Hi! My name is James A. and I am an Ex-Military Seeker of the Truth

Hello, ATS!
I am an older gentleman with a long, prestigious military career and I am also of late an IT professional (My speciality is Linux and Linux System Administration). I began visiting ATS about 4 years ago...reading the general / aggregated news homepage and diving into topics as a lurker when they piqued my interest.

My primary goal is to discover, to the best of my ability, the TRUTH to these sightings, visitations, and close encounters. The first incident I keyed into with a high degree of personal investigation was the Rendlesham Forest incident which appears to be the incident against which all other sightings and encounters are compared. I believe Colonel Halt and Technical Sergeant James Penniston implicitly (Why would one place one's illustrious military career on the line for a hoax?) and I especially trust UK journalist Nick Pope's in-depth analysis. Secondly, I believe the military witnesses of the Belgian outbreak of the late 1980's and early 90's supported by radar data and official police witnesses is accurate to a high degree of certainty.

Finally, in my well-ordered and annoyingly inquisitive mind I believe that the the Japan Airline incident over Alaska with its dearth of both radar evidence and first-hand pilot's testimony proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that either we are not alone in the cosmos or that some super-advanced, alien technology allows "Others" to view the present using what physicists call a (windowed) closed time-like curve. I believe it is possible for an advanced entity to open a window into the past or a window across galactic distances and that these unmanned 'Orbs' can be manipulated within a seven dimensional universe to peer into our local, isolated space-time present for the purposes of scientific inquiry, mental manipulation, and plain old patent curiosity.

I believe that a concerted effort by ATS members and guests to collate irrefutable, firsthand evidence in an organised manner and in a single thread might allow us to begin drawing and testing some viable hypotheses. This belief stems from the hundreds of years of subjects that have been treated thusly and the breakthroughs that have resulted in great scientific leaps made from employing exactly this scientific approach in other fields of scientific inquiry.

We are smart, observant humans (Especially here at ATS) and we are capable of vast intuitive leaps when we have the FACTS enumerated in a cogent manner...out there for the big brains to freely contemplate using the scientific method.

Thank you for your time and really, I mean this, thank you for operating at an intellectual level that does not suffer fools lightly. We can do this! Our nature as humans-beings demands answers or more importantly, in this effort, mature conjecture based upon facts and observations we believe to be credible. Thank you for your time...James A. as AnonymousRider

Hello,
i like the way you think...

(windowed) closed time-like curve...

as ex military, you probably have some uncomfortable truths of your own to share.

welcome aboard and have a complimentary tinfoil hat...not sure how much good it will do, given those military tracking bugs.

Welcome to A.T.S.

Welcome to ATS AnonymousRider, it appears you have an open mind for postulating the unknown why at the same time remaining focused enough to know that the facts can only strengthen the "discussions" of many here and not from here. It is hypothesized that many of the UFO sightings are possible Advanced or BLACK project anti-gravity energy crafts or prototypes. But a percentage however may be Unidentified Space Craft or unidentified Dimensional energy transports like the orbs you speak of.
The compartmentalization with GLOBAL information shared between joint Military interest may forbid or prevent some within certain Military classification the opportunity to see test and fly these crafts. So 1 can understand yours and many others interest.
Perhaps things are hidden in these ways to protect many unknowingly AnonymousRider, see you in the boards/forums.

NAMASTE*******

As soon as you started on about Nick Pope I thought "boy here we go" until this. something weird be going on. Welcome to ATS.

Welcome aboard! We think a lot alike.

I'm with you, the JAL Alaska event is incredibly compelling. I don't know what to make of it, but I certainly have to believe something real was observed. The JAL pilot was far too seasoned, and professional to have botched that plus there's the radar evidence corroborates the story quite nicely.

Enjoy your time on ATS.

Hello and welcome!

I apologize, but if you had a long and distinguished military career (I'm not questioning whether you did - thank you from ANY nation for your service), it's likely that at some point you may have participated in a cover up without even knowing it.

I'd have thought the best time to investigate is when you are IN the military and could possibly have at least limited access to some sort of record.

Welcome aboard, sir.

Welcome aboard, looking forward to some interesting conversations.

Hey AnonymousRider, welcome aboard!

Yes, this is an important topic for mankind to discuss, it is so important to our world we should assume it is happening and go from there.

Some other major incidents which you may or may not be aware of include the Battle of Los Angeles, 1952 Washington UFO flap, the Westall incident, the 1994 Zimbabwe school incident, and the Hudson Valley UFO flap (among others).

The funny thing about these incidents is that they are such interesting and fascinating cases you would think these stories would be enmeshed in popular culture/history and referenced all the time; yet as I near my first half decade, a reasonably educated and worldly person, I only heard of all these stories for the first time over the last year or so. So why the cover-up if there is nothing to them?

See you around......

Welcome aboard.

You military guys seem to have cornered the market in ufology. I am looking forward to reading what you have to offer us here.

Welcome to ATS!

Have a steak!

Welcome. Its not a really big mystery, most people just don't spend time working on their own consciousness, trying to care enough about the world around them, and sky watching, while working at trying to get back on task to grow up more. Because they wouldn't think this was a mystery that many minds are needed to make a definitive decision about, as that is not even possible until Mr Et reveals the truth, which I believe is happening, slowly and could take hundreds of years while humanity is expected to make some changes. However if tyranny and renegades win out, they just want resets.

Those two opposite energy forces are enabled by how we treat each other here. Those who experience what's up there and around us, they're not going to waste time seeing how others try to decide on this except to say, go out there and pour your heart out for this planet and all the people being starved, bullied, abused, enslaved, those being murdered and tortured in wars, nature being harmed, all for the elite 1% serving evil. And while out there, remind everyone, (good, bad and inbetween, it doesnt matter, they all can hear you), that we are hybrids here with cosmic parents and that at least half the universe in this duality is positive, that means far better laws protecting their people than we have here.

Ask for everyone to be freed and remedy of law.

Why? Well for a conactee it brings alot more contact.

If you haven't had proof for yourself yet, and they never give proof for the world, thats in their hands, and the world's economy would grind to a halt, just about everyone would starve, unless they took completely over, so its more a test, individual, then standing up for the people, for nature, for help, for inspiration, usually gets some sightings.

Logical left brained mind isn't really going to get out of their box through discussing it, they need to get into right brain more. ie methods. Meditation. Nature hikes. Bird song. Watercolor or art. Music. And skywatching.

So in short, meeting of minds of the most rational, isn't going to solve things as much as diving into skywatching and seeking to really stand up for equality and freedom and health/happiness of all including nature, and doing things that enhance right brain for communication skills.

Because if you get a siting, or more, contact, then you can join the rest of us nuts who everyone tries to ignore, but good luck on getting everyone on the same page.

I, too, like the way you think. Thank you for your years of service.
Welcome to ATS, and I look forward to reading more of your skilled contributions.
Since you describe yourself as IT Linux savy, what role do you think "Game Theory" may play in this paradigm?
How do you think portals can be opened, and the time wave manipulated?
Also, there are threads, here, that suggest we, as a population, are being used as an energy source by "others"…...

Very interesting post which I read with great interest. I look forward to reading more.

Wrong thread! haha

Once at Yuma Proving Ground we were warned away from a large hangar. The people guarding it were what would now be classified as MIB. I was a stupid kid at the time and thought I knew everything about anything.
