Witness Account

--- NUFORC INVESTIGATION --- INVESTIGATION REPORT Phone interview date/time: 11-29-2025 at 1:50pm PST Summary On 10-31-1974, the witness, identified as T, observed approximately 50 to 60 silent circular orange obs over his property and over the rest of the city of Adkins, Texas. T served in the U.S. Navy for approximately 7 years. Statements T stated that on the date/time of the observation, he was approximately 14 to 15 years old. T then stated that the first craft he observed was approximately 20 to 25 feet wide which he compared to the size of his garage that the craft flew over. T stated that the craft was orange in color, spinning clockwise, and was silent. T added that there was no wind and no air displacement while the craft hovered or when it rapidly accelerated out of sight. T stated that he could see windows on the craft as it was hovering 15 to 20 feet above him. T also stated that he saw humanoid looking creatures standing in the windows inside the craft. T stated that the creatures were standing on 2 legs, were really thin, had large eyes, and very long arms. T added that he also observed what he thought were children based on their size standing at the windows as well. T stated that he watched the craft as it started slowly and silently flying towards a nearby forest. T stated that he decided to follow the craft and ran after it. T added that he was able to catch up to the craft, and was running under it as it continued slowly flying towards the forest. T stated that he observed 3 round lights under the craft as he was easily keeping up with it. T then stated that when the craft approached the forest, he stopped and watched it descend into the trees. T stated that he returned to his residence and thought the situation was over. From his residence, he continued to watch the forest. T stated that the craft ascended from the forest about a half-hour later and met with another similar looking craft that had descended from the evening sky. T stated that the first craft changed its color to dark orange then rapidly accelerated straight up and out-of-sight. T stated that for over an hour, he observed approximately 50 to 60 different crafts ascend and descend into the forest and sky, usually in groups of 3 to 7, and on occasion, by themselves. T then stated that all the crafts looked the same, and were still silent. All of a sudden, the crafts that were closest to the forest descended into the forest, while the other crafts shot up into the atmosphere. T stated that his windows started to shake, and he heard a loud roar in the sky coming from behind him. T then stated that he counted 7 different squadrons of U.S. fighter jets as they flew over his house and headed for the forest. T stated that the squadrons would sometimes circle around the forest, while also flying over the area around his neighborhood. T stated that a black sedan drove at a high rate of speed through his neighborhood, and was headed for the forest as well. T stated that the jets flew around for a few minutes, then left. For the next 40 minutes, everything was quiet including all his dogs and chickens that had run off to hide somewhere. T added that the animal's hiding was very unusual. After the 40 minutes was up, a large number of dark orange crafts shot up out of the forest and silently flew away in every direction. T noticed that just about everyone in his surrounding neighborhood was outside watching the show. T stated that he never did see the black sedan leave the area, but it could have without his knowledge since he was more focused on the crafts and fighter jets. T stated that even though this incident happened many years ago, he still remembers it like it happened yesterday. T also stated that after the incident, he had nightmares about UFOs for quite some time. T stated that his sister might have had a UFO encounter when she was younger, so he gave me her phone number to see if she would be interested in talking about it. On 12-1-2025 at 1:30pm PST I spoke to T's sister identified as R. R stated that her possible UFO encounter occurred in Hall Summit, Louisiana when she was approximately 21 years old. R then stated that she was with 2 other friends when the incident occurred. R stated that the year was 1983 and all 3 friends were walking on a familiar country road at night. R stated that as the 3 of them were walking, she noticed that all 3 of them were walking in slow motion. R stated that all 3 of the girls looked at each other with wide eyes as they continued to walk slowly together. R then stated that she remembers being able to see the road and the forest around her, and the only other thing she can remember was how heavy the air felt. R stated that at the time, she had no idea how long the 3 of them were walking slowly, then all of a sudden, they were walking normally. R then stated that if felt to her like the 3 of them were shoved out of whatever they were in. R added that all 3 of them sprinted to the signal light ahead and then walked home. R then stated that when she got home, her brother T was waiting on the porch getting ready to go look for her. R stated that T told her that she was 3 hours late coming home, and he was worried and preparing to go look for her. R stated that she told T what had happened. R stated that she didn't have any side-effects from the experience until about 3 months later when she felt a lump on the back of her neck. R stated that the lump was on the left side. R also stated that both her friends each had a lump on their necks in the same place. R stated that she didn't go see a doctor about the lump, even though it would swell up on occasion. R stated that her 2 friends told her that their lumps also would swell up on occasion. R stated that when she tried to touch the lump, it seemed to move. R stated that after 20 years, the lump finally popped, and something came out and landed on her laundry room floor. R added that whatever it was that came out hit the floor and sounded metallic. R stated that she and her husband searched the whole laundry room for the object, but couldn't find it. R then stated that the only thing she could think of that happened was that the object disintegrated. Conclusion I checked different media outlets for any 1974 UFO sightings. There were some UFO sightings and the military followed up on an unknown radar target they picked up, but nothing was Adkins, Texas specific. I am classifying both incidents as an anomalous sighting and experience.
