offer start your journey for only 99 cents in all my investigations of UFO and ET mysteries the most compelling case with the most eyewitnesses and hard physical evidence is RAF Bentwaters Woodbridge in December 1980 that UK an American Air Base was NATO's largest adding to its sensitivity was a big dark secret at the time that the weapon storage areas on both the Bentwaters and Woodbridge sides of the base did contain tactical nuclear weapons strange unidentified red blue orange and white lights and beams showed up in nearby Rendlesham forest for three nights in a row after midnight December 26 27th and 28th 1980 there was physical evidence of a triangle pattern embedded in the forest floor and above background radioactivity on scorched trees and soil that's when a secrecy lid was slammed down hard by military and intelligence authorities where was RAF Bentwaters Woodbridge 95 miles northeast of London in Suffolk County the green circle marks the air base between Woodbridge and Orford near the North Sea on this map Rendlesham forest is all the darker green color east of Woodbridge growing around between the black rectangles of RAF Woodbridge and RAF Bentwaters in 1942 as the Second World War intensified the British Royal Air Force constructed the air base and at first they called it RAF but Lee the forest was important to camouflage the air bases war activities so even more trees were planted to enlarge Rendlesham forest after the end of World War two RAF but Lee was renamed RAF Bentwaters by Britain's Ministry of Defence and leased to the United States Air Force for its 81st fighter-interceptor wing by 1958 RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge became a joint u.s. and Royal Air Force complex with a big thick Rendlesham forest in between by December 1980 RAF Bentwaters Woodbridge was the largest NATO base in Europe but a decade later in 1992 the United States cancelled its involvement with RAF Bentwaters but back in 1980 the Alliance was critical for NATO's largest airbase this Google aerial shows underlined in red the Woodbridge and Bentwaters weapons storage areas also known as WSA's that had the tactical nuclear weapons the RAF Woodbridge runway ends at the east gate and folly house surrounded by the dark green Rendlesham forest further east is a large open field labeled farmhouse that field has a section called Capitol green where the small orange circle marks the site of UFO lights and craft the orange path is where Staff Sergeant James Penniston airman first class John burrows an airman Eadie Avanza traveled in a security pick up to investigate strange unidentified area lights after midnight on December 26 1980 at the orange circle in the forest next to Capitol green is where Penniston and Burroughs were engulfed in bright white light and sergeant Penniston says he walked around and touched a black triangular craft that felt like glass the RAF Bentwaters WSA was the American side of the base about four miles north of RAF Woodbridge nuke bunkers along a hot row were watched 24 hours a day by security this photograph is from a Bentwaters tower some 50 feet high look over the nuclear weapons storage area and here is the famous Orford ness lighthouse six miles east of the base government agents tried to use the lighthouse as a phony explanation for all the lights and beams activity in Rendlesham forest I was surprised to learn that RAF Bentwaters Woodbridge was infamous for having strange lights and beams long before December 1980 many people in different parts of the large air base have seen strange lights and beams around the base but sightings were usually not reported to avoid hassles with authorities as RAF Bentwaters airman first class doc Rhodes told me quote when I got to Bentwaters fresh from basic in January 1980 I was told by some of the more experienced guys if you see a light or something strange floating in the skies don't report it you'll only make trouble for yourself close quote in fact doc Rhodes sketched for me what he remembered seeing at the beginning of 1980 when in January he was stationed at the Woodbridge main gate one night he said a very large area light stopped in the air without any sound near the main gate and emitted a series of light beams down toward the flight line where the Woodbridge weapons storage area was but doc Rhodes said he never reported that astonishing area light and the beam that it emitted because of the warning not to cause trouble but the lights and beams kept coming by the end of 1980 military security and law enforcement from Charlie and Delta flights were involved with strange unidentified lights beams and craft that persisted for a 72 hour period from December 26 to 28 it began after midnight on December 26 1980 afterward the rumors started the 20 year old airman first class John Burroughs from Charlie flight law-enforcement had either jumped up on a UFO in Rendlesham forest or rose up in a beam of light John Burroughs was born in Bloomington Illinois in 1960 and joined the US Air Force right after high school graduation he received orders to go to RAF Bentwaters England and arrived in July 1979 about 18 months before the highly strange Rendlesham forest encounters John remained in the Air Force until his retirement in 2005 as a tech sergeant John's conscious memory has been blocked about what happened to him on two different nights first after midnight on December 26 and then two nights later around 4 a.m. on December 28 1980 John was confused by the airbase rumors that he jumped up on a UFO because he could not clearly remember what happened when he was near the lights on either night in this truth hunter I'm going to