Son Of Military Man Witnesses UFO Over Clark AFB

From the Vike Factor archives (Brian Vike) http://the-v-factor-paranormal.blogspot.com/

This may have no correlation to the USAF Airman's orange UFO account, however, my father was stationed at Clark Air Force base from 1986 to 1989 with the USAF Civil Engineering department and I was in high school at the time. Specifically in 1988, a friend from Wagner High (DOD overseas school) and I were sitting in front of her house around 2100 (9:00P.M.) and were observing an aircraft at what appeared to be high altitude executing loops and tight turning maneuvers.

At the time it only appeared as a single point of light like an aircrafts amber navigation light. We watched it for about five minutes and it finally made a flight path across a somewhat full moon and we saw that it was a circular object roughly about a quarter size of the moon,it had no wings or vertical stabilizer or protrusions.

This kind of shocked the both of us because we thought it was one of the F-4 Phantom aircraft they normally flew at Clark Air Force base. The craft slowly continued with the same maneuvers until we lost site of it over her roof. We reflected on it for several minutes and chalked it up to imagination and continued joking around until about 2300 (11:00 P.M.).

Before I started walking toward the street with my friend to head home, a streak of light like a falling star zipped over head at low altitude in a horizontal flight path and blinked out before it met the tree line in front of us I believe to be a hundred yards in front of us.

I do not believe this was a meteor or falling star due to the fact that I seemed so low altitude and didn't appear to be descending, but, rather, flying at a level altitude at a high rate of speed.

This really got us both in a panic and I called my father to come pick me up rather than walk 2 blocks to my house on the base. Now, to the best of my recollection, what i write is as accurate of an account as my memory permits considering that this occurred fifteen years ago, however, I never forgot that what we both witnessed together that night.

I am not saying that this account has any correlation with the Airman's account of an orange disk, but, stranger things have occurred in the Philippines than what you have been submitted. We never talked to anyone else about the flying sphere (as far as I know on her side), not out of fear or ridicule, but, we just chalked it up to another crazy night in the most superstitious Island in the south east orient. Just had to share this because of the story I read on the Rense site brought back some memories of that night.

Thank you for your speedy reply. I don't mind if you post my experience with my name. I have nothing to hide or be afraid of, the experience I shared with you is what we saw that night on Clark AFB.

The experience left me more open minded to just about anything, if someone told me they saw a ghost in there lifetime, rather than blow them off as being a loon, I am more attentive to listen to the details and walk away intrigued.

Now, there may be a worldly explanation as to what we saw that night, however, in my twelve years in the military (USN), I have yet to see current or special programs aircraft look or perform the way this craft performed that night in 1988.

I wish you luck in your voyage to learn the truth and please keep up the good work. Sometimes, even without hard to dispute evidence of (using the term loosely) extra-terrestrial craft, the smoking gun evidence is in the testimonial descriptions of peoples accounts of what they witnessed in our skies that doesn't seem to fit our everyday notion of what is acceptable, or for that matter, normal. Good luck.

I would like to extend my make thanks to Mr. R/Allen Cracknell USN. Mr. Cracknell gave his permission to post his story with his name attached.

Thank you to the gentleman for this interesting story.

Orange Disk Shaped UFO Over Clark AFB Philippines

From the Vike Factor archives (Brian Vike) http://the-v-factor-paranormal.blogspot.com/

Dates: From 1973 to 1976 - 1984 to 1988

I was stationed at Clark AB in the Philippines (now closed) from 1973 to 1976 and again from 1984 to 1988. During the first period I mentioned, I worked in the Base Fuels Distribution Office and one night between 1130 and 1200 we had an incident happen that was very reminiscent of this article. We were responsible for refueling all aircraft at Clark on a 24/7 operation.

As such, we would send out a truck between shifts and relieve those individuals that were refueling aircraft or receiving fuel into bulk storage for refueling at a later date. One of our storage points was known as the Hill Area, and it was about 10 miles from our main location. We received fuel there via a pipeline from Subic Naval Base (Olongapo City) .

During one particular night in late 75 or early 76, we sent a truck up to relieve the personnel who were receiving fuel at the Hill Area and bring them back down so they could go off shift. The type of truck we used for this purpose was a 2.5 ton general utility vehicle with a canvas top over the cargo area. Anyway, as assistant shift leader, I was dispatching trucks that night.

When the truck arrived with the individuals going off shift, they were all visibly shaken by something. I asked what was wrong, and was told that they were followed about 1/2 way from the Hill Area by a glowing orange ball about 3 feet in diameter. This ball trailed the truck and would rise up above, then drop to just below the top of the canvas so that all in the truck could see it. At the 1/2 way point, it raised up above the canvas once again and disappeared.

Now, you would think the story ended there but it didn't. When I returned to Clark the second time, I changed jobs and was responsible for training at the airlift wing stationed at Clark at the time. In each unit we had other training people known as training managers that were responsible for that squadron's training programs. Because of the nature of the job, everyone who was a training manager had originally been in another field.

It happens that one of the squadron training managers and I were talking one day and I found out that he had been a security policeman also stationed at Clark during 1973 - 1976 . We started talking about old times and he asked me if I had heard of the UFO encounter at Clark. I thought that he was talking about the incident that I related above but found out that it he was aware of that one, but was talking about another incident that happened the same night.

It seems that he was sitting on the desk and one of the Security Policemen on the flight line called in a report. He was in an area known as the "J " ramp which was directly in front of the Clark AB control tower. His sighting involved an orange disk directly over his position, approximately 75-100 feet in diameter. According to the individual relating the story to me, the disk sat there for a few seconds then shot straight up, disappearing almost immediately.

The individual relating the story said that since this was a highly peculiar incident he then called the Security Police commander who asked if he had made an entry on the police blotter (a logbook of incidents taking place on a shift) yet. He replied no, and the commander said not to and to forget that the incident ever happened. I heard nothing from any of our drivers myself that night because they were all occupied refueling aircraft at the far end of the parking area.

Over the years I have thought about this incident allot, and I sure would like to talk to some other people who saw either craft. I imagine that especially those individuals working in the control tower or sitting at the ground control radar that night would have quite a story to tell.

I would like to ask that any service men or women who were working at the Clark AB Philippines at the dates given in the story who have information about this incident would they please contact me. Not only would I like to know but the gentleman who is relating this story would like to hear from you also.

I would like to thank this person for telling us this fascinating story.

Clark AFB Philippines Air Police Reports Large UFO Picked Up On Radar

I was in the Air Police at Clark AFB from 2/63 to 8/64. I was on post one night about 11:30 p.m. on the far end of the run way where they kept the uploaded 102s. I had a radio on my post so I could hear all of the action. All at once CSC called the Strike Team to go down to the end of the Runway close to where my post was and check to see if they could find anything on the runway.

The radar site had picked up something large on the runway. I saw the Strike Team search the area and they called in that they did not find anything. Everyone went back to normal and I did not think much of it all. Then the Radar Site called back and they picked up the large object again coming on the runway from the Jungle.

This time they had a lot of troops searching the area. I was thinking that if this was some aliens and they were looking for specimens to take back with them than I was probably the best candidate as I was very close to the action but all along. I would not even be missed for a long time.

Below Photo: Map of the Clark AFB.


Date: From 2/63 to 8/64 Time: Approx: 11:30 p.m.

This is the only time I was really scarred during my 4 years in the Air Police. I could feel the hairs going up on my back. To make a long story short nothing was ever found but it has to be something large enough for our Radar to pick up.

Thank you to the person for their report.
