Cannon Air Force Base Security Police Watch Numerous UFOs
Date: July 1976
July 1976 at Cannon Air Force Base
The following events occurred 30 years ago. The exacts details have become a little fuzzy, after all I haven't thought about this stuff for 3 decades.
I was a member of the 27th SPS (Security Police) and the only event that I can recall happening during January of 1976 was some talk of a plane crash that was supposed to happen, but everyone had different stories with different facts, so I passed them off as fairy-tales. But early July 1976 is a different story.
I was working Security and we were on rotating shifts, something like 3 days on days then 2 off, 3 days on afternoons and 2 off, then 3 days on nights then 2 off. Anyways, it was my last day on nights and I was on patrol with another Airman and we were back by the Portales Gate (a remote gate that basic lead to the town of Portales, hence the name) when my partner pointed at something in the sky and asked, "what the hell is that". I saw a light in the sky that appeared to be hovering maybe a couple hundred feet above the ground, just outside the base. We pulled over to the side of the road and observed it for a few minutes. It was blue on top, white in the middle and green on the bottom. We finally called dispatched and asked them if they could contact Flight Tower to see if they had any planes flying. The response was that they did not have anything in the air. It was about then that our dispatch got a call from the Clovis Police and said that they could see some strange lights over the south side of our base. They asked if we had anything in the air. The radio then came alive with other reports all saying the same thing, the light were being seen by others. The Flight Tower was contacted and their radar showed nothing in the sky.
We told dispatch how close we were to the light, and soon 2 other patrols were parked along side us watching it. One of them decided to drive towards the light and we kept in contact with them, to direct him, but as we gave directions and he got directly under the light it could not be seen.
Suddenly the light just seemed to vanish, gone in a blink of an eye. It did not fly away, it just disappeared.
The next night I was sleeping and it was approx 2:00 a.m. when I heard a commotion coming from the hallway of my barracks. I got dressed and followed everyone outside to see what was going on. In the skies above us were approx: 12 lights that made a perfect circle around the base. Each one was the exact same distance from the other, so I knew that this could not be by accident. I wondered if it could be related to the events I witnessed a few nights before. We watched the lights for about an hour or so and then it was as if someone had turned off the power to them, they went off one at a time in a circular manner.
The next night, I could not fall asleep so I went outside to take a walk around, hoping that would make me tired. As I was walking I found myself looking up at the sky and the next thing I saw was a single light appear, then another and another until all 12 lights had come back on like the night before. I noted the time and it was the exact time as the night before.
I ran back to my barracks, where the entire squad had assembled and several people had movie cameras and were filming the sky. As they did the night before, and at the same time, they went off one at a time, just like they had come on.
I eagerly waited the next night for the lights to appear, but they never returned.
The next month in one of the "men" magazines that were being sold at the time (I think it was (removed) magazine) had interviewed the base commander for an article about the lights. So if you want to read up on this, look for a back issue of (removed) magazine dated August or later of 1976.

Prince Rupert, British Columbia ZigZagging Ball Of Light Dropped Two Red UFOs From It
Date: 2006 - 2007
Time: Evening.
I am writing because ever since last year me, my boyfriend and a close friend of ours has seen many glowing light in Prince Rupert, BC. The first one we saw was last year, my boyfriend and went upstairs to the computer room and looked out the window and this ball of light look as if he had startled it, as it did a few zig zags and shot over to the mountain. He yelled for me to look at it, we observed it for a while and then 2 red lights dropped out of it, and the yellowish white ball of light just hovered over the mountain.
The red lights started scanning the mountainside, moving very, very quickly and in weird movements. We called the RCMP who said if it wasn't coming for us and not to worry. But come on, that was very out of the ordinary, so we watched it for a while longer and the ball of light starting moving upwards, kind of like hovering slowly and turning, like a bluish and purplish then looked as if it got a little bigger. The two red lights shot up inside and it was gone in the blink of an eye. I called my mom too, and the next day she told her friend who said, that's crazy because one of my regular customers just showed me a picture on their digital camera of a bluish light and they saw it in Port Ed on the same night. So I felt better that I wasn't crazy, then we observed it for about a week. Then we've seen a few since, but last night something told me to look outside, like this feeling it was strange and I yelled for my boyfriend to look. It was the same light hovering over our house. It wasn't Jupiter or the north star because it was on the opposite side of the house. We watched it slowly hover upwards and kind of sideways, just like last year. Then a little light, so tiny you had to look closely moved right underneath it and that one moved across the sky. The funny thing about these lights is that it's soundless, no noise at all and it disappeared. The funny thing about all these strange occurrences is that every time me and my boyfriend looked up online about UFOs we always see something that night. So I think somehow its connected, it might sound crazy, but I'm a sane person, I assure you. Were just very interested in UFOs.

