The Encounter

The person in this account is retired Air Force Technical Sergeant Dan Sherman. He served in the military in the early 1990s and was recruited for a classified program called Project Preserve Destiny at the NSA. During his military service, he was informed that he had a special telepathic ability due to genetic alterations made to him while he was a fetus. This program aimed to decode alien signals related to abductions. Sherman describes receiving these signals in his mind, which he refers to as intuitive communication. After the encounter, he feels that his worldview has changed significantly, and he believes he has been tracked by the NSA since childhood due to his unique abilities.
