Gigantic sphere covered with triangula patterns of various and continously changing colored light, totally silent propulsion sys.First of all the date of this incident has been so long ago that I am not sure of the particular month or day, though I know it was between March and may. Also, the witness count of seventy plus represents toses imediatly around me, but does not reflect the thousands of host nationals who witnessed the spheres as it flew form Clark Air Base to Cubi point Naval Air station. Or the Two F-4 Phanthom aircrews or the two A-4 Skyhawk pilots that were circling the object. It took the aircraft between six to eight second to traverse from one side of the sphere to its other before dissappearing behind it. It was covered in continually shifting triangular patterns of colored light. It was talk about on the local philipine radio broadcast for nearly a week, though not on the U.S. Arm Forces radio. Totally silent. Gigantic in size. I serve aboard the USS Independence; CV-62, I estimate that cut up, ten carriers her size could have fitted into this craft. I and my finance at the time, who later became my wife witnessed the phenonenom after getting off of the base shuttle bus in front of the Cubi Point Chow Hall. The base taxi stand was there also. Between the bus load of people getting off and those waiting to board and the people waiting for cabs as well as the people coming out of the chow hall across the street, I estimate that there were atleast seventy plus people around us. I grew up in the air force and my rate in the Navy was that of an airdale. I flew mainly aboard SH-46 Sea Knight choppers. I am very verse in both military, commercial and general aviation aircraft. I am sure that this vehicle was not of any technologies that I am aware of in either construction or aerodynamic properties. I was also assigned several years later to the Naval Air Test Center at Patuxent River, in Maryland. There I came into contact with some of the advance airframes or technology could produced in the eighties. I've discussed what I saw that night in the Philippines with some of the best minds in the disciplines of aeronautic design and theory. None of them have ever been able to tell me what I saw that night. Of note, that I have always found interresting, is that the day after the sighting, my former wife, whom as I said was my finance at the time of the sighting, was a live in maid who worked in base housing. That evening when I met her at the bus stop in front of the chow hall, she was very hesitant to talk about what we had seen the night before. She said that the enlisted service man whose family she worked for. Upon returing home after work that day, asked her if she had seen anything unusual the night before. She told him of the sighting. He told her that he had been in a meeting with other servicemen who had famlies on the base that day. They had been told to inform their domestics that it could cost them their jobs if they discussed with anyone what they had seen the night before. Also as in her case, my permismion to request to mary her could be denide, even though it had been approved. Or she may find it impossible to pass the American bried course which was mandatory befor we could get married. Cubi Point Nas was located atop the hill range abouve Subic Bay Naval Operations Base. From the vantage point which we were at, We could see the object approacing from the north. The only sound associated with it were the turbines of the fighters that Clark air base and Cubi Point NAS had launched. It turned and proceed to slowly fly over Cubi and off towards the Marine Ordance Magazine depot. I estimated from the the two different types of interceptors, of which I was toatll;y familiar with, that they and this object were approximately eight to nine hundred feet in the air. The triangular patterns of light were continually changing by the second in a rainbow of colors. I lost sight of the craft after it crossed behind a ridge. I later heard that the object dissappeared over the South China Sea ... how I don't know.((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that date of incident is approximate. PD))
