STRANGE UFO LIGHTS OVER SAILBOAT AT SEA


UFO SIGHTINGS JUST DAYS SHORTLY BEFORE AND AFTER ROSWELL

SIGHTINGS IN THE U.S. FROM JUNE 1,
THRU AUGUST 12, 1947


Do we ever stop to think that if Roswell happened that UFOs would have been in our airspace both before and after that moment. Take a look at 18 reported UFO sightings that took place in 1947 just days before and days after the Roswell crash.

THE DAYS SHORTLY BEFORE ROSWELL

High altitude sighting in 1947

I was in the 7th grade. One summer afternoon I was lying in the hammock in our back yard, when a small dot appeared on the horizon, flying in a straight line roughly from north to south. I was extremely interested in airplanes, being able to identify everything flown by the USAF, and being familiar with the speeds they can attain. This was at the time of the first operational jets, and it was 15 to 30 times faster than a jet. It only took about 8 to 10 seconds to traverse the entire sky, horizon to horizon, a distance I estimated at 25 miles, more or less. The speed must have been 10,000 to 15,000 MPH. I had excellent vision at that time, being a little farsighted. The craft was too high to be able to determine shape, but there was no doubt as to the fact that it was real, and that it was fast!

It was about 2:15 in the morning when my wife woke me from a deep sleep and began to complain of stomach problems. As I was getting out of bed to get her something to drink, I heard what seemed like a strong gust of wind banging the shutters against the house very loudly. As I approached the window to see if it had been raining, a light of some sort, so blinding, appeared out of the darkness. The windows then violently thrashed open and I went completely paralyzed. All I could hear was what sounded like a thousand sirens ringing and my wife screaming in the background. All of a sudden I began to levitate. My wife had also been paralyzed and was floating, in midair right next to me. I cant remember what happened from that point on but when I came to, I found me and my wife outside, in the middle of our yard. When I looked over at my wife I could see she was screaming but I couldn't hear anything coming out. All of a sudden there was a complete silence, and let me tell you, I remember to this day that I have never heard a silence as silent as it was at that moment. Next thing we knew we were transported by a beam of light into what seemed like complete darkness. I couldn't see my wife, I couldn't feel my body, and I didn't know whether I was floating or strapped down. But I could feel this pressure, this invisible force, that was compressing my lungs to the point where I couldn't even breathe another breath. When I tried to scream, nothing came out, I didn't even know if I was breathing anymore. I began to hear my wife gasping for air and once I could hear her, the pressure got stronger and I tried to take a deep breath but inhaled nothing but some sort of fluid that filled my lungs so much I could feel my skin burning as if it was tearing off my body. It was then I began to hear my wife screaming the most awful, horrifying screams and I could do nothing for her. I began to weep as a sharp pain engulfed my entire body. It almost felt as if someone carved from the bottom of my legs through my spine, and up! my body with a dull knife. I have never felt pain so terrible in all my life. I passed out for what seemed like eternity. As I regained consciousness, I'm sure I saw my wife standing in front of me, and it seemed like she was reaching to embrace me, but when I tried to reach out for her, it felt like I had been thrown back and slammed into a brick wall which turned out to be the ground in my yard. I looked over and saw my wife laying next to me motionless. All the pain was gone and I looked over again to see my wife turning. I got up as if I was never even touched or moved or thrown around. I went over to help my wife up, and as I saw the expression on her face, everything inside of me burst because I knew that they had taken her from me forever. My wife died that night and to this day everyone believes that she passed in her sleep because the coroner could find no trace of injury and no sign of trauma that could have caused her to die. I never told this story to anyone.

I was only six, but I was playing jacks in front of my home, I looked up at the ball, and there they were..no noise..I know now, they were traveling in a southeast direction..I can't remember what they looked like, only they were not airplanes or helicopters..It might be associated with the Roswell incident...

I can't remember what they looked like, it bothers me today..I couldn't get my mother to come and look. It happened in the evening, it must have been warm weather, because I was playing Jacks outside, if it was daylight savings time, it could have been as late as 8:00 pm. They were in formation and made no noise. The only reason I saw them is because I looked up at the little ball I was playing with. This happened in 1947..

a very brilliant blue-white object coming towards us lowering above us and hovering over us a few minutes before shooting straight up

A few days after we returned from attending my Grandmother's funeral in North Carolina, my husband and I decided to walk down the dirt road leading to my parents home near the Allegheny River.

