Full Description of Event/Sighting: Hello, I wanted to relate a close encounter that a close friend of mine had in the Summer of 1987 in Nova Scotia, Canada. He was on a golf course with a friend of his, they were playing a round of golf when they noticed two silver disc shaped craft approaching over the golf course.
The craft were approximately 40 to 60 in diameter and had the appearance of being constructed of polished putter.
The center of both craft seemed to have a metal ring that rotated in a clockwise direction. My friend also related to me that the objects moved in perfect unison at all times during this sighting.
He then went on to report that as the craft approached 3 CF-18 jet fighters were trailing them at some distance and seemed to be trying to intercept them. He went on to report that the CF 18 fighters changed formation as they came relatively close to the disc shaped craft, one plane seemed to assume a point position and the other 2 planes fell back.
Both of the disc shaped craft the shot across the golf course and stopped above my friend and his golf partner for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. He then reported that the disc shaped craft were 60 to 80 feet over his head at that time.
He noted that there was a revolving set of lights under the craft and that he and his friend seemed to be surrounded by static electricity, as well as the fact that the both craft did not make a sound except for a very, very slight humming noise.
He went on to report that at that time that the 3 CF-18 jets seemed to be closing on the 2 disc shaped objects which shot straight up stopping in unison instantaneously before shooting to the right, making the perusing jets look like they were standing still.
I still remember when he related this event to me, as he was holding a cup of tea in his hand and he had became very animated and his hand was shaking.
He developed leukemia within 6 to 8 months of the sighting and passed away about 6 months later, he was of the opinion that his illness may have been caused by his relatively close contact with the disc shaped craft.
The incident that I have described to you, stimulated my interest in the UFO field and I have been following developments since 1987. The Shag Harbour incident took place not too far from my local area, as well as a reported UFO landing site about 2 km away from my home.
In your study of the UFO field have other people who have come into relatively close contact with craft become sick or had other side effects. The weather conditions on the day of the event were excellent, clear blue sky unlimited visibility and very warm.
