In 1969 Myself and a friend witnessed a real UFO in broad daylight.
Prior to this incident I had no interest in UFO's. I was aware of pretty much every flying craft available. We were approximately less than 1/4 mile from our incident. It was of coarse saucer shaped, no noise and no heat signature. It hovered above the ground at a slight angle approximately 300-400 feet above the ground. It was moving
very slightly South East of our position. "It was plain as day" at first view I assumed it was a helicopter but when my senses kicked into reality the hair stood up on the back of my neck. We were in a vehicle I was driving, I looked at my partner to see his hair also standing up in shock. We stopped at a light controlled intersection, we were waiting about three minutes for the light to change. During that time period I looked around at other vehicles also stopped at the intersection to see if anyone else saw what we both saw. I pointed at the UFO to expose it to the other waiting vehicle drivers. They looked back at me as if I was nuts! The UFO started moving slowly to the East so I turned left so as to follow the UFO, it paralleled our direction just to the right side of the boulevard. I excellerated some to try to catch up for a better view. The UFO began to gain speed maintaining a distance of about 1/4 mile ahead and to the right of our path. We traveled about two miles this way. Finally the saucer began to gain altitude and speed until it disappeared into the sky and infinity. My partner and myself just looked at each other in dismay. "What was that?"
Who do we tell? It was definitely saucer shaped, it was metallic grayish, it had what I think was a circle of windows on the lower side. I would guess it was over 100 feet across. After all these years since it has bothered me, I pay no attention to UFO reports of lights in the sky, or moving stars, because I know what my friend and I saw was real. I have seen nothing like it since or even close but artist conceptions. I have thought about this incident for many years trying to put some perspective to it. I was in San Diego California, where many types of aircraft flew daily all my life. I was close to Mira mar Naval Station, and many other military stations which known aircraft flew in and out of. So I knew Of pretty much every known flying objects. What we saw was not one of them or anything since. The area of this sighting was within 4 miles of the Convair General Dynamics plant for the Atlas Cintar missile. The UFO was flying directly in the direction of that plant. That is the only connection I can make to the UFO being in the location at that time. Possibly another country spying on that project. Or whatever? It was a UFO, who knows what and why. I have needed to unload the incident from my chest for some time. I remember no information from the local news stations, or from other witnesses. So my story is just another UFO story. I now live in Spokane Washington State and occasionally look into the sky's but have seen nothing worth mentioning since.
