You can just type in Calvin UFO whatever. So I had just cross-trained from, yeah, that one. I had just cross-trained from... maintenance into intelligence, and I was going to my first intel assignment. And I'm flying from Philadelphia to Frankfurt, Germany, to Rheinland Air Base. Somewhere between Iceland and Scotland, This thing is zipping around in the clouds doing this ziggy-zaggy thing.
I don't know what it was doing, but it was doing this. The sun was just coming up, and I'm eating a Philly cheesesteak, and the other guy who's with me is eating a hoagie, and the other guy that's standing up over the top, I'm like, anybody know what that is? And they're like, dude, what is that? And then all of a sudden in my head, I'm like, oh, this is my first Intel assignment.

I'm going to get clued into some cool ass shit. But I don't know what the hell that is. But I'm just thinking it looks just like that. It looks just like that. And the way it was moving in the clouds, it was like because the shadow was like going from like that color to like dark. And then light again as it was moving in. And it would go into a cloud on one vector and come out on another vector.

And what happened was I got to my unit. And I talk to them and I go, we have a weapons tactics guy. He's, you know, they're the best of the best and they're leading the group.

And I was like, so what is that thing out there? And he goes, I have no idea what you're talking about. Now, this is in January of 1990. That picture is August of 1990. And what I didn't realize was that the Belgian wave, I don't know if you're familiar with that, a whole bunch of triangular devices were seen over Belgium for almost a whole year. So they just call it the Belgian wave.

No, but the general that's in charge actually gave a briefing to everybody and showed what the F-16 radar was seeing. And I guess every time they tried to get close to it, it would just pull away just far enough, you know, that they couldn't catch it. And then when they would try to cage it in the radar system, it would move to the left. You know, it was playing with them. So...

So dead the storm happens, whatever. And I'm at my base and British AWACS shows up. And they're looking at me, and I still had my accent, my British accent. They're looking at me going, what are you flying with the Yanks for?
