Location: Cannon, AFB, New Mexico
Date: January 1976
HBCC UFO Research Note: This report is one of a few sighting reports I have received from ex-military serviceman who worked out of the Cannon AFB. All the men filed reports on seeing numerous unknown objects over the AFB back in January 1976.
I have a list of military people who operated out of the Cannon AFB and I am writing to each and everyone of them in hopes they might be able to shed some more light on this major event. If possible that is.
Lastly, and very important, I am looking for other military service men and women who were at the Cannon AFB who has any knowledge of the UFO events that took place at the base in 1976, would you be so kind as to contact me with any information on the sightings. Always, please keep in mind I will hold your personal information here, and I will not release it to anyone. Also if any other military folks who have had an encounter with something unexplainable over or around a military base, would you be so kind as to contact me with the information. Brian Vike can be contacted at: hbccufo@telus.net or visit my website which is given in the report.
Hello, my name is (removed). I just watched a SciFi program on the 1947 Roswell NM UFO crash and got to researching an incident I witnessed at Cannon AFB in January 1976. In my search I ran across your article http://rense.com/general58/spspc.htm.
I was working the Security Police Desk that night at Cannon and was the one that called the report into Base Operations. A few days later I also spoke with an individual from Washington DC. I don't recall his name or department.
The first report was from Sgt Whitt, who was stationed on the outer perimeter of the flight-line. After that, several reports came in from Base Patrols. I talked someone into handling the Desk for me so I could have a peek.
I was allowed into the flight tower and looked at the objects (about a dozen or so) through a Starlight Scope. Flight Ops was concerned enough to scramble 2 F11's to give chase. Around midnight several of us went up onto the highway overpass and cut the overpass lights for a better view. We watched them until almost dawn.
About that time there were also several burned areas in farmer's fields surrounding the Air Base. I saw two of the circles. The burned circles were approximately 30 feet across and had a dead cow in the center. All the flesh was burned from the cow, but no blood was on the ground or apparently in the cow. Some of the cows had neat, clean burned out cavities in the abdomen about a foot in diameter, and a foot or so deep.
California's, Santa Clarita Valley
Date: Summer - around the 1980s
Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.
I thought you may have interest on the experience my wife and I had. We not only know for a fact but this also proves to us that many governments are withholding the truth. If we saw this, we are confident thousands of other have seen such crafts and probably large numbers of military personnel. My conclusion is that it alters many sociological beliefs such as man invented religion and many others aspects of life and even environmental factors and our impact on it. This altered our reality. We continue to search the skies and hope to have an opportunity to see them again.
It was one warm summer Friday around 10:00 pm in the evening in California's Santa Clarita Valley, located north of Los Angeles. I was brushing the swimming pool with a long pole and attached brush so that the kids could swim the following day. The pole requires you reach up to push down against he walls of the pool. I was standing on a high platform next to the pool about 4 feet over the rest of the pool area. As I reached to the upper end of the pole, I saw a craft approaching the house from the west and heading south east direction. It was about one block away at a low altitude.
I knew right away that it was not a helicopter or plane. It seemed flatter and wider and with lights in a circumference of the main frontal area. I ran towards the house (about 60 feet away) and called my family to see it. Only my wife came out. By that time, it was directly over our house and pool. It was approximately 75-100 feet above us. We stood along side of pool. It made no sound whatsoever, and it was at a complete stopped over us for about 40 seconds. The only motion was a slight wobble and when it moved downward at an angle. During that time, we were frozen in disbelief. It is a strange sensation knowing that what you are seeing is not supposed and very foreign.
The craft was about 75-100 feet or less in diameter. It had small porthole and lights around it in the upper dome section, it was solid, metallic and shiny. There was a dome above it and attached to the body with no visible separation, as if it were molded as one solid craft. The under section was concave towards the center and had two rectangular shapes along side each other and the length of the concave diameter. The rectangular shapes was about 7-10 feet in width and as along as the craft's concave underside center. I also noticed ski like devices on the front and on each side of the front leading edge window. What caught my attention was that the devices were not in the center or the center of gravity for the craft's design but very forward. The skis were S shaped with the top of the S facing forward. Upon the craft leaning in a downward motion we could see a window or cockpit like glass that was situated in the underside of the front leading edge. It was on the front lower edge of the round craft. The rectangular window was approximately 4 feet in height and possibly 12-15 feet in length. There was a glow of soft orange and blue lights from the inside but we could not see anyone or any controls.
It remained at a forward and downward angle for about 10 seconds. We both had the sensation of being watched. As it was angled, I noticed that light was reflecting from the upper section that was not facing the swimming pool lights. Thus, it seemed to generate light through the skin of the craft as the lights that first attracted me faced forward and were much lower than the upper section of the craft.
My wife and I did not say anything to each other during the experience but she kept saying "oh my God" over and over again. The craft then left slowly at 30-40 mph. I jumped on a wall around our property to continue seeing for at least 7-miles. I instructed my wife not to discuss it, to draw what she saw and then we would compare drawings. They matched, although mine had more detail and accuracy.
