Saw a silver disk pass east to west over me on a sunny September aftermoon
On a Saturday or Sunday afternoon when I was about fifteen I was with my grandfather, his brother-in-law and a couple of kids out looking for pecans. There was a large tree in the open field next to the dirt road we were walking on and he told me to jump the pasture fence and go check it out. As I was looking up at the tree, facing the opposite direction from the others who were still walking along, I saw an object come over the treeline in the distance, some 1/2 mile away. It moved rapidly and silently over the field and was gone in an instant. I yelled at the others and asked them if they saw it also, and they said saw what, we didn't hear anything? That was when I realized that I had not heard any sound either. It was like two silver pie pans with no lip inverted upon each other. It was wobbling side to side as it passed,and could not have been more than a few hundred feet up, depending on the size which I would estimate from the tree it went over to be between 30-40 feet in diameter. We had large planes from Fort Campbell fly over occasionally, they seemed to turn west off our barn roof after we had painted it with silver aluminum paint. I know what they looked like, and sounded like, this was nothing like anything lfying craft I had ever seen.
