November 11, 1975
During the mid 1970's I lived in Mobile county 15 miles Northwest of Mobile, Alabama. I cannot remember the exact year, but it was in the late summer. At that time we owned an aggressive German Shepherd dog which feared nothing that was natural. It was full dark the evening that I had stepped out the back door of our house to feed our dog when something huge flew overhead. I had detected a sound, not a whistle, but a swishing sound. Our shepherd ran whimpering into the utility room. What I saw was a huge elongated shape moving about two hundred feet above the pine trees in the back yard. I could see it silhouetted against the stars. There were lights down the side of it, but there was absolutely no sign of any wings. It was traveling from north to south. I have thought about this many times over the years and have only mentioned it to very few. I still refuse to believe that it could have been an airplane. There were no wings on this thing, for if there were wings there would have been silhouetted against the sky and there would have been lights. There were none.
