Tippecanoe County Sheriff Smokey Anderson Says Indiana Lights Are Flares
HBCC UFO Research: After contacting the Grissom AFB in Indiana asking
about if they were carrying out any type of exercise that may account for
the strange sightings reported by many over the orange lights, the AFB
tells us nothing pretty much. Yet the Lafayette (Ind.) Journal and Courier
contacted the Tippecanoe County Sheriff and spoke with a Smokey Anderson
who had received information from the Miami County Sheriff who reported
the lights to be flares from training exercises done at Grissom.
Mr. Vike,
I checked with Tippecanoe County Sheriff Smokey Anderson about the
orange-colored lights you said have been spotted near Lafayette and other
nearby towns. He said that the Miami County sheriff said the lights are
from flares from training exercises done at Grissom. Grissom, however,
will say that they are not doing training exercises if they are contacted.
Anderson, who lives in southern Tippecanoe County, also spotted the lights
about a year ago and made some calls then. He explained them as these
flares that shoot off in a circular motion (forgive me for the
description, but it's best explained in person). It's used to tell an
aircraft which direction to head, he said. I hope this explanation helps.
Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.
Thank you to the Lafayette (Ind.) Journal and Courier for their help.

Woodlawn (Ottawa), Ontario Object Came Together & Lit Up The Area
Date: 1963 or 1964
Time: Between 10:00 p.m. and Midnight.
Location of Sighting: Just west of Ottawa along the Ottawa River
Number of witnesses: 6 to 8
Number of objects: 5
Shape of objects: No bigger than stars to begin with.
Well, this was quite a while ago and it seems that everyone who was there
had a slightly different account. So here is mine.
Like I mentioned above this was around 1963 or 64 so I would have been 14
or 15 years old. It was summer, well after sunset. I remember that my
parents were out so it was just we teenagers out in the back yard cooling
out over the Ottawa River. You know talking and goofing around as teens
do. It was not cloudy and there was no moon so all the stars were visible.
I can't remember who exactly noticed at first, but it was mentioned that a
star had moved and then come to a stop. What? Yea sure was the general
reaction, but we all stared upwards and began looking. Sure enough there
was movement and stoppage again and we all began to see this. Then it was
noticed that there was another, which we all at the time thought were just
stars until they moved and stopped.
Over a bit of time we managed to count at least five of these objects
doing the same. I remember at first these were all pretty well high up in
the sky. Then they began to get further apart over time in their movements
and moved down closer to the horizon and out over the river. All this time
staying the same in size and no brighter than your average star. There was
no sound that we could hear, so all this had us fairly fascinated. Move
and stop, move and stop, all of us trying to figure out what we were
looking at. After perhaps half an hour or so watching, I recall two of
these moving closer together out over the river to the northwest. This is
when it really got interesting because these two objects came together and
as they appeared to touch they lit up the entire area. Not like it was
daylight but I remember it was like a huge and very bright flood lamp.
Bright and white. This also gave me an idea as to how far away it was from
us. The direction we were looking was towards where there is an island and
that particular island was known to us at the time as Six Mile Island. It
was named this because of the distance it was from where I lived and grew
up at the time. Its real name is Aylmer Island. So this illumination was
at least six miles from us because it lit up the island on the river and
the opposite side of the river just behind the island and everything in
front of it, the river and towards us.
It did not remain lit up for very long, but long enough to scare the heck
out of all of us. I remember all who were there, me included, giving out a
yelp and running like scared rabbits for the house. Wondering what this
was all about we began to make some phone calls and of course never got
any satisfactory answers. The call we made to the Ottawa airport was the
most interesting when we were told that there were helicopters out waiting
for some special cargo plane from Toronto. We had explained what we saw
and that these made no sound at all, but that was there answer to us. As I
said at the beginning we all seemed to have slightly varied accounts. My
sister's account was the most interesting though because she said she did
not remember when the two came together and illuminated the whole area. I
must say, I have been interested in watching the skies ever since and have
seen some curious things, most much more recently.