The road cut through nearly thirteen acres of corn and vegetables owned by an elderly couple who raised produced for sale. About half way down the road was a little shanty they called their "gardenhouse" where they cleaned and prepared their produce for market.

As we approached the shanty, we met the elderly woman coming up the road, heading for her home on the edge of town. We stopped to talk, she wanted to express her sympathies ad to ask about the funeral.

My husband and I were facing north, the woman facing us, as we talked. We noticed a small bright light coming toward us out of the north. It was moving very slowly, but coming down, growing larger and brighter as it descended. The old woman saw the look on our faces, so she turned and looked up. By this time it was very large and a very brilliant blue-white. The old woman fell to her knees, muttering something in her native tongue, Italian, and "crossing" herself. We were paralyzed with fear! Suddenly, after hovering for a few minutes, motionless, it began to go around in wide circles, then shot straight up into the sky and disappeared.

The woman ran up the road to her home. My husband and I ran to my parents' home, where my husband called the Observatory in Pittsburgh to ask what this "thing" was. They could not give an explanation, but that it "could not have been a plane or weather balloon, nor any invention existing at that time that could have done what this object did."

A few weeks later, reports started coming in on radio news about people in the west seeing strange things in the sky. Some were calling them "flying saucers" and "UFO's," and some were wondering if some other country had invented some kind of new scientific weapon.

We never completely got over our fright and have watched the sky ever since. My husband had been in the Navy in the war. We have see many natural things, such as meteorites, northern lights and man- made objects, but never have seen anything to compare to what we saw that evening.

Note: The week before we saw the strange object, we were on our way to North Carolina to attend my Grandmother's funeral, traveling Route 11 through the Shenandoah Valley. We were traveling straight through, without stopping for the night. During the night we had a flat tire. Th five of us, my parents, my brother, and my husband and I got out of the car while the tire was fixed. While we were standing on the dark road, a very bright meteorite sailed across the sky, leaving a greenish trail and a "swishing" sound.

The object we saw in Pennsylvania a week later did not resemble this meteorite in any way. It traveled slower, at first, then much faster than the meteorite, was a different color, and made no sound even though it got much closer than the meteorite did. The meteorite streaked across the sky, but the strange object moved slowly and then hovered over us before shooting straight up, lightening fast!

2 unmoving round objects side my side like eyes straight overhead above the flew clouds that drifted under them.

They did not move and I don't remember even looking at them the second time. they were white as the clouds but not metallic shining. I was very young like about only 4 years old at the time and I am 55 now this was one of the two times I was a witness of UFOs. These objects did not move enough for me to notice. they were not like the weather balloons that were prevalent during those days but because these were right over head and not like the side view that the weather balloons were. None of the characteristics below fit the objects that I observed. We were poor people that had to raise as much food as we could in the summer months to have enough food for the cold winters we have here. Mom was a mother of 8 and practically alone in her endeavor to raise us. so we spent a lot of time in the large gardens we had at that time. For the most part we ignored the objects and went back to our task of hoeing the strawberry plants growing in that particular garden plot.

Three disks appear in the West, stop at zenith, and proceed Eastward a rapid rate of speed.

While observing the evening sky while fishing on Lake Wisconsin my eye caught a flashing in the clouds toward the West where the sun was setting. Three gold colored disks appeared out of the clouds and slowed to a stop when reaching zenith. They appeared to be looking down at a beautiful scene below of a broad river set in a valley. My grandfather, a friend and myself could detect a slight motion as they stood in rather tight triangular formation above us, kind of wobbling. After some 5 to 10 seconds the lead ship slowing began moving Southeast towards Madison and the others brought up the triangular formation. I would estimate their elevation at about 3-4 thousand feet and they looked about the size of a penny at arms length. They soon accelerated at a tremendous rate and were out of sight on the horizon within 3 to four seconds. It was a daylight sighting I will never forget.

