UFO Photographed – Strange Circles and Metal Littered in Field

"And in case you are wondering why we single out the Chersmie farm near Tangipahoa as the center of UFO activity, that is the place where photographs of UFOs have been taken. Where strange bits of metal have been found in the pastures and where strange circles have been found in the grass which some people claim are spots where UFOs have landed."

To make the mystery even more confusing is the presence of the National Guard and a mobile radar tracking station.

Now it is quite possible there is a rational explanation for the presence of this unit. But it does seem strange that one appeared near the Cheramie farm in “Tangipahoa last weekend. I saw the trucks myself and they were there. It is a curious coincidence that they appeared near the Cheramie farm at the height of the UFO activity. I am sure they could have been there for a hundred other reasons. But it is curious just the same.

In fact the area around Tangipahoa has been known as a UFO hot spot for nearly a hundred years. I have heard old-timers tell me how they used to see strange lights in the sky when they were driving their wagons back from Greenburg.

But several years ago Mrs. Robert Cheramie startled the area when she said that she found strange rings in her pasture where she thought UFOs might have landed. They had seen strange sights in the sky for sometime and the rings on the earth really startled them.

I personally went and examined them and I must admit they were curious. We found six of them. All six wereexactly 12’ 6” round and there was a section on part of them that looked like a bite had been taken out of one-like a bite taken out of a round cookie. The grass was mashed down in this area and Mrs. Cheramie said that she thought this was where some kind of a ladder swung down to the ground. In the center was a small mound of distrubed earth and lines reached from the center to the outside rim

The outlines were traced out on the grass with a black powdery substance that stuck to the grass. it was as if the grass were coated with black flour that bad crusted to the stem and leaves of grass.

All six circles were identical. All six had a “bite"taken out ofthe outer rim and you could even see where two of them overlapped like the rings left by a wet glass on a dry counter

The black substance was identified by agricultural authorities as being a form of leaf mold and undoubtedly it was, but it was curious that it apperared in such exact shapes.

I mean you would think leaf mold would appear in irregular patches with some big and some little. What makes the appearance of the black substance peculiar is not the substance itself, but the fact that the shape is so regular–as if someone cut them out with a cookie cutter.

And then there is the photograph taken of an alleged Flying Saucer at the same farm. The picture was taken by a Kentwood business man who had been hunting in the fields at Cheramie's. He had killed a limit of doves and his little boy wanted to see where he had been hunting. He drove his son and wife out there and they saw a round flying object hovering in the air. He quickly grabbed a Polaroid camera that he had in the car and snapped a series of pictures, one of which is reproduced here.

[...]

And there is the mysterious metal which appeared all over the Cheramie fields–these are the same fields in which the circles appeared.

According to Mrs. Cheramie, the field was covered with a metal that looked like aluminum straw. She brought me a little bag of it and we have tried to take a picture of it. We tested it by seeing if it would fog a film and it does not appear to be radioactive. [We do things like that when people bring us debris they thing is from a Flying Saucer. Frankly, we don't know what the stuff is, but we don't want to take a chance on lighting up like a neon bulb.]

And so there you have it. A summary of the latest in local Flying Saucer activity.

UFO NEWS | Test Confirms Roswell Debris is Not From Earth

Roswell Metal Found By Frank Kimbler

Open Minds Magazine
7-12-11

Alejandro Rojas     A teacher at the New Mexico Military Institute in Roswell may have discovered the first scientific evidence of manufactured debris made on another planet. Furthermore, this debris was found near the location where pieces from an alleged flying saucer were discovered outside of Roswell in 1947.

Frank Kimbler teaches high school level Earth Sciences and college level Geology at the New Mexico Military Institute in Roswell. He says he has always had an interest in UFOs, and actually had his own unusual sighting in his twenties. So when he moved to Roswell, he decided to put his expertise to the test and take a shot at investigating the most famous UFO incident of all time, the crash at Roswell.

He says his main goal was to find some physical evidence. He started by looking at some satellite imagery of the alleged “debris site.” This is where rancher, Mac Brazel, had told the Air Force he had found pieces of the crashed object. Kimbler used these images to enhance the infra-red in order to highlight areas where the ground was disturbed. He was surprised to find an area that was similar to what witnesses had described. It was about ¾ of a mile long and a few hundred feet wide, and facing the direction witnesses had reported. He also noticed this area had very straight edges, something unusual for a natural occurrence.

Time and Perseverance Ends the Interception

Interception Case Closed
By Dennis Balthaser
© 6-1-09


Searching for the Truth
Interception Case Closed     After 12 years my experience with alleged United States Air Force OSI, (Office of Special Investigation Agents) can finally be put to rest. The end results are not what other researchers that worked with me on it expected at the time of the incident, but it is reassuring to know that after all this time, I can now publicly state what we believe took place and I can move on to other investigations.

For those not familiar with “the Interception” back in June 1997, a full account of the incident can be read at: http://tinyurl.com/nsb4oq

As a brief recap of the event, I’ll try to summarize it in this editorial, and propose the conclusion arrived at with the help of other researchers that became involved 12 years ago.

