National Guard. And so we're, we're, it's dark outside, it's probably 8:30 or so. And we're pulling up to the Brook Park Brookgate Shopping Strip Mall. And there's this light and we got to go through the light, then you go into the parking lot and we're stopped at the light and we're both kind of just, we're just talking. I remember he was talking to me about some invention he had related to like a toothbrush I can remember that. And as he's talking, we're just kind of looking ahead and we see this thing, this craft hovering above the corner store. And it's got really bright lights. And we immediately thought it was a training exercise from the National Guard. That's what we thought. Oh, look at that. There's a helicopter. It's a training exercise. Like it was big, Hel. I thought it was like a Chinook or something or like a Blackhawk. And we were just sort of, you know, amazed that they're, they're hovering that low over the building. It was probably only 30ft above the building. And so we rolled our windows down because we thought we were going to hear the telltale sound of blades whipping through the air. Nothing. And we were close enough, we should have heard it. And we, it was windy, granted. And we looked at each other like, oh. So I go through the light. There's hardly anybody in the parking lot because it's almost, everything's almost closing, right? We're rushing to get to the store. Probably 8, 45 by now. Pull into the parking lot. And I don't even like park. I just throw my vehicle into park because this craft that was hovering above the corner store lifts up in the air and effortlessly glides right over my car. But it wasn't directly above. It was in front so that it like positioned itself so I could get a full view of it through my windshield. So it was in front but above. And then it descended to about 40ft. And it was immediately apparent to me and my brother in law that this was not National Guard. This was not anything conventional. It was reminiscent of the F117 Nighthawk fighter. It had sort of that angular body armor, a little bit of that. And it was like a grayish green dark color. Although it was hard to tell because it was nighttime. It had really bright triangular lights. I remember two, my brother in law remembers one. But triangles, lights, white. And then it had a series of, I think green and blue lights around the perimeter at the bottom. And it, it didn't have wings. It had little stubby protrusions in the place of wings. And it was kind of shaped like a diamond. And, and was it, it didn't really have sharp angles. It was very smooth. There was no visible windshield or anything like that. No markings. There was no propulsionary system, propulsion system to speak of. No engines, no propellers, nothing like that at all. Again, it just had little stubby protrusions in the place of wings. It was not aerodynamic is what I'm Trying to say. And we rolled our windows down to listen to hear if there's any noise of an engine. Nothing. Completely silent. All we heard was the wind. The wind was so strong that it was rocking my car like this. It's rocking. A gust of winds are rocking. My little Kia Sportage, I think, is what I had at the time. And this thing just, like I said, descended and just hovered there like I was supposed to see it. And we're just staring at this thing. I remember saying the only thing I could say was, tony, that is some top secret. That's what I told him. And then we're just staring at this and, and, and then suddenly, like I'm thinking, I don't. I have a flip phone at the time. He has a smartphone. I'm thinking, get a picture, get a video. Get video of this thing. So I said, tony, your phone, your phone. And he, like, like he's coming out of a trance and he starts, you know, looking for his phone in his pocket. He finds his phone, pulls it out, drops it on the ground. So he, he bends over to pick up his phone, right, to get a, to get a picture or footage. And as he's bending over, I mean, we probably were staring at this thing for at least 30 seconds, which is a long time, maybe even a minute or two. I don't remember. We had a long look at this thing. And as he's fidgeting on the ground to find his phone, the craft lifts up into the air again. It is so windy. And I failed to mention the craft is completely unaffected by the wind. Completely. As if it's in its own atmospheric bubble, lifts up into the air, and then it begins to turn effortlessly. And by the time he gets his phone up, it's moving away and it's just gliding away. And we jump out of the car and it is. I just remember jumping out of the car, getting blasted in the face with ice cold wind. And by the time he got his phone up, it was descending over the horizon, like over behind the houses, toward the glass, rather. Toward the NASA John Glenn center, by the way. Right in that direction. No, again, it had no insignia, no Air Force insignia. It was not a helicopter. It was the size of a Chinook or a Blackhawk helicopter. No insignia, no propellers, no noise, no propulsion system, no windshield. Was it a drone? I don't know. Whatever it was, it was not using conventional technology, that's for sure. You know, I mean, you know, when a Harrier jet takes off, if there's vehicles below it, like blows Them out of the way, right? This thing, nothing. So I don't know why, but I sort of concluded that I was looking at, you know, what. What people call ARVs. Alien Reproduction Vehicle. I. I don't know why. I can't. I can't say. I don't know why, but I got the distinct sensation that. That this was ours, but that the technology was exotic. I don't know. That was just a feeling, which doesn't mean much, but that's what I saw, and that was it for me. Okay, so everything that I had been learning about in the realm of ufology, right, was suddenly concretized in that moment. Now, that doesn't mean that everything's true, but it means the phenomenon is real, 100%. We've got advanced technology now, whether we, you know, took some divergent path from Nikola Tesla and built it ourselves, or whether we derived some of this technology from crash retrievals, which is what I believe. In fact, I would say I know that to be true at this point in my life. The phenomenon is real. The technology is real. People are in possession of it and are utilizing, are deploying it. And that really, like I said, it concretized the whole thing in my mind way back then. And so moving forward from that position, it wasn't, you know, I wasn't struggling and choking on aspects of ufology like a lot of people do because they've never seen anything. I was able to just have this baseline understanding that, yeah, something's. There's some aspect of this is. Is absolutely real.