I have told this to people over many years. While on school vacation at my uncles junk yard one evening I noticed on the horizon at dusk a shiny light moving slowly across it. As it moved it began to increase speed until it disappeared. It moved from east to west across highway 19. I often wondered if this could be tied to another sighting soon after. I was always looking for airplanes and had observed many of them and I knew this was something that was far faster than anything I had seen before.

I was only 13 at the time but I will never forget what I watch on that warm July evening I am 69 now.

Its been a long time ago, but I feel I can tell some one that may believe what I watch cross the northern sky going in a easterly direction, the sun was below the horizon not a cloud in the sky. no stars were visible at least in that direction. There wasn't any sound they were of a metallic very shiny looking material from where I stood they would be the size of a full moon 80 or 90 degrees in the air they looked to be flying in a (V) pattern. I've kept this to my self for all these years not knowing who would believe me or think I was nuts only a hand full know my story its the truth

Several years ago,my great uncle told me a story (more like him admitting to something he held back for several years). In 1947, he was with the Army Air Corps Judges office. He was in one of many officers that were charged to represent Army Air man that were being charge with a crime. he was station at Wright_Patterson Army Air base in Ohio. He got a case involving an Air man who had stolen several thousands dollars worth of Army Air goods. He was sent to the air base where the air man was at. Once there he reported to the Military Police station and told them he was there to interview the prisoner.The MP officer on duty knew that my great uncle was from Wright-Patterson and escorted him to a section of the stockade. This section had only one way in and one cell. My great uncle believing that he was to see the prisoner. My great uncle was shocked by what he saw, he told me that he saw a little man (believing that man to be a midget) dressed in an sliver-gray flight suit, the man was very pale (as if he was not out in the sun much) with white hair. The guard told my great uncle that the prisoner refused to eat. My great uncle realized that this was not who he was sent to see left quickly and returned to the MP station. While in Washington DC, I did research and found the old flight plan that show that my great uncle had indeed left Wright-Patterson Army Air base and went to Roswell Army Air base on July-11-1947.

WHILE LOOKING OUT THE SECOND STORY WINDOW OF HIAWATHA COTTAGE AT ELMCREST CHILDREN'S CENTER I SAW A BIG (200 FT.?) CIGAR SHAPED CRAFT OF BURNISHED METAL ABOVE THE LAST ROW OF TREES OF THE ORCHARD BEHIND THE COTTAGES. THE ORCHARD ENDED ABOUT 100 YARDS FROM THE COTTAGE. I HAD LEFT THE FIRST BASE OF THE SANDLOT GAME TO GO UP AND BRUSH MY TEETH. I WAS 13 YEARS OF AGE. I WOULDN'T ORDINARILY LEAVE A BALL GAME TO BRUSH MY TEETH UNLESS FORCED BUT I WAS NOT FORCED OR SUGGESTED TO GO BY ANYONE THERE.

THERE WERE NO LIGHTS OR WINDOWS OR OTHER MARKINGS. NO FINS OR CONTROL SURFACES. IT JUST HUNG SUSPENDED SILENTLY ABOVE THE TREES. I LATER SURMISED THAT THE OCCUPANTS MUST HAVE BEEN INTERESTED IN THE GIANT HORSESHOE SHAPE OF THE CHILDREN'S CENTER WITH ITS 10 TWO STORY COTTAGES AROUND THE EDGE/ROAD AND ADMINISTRATION BUILDINGS AT THE CENTER OF THE SEMI RING AND THE GIANT PLAYGROUND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CURVE.... THE CHILDREN'S CENTER IS STILL THERE AT 960 SALT SPRINGS ROAD.

