Summary: Leo Childers reported being taken onboard a spacecraft and traveling to Mars, which he found to be a “dead planet”, whereas the Moon contained cities, which were raised and lowered within the craters. The alien leader, Commander Marcosan piloted the craft on this occasion and an 8-foot (2.4m) tall crewmember, which held Childers out of the cabin window when he became sick (?). This was when they were traveling at 250,000 miles per hour. That didn’t put him off, however and he claims a total of twenty-one space journeys, possibly a record.

Summary: April 8, 1955; Rockford, Illinois
GOC members, on watch, witnessed a UFO near their post and sent in a report to the Filter Center in Chicago. Within minutes, jets were up on an intercept mission, and, according to them, fired on the mysterious object, causing it to explode. Before the explosion, however, GOC reported that a smaller round object shot out of the side of the parent device, then, in horizontal flight, passed up the jets, after which it was seen to turn on edge and disappear straight up into the sky.

Summary: The five year old witness was out in the fields in order to bring the cows home for his father to milk, as his brothers and grandfather fed the rest of the livestock. Suddenly near the farm a very large object white in color and oval-shaped landed on the road in front of him. The witness could feel warmth coming from the silent object. Somehow the witness did not feel any fear and approached the object, touching it. It felt cool to the touch, despite the heat. His next memory was of seeing two “people” come towards him and stand in front of him, one of the figures who was wearing a blue shirt and white pants extended his hand out to the witness and then led him to a doorway on the side of the landed object. His next memory was of standing in the road with his cowboy boots in his hands and his grandfather running to him asking where have he been, it was already 0130A in the morning 9 hours later. He tried to tell his grandfather what had occurred but his grandparent told him to keep quiet about the whole thing. Later his grandfather told him that while searching for him he had seen a flash and then saw a bright object lift up and take off at high speed, when he ran to the location he found him standing on the road holding his boots. The witness only has brief memory flashes of what occurred inside. No details are given.
