Report
was received on February 14, 2019.
Date: Around 1963
Time: Evening.
My
name does not matter, and for obvious reasons will not be mentioned here. I was
an airman assigned to a SAC (Strategic Air Command) base known as Loring
A.F.B in northeastern Maine on or about 1963.
I
was assigned to the "3080th" Squadron (ourselves and the "dogmen"
near the flight line. I, among most others, did not have clearance to the
"instant ", yes; there was indeed an incident.
We
(ourselves and the dogmen, who were the only "troops" out there, were
lounging et al on an evening when our normal activities were
interrupted by whispers and a low type muttering and whispering (buzzing ) of
voices indicating that something was going on (at that time we had
"52's w/atomic warheads up 24/7 and the need for secrecy was obvious (everything
was underground") .
AP's
began streaming in from the flight line and all telling the consistent story of
an incident supra that had occurred. To wit: these men were not prone to
exaggeration or inaccurate opinions or facts, they were specifically trained to
observe and respond to any threat that would interfere with the security and
safety of the base and any conceivable threat that might possibly occur.
They
were very level .com. We intermingled, and all, in concert, told the same
story. The 2nd shift was set to leave their shift, and in the interim, the 3rd
shift was arriving to (push them out, (relieve them) but both shifts were still there. The squadron
commander was called- the base commander was awakened and all were there to
witness the exact same thing.
There
were (2) orbs hovering over the flight line approximately (10-15 ' above the
surface, not "distant objects in the remote sky at night", not a remote seemingly strange apparition,
they were right f.....g there! In fact, they were there in excess of an hour.
There
was no one delirious, screaming or commotion that would accompany lesser men,
just simply emphatic and relatively calm reaction to a very real situation. This
is, in essence, what I was told. I believed them then and I still believed them now, to the best of
my knowledge and belief, etc.
Thank
you to the person for their report.