THIS SIGHTING TOOK PLACE WHEN I WAS A CHILD. I WAS 9 1/2 yrs. old. It was the summer vacation for the school children. WE had been out of school for about 3 or 4 weeks. School was always out by JUNE 15 th. That would make the date about middle of JULY... I was "OUTSIDE " kid. NO one could keep me inside, no matter how they tried. I was out there "BUILDING " TREE HOUSES, or whatever I cold get wood & nails to build. THIS DAY WAS most likely the week-end, because my MOM had sent me to the STORE. I was on my way up the block, (WE lived in the MILITARY PROJECT.) When I noticed I Was Walking IN THE SHADE" & IT was a very hot day, for the BAY AREA. I LOOKED, EXPECTING TO SEE RAIN CLOUDS, BUT NO CLOUDS. THIS PUZZLED me. I STARED STRAIGHT UP IN THE AIR. FINALLY, I FOCUSED MY EYES ON "SOMETHING , that was WAY - WAY - UP THERE. IF I had to guess, I would say , at least 15,000 ft. (now that I have flown , many times in a small airplane.)I could not believe what I was seeing. Confused, I ran down the street, yelling, "WHAT IS THAT ? WHAT IS THAT ?" NO one seemed to listen to me ?? I couldn't figure out WHY ?LATER when I thought about It , I would QUICKLY , CONVINCE MYSELF THAT NO ONE WOULD BELIEVE ME.WHAT I SAW, WAS almost the SAME THING THAT THE MOVIE " INDEPENDENCE DAY " had in it. UNBELIEVABLE, ISN'T IT. I ALMOST FAINTED , WHEN I SAW THAT MOVIE, BROUGHT BACK BAD MEMORIES. SEE ,THAT IS WHY I KNEW NO ONE WOULD BELIEVE ME WHEN I WAS A CHILD . YOU MOST LIKELY DON'T BELIEVE ME, AS AN ADULT....IT was pewter" in color. HUGE, HUGE < HUGE >THE clouds were rolling very fast & the edges would show here, & there ,until I had a complete picture of the COMPLETE SIZE " I ALWAYS THOUGHT I WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO TALK ABOUT IT , SO I DIDN'T .. I COULDN'T SEE ANY "DETAIL" ON IT . IT had to be several "MILES" ACROSS .IT COVER THE WHOLE SKY. OVER RICHMOND.

On July 15, 1947 I witnessed a large saucer-shaped disk outside Las Vegas, Nevada.

We were driving from Las Vegas to Salt Lake City. At 1000 hrs. I was a passenger in the car, and overhead in front of the car I spotted a silver colored disk, which was immediately witnessed by the other three in the car. It hovered in the same place for approximately five minutes and then left the area at an extreme rate of speed. I am reporting this at this time because I have just become aware of your site.

The Object was Huge,Saucer-shaped,beautiful silver,no sound,no exhaust-No lights as it was early afternoon.

My Mother,her Sister, and I were in a trailer parked along Dr, Smyth's Pasture fence, He was a Naturopath and had his treatment room in his home. On a Sunday in July we had gone to Brown's Orchard nearby and got a bushel of pie cherries to can. We had just finished cleaning the fruit and I took the dishpan of waste to throw it out in the barrow pit behind the trailer. I just happened to look down the road about a quarter of a mile and there was this huge,silver,Saucer shaped vehicle about 200 feet in the air,just slowly gliding along as if sightseeing, It was going West. It made no noise and the sky was clear of all clouds, I stood there and thought--"It cannot be a plane. It cannot be a balloon because if it was, it would be going East as the wind was blowing briskly,as the Sparrow nests were being blown out of the Locust trees that lined the pasture fence and the adult sparrows were having spasms.So what is it?"(I felt almost hypnotized) Finally I shook my body and went to the door and called my relatives to"come and see what I see"!) We watched it for just a minute or so and then it took off like a whiz and was out of sight for a seconds,then it came back into view about 10 miles away and then in a few more seconds it was gone out of sight (to the West).Never thought much about it until 2 years later I was in a grocery store in Gooding, Idaho, and was turning a stand full of "Pocket Books" and here was a book"Flying Saucers Are Real"by Donald Keyhoe. I called to my husband and told him to come there, I said, "That's what we saw out from Hazelton". Yes, I bought the Book and still have it stored in my Sons' Shed (I hope) at Fairfield,Idaho where we lived at the time. I was followed by one in 1976 after dark when I was North of Gooding coming to Twin Falls where I lived by now. It was smaller,and had just a steady red light that I could see. It was about 2 blocks away and very low. It was really about even with me and not over 100 feet in the air. I stopped my car ,after pulling to the sides as I was o! n a hill road,Turned off motor and lights and was going to get out of the car and tha object made a right angle turn and was gone East toward Shoshone and out of sight in a few seconds. (I really am glad it did that,now,after hearing and reading about all the Abductions in later years. I have seen strange lights in the sky a couple of times since that cut some funny caper that our planes did not do,but won't go into that. Thanks for reading. I know there are Alien Craft of some kind. Sincerely, ((name deleted)) of Hagerman Idaho. P.S. I'm past 82 but I remember those sightings as if it happened yesterday. Of course Mother and Auntie are gone to a better Land!!

