James S. Thompson Jr. Sighting Report
1964-66
Place: Sulfur Springs, Ok. USA
To all:
Back in aprox. 1964-66 my family use to go to Sulfur Springs there in Oklahoma for vacation. Every year we would go to Look-Out Mountain in Sulfur. Sulfur is one of the most wondrous and beautiful spots in all of Oklahoma. The Spring waters there are ice cold and swimming in them in the summer is joyous and blissful. The Sulfur content of the mud is said to heal skin disorders and every year you'll find people of all races and ages taking mud baths and then hitting the ice cold springs that accentuate Sulfur. The springs are a true gift from God and they give a whole new meaning to the word- "cold"!
On vacation one year we went to the top of Look-out mountain and we watched the skies. Look-out Mountain was a beautiful spot in Sulfur Springs that only a few people at the time new about. From there, the World and Milky Way seemed endless and one could drift away at the wonder and beauty of the Universe. My father loved to fly and dreamed of flying as did so many young men from his era. So it wasn't so unusually for us to go to Look-out peak and "wonder" at the stars in the expansive Oklahoma skies. On this particular night and the subsequent night that followed some of the strangest and most incredible things happened to my family and me and it has haunted me for years. This is the first time for me to talk about this! It seems that here on the Internet that I am not alone, something I've been with this memory for over 30 years!
After we got to the top of Look-out mountain we were listening to the radio as we sat on top of my Dads 1959 Fairlane Ford and watched the beautiful night skies. Suddenly, there was a interrupted and special announcement on the radio station (KOMA). It said something to the effect that some unidentified flying objects were being tracked and seen all across Oklahoma skies and that reports were coming in steadily by people all across the State. (I'll bet this radio broadcast and incident could be verified by KOMA). It went on to say that the objects were headed in the direction of Sulfur Springs. Needles to say, we were absolutely numified at the thought of being on the top of Look-Out mountain ( the highest peak in that section Oklahoma) and we are actually fixing to see a possible extraterrestrial spacecraft!!
The reports kept coming in steadily to KOMA and they continuously broadcasted each report as it happened and in between songs. (At the time KOMA served all of Oklahoma and was the main Radio Station for the entire State, and probably still is today). We waited with great anticipation for the UFOs to appear, and to our absolute disbelief three triangularly shaped flying craft flew directly into our field of view. At the time, we thought we were the only ones in the world to see a actual UFO but apparently people all across Oklahoma were seeing these objects as well. The craft were absolutely quite and moved across the sky very fast (if I were to guess I would say over 500 mph, which at the time was very fast for a low flying craft, but slow enough to stop any sonic boom, I think!). The one thing that really stuck in my mind the most was the absolute quietness of these crafts. That and the lights on the crafts which were blue and white with a pulsating faint glow of yellow. The size of the crafts had to be at least 15 to 20 meters across. (hard to tell). They seemed to be flying very low (possibly to avoid radar) Although they were approximately 100 to 200 meters in front of us they were only about 200 meters above the ground. (this is really just a guess in the distances). they were black in color but the lights made them look bluish. they seemed to have three cone shapes protruding from the bottom in the shape of a rocket exhaust. Also, I noticed an inverted cone shape like an induction path in the forward section of the triangular shape as well as one in the rear. The triangular shape was not a perfect triangle but more a Long triangle. Also, the top part of the crafts seemed to be triangle canted similar to the way a stealth fighter looks except these things were huge. The craft seemed to have a yellowish glow that came from the cones but not like a jet exhaust. It was more like a hi-energy ion emission of some kind. Similar to a glow that a electric arc welder produces in a perfect burn but not that bright or white. It just seemed to be electric or magnetic/electric. It was not like a rocket or jet exhaust. It was smoother and more perfectly consistent. It was a hi-energy discharge of some kind! It seemed to be funneled very similar to a jet exhaust put with the three ports on the bottom seemed to produce less than the single one on the rear and the front one was just a faint glow only. The blue lights on the craft were not so definable as to location. They seemed to just be there, somewhere! They must have been big though because they seem to be the only other color and really dominated the appearance of the crafts. They reminded me of the color of a natural gas blue but seemed to have an important meaning as if part of the propulsion system. Anyway, that's the feelings I remember and the best way I know how to describe the colors.
