STATE/COUNTRY: ME LOCATION: Kokadjo/Greenville DATE: 08/12/97 TIME: 20:00 DISTANCE: Just above treetops ALTITUDE: Unknown # OF UFO's: 1 SHAPE: Triangular COLOR: Black metallic SIZE: approx. Football field SOUND: Deep bass thrumming (felt as well as heard) LIGHTS: 4: 3 brilliant white lights, one on each corner 1 small red blinking light in the center of concave underside OTHER: She also saw rivets and seams on the underside, which was concave in the center. ADDL WITN: 6 COMMENTS: The witness wondered "How can something so huge move so slow and not fall out of the sky?" The large white lights were shaped, according to this witness's emailed statement, like this: <) This witness underwent psychological examination and IQ testing to reassure herself that she was not "going crazy"; she had severe nightmares and became practically obsessed with the sighting for almost a month, kept drawing the craft over and over and searched out anything she could find about these craft. She also went to military aviation books and websites trying to find something that would identify what she had seen. She still has nightmares, but not as often now. Her son still becomes angry whenever he sees something on TV or anyone mentions triangle craft. She has asked him why, and he just becomes angrier so she has not pushed the issue. Her daughter says "that was just my friend ghost's cloud ship" but will not go into detail. The witness does not want to grill her children about it or talk about UFOs with them, unless or until they are ready to talk about it with her. She took her son to the hospital when she discovered the burns the next morning. He was feeling ill, whiny, and sick to his stomach. He also had big black rings around his eyes and his face looked swollen. He told his mom his insides felt like they were burning up. The doctor joked "If I didn't know better, I'd think the kid has mild radiation sickness." They took urine sample, and it had a slight amount of blood in it. He was placed on antibiotics and sent home. He was very lethargic (very unlike him, he has ADHD is usually very active). He was ill about 2 weeks and the burns took 3 weeks to heal, leaving a faint scar where the deepest part of the burn was. The burns looked like a line on one side and a large circular blistered and peeling area on the other. He was also tested for spider bite and allergic reaction, with no positive results. Also saw 2 dark helicopters making no sound. About 2 minutes after the helicopters disappeared below the 60-100 feet treeline about a mile away, the triangular craft appeared, going the same direction.
