Was There an Underwater UFO Base near Cuba in the 60s?
UFOs were seen flying in and out of “a major underwater alien base” near Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, almost 50 years ago, according to the bizarre claims of a former US Marine. The ex-Marine has come forward to reveal what he and his comrades experienced in 1968 and 1969 while assigned at the Guantanamo Bay Naval base.
Although the dates he indicated “are a shot in the dark,” he recalled “heavy UFO traffic over and around the base” by flying-saucer-type objects, but they were not the flashy saucers shown in the movies. “Most of these UFOs were approximately 50 to 100 feet across, but to the naked eye came off as a dull, hazy hull with a small red light trailing behind it,” he said. “When I stood guard duty on the south side of the base, I witnessed on many, many nights, UFOs landing and taking off out of the ocean. There were large blue lights moving around after their landing in the ocean and then slowly dimming down as they obviously descended deeper.” While manning his post, he witnessed several UFOs flying around the area night after night – “landing and taking off out of the ocean,” he told investigators.
After watching the crafts take off and land, he assumed there had to be a major underwater UFO base in Guantanamo Bay. The witness recalled one event that he described as “most exciting,” that he observed while standing guard, reports Open Minds. “It was approximately 7 p.m. when I stepped out of the guard shack and looked across the fence at the deserted Cuban guardhouse when something caught my eye,” he said. “Behind the Cuban guard shack near the ground was a huge white cloud with a blue/white, baby blue pulsating light in the middle of it.” A few minutes later the silence was broken by a man barking, “Get the hell out of there!” A sergeant was yelling from the observation tower, ordering them to vacate the area.
The Marine and another guard walked toward the barracks, which allowed them to observe the action from a safe distance. They observed intelligence officers pull up to the scene with what looked like a film crew that recorded the alien craft while it hovered for about three hours before shooting off into the west. “The UFO traveled about quarter of a mile, stopped for a moment, then like a bullet, shot straight up in the air until it disappeared,” he claimed. “I would love to go back there just to see if the UFOs are still showing up,” he added.
Last year, a former NASA employee came forward, claiming the agency had covered up a series of UFO sightings code-named “Santa Claus.” Donna Hare said she was told by numerous sources – which she did not name – about three UFOs that landed shortly after one of the moon landings and NASA’s airbrushing UFOs out of satellite pictures, according to The Express.