The crafts were moving so fast that it was just an awesome and incredible sight to see. If you didn't know they were coming and you weren't looking up you would have never, ever seen or heard them! They flew by like a whispering wind. Not a sound, and the blue lights acted sort of like a camouflage of some sort, but we were so close that the sheer size of the ships was absolutely incredible to see. They moved through the air like a feather floating on the wind. But yet they were awesome in mass. Especially three of them side by side. They flew so close and so perfect that if you weren't as close as we were you could have never, ever known their was more than one!! They were not built from technology of this planet. At least, nothing I could recognize then or now, except for the canted look of the top part which did look kind of similar to the Stealth Jet of today but on a much bigger scale and quite different in other ways. No glass windows, no landing gear, no visible rudder, elevator or elerons of any kind. Additionally, there was no wings, the whole craft was a wing I suspect. The thing reminds me today of something we might build in 100 years or so. It seemed very advanced aerodynamically and particularly propulsion wise because of the quietness. I believe it must have used some sort of magnetic/electric ion drive in conjunction with a antigravity drive of some kind. Its the only thing to explain the quietness. But that was 30 years ago!!
The crafts flew on by us and I never seen my father so enthused and talkative. All of us, my brother and sisters were so happy to have experienced something like this as a family (or as people). It was an awesome experience that night to say the least!! But that was just our experience. My Dad experienced much more!
After the sighting, we went back down the mountain and back to our camp ground and talked and talked about the implications of Alien visitors from another world. We listened to the radio and followed the UFO's along with the rest of Oklahoma. Looking up at the night sky, we soon fell asleep knowing we had experienced something incredible. We felt like we were special as we got the grand show right from the top of Look-out peak! However strange that night was, it was nothing compared to the events that transpired the next night which haunt me till this day!!
The next day we woke up and couldn't believe what we had seen the previous night. We tried to explain it away but there was no explanation. The whole day I remember thinking about it as I know we all did. We went swimming all day and headed back to camp for dinner that evening. That night we were all raring to go again back up to Look-out mountain. Even my Dad and Mom were very anxious to go again. In fact, they told us to be sure to get back from swimming early so we could go back to the mountain. At the time, very few people knew of lookout peak. In fact, the parking spots on the mountain were spread so far apart that I don't recall any cars close by.
Anyway, we headed back up the winding road that lead to the top. It actually took some doing to get to the top. The road seemed to wind forever. The camping grounds are so spread out in Sulfur Springs with so many places to see that it's easy to get lost. This was 30 years ago though, so I am sure it has changed!
Next, something happened that changed my life and has stayed with me every since. As we headed up the winding road once again with great excitement and anticipation we were stopped right before we made the final winding to the top section of the peak's plateau. A jeep with two or three Army M.P.'s stopped us and told us the mountain was closed and that we would have to immediately go back the way we came. My father was very frustrated about that and very disappointed for the family. My dad just new something odd was going on because of the previous night, so he turned the car around and drove about 100 yards down the mountain and pulled over on the dirt shoulder toward the inside of the narrow gravel road.
My father got out of the car to go walk up to and around the bend to see what was happening. He wasn't about to let anyone turn us around from a public mountain without some kind of explanation. He walked around the corner and quickly out of sight. It seemed he was gone for at least an hour before we started to really worry about him. We sat in the car wondering what had happened to him. As it got later and later we could see lights going crazy at the top of the mountain but no sounds at all. We saw bright glowing lights and beams of light that flashed like lasers "sudden, distant and accurate". The lights would seem to pick up in activity and die down and then pick up again. This went on the entire time. It almost seemed like a rhythm in the way the lights seemed to work in harmony with each other. It was hypnotic and soothing, but yet freighting and strange! It just wasn't something that you ever see! The lights didn't seem to have any meaning but yet there very presence seemed to indicate a greater and unknown meaning! It seemed that something incredible was happening on that mountain! It was getting very Erie because it got very dark and we were very alone now!
Finally, after 2 hours I, being the oldest boy in the family, volunteered to go up and find out what had happened to Dad, but Mother would not let us leave the car and insisted that we wait for Dad even if it took all night. We waited and waited and then one hour turned into two and then three hours had quickly passed. Suddenly, Dad returned to the car with a very bland and unattended look on his face. It was a disconnected look like he wasn't himself. Even today when I think about his face I knew then that I had seen in his face something that bespoke the incredible events that happened to him. Remembering the look on his face today is in fact a reminder and personal testimony to me that the events he described later in the following weeks after the "Event" could only be absolutely true!!
After he got into the car he didn't say a single word at first and simply proceeded at a sure pace down the mountain! We all kept wondering what had happened to him. Why was he gone so long and why was he acting so strange, as if he had never left the car. We waited anxiously for him to tell us what had happened in those three hours. Why was he acting so robotish and indifferent. Finally, after about two or three miles of driving Mom spoke in a very soft, sweet and caring voice and said; James, (that's my fathers name) what took you so long, honey?