share brief excerpts from a private November 11th 1988 hypnosis session with John Burroughs done at the home of Kurt Brubaker in Los Angeles this 1988 videotape is deteriorated but as burrow speaks rapidly about walking next to staff sergeant Penniston on December 26th after midnight as they approach unidentified area lights in the trees this may be the closest that any of us will ever get to what happened lights lights a weird oval-shaped light it's it's hovering it's hovering it's hovering it's it's strawberry flashing back and forth it's the white it's white but it's but but there's there's lights below it there's little lights below it there's the orange lights there's a red light it's like Sun it's like the Sun but it's not shaped like the Sun it's like it's like an oval-shaped thing and it's pulsating it's pulsating off our way 10 feet maybe 15 I'll fake it I don't know it's it keeps changing it keeps changing it hopes the light the lights are pulsating that's hard to judge it's hard to judge it's there it's there now it's moving back

this off the ground I don't know I don't want to talk about it Brees police are there the shift commanders they're the the flight chief of security flight she's there our flight she's there there's other law enforcement of the trolls there um everybody was concerned they go they go we lost contact with you for 45 minutes 15 minutes we didn't know where you were we saw the WUSA power saw all kinds of lights in the air they thought they saw something being beamed up in the air but they weren't sure they thought we lost you John we thought we thought we lost you guys well what happened oh we don't know airman Burroughs also submitted to deputy base commander Lieutenant Colonel Charles halt a handwritten statement dated January 2nd 1981 along with a sketch of the lights that he did remember in Rendlesham forest John's handwritten statement says quote the lights were red and blue the red one above the blue one and they were flashing on and off because I never saw anything like that coming from the woods before we Burroughs and C flight law enforcement supervisors Staff Sergeant Bud Stefan's we decided to drive down and see what it was we went down Eastgate Road and we took a right at the stop sign and drove down about 10 to 20 yards to where there is a logging road that goes into the forest at the road I could see a white light shining onto the trees and I could still see the red and blue lights this would move back and forth up and down but the blue and white and orange would come out when it was sitting in one place blue lights would come out of the beam and the white light below blue lights would blink on and off inside the beam plus the beam would be red and orange a white light would come out below the beam in the trees signed airman first class John Burroughs 81st security police squadron security police operations Charlie Flight at RAF Bentwaters Woodbridge John Jim and I went to Woodbridge England in December 2010 with Prometheus productions and their ancient aliens TV crew on the 30th anniversary of all the December 1980 light phenomena in Rendlesham forest our goal was to see if Jim and John could find the original encounter site when John saw the stop sign in this photo on a logging road not far from the east gate he wanted to explore there because John vividly remembered that's where he had been with his C flight law enforcement supervisor Staff Sergeant bud Stefan's when they first saw the strange lights over the trees so we turn we turn it here and I got out remember the drivers on the other side I got out I opened the door I look at putt and it was like static electricity in there it was like a real weird feeling I said this ain't right and I says we go back up there and let him know what's going on I'll let him know because we felt threatened here because we felt like something could happen to us and the fact was that we wanted to get back up there because if something happened to us how are you been explained around here without anybody knowing that's the way we fought and we boogie right back up again chef and I told the controllers what was going on and that's what I remember was but an hour standing and I'm explaining to him on the phone and he called security he was of a respond out to the east gate code to police four or five a spotter to your phone he said you were falling the radio and brought another to the chatter we went but that UFO does not mean why just say that because we didn't want anything being said why would you be concerned that someone said UFO why would that Bobby because of your photo to me meant aliens and what we were doing at the time was I could not tell him what it was it was so bizarre what we were seeing I was trying to explain to him and he wasn't grasping as far as he I guess he was grasping that it was so bizarre that he we didn't call it at your phone he called it the UFO after talking to us we never described as UFO there's some kind of weird lights in the floors and above the trees that we don't know what it is and it's as far as down this throat is starting to look like it's gonna come up the road towards John was talking about sergeant Donnie Dillard John talked with him by phone about the lights and then Dillard called security eight and used the word UFO on the radio which dismayed John Burroughs because he was concerned about the ridicule and harassment that comes to eye witnesses after UFO reports the light phenomenon was then officially confirmed in a statement of witness that see flight shift commander Lieutenant Fred Moran had typed up on January 2nd 1981 a week after burrows and peniston's dramatic