True Story 
The short story you are about to read is true! There is no reason for me to lie. No possible motive to make money. The article is free to anyone to download!! 
 


Many years has pasted since this incident, but what occurred to me seems like it just happened yesterday. So please bear with me, It happened the week-end following Valentine's day in the year of 1981, on a early Monday Morning about 1:20a.m. or maybe 1:22a.m. in the morning. I just left my brothers house, that at the time, he lived in Stroudsburg, Pa. Many of you that are familiar with the area know, to return to the Scranton,Pa. area you have to travel route 380. This I did, as I have done so many times in the past. 




While traveling on route 380, I was in a good mood, I had a fairly good time that week-end snowmobling with my brother, plenty of good food was eaten before and a evening nap was also taken. So what I am about to tell you is true. I do not want any doubt in your mind that I was tired, depressed or any other Crap that Skeptics, like Phil Klaus, who have a field day, trying to put people down, or calling them a nut. Also may I add this man, only puts forth negative statements, with no fact finding or research. 




By the way I wonder whose paying Mr.Phil Klaus, the Government? It was reported, on a well known Radio Talk Show, That Phil was seen with some of his good Old Buddies, outside the Pentagon Building. And may I also mention, This guy Phil Klaus, he could convince you, that your mother was not your mother, Boy the KGB missed out in having him for a agent.




Well, back to the story, That week-end it snowed and snowed bad started Friday into Saturday and off and on into Sunday. Which means the road departments had their hands full. It snowed so hard a times my brother and I decided to go back to his house because it was miserable for snowmobling. So that day on Sunday, I spend most of the afternoon and evening in his house, eating, watching T.V. and finally a nap which I awoke sometime between 9p.m. and 10p.m. 




I left my brother's house about or around Midnight, that would be going into early Monday morning, I was driving a 1976 Dodge Dart pulling a Snowmobile trailer, with one sled on that trailer. The roads were bad, I made it into down town Stroudsburg where, I pulled in to a gas station, to get gas and the extra weight from the gasoline would also give me more traction in the snow,and if I got stuck, I would have enough gas to keep the car running to keep warm since the outside temp was some were between 9 degrees and 15 degrees that early morning. 




After leaving the gas station, my only thoughts were that of driving safe, and getting myself home, since the local t.v.station (Ch16) stated that roads like rt. 380 at that hour were open to travel, but also stated that due to winds it may have drifts, and if I remember correctly they made a statement, that rt. 380 was one to be traveled at your own risk. Never was such statement so true, not that the road was that bad, but what happened to me at or near mile marker 22. 




Mile Marker 22 - Where my life, changed 

While Driving on this deserted road, which in normal weather is very busy all the time, but due to the weather conditions, the weather warnings, were effective enough to keep the general public off the road. But you guessed it, then there was me, traveling on it and it wasn't bad 3 to 4 inches of snow, but no drifts, to stop a car. Well as I came near this marker I have been telling you about. The entire road lit up, I was thinking, a dam trucker, with his high beams must be on my butt. I looked into the rear view mirror and did not see any truck! But I could see hundreds of feet back- Weird I though. Then looking forward I could see hundreds of feet in front, realing that what ever or who ever is shinning a light on me, has so much light that I could no longer, see the beams of light from my headlights!!! My second idea, if its not a truck, it must be a large commercial jet either going to crash or maybe military. I stopped the car, looking back once more to make sure that no traffic is coming, there's no place to pull off, I parked the car right in the road lane, with my emergency flashers going. 




It's not going to be a good day! 

I got out of the car, first looking behind me, you know, if it was traffic, I could get killed, standing out on a highway!! I saw no traffic, I'm thinking, very quickly, what the hell is going on. I'm starting to turn and looking up at first seeing nothing, but as I turn and look over the roof of the car facing the passager side, A Craft of some kind is coming towards me, At first no noise, and no wings, its getting closer, now within a couple of hundred feet, My feelings are changing now, I'm thinking, Oh My God, this is really happening. 




The View! 

