JULY 1955, BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, USA, JOHN:

Brief summary of the event and follow-up:

In 2002, somebody with the firstname of John sent his story to a short-lived website claiming to scientifically study extraterrestrial UFOS and contacts.

He told that in Baltimore in July 1955, he was lying on the grass with his friend Barry, 15 or 14 year-old, and they talked of "the infinite of space and the stars" when they were suddenly "sucked up by a powerful energy" and were then in a room or enclosure with a large window through which they saw a cluster stars. John had the intuition that they were quite far from planet Earth and he was frightened.

His next memory, he told, was to make comments about the strong luminosity and the number of these stars, to what his friend answered "yeah!"

In the next days, he remembered that his friend screamed "How do we get back?", that he thought that he knew how and wanted to tell him but but realized that he actually did not know, and took his head in the hands and said "I don't know."

His friend Barry started to scream, and they were sucked back again through space, and in a few seconds, they were back on the lawn.

They fled to their homes, Barry screaming in terror "I've lost my mind, I've lost my mind."

John says that the memories then faded, and that thereafter he tried in vain to have Barry tell what his memories were.

John said he was now 62, and that it was only 2 years ago, whereas it was on his bed in Thailand, that he remembered that there had been a tall with wraparound black eyes who had walked slowly to him, while as a fervent catholic, he tried to send "loving energy" from his heart "since my religion had taught me that things like angles [sic, angels] (and other worldly beings existed)."

He wrote that he remembered other "terrifying" abduction experiences this summer of 1955 and the following years, that it thought he was going to lose his mind but noticed that the easiest way to avoid madness was to forget about it right away, the more so as it seemed to that the aliens erase memories with a high success rate.

He finishes by writing that there are "many more details to my abductions", but that he does not have time now and will tell about it some other time.

Narratives:

[Ref. ec1:] "ETCONTACT.COM" WEBSITE:

The website published a reader's report, with the location Baltimore Maryland, and the date July 1955, with a bried summary:

A friend and I were taken up into an inclosure but I can't recall seeing the exterior of the object. I can't recall ever seeing a UFO from the outside, and not much of what I saw inside.

It was followed by a longer report:

A friend, Barry Brock (one year older(15) than myself), and I were reclining on a lawn, discussing the infinity of space and the stars when, without warning, we were sucked up by a powerful energy, into a room (inclosure) that had a huge window(?) through which we looking out at a dense star cluster. My intuition, then and now, was that we were at a great distance from planet Earth and that added to my fear.

My next recollection is that I commented to him about the extreme bright clearity of the stars and their numbers, and he merely replied with a , "Yeah!". ( I knew nothing about astronomy and star clusters at that time.) What followed was lost from my memory for many years, but what I did remember within the next few days, following the abduction, was my friend screaming, "How do we get back?"

I thought I knew and started to say something but, realizing I didn't truly know how to return to Earth, hung my head and said, "I don't know."

Barry began to scream and I suddenly felt a powerful sucking energy pulling me through space( the time of travel felt like a matter of only 2 to 4 secounds), back to the place we had been on the lawn. I'm not sure if we returned to the supine position we had been in when taken or replaced in a standing position, because we both instantly ran, screaming in terror, out into the center of the street in front of the lawn. Barry grabbed the sides of his head with his hands and started to jump(hop) up and down shouting, "I've lost my mind, I've lost my mind."

His behavior was so abnormal ( for his personality) that it distracted me from my effort to recall what had just happened to us( and the memory was slipping quickly away). I hollered at him that we should get away from the spot and we both, terrified, began to rapidly walk up the center of the street toward our homes.

We were back, thank God, and I began to try and solidify that fact by commenting on how sweet the warm honeysuckle scented air was and how beautiful the summer night was. But then I noticed that I was rapidly forgetting about the horrific event that had just ended to us, so I said to Barry, "What happened to us.....I'm forgetting....what...?"

But he screamed at me to shut up. I said, "But I want to know what you remember?"

Again, he screamed (louder) "shut up!"

We continued to walk in silence, for about a minute, and as we approached the intersection where we would both turn left toward or homes, I again began to ask him about the freaky event, which caused him to quickly turn left to go down an alley and get away from me, and my questioning. Weeks after the abduction, and several times in the following years, I again tried to get him to talk about it, but he would always quickly walk away as I began to broach the subject. (Once I did get him to listen to what I had been able to recall and his only comment was, "Is that all you remember?" I said,"Yes, what do you recall?" which caused him to get up and walk away without responding.)

I am now 62 years of age, and it was only 2 years ago that I recalled a very critical part of my abduction with my friend. I was lying on my bed, here in northern Thailand, andI was recalling how Barry was screaming and how the volume and tone of the scream rose at one point, and I recalled thinking, "Barry was rasied in a non-religious family and I was a Catholic, so he is totally freaked by this tall alien, with wraparound black eyes, walking slowly up to me while I'm trying to send this creature loving energy from my heart since my religion had tought me that things like angles( and other worldly beings existed). As I recalled this event, it rapidly began to sink back deep into my subconscious, but this time I caught it and realized that it had risen into consciousness on many occasions before only to be instantly forgotten.

I reran the memory through my head so many times that I then began to recall my terrifing abductions that followed that summer and the next few years. At one point, I thought that I was going to lose my mind but I found that the easiest way to avoid madness was to just forget about the abductions as quickly as possible. Plus, it seems that the aliens erase the memories with a high success rate.

There are many more details to my abductions, and the trip with Barry (whom I've tried to locate in the past 2 years without success), but I just don't have the time or a good reason now. Perhaps I'll write more if I hear from your org.

[Ref. ar1:] ALBERT ROSALES:

Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that in Baltimore, Maryland, on July, 1955, at 10:00 p.m., the main witness, John and a friend Barry Brock both teenagers at the time were reclining on the lawn discussing the infinity of space and the stars when, without warning they were "sucked" up by some type of powerful energy into a room or enclosure that had a huge window through which they were looking at what appeared to be a dense star cluster. John's intuition led him to believe that they were at a great distance from the planet Earth and that frightened him. His next recollection was commenting to his friend how bright and clear the stars were and Barry agreeing. His next recollection was of Barry screaming and a strong energy pulling them through space back to the place on the lawn where they had originally been. They were both now in a standing position and simultaneously both screamed and ran into the center of the street. Barry grabbed the sides of his head with his hands and began to jump and down screaming that he had lost his mind. The witness only had brief recollections of the event years later but at one point was able to recall seeing a very tall being with large black wraparound eyes walking slowly up to him and his friend Barry screaming nearby.

Albert Rosales indicates that the source is http://www.etcontact/newsite.

Points to consider:

The indicated source "www.etcontact/newsite", actually www.etcontact.com, Dan Bright editor, appeared in June 2002 in and disappeared in August 2002 with a message offering to buy the domain name etcontact.com. It was supposed to be the home website of "The UFO Research Organisation" and claimed that "the purpose of this organisation is to apply a rigorous, scientific approach to the study of the UFO phenomenon." The now lost website had a "sightings" section, this report was a reader's email published there.