Belfast, Ireland Multiple Sightings Of UFOs
Date: 2003/2007
Time: Mostly day time.
Location of Sighting: From home.
Number of witnesses: 6
Number of objects: 50
Shape of objects: Sphere/cylinder/cube/saucer/bird and others.
Full Description of event/sighting: Hi, I have been seeing these things for about four years now, at first I didn't believe it. I dismissed them as balloons or paper blown in the air. Then after seeing them 6/7 times one month in late 2003 I had to accept that they were UFOs. They mostly come from the northwest, although not always. They stop and hover near were I live then move off to the northeast toward Scotland. I watched them for another year 2/3 a month fly past or hover for a few minutes.
The spheres I have seen are white mainly, although I have seen metallic, brown and blue types. The cylinders (I have seen two of these) are white plain flat at both ends and alot bigger than the spheres. I still had not spoken to anyone about these things. I have a wife and children and I didn't want to upset anyone. I had no idea what they were, and I wasn't certain of what I should do. Then in April 4, 2007 I was helping my brother in-law with some garden furniture. It was a nice spring day there was some cloud but mostly blue skies. I spotted a silver sphere away out to the east it was moving towards us.
I pointed it out to my brother-in-law and we watched it get closer, after about 2 minutes it was above us, and one of the best sightings I had, as you could see the reflection of the clouds bending around its surface. It had not stopped, but kept up it's pace as it slowly moved into the west. I was delighted I had a witness as he saw it also. I wasn't going insane after all :) In my joy I called out to it "hey come back." As I did, it stopped. It didn't come back but it scared us both for a second. What it did do is elongate and then divide in to two spheres, and then merge and disappear. After that I told my family and friends about what I been seeing. They were skeptical at first. I would tell them how they are up there most months and eventually they (my family and friends) would be with me when it happens. So we have all seen them now. I won't go into them all here, but the last sighting was a blue sphere very high up. I took some photographs.

Oshawa, Ontario Object Appeared Translucent Like A Jellyfish
Date: May 6, 2007 Time: 12:36 p.m.
I have to report this one to you now from work. On Sunday, May 6, 2007 after 12:36pm est. at home in Oshawa, I stepped on the deck facing west. The sun was close to 90 degrees above me and had little shade left to where I sat. I looked straight up and noticed a odd object moving from the south to the north, directly overhead. I watched in disbelief of this odd thing moving across. The best description one could give, is that it appeared like a tube. The altitude would be a guess at plus or minus 2000 feet,and appeared white and translucent like a jellyfish. The shape and closeness is what made me jump up to get my camera in the house. All in 30 seconds, I returned to view and could no longer see it. I snapped some pictures hoping the camera would pick it up-due to sun glare. No such luck in capturing an image, real weird. This was a new one for me to witness and wonder if it was biological like a flying rod. This has been my third sighting for 2007- thus far. Making it my first daylight sighting and questionable – what was it’s purpose overhead ?

Toronto, Ontario (High Park) A White Or Metallic UFO
Date: May 7, 2007
Time: 1:50 p.m.
Location of Sighting: High Park.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Oval.
Sighting ! My friend and I were lying on a hill near the south end of the High Park when I saw what I at first thought was a plane, or a gull flying ever so slowly. Then as I continued to watch it I realized there was no shadow created by a flat object, it was reflecting the sun from extremely high in the sky. I turned to my friend and asked her if she could see the object that I was seeing, but she has poor eye sight and could not locate it. I asked her give me the time and I continued to watch it, it was ever so slow and very graceful, like something gliding in water. It was 1:50 p.m.and I lost visual at about 3-4 minutes later. I was then given the opportunity to compare it to some planes that flew by only 5 minutes after the sighting. The planes were clearly planes, and I could see their underbellies and the darkness of them as they were in shadow. These planes were not nearly as high as the object that had just gone over head.
The Object:
Colour : White or metallic (sun was reflecting off it powerfully).
Location : South West of High Park, just north of Lake Ontario, and about 5000-8000 meters above the ground (I'm only guessing, it was high).
Flight : Went from South West to North West for about 3000 meters.
Motion : Smooth and very straight.
Speed : Extremely slow and at some points it seemed to slow down and almost stop for a second or two.
Sighting length : It was from 1:50 - 1:53/54.
Weather : Sunny with blue skies, a few wispy clouds and a breeze coming from the south west pushing to the north east.
Thought : Could this have been a satellite? I have no idea whether or not you can see satellites during the day, but I seem to recall someone once telling me you can. Just a thought.

