MUFON 95407

I came down and flew across the bay.I could hear the water hitting the hull...it took off and went up at a 45 degree angle, and in a matter of seconds disappeared among the stars. I ran to the guard shack and reported it, but was told not to say anything. I was walking guard duty on the pier at the Marine base in Iwakuni Japan. It was a clear night, there were no clouds that night. I turned toward the water as I was walking,and suddenly a huge bright light came down from my left, and flew across the bay, from left to right. It made no sound...but I could hear the water hitting the hull of the craft...it suddenly shot up at a 45 degree angle and flew up into the sky. I watched as it grew smaller and smaller until it was the size of the rest of the stars...I lost track of it at that time. I ran to the guard shack and called the duty NCO. I told him what happened... He put the lieutenant on the phone. I told him what happened and he said that I did not see anything. He said that if I insisted that I saw a UFO that I would be drummed out of the Marines... So I recanted my statement. I know what I saw, and it was not anything I had ever seen before. You may call if you wish.
