Apparently obvious craft hovering without making a sound
Im only reporting this now becuase im no longer worried about it.It's been long enough nobody would remember the incident other than me anyways.I got up to use the bathroom,went back to goto bed and looked out window. Made mental notes of the weather and temprature in order to get an idea what conditions would be like for the weekend.Off to the west i noticed what appeared to be military craft of some sort doing manuevers.After watching for about 3 minutes i noticed there was no way any known craft could make that kind of speed from dead stops and those tyes of angles being flown.I decided it wasnt worth wondering about any longer because i had to get up in a couple of hours to go to work.I went and layed down and went over the weather conditions in my head.I noticed that it also appeared to be a full moon and was attempting to remember the last full moon in order to figure out if it was on the incrrease or the decrease. then i remembered that me and a hunting buddy had a full moon out the previous weekend when we were night hunting. Didnt make sense so i got back up and put my face against the screen to get a better look.I could make out one full globe with a dull shine and the edges of two more in a triangular position. At first i was thinking it was a big weather ballon and it was descending over head. This thrilled me to death and i was hoping to get to see what type of gadgets they used for collecting data and reporting a downed balloon.Looking more careful i noticed that it didnt move at all and there was an outer "rim" this was all one object! A true sense of reality clicked in.This wasnt lil green men! This had to be a military craft with "silent propulsion" it was real! I was standing there looking at it! Then i was terrified, it hadnt moved and any technology of that scope would also be able to know i was standing in my bedroom observing as well. I slowly went back to my bed, looked at my wife and began to pray for our lives. I never told anyone for years other than my wife the followng day. She just glared at me and thought i had a dream. I didnt argue the idea. I didnt want anyone to know... god forbid if i saw something i wasnt sposed to.Amazingly it was probably a few years later that UFOs were big TV stuff and there was also a report of a lady,daughter and her mother in a car out on Dayton hiway in Liberty county a9around the same time i think i saw what i did) who was exposed to hi radiation and had burns to prove it.They swore they saw military heliocopters around this thing. It even bleached the road where it had crossed!!! I knew then that i had did the right thing by not reportiing it or making it into a big deal Or going outside to take pictures or signal the stupid thing to hover down and pick me up! I never made jokes about UFOs again and I never wish to see another one.I do know it was real and im totally convinced it was military. We didnt live but approx. 40 miles from a major airport.Theres no way someone couldnt see these things.This may sound stupid or made up or who knows. After this long a dont really care. BUT! if someone else was around where I lived at that time and saw the same thing, maybe it would help put there mind at ease they werent alone and they didnt imagine it.
