Gene, what was that movie made in Snowflake?

Did you just watch it? Sounds like it!:D

Found it. Fire in the Sky.

Steve,
Never watched it. Wife had one of the family's boys (Travis the "abductee's" nephew, I think) in her 2nd grade class. He refused to talk about it. Poor kid was teased a lot.

I never gave UFOs much thought until I discovered that my Fighter Wing - 119th Happy Hooligans - 1st Lt. George Gorman, an F-51 pilot in 1948 chased a UFO over Fargo and up, up, and away, until he lost his air speed. He couldn't catch it. It was the first incident of the AF declaring a UFO a weather balloon. :eek: Check it out: http://ufoevidence.org/cases/case704.htm

In 2009 I was conducting an inspection at Clear Station, AK - an early warning radar site that also keeps tabs on every item orbiting this old terrestrial globe. When I was visiting with an Airmen at one of the radar consuls I asked if he ever got UFOs? With no joke in his voice he said, "More than you think, Sir."::cool:

I have always felt badly for Lt. Gorman, although I never knew him. He was teased in the Squadron until he left and went on active duty. To his dying day he refused to talk about what happened on that October evening.

There are many more people than you might imagine who have been admonished to never speak of what they have seen. I am one of those who was manning an early warning radar console who "never saw a thing".

Remember - if you saw "it" flying overhead and you do not know what "it" was - "it" is a UFO.

In the long run, it might have been easier to have been caught sleeping at the console.