interactions with strange lights in Rendlesham forest lieutenant piranha fish aliy stated the date as December 26 1980 and specified the time of events at 3:00 a.m. for reasons unknown because burrows Penniston and Budd Stephan's all insist that the lights in Rendlesham forest could be seen from the east gate soon after midnight on December 26 1980 here are excerpts from sea flight shift commander Lieutenant Fred brands type statement dated January 2nd 1981 quote at approximately Oh 300 hours 26 December 1980 I was on duty at building 679 central security control when I was notified that airman first class Burroughs had sighted some strange lights in the wooded area east of the runway at RAF Woodbridge staff sergeant Penniston said that he had never seen lights of this color or nature in the area before he described them as red blue white and orange staff sergeant Patterson requested permission to investigate I monitored their progress of Penniston Burroughs and Caban sac as they entered the wooded area they appeared to get very close to the lights and at one point staff sergeant Penniston stated that it was a definite mechanical object staff sergeant Penniston reported getting near the object and then all of a sudden said they had gone past it and we're looking at a marker beacon that was in the same general direction as the other lights this may relate to the missing time I asked him through staff sergeant coffee if he could have been mistaken - which Penniston replied that had I seen the other lights I would know the difference staff sergeant Penniston seemed somewhat agitated at this point they continued to look further to no avail at approximately Oh 354 hours which is near 4:00 a.m. I terminated the investigation and ordered all units back to their normal duties I directed staff sergeant Penniston to take notes of the incident when he came in that morning after talking with him face to face concerning the incident I am convinced that he saw something out of the realm of explanation for him at that time later that morning after conversing with Captain Mike Morano the day shift commander I discovered that there had been several other sightings of strange lights sign Lieutenant Fred abran 81st security police squadron close quote Jim Penniston had worked security duties for the Strategic Air Command in the 1970s was a flight security controller from Minuteman ICBMs at moms from Air Force Base in Montana and in December 1980 Jim was see flight security supervisor for flight operations at RAF Bentwaters so he was very experienced with airplanes and plane crashes but he had no background for what he encountered in Rendlesham forest after the December 26th encounter Staff Sergeant Jim Penniston described the lights becoming so bright he could not see and then dimming down so much that he suddenly could see a solid black triangular-shaped craft emerge out of the light he estimated the size as nine feet long with a fin like projection on top of the triangle that rose up to about six feet on the right front side of the craft in Jim's illustration are raised symbols like Braille he said sergeant Penniston sketched the symbols in his notebook that he normally used for plane crash investigations and then he touched the raised symbols with his fingertips there was markings on the craft which were very unusual probably to a half three feet wide if you had a sheet of smooth glass and you took a piece of sandpaper and you laid it on that glass running from the glass to the sandpaper that's how it felt here's something that is odd I lost track of John for like 45 minutes or so I don't know where he was at there's like a 45-minute gap of time there would seem like a couple minutes I don't know what caused the distortion there is confusion about where Airmen edia Van sack was during all this John Burroughs and Jim Penniston think Gavin sack was ordered by Penniston to stay with the truck on the road from which Penniston and Burroughs walked in to Rendlesham forest to follow the strange lights the reason was that their radios were full of static as they tried to follow the lights the plan was that Caban sack might be able to receive a more clear radio signal from central security control if he stayed behind with the truck but at Kevin sack later said that he thought he was with Jim and John one fact is certain central security control could not reach any of the three men by radio for at least 45 minutes when is your very next memory of John Burroughs the light on the crash started to generate to a more white brilliant light is when I backed away from that crash John was maybe 15 feet away 20 feet away standing there because you were afraid of what was happening with this increasing height I wasn't sure what it was done to I don't know exploder the craft lifted off the forest floor went to treetop level and took off an extreme race beat and nothing that I know of could be gone in a blink of an eye I had this feeling and the feeling was that there would be a return sometime of that craft I don't know it was just a very odd Delta flight photographed here in 1980 went on midnight duty December 27th to 28th across midnight while John Burroughs Jim Penniston in edia van sac and Charlie flight were off duty at 11:00 p.m. one hour before midnight going into December 27th Delta flight gathered their guns in the nightly procedure known as guard mount one of the new enlistees who had only arrived at RAF Bentwaters two months before in October 1980 was lori bowen 18 years old the second from the right in the middle row of this d flight drill team photograph lori grew up in Fridley minnesota and immediately after high school