2 silver cigar shaped objects N. of Fort Huachuca sometime in '81 or '82. Time of year I'm not sure
I've never reported this but have told skeptical friends and relatives. I had just finished a job in Fort Huachuca servicing a cash register. I ate lunch and was heading back to Tucson. It's been so long ago that the exact times and dates are fuzzy. I never expected I'd have to remember. Anyway, I was just driving down the road back toward Tucson (it's the shortest road between the two so it shouldn't be hard to figure out which one it is) and I caught a view of something out of my peripheral vision to the right of me (east). I started to turn my head to see what it was and before I could turn my view more than 5 degrees, two silver cigar shaped objects crossed the road about 60 to 100 feet off the ground and about 200 feet ahead of me. I tried to follow them with my eyes but they were flying so fast I had to turn my head quickly west to see them. By the time I had turned my head they were 2 small dots on the horizon flying between the peaks of a mountain range probably close to 30 or 40 miles away. It's hard to judge distance in the desert. Maybe it means nothing but it seemed that time slowed down when this all occurred. There were other cars on the road at the time (two lane road) but I don't know if they saw them or not. There was one in front of me and one behind me. It seems that the traffic slowed when this happened but the whole thing happened so fast it was difficult to remember even at the time. When I got back to Tucson, my boss and the secretary gave me grief for taking so long getting back. It was like I lost an hour or two. Anyway, believe it or not. I know it happened.
