SOB, Dryfly, thats what I saw pass over me and Larry (Buck) Wright while archery hunting one early morning just before daylight back about 1967 in south Texas while sitting up in a fence line mesquite tree. Unreal. The next day the front page of the Corpus Christy Caller headlines were all about all the people and pilots of airliners leaving and landing at the Corpus airport seeing the three UFOs fly over. This is the first time since then that I’ve seen pics of anything similar. Thanks for posting that. You’re welcome. Those are actually pretty common as far as sightings go. Some say they are us but I’m not buying it. I don’t think we can do what these things can do. That is light years ahead of any conventional aircraft’s capabilities.

In the 80's I was floating around on an anti submarine warfare ship about 80 miles east of Okinawa. I saw a huge UFO and so did all of the rest of the ship as it was visible for hours not moving and lit up big time. I would say it was as big as an aircraft carrier. There is no reasonable explanation how such a large craft could hover in one spot for that long. We took many pictures, videoed it, called for it to be intercepted (which never happened) and then ordered to turn in all film to the XO. Oddly years later I saw a picture of it or something just like it in the National Enquirer. Thanks for that story, Rick. I won’t ask how many times you’ve been told about sailors drinking habits.

They're not going down at the rate/quantity they were in WWII, the loss is acceptable IMO. Or even in the late ‘60’s, early’70’s.
