flying saucer the

104
00:04:37,189 --> 00:04:35,120
real reason davis gives for the groups

105
00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:37,199
being awol is that they were following

106
00:04:41,590 --> 00:04:39,360
advice given by spirits talking through

107
00:04:43,110 --> 00:04:41,600
a ouija board the group was told that

108
00:04:45,430 --> 00:04:43,120
their help would be needed during a

109
00:04:47,350 --> 00:04:45,440
coming world cataclysm it was also

110
00:04:49,670 --> 00:04:47,360
because of a ouija board message that

111
00:04:52,230 --> 00:04:49,680
davis was coming forward according to

112
00:04:54,230 --> 00:04:52,240
him the race riots in los angeles were a

113
00:04:55,830 --> 00:04:54,240
signal for the group to go public and

114
00:04:57,670 --> 00:04:55,840
the others would follow him depending on

115
00:04:58,710 --> 00:04:57,680
the public reaction to what he was

116
00:05:00,070 --> 00:04:58,720
revealing

117
00:05:02,710 --> 00:05:00,080
davis said the group had been

118
00:05:05,189 --> 00:05:02,720
experimenting with esp tarot cards and

119
00:05:07,670 --> 00:05:05,199
other esoteric practices to see if there

120
00:05:09,670 --> 00:05:07,680
was something actually to it they hit

121
00:05:12,629 --> 00:05:09,680
brick walls until they tried a ouija

122
00:05:15,430 --> 00:05:12,639
board and someone showed up according to

123
00:05:18,870 --> 00:05:15,440
davis spirits predicted the gulf war in

124
00:05:20,790 --> 00:05:18,880
the 1990 iran earthquake then in may

125
00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:20,800
they were told to leave the army and

126
00:05:24,310 --> 00:05:22,400
help guide people through the coming

127
00:05:26,629 --> 00:05:24,320
world changes that would involve the

128
00:05:28,870 --> 00:05:26,639
second coming of christ in the rapture

129
00:05:31,189 --> 00:05:28,880
in the meantime said davis the group

130
00:05:33,510 --> 00:05:31,199
might write a book follow up on a movie

131
00:05:35,670 --> 00:05:33,520
deal or consider doing a commercial for

132
00:05:37,909 --> 00:05:35,680
parker brothers manufacturers of the

133
00:05:40,150 --> 00:05:37,919
ouija board while davis may have

134
00:05:42,390 --> 00:05:40,160
ridiculed the idea of christ arriving on

135
00:05:45,029 --> 00:05:42,400
earth in the ufo there is evidence that

136
00:05:47,510 --> 00:05:45,039
ufos were at least a part of his mythos

137
00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:47,520
if not that of the entire group in the

138
00:05:53,749 --> 00:05:50,960
1995 book unbroken promises written by

139
00:05:56,309 --> 00:05:53,759
davis with brian bladshaw davis reveals

140
00:05:59,029 --> 00:05:56,319
that he took silva mind control classes

141
00:06:01,350 --> 00:05:59,039
and mastered self-hypnosis techniques

142
00:06:03,670 --> 00:06:01,360
he claims that while in a trance he met

143
00:06:06,629 --> 00:06:03,680
a green-skinned female alien dressed in

144
00:06:09,029 --> 00:06:06,639
yellow named kia according to vance she

145
00:06:10,950 --> 00:06:09,039
told him that she came from a planet 45

146
00:06:13,270 --> 00:06:10,960
light years away from earth that had

147
00:06:15,670 --> 00:06:13,280
been destroyed by another race

148
00:06:17,670 --> 00:06:15,680
her people called the chiassians were

149
00:06:19,909 --> 00:06:17,680
traveling on five spaceships carrying

150
00:06:22,150 --> 00:06:19,919
three thousand individuals each and they

151
00:06:23,990 --> 00:06:22,160
were coming here to help the alliance

152
00:06:26,070 --> 00:06:24,000
protect the human race

153
00:06:28,390 --> 00:06:26,080
kia's husband had died and she had taken

154
00:06:31,590 --> 00:06:28,400
his place as commander of the armada due

155
00:06:33,270 --> 00:06:31,600
to arrive on earth in 1992 kia became

156
00:06:35,350 --> 00:06:33,280
davis's guardian

157
00:06:37,909 --> 00:06:35,360
adding to the possibility of a ufo

158
00:06:40,230 --> 00:06:37,919
connection was the fact that the 21st

159
00:06:43,270 --> 00:06:40,240
annual mufon symposium was held in

160
00:06:47,110 --> 00:06:43,280
nearby pensacola florida from july 6th

161
00:06:49,350 --> 00:06:47,120
to july 8 1990. stan johnson a friend of

162
00:06:52,309 --> 00:06:49,360
one of the soldiers kenneth beeson is

163
00:06:54,550 --> 00:06:52,319
quoted in the july 19 1990 pensacola

164
00:06:56,790 --> 00:06:54,560
news journal as saying that beeson had

165
00:06:58,950 --> 00:06:56,800
mentioned going to pensacola for a ufo

166
00:07:01,189 --> 00:06:58,960
convention one of the speakers at the

167
00:07:02,710 --> 00:07:01,199

168
00:07:05,110 --> 00:07:02,720
wife francis

169
00:07:07,670 --> 00:07:05,120
georgia mufon state section director

170
00:07:10,230 --> 00:07:07,680
larry heberbrand wrote a letter to mufon

171
00:07:12,070 --> 00:07:10,240
director walt andrus saying that he got

172
00:07:14,309 --> 00:07:12,080
the information from a doctor at fort

173
00:07:16,870 --> 00:07:14,319
benning that the group believed that ed

174
00:07:18,550 --> 00:07:16,880
walters was the antichrist if true

175
00:07:20,870 --> 00:07:18,560
walters was fortunate that none of the

176
00:07:22,469 --> 00:07:20,880
group took any action against him while

177
00:07:24,870 --> 00:07:22,479
the beliefs and actions of the gulf

178
00:07:27,029 --> 00:07:24,880
breeze six may seem bizarre this wasn't

179
00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:27,039
the first time esoteric beliefs were

180
00:07:30,469 --> 00:07:28,960
associated with the army intelligence

181
00:07:32,390 --> 00:07:30,479
unit in augsburg

182
00:07:35,189 --> 00:07:32,400
sergeant lynn buchanan was stationed

183
00:07:37,510 --> 00:07:35,199
there in 1984 when he experienced what

184
00:07:40,070 --> 00:07:37,520
he described as a psychokinetic

185
00:07:41,990 --> 00:07:40,080
computer-related anomaly according to

186
00:07:44,309 --> 00:07:42,000
him this caught the attention of major

187
