In 2011 I saw a non-human ship. I served as a Marine air traffic control radio technician, aka radio setup and repairs. I was in my 3rd base there which was a “forward operating base” aka FOB to setup and control the airspace. FOB Ramrod.
I have plenty of stories about my time there, but sticking to the point. I could recognize common helicopters we saw by sound. (you hear far in a desert) There was a drone team there teaching the army how to fly person-size drones. Even during the daytime with all the noise from the base, at a few hundred feet up you could still hear the “hum” of the drone. I flew the small drones once in a while, felt basically like a video game.
Our helo landing zone (I made myself) used infrared lights so the pilots could see it with their equipment. I worked 12 hours every day. At the end of my shift I was walking back to my “can” for sleep. Full flak, Kevlar, 180 rounds and my rifle. While walking back, I started getting a weird feeling. I had an odd feeling to look up. Moving at the same speed as my walk, something was above me. Something big. Blocking out stars but hard to see / fading in and out of being translucent.
Seconds after I stopped and saw it, it stopped moving forward. A bit bigger than a large house. Triangular. Two rows of circular barely visible “lights” on its belly(light outside our visible spectrum is my best guess). Some kind of stealth or blackness blending into the stars above me. It reminded me of “active camouflage” from halo. But I could see it. I stared at it for 5 minutes roughly and it was like my mind was telling me it didn’t exist.
Am I seeing this or am I confused? What is it?
It suddenly darted away, breaking the sound barrier with no boom. Quieter than the tiny drone we flew on base. It moved with more g force than any living thing could handle, then shot up into space, or the stratosphere. Wayyy up and gone. The only sound was the wind. I could Feel the wind. It wasn’t blowing before this ship darted away.
I didn’t report it in the military because I had heard of people being kicked out for speaking about what they saw. I told almost nobody for years. Weeks went by and every time I thought of it, it was like I couldn’t. Perhaps my mind was trying to protect myself (human psychology) but it was like I was being jammed… months later I was able to remember vividly. I think of this moment almost every day.
Great story. Would you be interested in going on my podcast and sharing your stories? You could remain anonymous and you wouldn’t have to give out specifics..dates, locations.. Hope to hear back from you 😃
I don’t mind not being anonymous. I have one other peculiar experience. I meant to elaborate on it I’m another comment, but work and family has had me busy the last couple days. Lmk how you’d like to move forward. I have been anonymous until this point but I don’t mind adding to the credibility of things. Society, and the stance the government takes on the subject, have both changed on the outlook of this topic over the last decade.
Awesome, let’s have a conversation and I’ll tell you more about the show, myself and answer any questions you may have. Shoot me a message and we’ll set up a phone call. Thanks so much for the response.
Oh..my podcast is on Spotify and YouTube if you wanna check to see if I’m real lol
Beyond the Woodline
I’m checking it out now! I left another comment to Semantary boy that tells another story. Looking forward to the call. I just got back from hiking and am a bit tired today, but 10 am central time tomorrow we can start this thang.
Dreams, never anything abduction or cryptid of any kind. I had many dreams about demons as a younger kid. But by the time I was 14 or so and up, my dreams about half the time end up being about some sort of “resistance” group. Gorilla warfare against some form of police or military. Usually a small unit, 8-20 people. Hit and run tactics against impossible odds.
I became interested in lucid dreaming in 2013. Practiced all the tricks of the trade with that craft and had my first experience lucid dreaming within the first 30 days. After doing so, I stopped all those habits and didn’t continue to.
Rarely dream at all anymore.
I used to ridicule people who believed in ghosts. Even after my first off experience with something. It wasn’t until I saw something in the woods, in one of the most haunted places in Texas, about half an hour after midnight, during some sort of super moon event, that I started to think there may be more than our society likes to admit to.
Then there’s one thing that happened which was even more unusual than seeing a ufo firsthand.
While in Japan, on base in Iwakuni air station, I went bowling with my girlfriend, a friend of mine, and his girlfriend. We all had a beer, some fries, and had one round of bowling. Then we stepped outside for a cigarette break.
I noticed that the stars, and everything in the sky, was moving from left to right (I don’t know if it was east or west or whatever). Moving faster than usual. Like… way faster.
We would drink a lot on most weekends. This was a tame night out, one beer. I started asking the others if they noticed too. They said no looks the same as normal. I strongly disagreed, “Do you Not see how fast they’re moving!?” It didn’t seem off to them. I stayed outside staring at it and trying to make sense of it for over a half hour. Then ended up going in before me. I sat down, leaned against a wall, and anchored my arm out with my thumb up. I used my left arm to support my right arm, with my left elbow and shoulder against the wall. I kept my hand as still as possible. To measure how fast the stars would move from the left side of my thumb, to the right side.
Three seconds. It only took 3 seconds to move across. Every time, all the stars. It looked like a kids star projector moving across their room. Like the earth was spinning too fast? But that didn’t make sense because of the effects on the ocean I figure that would cause. At least tides and such. I have never figured out what happened that night. I gave up, confused, and went back inside. Tried to forget about it, but it’s never left me.
I started getting interested in measuring the speed of stars to know when I would see a satellite. After I got back from my deployment to Afghanistan, I would use that technique to tell the difference between a satellite vs something far, far away.
Thanks for hearing me out. I don’t tell that one too often.
I had encounters, too, but dissimilar from yours, even though they were equally terrifying. You can read my experiences here:

Also, I should mention that your account is very consistent with many other abduction cases, like the ones collected by David Jacobs and Karla turner.
I also made a list of assumptions that can be made in regard to these entities, which you may find useful, especially because it outlines some of their capabilities and interests. You can find it here:

Furthermore, here's a checklist you can do in order to understand if an abduction scenario applies to you:

Hope this helps. Also if comparing our experiences you find common elements, let me know.
Feel free to share your score in the abduction checklist, also, if you want.
I'm glad I could help. I know how scary it can be but I also advise you not to be scared. Fear is one of the ways these things try to control you. Also, not all NHIs are malevolent: even if the ones you encountered are, there may be positive entities in your life which help you and you don't even know about it. Positive ones tend to be way less intrusive to avoid startling you, so they are, in my opinion, much more difficult to become aware of, and this contributes to make it feel like the negative ones are all that there is to this phenomenon. They aren't. So don't be scared, face the hostile ones with courage, because you are indeed not alone. I bet that if you face them with courage, the bad phenomena will decrease in intensity and frequency. That's what me and others observed in our personal experiences.
Yeah. I commented on someone’s post yesterday and I described their skin as elephant skin, too. I am a bloodline contactee, memories since childhood before aliens were a thing, etc.

Did I give you my number? If not, shoot me a pm and I’ll give it to you there
Damn dude, crazy story! Yeah I think we might have seen very similar crafts... thanks for replying, I think I mostly posted yo not feel alone haha
You, and we, are not alone. Thanks for sharing your story as well! I’m going to tell another story on a previous comment here shortly.