Oshawa, Ontario Large Triangular UFO And Multicolored UFO
Date: May 8, 2007
Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.
Hi Brian, my son has had an incredible sighting. He and two friends witnessed on May 8, 2007 after 10:00pm a few hundred yards where I come out of swimming, saw a triangle craft. The startling part is he describes it as "miles" in size. This thing was huge, high in the sky circling another round multicolored UFO. He has detail of this craft, and will do a composite drawing and send the report to you shortly. I have noted that triangles have on the rise, big time reports. I believe the signs are becoming more evident for full contact. I heard the last interview with the Texan fellow, wow, why did the other folks not take a interest? His father knew about the crafts and generational abduction maybe ? Funny how only certain folks see these anomalies,while others don’t or even care to want to know ? Real weird eh ? Anyway, hope fully my son and friend will e-mail you shortly.
Additional Information:
The location they observed these crafts was at Thornton Road and King Street (Hwy 2) in Oshawa. They were at St.Michael’s School hanging like most teenagers. They had watched it north of their position through some trees, coming from the east. I spoke to my son’s friend yesterday, of whom also witnessed this triangular craft. He claims it was about a mile in size, how shocking ! That’s quite big, would you not classify it as a Mothercraft? I asked him how he felt after watching it for that few seconds. He is simply amazed and now questions his surroundings of what’s really going on up there. I have asked my son each day since the sighting occurred, (May 8, 2007 around 10:10pm) to sketch and send to you what he witnessed along with his friend. He will send this to you shortly and hopefully his friend as well. I’m quite amazed and question what going on in Oshawa. Note as well that 3 miles north, is Oshawa Airport, as one would wonder did they get this activity on radar ? Take care and hope the back is much better.

Oshawa, Ontario Multicolored Light And Massive Triangular Craft - (Excellent Diagram)
Date: May 8, 2007
Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: School Near my house.
Number of witnesses: 2/4
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: One multi colored light, 1 beige Triangle.
I was standing behind this school on the pavement playing hack, when my friend Lex said look a UFO, and we all looked up and saw a bright white light moving across the sky from West to East. The light seemed to have multi colored lights moving around it in all directions, green, blue, red, and white. There was 4 of us standing there, Bogie, Lex, and his girlfriend. Lex, Bogie and I have all seen UFO's in this area before, but Lex's girlfriend had not, she was sort of startled. Bogie and I walked out into the field to watch the light, since it was now nearing the tree line and we were losing sight of it. We stopped in about the middle of the field because there was a V shaped opening in the trees where we could clearly see the light, which was a few miles away by now, and was quite high in elevation which it had maintained since we first saw it. As we were watching it, from the left of the V shaped opening of trees, a massive, and I mean massive beige triangle came toward the light with insect like speed.
The triangle was about a mile, to a mile and a half in length, and about 100-200 feet from the side view, and this thing was a few miles away, but you could measure it with a ruler. It flew around the multicolored light with insect agility and after about 4 seconds it left the way it came. The best way to describe the triangular craft was a star destroyer from Star Wars. It had 2 large square parts on both sides, which were I think, completely identical, and on the back. On the 'main' triangle part, at the back it seemed to have 5-7 red lights which would slightly light up as it fluidly moved though the air. So I would assume this would the some sort of propulsion. We saw this object for about 4-5 seconds, and as you can see in the diagram I saw quite a bit of detail on it, it was the most incredible thing I have ever seen. I have never heard of this type of UFO, ever. As soon as I saw this second object (triangle) I yelled for Lex and his girlfriend, but it was gone before they got to where we were standing. Bogie and I are very dumbfounded by what we saw, and hopefully, someone saw what we saw, because you couldn't miss this thing.

