A US military witness with more than 25 years of experience has revealed his own nighttime encounter with a UFO, which illuminated his camp and made “absolutely no noise.”
The event came less than a month before a former top Pentagon counterintelligence official, Luis Elizondo, testified before Congress accusing government actors of working in secret to “hide the fact that we are not alone in the cosmos.” “.
The camp UFO of October 21, 2024, according to the military witness who requested anonymity, floated at a distance of up to 100 meters above him along the tree line: “The entire area lit up brighter than the brightest full moon I have ever seen,” he reported.
“I knew it wasn’t the moon because I had spotted it before,” noted the trained observer of this 20- to 30-foot UFO.. ‘(The moon) It was a dimly lit, waning gibbous.
The career soldier, who reported this episode to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC), added: “I watched it for at least a minute before fear took over and I sank back into the bed of my truck and in my sleeping bag.” .’
The oval-shaped ‘bright, fixed, stationary white light’ resembles a public case recently reported in November by Connecticut police officer Robert Klein, who professed that an orb UFO, the size of a Mini Cooper, ‘illuminated the entire cabin’ of his patrol. in 2022.
Fear of car-sized “unidentified aerial phenomena” (UAPs), often described as “mystery drones,” has spread across the country since November, as sightings in New Jersey and surrounding states have eerily coincided with cases involving US military bases.
Local leaders in the Garden State are “furious,” according to journalist and author Michael Shellenberger, who obtained audio of a video briefing delivered to more than 500 New Jersey mayors by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The American military witness spotted his 30- to 40-foot-long oval-shaped UFO while camping at the Yellow Post Campgrounds of the Santa Rosa Mountain, just southwest of Joshua Tree National Park in California. Above: The Milky Way seen over a Joshua Tree in the park on May 12, 2024
“One of them (i.e. a mayor) got there,” Shellenberger told Fox News, “and said, ‘I had two car-sized drones flying over my house.’
The case of the new public military witness, as he said NUFORC was itself approximately 8 to 10 feet tall, making this glowing, oval UFO about the size of a school bus.
The sighting, which the soldier said lasted more than a minute, occurred at the Santa Rosa Mountain Yellow Post campgrounds, just southwest of Joshua Tree National Park in California, where he was “the only camper/hunter in the area that night.” .
“I was lying on the tarp of my truck,” he told NURFOC, a 501(c)3 nonprofit that has coordinated with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on UFO matters for decades.
“It was completely dark,” he said, as the waning gibbous moon glowed faintly, when “instantly” the ordinary noises of insects and animals in nature “went completely silent” when the UFO appeared.
“It made absolutely no noise, it didn’t pulse or move and it didn’t radiate any kind of heat,” he said, adding that the temperature was “about 40 degrees Fahrenheit” that night.
By his estimate, this “bright, stationary white light” was “about the size of a medium-sized helicopter, but the light encompassed the entire object” as it hovered in the “upper level of a tree, behind a pine tree about 30 meters high.” 40 feet high.” , only about 100 meters away.
The encounter, which ended as abruptly as it began, differs from Officer Klein’s encounter with a car-sized glowing orb UFO in that the Connecticut police officer’s sighting pulsed its light from white to red to green to orange.
The veteran police officer made an effort to emphasize NewsNation that, in the first moments of his encounter, he was able to obtain ‘a very close view’ from 30 feet below the floating orb-shaped object: “It wasn’t a drone, I can guarantee you that.”
Swarms of drones have been seen in the skies over New Jersey for weeks, prompting officials to call for a “limited state of emergency,” with drone bans set to go into effect in some areas.
Mayor Mike Ghassali of Montvale, New Jersey, took to Facebook to reveal what happened to a resident’s quadcopter drone when they had an encounter with a mysterious unmanned UFO hovering in the air nearby, noting that there was “sophisticated” technology in game in December. 15 event
The military witness gave the coordinates of his October 2024 UFO sighting as 33 degrees 32′ 12.8″ North and 116 degrees 27′ 38.7″ West (red mark, above), placing him at the Santa Rosa Mountain Yellow Post camp. east of Los Angeles at the time of his
“I was paralyzed,” Klein said, remembering that moment looking at the object. ‘I wasn’t afraid. I was really trying to understand what exactly I was looking at.’
“I was trying to process what I was looking at,” he said. “Even today I am perplexed.”
Speech before Congress last NovemberLuis Elizondo, former head of the Defense Department’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), criticized federal officials for “excessive secrecy” on the UFO issue.
‘I think we as Americans can handle the truth. And I also believe that the world deserves the truth,’ Elizondo said.
The former intelligence officer also urged Congress to pass legislation protecting government whistleblowers who fear revealing what they know about UFOs, a common refrain among those who testified at the Nov. 13, 2024, open hearing.
The hearing, held by the House Oversight committee, was part of a broader investigation into UFOs to determine whether any government officials have been withholding evidence from Congress.
“Advanced technologies not made by our government or any other government are monitoring sensitive military installations around the world,” Elizondo insisted, raising disturbing implications for the series of “mystery drone” sightings at US bases.
In recent months, the Garden State has been devastated by thousands of unexplained drone sightings, as more than 5,000 strange drone reports have been filed with federal authorities.
Although misidentifications of conventional aircraft have been common amid growing public panic, reports from US military officials across the United States and Europe, along with local police, have provided consistent accounts of these car-sized drones.
The lighting colors of the drone swarm, as well as their behavior, match those that also made repeated brazen raids. on restricted airspace over Joint Air Force Base Langley-Eustis in Virginia, then home to the US F-22 stealth fighter fleet.
For at least 17 nights in December 2023, swarms of these small, noisy UFOs were also seen at dusk “moving at fast speeds” and “flashing red, green and white lights.”
And these cases are almost identical to those that have been reported about sensitive sites in New Jersey, such as the US Army Picatinny Arsenal, since mid-November 2024.
Base police have reported 11 confirmed, unauthorized drone sightings over the armory since Nov. 13, meaning security officialsVisibly witnessed a drone.’
Chris Mellon, a former senior Pentagon security official, told DailyMail.com last October that the unexplained raids over Langley-Eustis were “part of a much broader pattern affecting numerous national security facilities.”
“Two of the notable aspects,” he said, “are the fact that our drone signal jamming devices have proven to be ineffective and these craft are making no effort to remain hidden.”
“In fact, in some cases,” as Mellon was at pains to emphasize, “it’s clear that they want to be seen as making fun of us.”