The craft is now right in front of the car maybe a 100 feet in front with a elevation of 100 to 150 feet up. It's massive, equal to or larger than a blimp, or more towards a zeppelin. Well trying to be a rational person, and trying to equate it as such, but as it slowly, and I mean slowly inched across the highway. (about 13 minutes of viewing in front of me). My logic and thinking said Joe this is not one of ours. No motors on it, a flat bottom with huge rectangular lights, four floors, with viewing windows, of which I could see plenty of detail. For example, the craft did have a sharp tail to a point, with a red light, but the light was not a light like you or I might think of. It was some form of tube filled with light at least 8 maybe 9 feet in length attached to the tail (reminded me of the old fashion tube to use to see in front of a barber shop). Second the windows were tall, and rounded in each corner. Third, viewing up and into the windows several things came to my mind. One was that there are four floors, two there was at least 50 to 80 windows on each level and remember I am only seeing one side of the craft. also from visual input, from seeing into the craft from the windows it appears that the rooms are fairly tall at least 8 foot, but they are narrow like a small jail cell maybe 6foot across the depth of the room about 10 feet.




A real drawing made by me of the craft, later on we will try to get a real picture of the same craft off of video tape!!!

Description of Cigar shape Craft (Event of 2/81)

1. Length of Craft app.400 plus feet(May have been larger, too massive to guess at)
2. Width of Craft app. 100 feet(good estimate)
3. Height of Craft app. 80 to 90 feet(Fair estimate, may have been taller)
4. Tail on Craft at least 50 foot tall(good estimate)
5. Lights (rectangular) on bottom of Craft app.6 sections across and 30 or 40 sections running the 
....length of the craft. So if you are to relate, to what it looked like, hundreds of rectangular lights on
....bottom of the craft.
6. Windows (tall) with rounded corners
7. Another "Odd thing" on the side of Craft was a tube large enough to run a tractor trailer in it. Off 
....of that tube were smaller tubes going into the side of the craft . The Craft also had three marker ....type light on the side of the craft that was facing me.

 
My Visual Observations
1. Lights on Craft, were not the kind of lights that one can relate to, such as a light bulb or Aircraft ....lights.
2. Craft had no rivets, seams, or welds, I was close enough, if it was there, we would have ....noticed. If it was a (Tractor Trailer) at the same distance, You would have been able to count
....the lug nuts on the wheels.
3. Sides of Craft appear to be a dull gray.
4. Between panels on bottom of craft, metal has stainless steel appearance, but "dull or brush ....effect"



Make a "Wish"

I wish the story could end here, but in or around Oct. of 1987, while sleeping in my bedroom, I was awaken, by unwanted visitors. Two of them were short and one was almost a foot taller.

1. I was sleeping and then I awoke feeling "pain in my bottom area" I'm thinking boy is this a bad dream, till I realized you don't feel physical pain in a dream! Enough pain to make a grown man cry.

2. I find myself, with my head buried face down into my pillow, I also find my arms are pinned to ....my sides where as I cannot turn.(by the way, I usually sleep on either side, due to past back ....problems.)

3. I finally struggle for a period of time and was able to get in a upright position on the left side of ....the bed to see these 3 beings "floating" down the hallway about 6 to 8 inches off the floor. As ....they reached the kitchen area, instead of turning to the right to go out the door they just vanished ....into thin air.




Input - yes - I would like input from you!!!

Yes, I would like input from you concerning this encounter, or any other encounter that can be related, to what I saw, What I encountered, And the "Visit".




News updates

Recently I received a Video Tape from a Man out in Colorado, With a cigar shape craft, that appears or should I say materializes right in front of you! And takes shape and then appears to be a solid, this tape is exactly what I saw but at a 100 to 150 feet from it. His Name is Tim Edward's, And taped a cigar shape UFO Space Craft for over a hour. The Man who sent Me the tape owns a restaurant in his area, and has been on sightings. His reputation and background in his home area is of good quality.

I also received communication from a former marine, who had the same experience. This gentleman and myself communicated for some time and found what we experienced is the same. His Name cannot be given out, because of his job and family. My I say, this man was one of America's Finest, and of good background and good quality. I also sent him a drawing of the craft via E-Mail and He confirmed this is what he saw!!

We will keep you the public informed!!!!!!!




Unsolved Mysteries

About five years ago, while watching unsolved mysteries, I viewed a phone number, that accidentally appeared on the show, about a group of people who meet in a upstate N.Y. town, Who either had a encounter of some kind or a abduction. I was lucky, I taped that show and had the ability to freeze frame that segment and was able to copy down the phone number.

I then made contact with this group and explained what happened to me and was looking for some kind of support group. These people were kind, and invited me to their meeting
