The Encounter

Linda Molton Howe presented at a gathering in Denver about a UAP encounter involving Staff Sergeant Monroe Nevels. This event occurred on December 28, 1980, at RAF Bentwaters near Rendlesham Forest. Nevels described a top-secret investigation ordered by the base commander regarding strange lights and a craft observed by US Air Force personnel. On December 26, Airman John Burrows and Sergeant Jim Penniston approached these lights and reported seeing a triangular craft emitting various colored lights. They experienced radio communication issues and felt a strange sensation. After the encounter, Burrows had no memory of the events but later submitted a report detailing the lights. The encounter led to ongoing interest and investigation into UAPs, significantly impacting the individuals involved.
