UFO Sighting Over McAlester Oklahoma Munitions Depot

Date: 1975
Time: 7:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: Five or more.
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Red flashing light.

Full Description of event/sighting: I was an MP at McAlester navel depot, I was patrolling in a 1/2 ton pickup, when I went into one of the bunkers which was covered in ground and grass over a concrete locked door, we had to make sure the locks where secured on the bunkers and you could drive threw like a tunnel. The truck stopped and I could not get the radio to work or the truck to start.

So I had to walk to a call station which looked like a phone on a telephone booth with a gray box, as I picked up the phone, I glanced back and upward, it was getting dark or dark can't remember, and there was a red flashing light. I thought it was a tower light flashing which was not unusual at the time. But then it moved at high rate of speed, 500 or thousands miles per hour, moving from the still position to a south east direction then to south west direction then back to the start position, that's when I contacted the head quarters.

They sent another patrol out to pick me up and the officer of the day checked the airport and there where no airplanes or any traffic out at the time. Then there where more reports coming in all the time. There where reports of lights being beamed down on the bunkers from other patrols. As I was getting discharged I had heard that the army was taking over the base.
