The Encounter
In February 1997, USMC Lance Corporal Jonathan Weant was stationed at Pukala Airbase in Peru for a mission against narcotics. During a night guard detail, he and two other Marines were ordered to secure a crash site of a downed aircraft. They discovered an egg-shaped craft that appeared metallic and emitted a dull humming sound. As they approached, they were ordered to leave by other Marines. Weant was then detained by men in black fatigues and interrogated for 15 hours. He was later sent back to the States. Weant has not sought profit from his experience and remained quiet until 2023. His encounter has led to ongoing interest and speculation about UAPs and military involvement.
