cars lined up for days along silver spring road articles were written in the newspaper (strange lights) i saw the ufo 50 ft away.

i was a child (approx. 5-7 yrs old) when this event took place in mechanicsburg pa (1973-1975 approx)  the visions of the flying saucer i saw still are in my mind to this day.  i often asked my mother and she always turned her head and said i was nuts & had one hell of an imagination  (she finally admitted to me that my "visions" were true 25+ years later)  why cant i find any info on the internet about the ufos that were spotted in mechancisburg pa? my mother says there were articles in the newspapers & news and cars lined up for days along silver spring road to try to spot ufos.  the sightings were "blamed" on our government since the navy depot was only 1/4 mile away from my home.  what i saw was real (saucer was hovering several feet above the ground, spinning in circles, multiple bright lights, and i can not even begin to explain the noise it was making)  i froze in time - this saucer was only about 50 feet away from me.  it was in an area directly behind my house that was a "portable toilet" business.  i was playing ball with myself when my ball rolled down a hill & into the lot area of the business - i went to retrieve my ball & this is when i saw the ufo.  i will not give any more info other than the above.  (i want to see if the remaining details of my sighting matches anyone elses) did anyone else witness this ufo in mechanicsburg pa or know of anyone who claims they did?  does the national ufo reporting center know of any info in regards to the above events that took place in silver spring township approx 25-30 yrs ago?  (it went on for days - my mother says many people claimed to see "unexplained lights" in mechanicsburg, but i want to know if anyone else had as close of an encounter as i did) i have a hard time believing my "memory of this event" myself, but i can not deny that it was real. (this phenomenal sighting will live with me forever).