Kitchener, Ontario Bright Ball Of Light Changes To Flashing Sequential Lights (Triangular In Shape)
Date: May 9, 2007 Time: 4:00 a.m.
Location of Sighting: Kitchener, On.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangle shaped.
I just prepared milk for my baby when I glanced to the window and saw a bright ball of light. I knew it was not a star as it is very close. Suddenly, the bright light change to a small flashing sequential lights and started to move. As if they knew that someone was watching them. I think maybe they can detect with their equipment because my daughter was sick and was crying very loud. Then they move towards my apartment and passed by my bldg. Because it was bright (because of the flashing light) I saw the shape as triangular and has a red light on one of it's side. I managed to take a photo but came out so small as I only used the cam on my phone.not sure if this is useful.
One week before I saw this event I saw a bright saucer passing by horizontally and then flew vertically and vanished. It was 2-3pm and the weather was very sunny.

Edmonton, Alberta UFO With Halo Around It
Date: May 11, 2007 Time: 10:50 - 11:15 p.m.
Location of Sighting: North Edmonton
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 3
Shape of objects: Round balls of light/halo.
I went outside in the backyard with my girlfriend, behind our northwest Edmonton home at approximately 10:40 pm. We were looking up at the sky noticing what a clear night it was just as we do often. Around 10 minutes later I saw what at first looked like a star. It was in the south eastern sky. It moved at a pace that looked slower than a plane towards the northwest portion of the sky. I did a double take because there was no way it was a plane, it was way to far up. As we both watched, it went really fast and looked to be going up and almost disappeared from view, but it came back down and went slow again. Then it swerved to the right like a car passing another on the right side and then came back onto it's path. It then continued until it came to a complete stop beside a star in the sky, in the north side of Edmonton. The colour was fainter than a star not so bright but when it was still it looked to have a halo around it and it seemed to be changing colours, we could see a blue golden yellow and red tint emanating from the outer edges.
Not too bright but definitely there. Almost like spots as the colours appeared then were gone. We continued to stare at this but we ran inside to get our son. When we came back out with him, we could see it there still but no more colours or movement. As we were trying to point this out to our son, we saw another object the same. Moving in the same way and in the same direction, until it passed the other object to the west (left) and then disappeared from sight. We watched for movement from the first one for about 5 more minutes and nothing so we went into the house. We were quite shaken and my girlfriend went back outside about 10 minutes later. She then called to us as there was another object again from the same direction doing the same thing until it disappeared out of sight.

Fertile, Minnesota A Commercial Pilot Observes Three Lights Which Formed A Triangular Craft
Date: May 12, 2007 Time: 10:56 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Fertile MN.
Number of witnesses: 3
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangular shaped object.
As our family waited for folks to come home from a shopping trip, we saw a fast moving red object approaching from the south, we thought it was a satellite at first and then as it turned to southwest. We saw two white lights on either side of the red light. The now three lights formed the classic triangular shaped object many people have reported in the past. We tried to listen for an airplane sound or a jet sound, but heard none. I am a commercial pilot and work in the aerospace industry, I am 100% sure that this was not a typical aircraft that I could identify.

Whitby, Ontario Two Object (UFOs) Flying At A High Rate Of Speed
Date: May 13, 2007 Time: 10:05 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Oshawa Baseball Diamonds beside lake Ontario.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 2
Shape of objects: Bright light.
On May 13, 2007 at Oshawa Ice Sports Ball Diamonds in Oshawa myself and a friend noticed 2 objects traveling at a very high speed. I first noticed that there was a bright light in the sky to the West of the Ball Field. They were about 3000 - 5000 feet from the ground and the speed of the objects was awesome. They flew in formation with one slightly behind the other. They made no sound and my friend was blown away by the fact that something was traveling so fast without making any noise. I have to mention that there is a Nuclear Power Plant within 2 Km's from the field. I have about 25 games remaining to the season and you can bet my eyes well be in the sky every game. Hopefully I won't take a baseball to the head. Bye for now.

Coquitlam, British Columbia Two Or More Saucer Shaped Craft
Date: May 14, 2007 Time: 1:45 - 2:15 p.m.
Location of Sighting: North Road, Coquitlam.
Number of witnesses: 2 (or more)
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Saucer-shaped.
I was walking up North Road to catch the 97 bus in front of the local McDonalds. There was a Chinese-Canadian man looking up at the sky directly above, and just beyond North Road (from my perspective). I saw what looked like a metallic, saucer-shaped object, reflecting sunlight and moving quickly.
Although the object moved quickly, it lasted long enough for me to get a good look at it. It disappeared into the air within several seconds; the entire event could have been 25-35 seconds, as the man was watching it before I saw it.
It was definitely metallic as the object reflected intense sunlight. It appeared to be low in the sky due to size and intensity of sunlight coming off it. The other man left and I mentally jotted down all of the details.