My background include Group Propulsion Systems and later as an executive with several major computer companies. What we saw was close, real, solid, and a beautiful designed craft. I know from my aeronautical engineering background that mankind has no such technology.
Location: Nova Scotia, Canada
Date: 1994 through 1998
Multiple sightings/encounters with same witness over a extended period of time. I do not wish to give any information as to identity of me or my witness. Also note we both have a scientific education and both have IQ's over 130. Also note that neither of us suffer from any mental illnesses nor do we do drugs what so ever. I am stating this so people may know we are not crack pots. I will break down some of the multiple encounters to explain some of the different types of encounters and some of the effects surrounding the encounters.
The first one started approx the summer of 94. I remember this because we were driving listening to music and it was still light out and the sun was just starting to go down. Almost instantly it was pitch black. Neither of us could recall how the heck the sky turned from starting sunset to pitch black all of a sudden. Now both us being scientifically trained started theories on not paying attention etc., but we both ruled these through scientifically facts are facts we summarized. No shared delusion etc, all ruled out. Simply one second it was day the next second it was night, sunsets don't do this instantly. We then parked the vehicle as we discussed the scientific reasoning further. We noticed a few kids running out of the woods along the tracks in front of us and to our right like they had a fire under their butts. We joked about it and decided we would go see what all the fuss was about, thus we walked down the tracks I would say approx: 1 km.
Note we are usually pretty fearless and not afraid of too much. I will explain how that all changed. At approximately the 1 km mark, we started seeing flashes of green and red light from both sides of the woods, at what we guessed was 10 meters ahead. We both seen this and stated to each other what the heck? We thought that maybe it was kids messing around with flashlights, and maybe they had scared their friends who ran out from the woods previously. Thus we walked ahead to check it out, and when we had come to the spot we heard nor seen anyone. If their had been anyone we would have seen them or heard movement as it was all woods and brush along the tracks.
We again, were puzzled and both looked at each other obviously thinking, what the heck ? I then, out of the corner of my right eye spotted something in the tree line about four feet to my right and about maybe two feet or so tall from my perspective. Note that it was dark, but the moon was out and we had some light, plus I have good night vision. So I assumed it was a animal of some sort (or maybe a kid with the green or red light screwing around ) so I walked to it's direction quickly. I was shocked that it could move so quickly and was seemingly bipedal, but was not human or a 14 year old kid.
Of course now I was even more stunned, and of course surprised because what I thought was a animal or more so some teenager turned out to be something entirely unexpected but unknown. This is where my logic should have overcame both my friends and my fearlessness and caution mode should have kicked in, but curiosity had gotten the better of us. I remember saying to my friend, what the heck was that, it wasn't a kid or a animal. It moved fast and I mean fast. I watch alot of wild life shows and have never seen any animal move that fast. We then spotted one big orange circular light in the sky surrounded by 5 smaller solid white strobe type objects in the sky which circled the bigger main light in random orbits. Note that the bigger orange light was stationary and approximately 1/2 a km away max, and at approximately a 34 degree angle from us in the sky. None of them made any noise, thus we knew it could not be aircraft because at that distance if it was any type of aircraft at all we would hear it. It sat in the sky at that relative position ( after it slowly moved to that position earlier) for approximately 15 minutes.
We decided that we should investigate, of course being scientific and curious is not always a good thing. We were going through the woods, got to the farmers field where in the approximate area the lights were. I said hi to the cows (lol), there was about nine of them.
We then witnessed the lights at what seemed ten feet above tree top level move across the treetops very close, still making no noise. They were moving away from us and their movement was avoidable, not a straight line moving fast just above the treetops going right to left as though dodging something. Then they had descended into the woods at the opposite end of the field tree line. Both my friend and I were kind of amazed at what it could be and thought it was kind of interesting because we were witnessing something impossible to humans, and science as we knew it. We contemplated going to the spot where the lights had gone down, but we did not have too much time to contemplate this as we began to hear a high pitched, but seemingly faint tracking noise, like a beep repetitious from the direction of the forest the lights had gone down. Note we were in the country so we couldn't figure out a logical source of the sound. The beeps were every three seconds and continuous. If you imaging a animals radio collar that is being tracked, that is what it was like, but a higher pitch that was distinctive.
This would not be the first time we were to hear that unforgettable sound. That's another story. As we were bewildered and talking very low about the sound, we noticed it began to come louder and louder and seemingly moving toward our very position. The cows all started freaking out and became extremely uneasy. The closer the sound came the more uneasy the cows became. Note that they were extremely quiet prior to this, even with us near by. We both decided that maybe this was a good time to go and get the heck out of there, as by now the sound was very close and moving closer, shifting position to our left flank in what seemed like a circling maneuver. This is when we decided a good option was leaving quickly, better safe than sorry. As we ran the sound followed and was right behind us, maybe 20 feet away. We noticed the sound still close behind us and ran as fast as we could with the sound still hot on our 6.
