Full Description & DetailsI was 9 years old and heading home from a babysitting job in the summer of 1965. I said good night to the family and said I would see them tomorrow. I left, I was about three minutes from their home when I notice an object in the sky. It was nightfall, the stars were out and it was very clear. I am not sure why I looked up. I looked up and saw the bright light. At first I wasn't scared. I was curious, but as I moved it began to move with me, I ran and it was faster than myself. It was in front of me in a matter of a split second. I stopped to gaze up at it and it hovered above. Then all of a sudden it moved, It moved like lightening. I couldn't believe how fast it moved. I was terrified, I could feel my heart beating, then I stopped being scared and stood there watching it and it seemed like hours, but it was only a few minutes. I wasn't frightened anymore, not sure why I wasn't. But I do remember looking up as it moved in a quick motion. Like a quick jerk. then it was in another position. It did this for three positions and then it left so quickly, you couldn't see where it went. Like magic. I started walking home fast. On my way, my brother met me. Was coming to check up on me. I guess, I was running late, it only takes about ten minutes to get home from their home, I took time to watch the object and wasn't keeping track of time. My father worried and sent my brother to see if I was playing around. I never told him what I saw. I am not sure why? But to this very day, I have told but only four people, my husband, two sons and a friend. I never mentioned it again. I found out what they were when I got into high school. When it was a topic in our english class. I suddenly remembered the object I viewed when I was 9 and realized what I saw was a UFO. I kept asking question upon question and couldn't get my hunger for the topic satisfactory. So I began to read about UFOs. After the year of high school ended, I never thought much of the sighting. I seem to reflect on it now and again. And wonder? Witness Background12th Grade Education. Some college. Worked for the State of Alaska, Dept. of Word Processing. Homemaker from 1988 to present day. Other CommentsI know what I witness back in 1965 was a UFO. I know that for sure now. I think about it more and more. The more I ponder, the more convinced I witnessed a UFO.