Tacoma, Washington Black Rectangular Oddity
Date: Fall of 1991
Time: Afternoon
Location of Sighting: 1 mile SSW of the Southwest end of Hoods Canal in
Puget Sound.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Rectangle
While sailing on Puget Sound, near the South end of Hoods Canal, I sighted
an unusual black rectangle located due south of my location. I was under
full sail in my 21' San Juan racing hull, and was very attuned to my
surroundings, especially since I was sailing solo. I luffed up my boat
(slowed it down) and watched the odd-looking object in the water, about
200 yards away from me.
I'd estimate its length to be 90 to 100 feet long and 2 1/2 feet tall. It
was, I can only best describe it, andintense' black colour and did not
appear to bob around on the water. This struck me as very odd, since there
was about a 3 foot 'chop' in the waters, with a few whitecaps showing,
wind at around 14 M.P.H., gusting to 25 M.P.H.
It was cloudy with a few sun-breaks here and there, one of which
'illuminated' the area where this strange thing was located. I could see
no reflections from seawater on its hull, meaning that the black rectangle
appeared to be dry. It remained stationary, had no wake or waves splashing
on it and had no conning tower, fins, protuberances, lights etc.
If there were any sound (s) produced from this craft, I did not hear any
thru the hull of the sailboat or in the air (the wind and waves were the
only sounds I could hear).
I watched the object for 1 minute and 15 seconds, and then decided to
quickly go below deck and get my binoculars. This action took less than 10
seconds, but, to my dismay, the object was nowhere to be seen when I
emerged. I spent about 15 minutes looking for it, sighting nothing
unusual.
I've seen many odd things while at sea, but never anything quite like the
above. I have no idea what it was, other than the fact that it was not an
animal or any known (to me) submarine craft. There were no other boats in
the immediate vicinity - the closest was about 3-4 miles away, so I'm the
only one I know to have seen this black rectangular oddity.
Additional Information:
I would have had to seen it through the binoculars to really give you a
100% answer on your question; my definite impression, obtained from about
3 feet above sea level, was that this thing was actually "in" the water,
as I could not see any water or features beneath it.
There is a Navy torpedo-testing base very nearby this area, approx: 2 or 3
miles away. I'd sailed right through this area on over 90 trips, under
varied sea and weather conditions both days and nights.
When they're testing underwater stuff, there's almost always Navy &/or
Coast Guard activity, in my experience. There was no such activity on the
day that my sighting occurred, that I was aware of. I sailed right past
the test base within 40 mins. Off my sighting, proceeding through the
waters until I reached Poulsbo, Wa. which is a nautical 'dead-end' (one
way in, one way out) .
It's possible that it was some sort of Navy project, but it behaved as if
it was suspended precisely in one place, unaffected by wind, tide or
waves.

Centennial, Colorado Glowing Ball Of Light
Date: September 10, 2001
Time: 5:30 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Glowing ball of light.
I was chatting to a neighbour outside when I happened to look up at the
sky. I noticed a glowing ball of light moving from the northwest, it was
not very high in the sky, maybe a few hundred feet or so. I yelled "Look!"
and she also looked up, called her daughter who was playing down the
street. She ran to us and we were watching the sphere in awe. It clearly
was not a shooting star, as it moved very slowly in an arc over our heads
and disappeared from sight. It made no sound at all.

Cedar Rapids, Iowa A Blue/Green Ball Of Light
Date: 2005?
Time: Between 10:45 and 11:00 pm.
I swear to the almighty lord Jesus that I saw a spaceship in Cedar Rapids,
Iowa last year in 2005. I was in a car with some friends. I think that it
was between 10:45 and 11:00 pm. when my uncle said (what the heck is
that). I said what are you talking about, he said look up. I looked up and
saw a blue/green ball of light in the air it moved in a circular formation
and then moved from left to right, and flew straight up and zipped off
leaving behind a blue streak of light behind.

Throckmorton, Texas V Shaped Transparent UFO
Date: October of 2005
Time: Evening
Message: I saw a V-shaped, transparent UFO in October of 2005, in
Throckmorton, TX, a small, rural west Texas town. I was looking for
shooting stars, and instead, I saw a 5-star upside-down V, gliding across
the nighttime sky. I followed it as it moved, and as I turned around to
keep following it, it disappeared right before my eyes! My cousin, who was
with me, witnessed this as well.
At other times, I have had other encounters, seeing strange, slow moving
crafts that would come at a standstill, and then zoom off at an angle out
of view. All of these sightings have been in the exact same town. Other
people in that town have seen strange things like that as well.
I have heard about the military making crafts that would almost mimic the
slow moving, the hovering, but I do not think that the military would have
a craft that would be able to blend in with its surroundings!
Do we even have the technology for that?