We decided to jump a barbed wire fence, to hopefully slow whatever the heck it was down, and were about half way back to the car. This did not work as it was still in close pursuit, beep, beep, beep, obviously we were scared at this point and fear adrenaline or whatever it was kicked in and we ran all the way to the car and got the heck out of there, still with the sound in close pursuit all the way to the car. My friend left a streak of rubber that is probably still there to this day. To this day we have discussed our initial whatever it was, and till this day we have no scientific explanation. I will post other events later on. This was our initial encounter of what became many over the next 4 years.
Location: Mississippi
Date: Summer of 2001 or 2002 ?
Time:
The red/orange ball was seen as we were driving back from South California to Texas. We think it was in Mississippi. It was the Summer of 2001 or 2002. It was traveling south to north at what must have been at an unbelievable speed. It was higher than a plane near it, we estimate it was about the size of Rhode Island, at least. We said, "What was that"?! It had soon rushed past our view. It was at night. Amazing ! Do you have any history of these balls ?
Location: Prairie Village, Kansas
Date: Two or three years ago ?
Time: Evening
I wanted to relate one more incident where I was much closer to the object and in a better viewing position. This was two or three years ago. I notified a national UFO group (it may have been MUFON) by phone right after I got home. They weren't the least bit interested! And this was the closest I've ever come to seeing an airborne craft that defied the norm. I was only five blocks from my home and stopped at a traffic light. As I was an amateur astronomer when I was an adolescent, it is my habit at night to look up at the sky, I suppose to make sure everything is still in order!
Looking up straight through my windshield, I saw what appeared to be a triangular object, delineated by lights at its corners. It was flying at an extremely low altitude, certainly not too far from being directly overhead. It's hard to imagine a plane having permission to fly that low.
While waiting for the light to change, I quickly got my bearings on the object, thinking it must be coming toward me, but it wasn't. It was standing in one place, hovering, if you will! What kind of triangular aircraft can do that? What a time to not own a video camera! Of course, the light changed, and as I was next to my old high school, I headed for its parking lot. It sits at the highest elevation from there all the way to the Missouri River in Kansas City. Just for reference, my high school is called Shawnee Mission East in Prairie Village, Kansas, which is a suburb of Kansas City, Missouri. I was certainly hoping the object would still be hovering, but by the time I got out of the car in the parking lot, it was flying away very, very slowly to the northwest, toward what would be Kansas City, Kansas and still at low altitude.
As I recall, I could make out an engine type of sound as it flew away, though it didn't make much noise at all at that point, and I heard nothing when it was hovering above me. Like the sighting I described to you a couple of days ago, the feeling I had in viewing these two crafts was one of command, theirs, not mine. After seeing the object I'm describing in this report as it flew away after having stood motionless above me, I felt it owned the sky, like a bird of prey at the top of the pecking order. It was as if it was on a sightseeing tour, surveying all that was below. What does someone possess that can hover like that and then slowly fly away? This was my first experience with something like this, and if I wasn't a believer in unidentified flying objects before (which I was), I certainly was then!
Location: North Of Amsterdam, Holland
Date: November 1992
Time: 9:30 a.m.
I saw a white/orange flickering bright small light a little above the horizon in north direction outside my window in the morning when I was in laying in bed. The first thing that came to me was, is it a helicopter, because after seeing it hanging still, it was straight coming my way. Then I was thinking it must be an airplane, than it must be a very fast airplane (military fighter). As it got closer it went sideways and looked like a very flat orange shaped disk flying at an incredible speed passing by. I realized it a second later, yes; to late, walking to the window to see something more of it, because there was no sound.Ever since I am more differently interested in all kinds of UFO material and still inspired to making art.

Eyewitness UFO Audio Accounts On CD (Free Upcoming Audio Reports For Buyers)
I will be doing more interviews this week for the CD. (70 Eyewitness UFO Audio reports on CD)
Purchase The CD, & All Upcoming Eyewitness Audio Reports For Free!
HBCC UFO Research Note: As many of you know I had to remove the large number of eyewitness audio reports from the site due to them taking up a huge amount of bandwidth as the mp3 audio clips were a big success.
In other words thousands upon thousands of people who came to the website really enjoyed listening in to the eyewitnesses tell in their words about what they saw, and what took place.
I did not want to remove them, but as I mentioned, it was going to run the costs up for the site. So I created a CD with all the audio clips on it and so far this has been a big hit with many. I decided that if anyone purchases the CD, all upcoming eyewitness audio reports will be given to the buyer free. What I will do, is upload any and all new audio interviews to the website, and then email out a link to everyone who has bought the CD, and from that link they will be able to download the new eyewitness accounts at no cost to them. This way no one will miss anything and there are some amazing reports coming up. Purchase details can be found here:
The below link will take you to how to order your own CD, entitled The Vike Report (Audio Clips Collection).