At that point, Dad said the most incredible thing. He said we can't go up the mountain. (We obviously knew that by now as we were already half way back to the camp ground!!!) He continued; the army has blocked it off and didn't tell me anything except to go back down now and that all civilian personal had to evacuate the mountain. He did recall a strange tent with some strange objects and also mentioned that he felt sea sick, or something!
As we talked to him more and more we began to sense that Dad didn't realize that he had been gone for well over three hours! We all began to talk as a family and one of us blurted out; "Dad you've been gone for over three hours!" and he said "WHAT!" He thought we were all crazy! He didn't believe us at all and then he said; "I Just Left 10 Minutes Ago". We then asked him in sort of a family game sort of way; Dad, not looking at your watch, what time do you think it is? and he said it's about 9:30, right? We all laughed and said Dad it's 1:o'clock in the morning! You've been gone for over three hours! He couldn't believe it, but we all soon begin to realize that Dad had been "gone" somewhere!
We headed down the mountain that night, certain that something very extraordinary had happened to our Dad. Somehow he was changed. We all couldn't believe these two nights had happened. Later, Dad recalled some incredible events. Starting about a week after we got back home, he began to have nightmares every night or so. Over the next few weeks I remember Dad and Mom constantly talking about the "Event". Every time they talked, the "event" was brought up and dad would get very emotional and indifferent again, obviously very irritated at something.
One night, Dad broke down and cried in the living room. We all came in to comfort him and see what was the matter. Although we knew it was about the "Event"! For the next hour he told us the most incredible story of Alien abduction. Indeed, that night he finally remembered the night on Look-out peak in Sulfur Springs, Oklahoma when he was taken from his family and his life was changed forever, and ours too!
I am absolutely convinced that my dad was abducted by Aliens. Based in part on what he told us, I believe he walked in to a top secret military operation and actually flew onboard the Alien spacecraft and examined by Aliens. The story he told that night was incredible and I will not go in to details here as I have to think about him, as he will not discuss publicly this very personal and strange experience for fear of ridicule and rejection.
A month or so ago I went to see Dad. I hadn't seem him in five years or lived with him since I was 18, which was 22 years ago. I said Dad, do you remember Sulfur. I said do you remember the UFO's. Dad looked at me with a special look that like 30 years before when we all knew we had shared an incredible event! The family had witnessed the unexplainable together. We shared an experience that few will ever experience. My Dad simply said, with that incredible look that he gives when you feel like a star, "I sure do Son!"
We talked about it and I realized that we had been a part of something that was absolutely incredible and wondrous. But I could tell that Dad had a glimmer of apprehension and fear! I could see something in Dads eyes that said more than I could possibly put into words. With his look he reconfirmed my experience and his. I knew what he knew, and he knew I was there and it happened and we shared that! He experienced the ultimate "flesh and blood" encounter as a Human being! It was the vacation of a lifetime! The impossible made possible! The incredible seen and felt! The Dream of Dreams realized. But yet somehow it all seems incomplete and that's why I write here; now! Reaching, seeking understanding, needing acknowledgment! Just to release myself from the secret of 30 years.
It was very difficult for me to tell this story, but somehow I felt compelled to! It is my sincere hope that if anyone out there knows anything about Roswell or any other Alien encounter and has proof, that they will not fear anything and release themselves from the secret of secrets. The world has a God given right to know the truth and you have a greater duty to mankind as a whole instead of to any particular organization. The secret you have may be the biggest and single most important peace of information the world has ever known. You owe it to the people of this planet "who will protect you" to tell them the whole truth. The Internet is a great place to start. You have nothing to fear but fear itself.
Imagine, you have the opportunity to be the one in our future history books that changed and enlightened the World with a truth that itself is justification for its existence and its access by all of mankind. Let the chips fall where they will! You are possibly an American!!! You can deal with it!!!! And so can the World. Just like you did!!
So please, your Earthly brothers need you more than your Alien secret! Change the World and put us back on path to government "by" the people and "for" the people! No one has the right to order an American or any other human being to keep a secret about an Alien existence. The information is not owned by anyone. It should not be controlled by any one government. Even if it means giving away top secret advantages or knowledge that could damage the Religious beliefs of anyone. Religious people do not deny the existence of Aliens and they can deal with any truth that is reveled!
It is my belief that the right of the people to know of discoveries of this importance out way any government reason for holding back such knowledge even to the possibility of extreme Religious contradictions and perceived National Security issues of the greatest priority.
If anyone wants more information about my experiences I will be happy to tell you all I know. The events I described here are true and as accurate as I can remember. The impression left on me by these events changed my life forever! I seen a spaceship from another world and that is I believe, a fact! My father seen more than you would believe but I know it happened and that's all I care about! Thanks for reading this.