Chandler, (Gaspesie Quebec) A White Glowing Globe
Date: March 6, 2006
Time: Approx: 4:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 6
Number of objects: 1 or 2
Shape of objects: Round to cigar shaped
I was having tea in the kitchen with my biological mother (We met when I
was 25) & I wanted to ask her about UFO sightings she had the night I was
conceived. I looked out the window and noticed the light in the sky, like
something falling, but it moved slow enough across the sky and disappeared
behind the trees and houses. It took about 4 or 5 minutes to fade out of
sight.
I took a few photos, the best I could out of my upstairs bathroom window.
I had a dream the day before the sighting of a big white orb floating down
to earth.
It looked like a white glowing globe with a map of the world outlined on
it in sparkling diamonds. I ran in to get my camera and went back out to
take photo's and in the sky were little twinkling golden stars which moved
about and formed into a lions head then into the shape of the sphinx, then
I was abruptly woken up.
I stuck the photos into my photo bucket account and you can get a hold of
them at the following link. (The 1st photo of the odd streak in the sky
with the sunset is from last year in February almost 1 year before, the
rest are dated).

East Of Battle Ground, Indiana Another Witness Confirms Orange Lights
Date: March 29, 2006
Time: Approx: 9:00 p.m.
Message: This is an addition to your report of lights in the Kokomo
Indiana area. They were also visible on Wednesday, March 29, 2006 around
9:00pm from Battle Ground Indiana. They are due east and fairly distant.
I've seen them before as well, sometime within the last 2 years. I didn't
take note of the exact date but it was during an outdoor program I was
doing either on a Friday or Saturday evening between 7:30 and 8:30pm. The
entire audience started to make comments and point over my head. Lights
off in the east hanging in midair, and then just going out. I joked about
the mother ship coming back for me, but just assumed they were some sorts
of flare from the AFB off that way.
Next time we see them maybe we'll try to track them down. (East of Battle
Ground, south of Kokomo)

Vernon, British Columbia Fast Travelling Orb
Date: April 2, 2006
Time: 9:30 p.m.
Hi Brian, at 9:30 pm tonight I was outside enjoying the clear night and
bright sliver moon when I noticed movement from the south sky. It was an
orb, under satellite height and moving a little faster than a satellite.
It brightened for a second to a white brilliance, and then dimmed back to
the brightness of a satellite. As I tracked its direction toward the WNW
it accelerated in a straight line appearing to "take off" like a plane off
the runway heading away from the atmosphere.

Hamilton, Ontario Hovering Disk Shaped Craft
Date: April 3, 2006
Time: 7:45 a.m.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Disk
Hey, my name is (name removed), I live in Hamilton, Ontario Canada. I have
witnessed 3 UFO sightings over the past couple of months over Lake
Ontario. In Hamilton there is a street called Burlington Street, which
goes, straight towards the lake, so you can see a full view of Lake
Ontario while you are driving. I drive this way every morning around 7:30
- 7:45ish. My first sighting happened about 3 months ago, when me and my
friend were driving down Burlington Street at 7:45, there were clouds
covering the lower part of the lake, but it was a bright sky above the
clouds, now all these sightings have happen while I was driving, so we
only caught glimpses of them. All of a sudden we saw something shoot
through the clouds and into the sky, leaving behind a straight line in the
clouds. We thought it was really weird. The second sighting happens at the
same time, 7:45, while we were driving on Burlington Street again. It was
a clear sky and we saw just a little swiggle in the sky, it was not
moving, just sitting there. I have seen video of the exact same sighting
before, it was very weird. But today's sighting topped everything, as we
were again driving down Burlington Street and looking at the view of the
lake, I thought I saw a bird gliding into the wind, but then I realized,
it wasn't moving. My buddy and I started to take a closer look; it was a
craft hovering over the lake. It was in a disk shaped form! Just sitting
there watching all the cars going by on the highway. I know what I saw,
and it was for sure a disk. I know that there is a lot of sighting over
Lake Ontario, do you know why I know. I've witnessed three of them. If you
have any questions please get back to me.