Shape: Chevron
Duration:2-4min ?

The object seen that summer evening was chevron shaped, with a blue glow visable around the edges, moving silently & slowly. N-S.

I hesitate to even report this at this late date - but for the request on CoastToCoast AM last night. Needless to say my memory is very, very sketchy now.

I was out in the street with several other friends, after sunset but before dark (at dusk) when this craft 'appeared' in the sky above. [I don't recall who first sighted it, or name(s)] Aside from not even being sure if it was in 1947 or '48, much less, the month and day, or if it was more chevron shaped or a triangle - but memory favors chevron (I would have said boomerang shape then).

The things that do stick in my mind are that it was moving slowly, with no sound audible. In addition, there was a blue glow all around the edges of the craft, which I think was gray or dull metallic color. It appeared to be about the same size as the moon appears when near the zenith, maybe a bit larger.

Sorry, I don't even recall how it actually disappeared from view -- we may have been watching for a long enough time to exceed our/my teen-age attention span. I do seem to recall that it was traveling parallel to the street we were on, which ran in a north-south direction. (I think it was N15th or N16th St. in San Jose) (Could this have simply been a [US] military craft, so unique appearing, and silent, way back in the late 1940's ?? -- I haven't a clue!)

The object followed us (our car) over 40 miles and then stayed 100 feet off the ground for about 10 minutes. It then went straight up for 200 feet and then went horizontal at a very high speed and then disappeared. It made no sound and although it had a blue glow it did not have beam illuminating the ground. We no longer live in that area but can take someone to the site.

My grandmother woke me up to go to the front house get my uncle to check on the bright blueish light out behind our cottage. I was scared to get wake my uncle so I WENT OUT BACK. I looked up and there was a large disk object hovering over head with multi colored lights on it. The next thing I know I am being woke up to explain how my aunts vegetable and flower garden are totally destroyed. Completely to dried to ash like condition. My grandmother tried to tell them it was something in the sky but they would not listen and called my mother to come get me, I could not stay the rest of the summer. I complained about being sick and having severe cramps but they said I was faking it so as to get to stay. When my mother got there to get me she was real mad at my grandmother for defending me and mad because I was sun burn and blistered and my head was bleeding from a small hole or puncture. She claimed I must have gotten hit with a nail or something. I was 8, 9, or 10 years old because it was the summer my grandmothers brother died. It was on 8th street across from the golf course. I went back to see if I would remember the house in the late sixties early seventies and the house had not been changed. I did not ask to go in back or to see if the garden area to see if the ground was still dead. A short time after my experience my uncle told me about Mr. Arnold and his UFO sighting. My uncle was a pilot and owner of a single engine piper cub. He took me flying once and I was thrilled.

Date of Sighting: 1947-August Time of Sighting: app. 10 PM Location of Sighting: Saranac Lake N.Y. Number of witnesses: 5-6 Number of objects: 6-7 Shape of objects: Disc shaped Full Description of event/sighting: I was about 4 years old, were at our cabin in the Adirondacks and several neighbors were visiting us as we just arrived for our summer vacation. As I was young I was put to bed earlier but was listening to the adults talking in the living room.

We had no electricity or running water so when I wanted to go to the toilet which was an outhouse in the corner of the shed my father escorted me to the shed and went back inside the cabin door to get away from the mosquitoes where he could still see the shed. While in the outhouse every minute or so I could hear a whirring from far away getting nearer then going away. When I ran back inside the cabin and told my father he said it was probably just an owl or other creature.

A few minutes later all the adults were outside the back door as someone had gone to the outhouse and saw this disc shaped object which seemed to be slightly lit up and making a whirring sound coming into view from the south, passing almost overhead and disappearing around Mount Baker.I sneaked out and actually saw one ( one passed every minute or so) before I got caught and was sent back in. We had an old battery radio (tube) and when listening to the local news the next day we heard several reports of the same sighting from the village.
Thank you to the witness for sending in this interesting report.