I had been volunteering at the UFO Museum in Roswell less than a year as the UFO investigator, when a phone call was received from a gentleman in Oklahoma that stated his dad had been involved with the Roswell Incident as a military policeman, and he had a piece of metal from the debris field that he wanted to get rid of. Several phone calls took place between the son and myself to arrange a meeting in Oklahoma to interview his Dad and get the metal for testing. Only three people at the UFO Museum, (the Museum Director, Deon Crosby, two founders of the Museum, mortician Glenn Dennis and Max Littell), were aware of the phone calls, and the pending trip I would make to Oklahoma. Since my son was going to college at Oklahoma State in Stillwater, where the gentleman’s son’s phone calls originated from, I used a visit to my son as a cover story for anyone that questioned why I wasn’t at the Museum.

Roswell To Stillwater Map
Upon arriving in Oklahoma I was unable to make contact with the gentleman’s son, during 3 phone calls I made to the only phone number I had, leaving a message on their recorder each time. About 3:30 a woman returned my call and said to meet them at a Denny’s restaurant at 7 PM. I went to Denny’s, and a man and woman came in fitting the clothing description she had given me on the phone. The gentleman said, “Are you Dennis”, and I said, “Yes”. He said, “The gentleman you planned on meeting will not be here.” I asked, “Who are you?” He said, “We’re Special Agents of the United States Air Force, Office of Special Investigations.” I said, “How did you know I was coming over here” and he said, “We knew Monday that you’d be here Friday.” I asked, “Is my phone tapped” and he said, “You know how we do business.”

That meeting at Denny’s lasted 3 ½ hours, talking about the alleged gentleman that had the metal, the Roswell Incident, Area 51 and other UFO related events. He had a New Mexico map and we talked about the crash sites, and he had drawings of UFOs that we discussed. Not knowing who I was dealing with and uncomfortable with the situation I was in, I didn’t take any notes during the meeting with these two people. The younger lady with him didn’t talk much during the meeting. During our discussions he did mention things that I could verify, but also made statements about the Roswell Incident that I hadn’t heard before.

Upon returning to my hotel, I made a cassette recording of everything I could remember from the meeting, and on my drive back to Roswell made notes when I remembered something else. I made several more phone calls to the son upon returning to Roswell, describing my disappointment with the events that had taken place, and each time someone would come on the phone claiming to be representing the United States Air Force, OSI office.

For about 5 days I was paranoid, putting tape on my vehicle hood and fender, (an old police trick), and not knowing what I’d find when returning to my residence each night. I lost weight over the next few weeks and finally contacted Stanton Friedman, since I was now in a situation I had never been in before. Stanton suggested that I go public with the “Interception” for my own protection, which I did by combining my notes into a lecture presentation that I presented at the UFO Museum in October 1997 to a crowd of over 200 people. Stanton was right, and I did feel relieved when I publicly exposed the experience. I had also confided in Don Schmitt, another well-known Roswell researcher, as these were both researchers that I had worked with and respected their experience.

Shortly after I went public, another researcher, Frank Warren, got involved with my attempt to determine who I had been dealing with, and more importantly what their motive was by having me come to Oklahoma and being unable to get the results I was seeking. Frank had been involved with UFO research since the 1970’s, and today Frank’s research has evolved into one of the most informative website blogs on the Internet, www.theufochronicles.com and we have had an outstanding relationship for the past 12 years. I am forever indebted to Frank for the untiring research he has done, particularly his perseverance into “the Interception”.

OSI Badge & ShieldFrank has discovered that I was set up or hoaxed by the “Interception”, and that it wasn’t the first time this guy claiming to be an OSI agent has scammed someone. Perhaps his motive was the UFO Museum, but as the “Volunteer UFO Investigator” for the Museum, (as determined by the then staff), I was the victim. The woman at the meeting turns out to now be the ex-wife of the alleged agent who met with me, and has admitted to her ex-husband perpetrating such hoaxes on other occasions, to other individuals.

For the past few years when doing the “Interception” lecture or discussing the event, I have contemplated legal action against this individual, since it turned out that he was impersonating Federal agents, and that I was hoaxed by him. It would seem to me that the United States Air Force would be interested in knowing that someone is impersonating their agents, or perhaps the FBI would be interested in putting an end to such an individual’s actions.

When it went down in 1997, I really believed that I was on to something, as did other researchers that I confided in pertaining to the Roswell Incident, however I think it’s also credible that the truth has come out thanks to our research and teamwork. Admitting that the “Interception” was a hoax is to me an example of how good research can produce positive results and a conclusion to an event or incident.

I’ve learned a lot about such a situation, in the event an opportunity such as this came up again, and I’m thankful that I have access to other researchers that share my same desire to find the truth. The “Interception” happened just as I described it, and it precipitated an investigation, to which the end result exposed a fraud. I will leave the “Interception” experience posted on my website, (adding this final account to it) and hope that it will serve as an example of good research.

      AURORA, Texas — A century-old legend of aliens in Wise County could become part of history.

University of North Texas researchers are analyzing pieces of unsual metallic objects to see if they could have come from a UFO.

Some people believe the metal came from a spacecraft that crashed in Aurora back in 1897.