Playa Del Rey, California Unusual Manoeuvres For Triangular Lights
Date: April 3, 2006
Time: 1:35 a.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Triangle
I was having a cigarette, looking for satellites because it's a clear
night. I saw three lights in a triangle shape, higher and moving faster
than any plane I've ever seen before. I see a lot of planes as I live next
to LAX. But these made no noise, not even a delay of noise. As they went
towards the horizon heading west, it change shape, and two lights went
left (south) and disappeared. The third stayed straight and disappeared.

Cardiff, UK Lights Seen To Dance Around In The Sky
Date: April 3, 2006
Time: 11:45 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Shapes indefinable (blurred)
At 11.45pm (3 April, Monday) I saw something that I never believed I
would. I was in the backyard having a cigarette and looking at the stars
and the moon. I saw in the sky what at first I thought was a plane, until
it changed direction at such an acute angle, almost going back in the
opposite direction. At this point it was joined not by one but two more
"lights" (they were very blurry, orange in colour, although there was a
lot of light pollution) they danced around each other for, well it could
have only been seconds, and then moved off in a diagonal formation. I was
confused at first and shocked that I had seen this event. I called my wife
but by the time she had got from the living room the objects had
disappeared out of sight.
This started close to the constellation of Taurus in a NW direction. The
objects moved off in a North direction. These couldn't have been
planes/jet fighters, birds etc. I don't make silly claims. I have seen
things in the sky before but always put it down to planes/ satellites,
space junk and the like. This was none of these and quite frankly has
shaken me considerably.

Vernon, British Columbia More Orb Like Objects
Date: April 5, 2006
Time: 4:45 am - 5:45 am
Hi Brian, I had a restless night, so at 4:30 this morning I was outside
watching the Northern Lights when I spotted a globe (orb) very slowly
heading east. This orb appeared to be very low in the sky. A short time
later there was another globe very slowly flying south. This one appeared
to be higher in the sky but also appeared to descend lower as it went
south. A short time later there were two in the sky. One going north and
the other going south.
It looked as though one was flying at a higher altitude when they passed
each other, as it was smaller than the one heading south. All the orbs
stayed at the brightness of the smaller stars and were moving slowly. Not
like the other night when the orb I reported accelerated so fast, leaving
no trail, that my eyes crossed following it. I checked the Heavens-Above
to make sure that they weren't satellites, and hoping I read the chart
right there were no satellites at this time.

Los Angeles, California TV Station - News Reporter Talking About Stealth?
Date of news: April 5, 2006
Hi Brian, had to write to you about what I heard, on the news yesterday.
I have it recorded on my TiVo. Yesterday, the news was on, and the
weatherman just got finished talking about the weather. It's been raining
here for a few days, and he gave the weather report for the next week.
The news lady, whose name is Colleen Williams said, she saw the Stealth
Bomber do a fly by. It was just under the clouds, and it looked like a
big kite in the sky. The weather man, who's name is Fritz Coleman said,
that's strange, I wonder why it didn't show up on my Doppler. To me they
got a funny look on their faces, and changed the subject. Maybe what she
really saw was a large Triangular shaped craft, other than the Stealth. It
was on the channel 4 news, here in Los Angeles, Ca.

Mysterious Bruises Show Up - Ongoing Families Experiences
HBCC UFO Research Note: The below letter is from a lady who is speaking
about what her daughter found. The family has had some very unusual things
happen throughout their lives, and this could be another one of these
unusual events.
Message: Hi Brian, I have contacted you before if you recall. Last week my
daughter, 27, said to me that she would be ovulating. She thought
approximately around Sunday and we joked that maybe the "aliens" would
come. She had spoke of the possibility of that and intended to try to
notice anything strange around this time. Well, the morning after the
ovulation, she got up and when showering noticed several bruises on her
legs, on the inside near her knees and also inside of her thighs. She
showed them to me. She had been home all weekend with me, just being lazy,
not doing anything physical at all. I think it is too much of a
coincidence that she would predict this, and then have unexplained
bruises. This kind of stuff is not new to us, but still is amazing. She
also, like me, has had weird stuff happen to her all her life. I did not
know this till a few years ago and things she told me coincided with
things I remember her going through, such as unexplained terrors, but at
the time I had no idea anyone in the family had gone through anything
except some UFO sightings and strange dreams that I think were actually
memories. You can use this, all of it or just part, however you want.
