We're going up range. For those kind of things, we don't do the telephone monitoring. When we go up range to the test range at Nellis, that was what we called red forcing. And what our job was there is we were also trained to do combat ops against our own pilots so that we could help them survive in a wartime environment. And that was done at the top of Black Mountain.
And we call that a little schoolhouse there. And then if you walk up another few yards, there's really those big golf ball-looking radars or satellite dishes were up at the very top. But anyway, that's where we were heading this one day. So we all packed up. We're in Beatty, Nevada, which is the Burrow Inn. I can tell you that's where we always hold up at.
And we take off from there every morning to go do the a.m. and the p.m. push. That's what you call it when... The war is on. You call it the push. So we had one in the morning called AM push, one in the afternoon, PM push. So we were all heading up for the AM push in a convoy. There's three vehicles, probably about three to four people per vehicle. I'm in the lead vehicle with the ranking guy.
He's driving and I'm right behind him. And then there's another gentleman in the passenger seat across from the driver. And then there's a young lady next to me. And we're all going up. And the ranking guy had been there the week before. And he had seen the craft fly by. And that one's out there on the internet. You can pull down the video. There's a report that goes along with it.
There's a video that we can watch right now? Right now, yeah. What would he search? Search for, let me think, Nellis Test Range UFO 1994. Wow. Who filmed this? This was filmed by the operators on the range because we're putting these pilots in a risky situation by playing war with them, but we're training them.
So if there is any kind of a mishap or a pilot or a plane goes down, everything needs to be recorded. So this is it right here? Yes. So this video is being taken by one of these cameras that's up on the range.
And along the bottom, you see that this is also trying to lock on to the craft so it can follow it as it goes in and out because this is the kind of way that you want to track if there's a craft that is having problems.
Right. So this is what the ranking guy saw.
It's an automated system.
Yeah, if it locks on, you'll see a big spike. And that means that it finally locks on. Right now it's trying to, but something is stopping it from locking on. And they think it was the craft.
Right. This is the video operator. So the following week after this happens, this video is taken, the ranking guy who had been there the week before and saw this thing flying, He takes us in this, when you go on the range through this one gate here, it goes up a little ways, and then there's a containment area.
It's got a very small place where you can change your tires, get gas, you know, minor maintenance to get your butt home if you have a car that's busted. And then in the back of that cantonment area, there's two huts that look like campers, really, glorified campers. So the video operators are in the one that's off to the northeast of the cantonment, in the very corner of it.
And the ranking guy just says, we all have to go in here. We're going to go talk to the video operators. We have to do this. And this was because the week prior, everybody came back to Garrison or back to our unit, and they had seen this thing, and they were all talking about this UFO. So we go in there, and there's the video operator.
He has us all write our names down, whether we were there and saw it the first week or not. Then he makes us all sit down and watch that video. And he says, do you know what this is? And we're like, no. And then he just said, okay, thank you. And then after everybody that was there,
saw it and had wrote their name down we were allowed to leave and that was all that was required and um so i was like what was that all about but then as i'm exiting this lady that had been sitting against the wall on the far part of the uh this little hut that we were in and uh she like grabs my arm and she just says there's somebody on the range don't talk to him and she was really really freaked out
And I'm like, thanks, strange, freaky lady. Got it. And I'm like, whatever. So we all hop out. We get in the vehicles and then start taking off towards Quartz Mountain because right at that cantonment area, there's a hard right. There's a hard right that goes off to Quartz Mountain. And about a mile, half a mile to a mile down that road, it's all dirt road up, by the way, there's this guy.
It looks like he's wearing a uniform like we are.
got battle dress uniform on um so he's he's sees us and he starts to look like he's running and he's got this really weird run like his arms are kind of flailing behind him it's like he was running against the hurricane wind and it was like he was going to fall over at any time and i was like yeah it's a bit windy today but it ain't that bad so it looked really strange and then i began to notice his skin tone looked like he might be hypothermic and i'm thinking oh crap this dude's been out here it's freaking freezing out here
Because it was a very cold day and the wind was blowing. It was, you know, those cold days where it didn't matter how many layers you had on. And so as we're getting closer, I'm talking to the ranking guy. Hey, we need to slow down. So anyway, I'm thinking this guy's probably in big trouble. I need to pull off my jacket. I need to give him something to get warm.
So I'm starting to do that, and we're approaching, and by the time I get my jacket most of the way off, he's right there at the corner of the front of the car.
