The Witnesses

On November 5, 1975, seven men witnessed a spacecraft from another world hovering silently between tall pines in the Apache-Sitgreaves National forest of north-eastern Arizona. One of those men, Travis Walton, became an unwilling captive of an alien race when the other men fled in fear. Here's what they say about their experience:

	"If I had to do it over again I wouldn't get out of the truck."
	In 1975: "I've been working these woods for over ten years and this is the damnedest thing that ever happened to me!" And in 1995: "I've been working these woods for over thirty years and this is still the damnedest thing that ever happened to me!"
	"We couldn't believe what was happening. The horror was unreal."
	"I know what I saw—and it wasn't anything from this earth!"
	"I saw a bluish light come from the machine and Travis went flying—like he'd touched a live wire!"
	"That ray was the brightest thing I've ever seen in my whole life!"
	"The UFO was smooth and was giving off a yellowish-orange light."