enlisted in the US Air Force like all new basic Airmen she was assigned to gate security on Christmas night December 25th 1980 she had been at the Woodbridge main gate and remembers that the base commander Ted Conrad brought Christmas dinner to her and others working the holiday swing shift the next night because she was a basic airman and not given the privilege of driving her own vehicle Laurie Bowen was driven from the D flight guard mount and dropped off for a midnight shift at the east gate this was not normal procedure usually swing shifts left the remote east gate guard shack around 9:00 p.m. but the explanation for putting Laurie there for the December 27th D flight midnight shift might have been concerned about what had happened to Penniston Burroughs and Caban sac the night before Laurie said she and others in D flight were not told anything about the mysterious lights that see flight had investigated the night before apparently those lights and crab for being kept secret under orders from higher authority but that same higher authority would want more eyes and ears on Rendlesham forest in case the lights or the craft came back and that's apparently why airman Bowen was assigned to the east gate and sure enough this is what lorry saw looking north above the forest lorry is an artist and drew this illustration of the small wooden east gate guard shack where she watched a large reddish orange ball of fiery light in the sky that moves slowly straight down if he took three handfuls of coloured fire and put them together and he saw one collar then he saw another color and he saw another car you get this feeling that it's not blinking but that it's turning and then this was inferred on the other side of the runway in the woods there's nothing but darkness from the trees it just slowly disappeared straight down into the horizon where the dark trees were you could tell it was big even though it's like looking at the moon is the moon big you knew it was big because you could see it you know you knew it was off in a distance and you're thinking it's like nothing else you've ever seen you can't even compare it to something because there's nothing to compare it to Laurie what was the first thing that you did after seeing this bright orange light disappear into the forest I remember the metal phone inside of that little wooden guard check you have to open up the metal lid on the wall and I'm loosing it up and calling the best surgeon saying something boss fire or whatever somebody's gonna come out of the gate I don't want to be down here by myself I just saw this huge ball of light just disappear into the forest and then next thing I remember from and Tony being there he was in at least five he came to my date and I remember we sat there listening to the radio which is Motorola as Bonnie lieutenant Champlin Bonnie chaplain under sergeant Bob ball Robert ball and I just remember the fear in her voice she was scared to death and she was just about where are you I can't see anything and she was so scared and this was our lieutenant they said it was just the Horford lighthouse which was ridiculous and I lived in Orford at the time and then they said it was Mars what do they think we're stupid you know obviously it was to shut us up and to cover it all up the big red sphere that Laurie saw and reported to central security control was north of the base a completely different direction from the Orford lighthouse that was to the east and here is what that pinpoint of light six miles to the east and close to the horizon looked like from a farm field no one could even see the lighthouse through the thick trees at the east gate and yet US and UK counterintelligence tried the preposterous lie that all the bright colorful lights and beams were only the Orford lighthouse other military law enforcement people also saw unidentified colorful strange lights that night of December 27th 1980 including senior airman John tremon tozi in police five Airmen Laurie Bowen talked to him at the east gate the lights were red green and white we don't apply the control tower the lights were not blinking there was great steady lights and then be in one spot and then it would disappear go to another spot a pair again go to another spot up there and no noise very weird we watched that probably for a good hour and a half around 2:00 to 3:30 a.m. right we notified our desk sergeant who in turn notifies the sergeant on duty chief leader the Colonel's will notified hold Colonel Charles halt was deputy base commander at RAF Bentwaters Woodbridge in December 1980 what he knew and when he knew it has been unclear for decades so this is significant testimony by senior Airman tremon tozi an airman Laurie Bowen because they both heard on their radio that D Flight shift commander lieutenant Bonnie Tamplin was crying out in fear for help from Master Sergeant Robert ball in Rendlesham forest senior airman tremon tozi from police five knew for a fact that central security control and all the airbase Colonels including Colonel Charles halt were notified about all the lights and the dramatic events that second night of December 27 1980 after midnight that night while airman Laurie Bowen and John tremon tozi were reporting to central security control the strange lights along with the screams over the radio by D flight shift commander Bonnie Tamplin airman first class John burrows was waking up agitated in the early morning hours of December 27th 1980 with quote the strong feeling that the lights were back close quote and he needed to see them again this is Linda Moulton Howe please stay tuned to my truth hunter series on gaia for more surprises about
