BOOMERANG SHAPED OBJECT AT TREE TOP LEVEL, VERY LARGE, BLACK AGAINST THE NIGHT SKY, NO LIGHTS, BUT SHOT OUT A FIRE BALL [ LOOKED ABOUT THE SIZE OF A BEACH BALL ] SO FAST THAT IF I HAD BLINKED I WOULD HAVE MISSED IT. SAT PERFECTLY STILL, NO SOUND, AFTER A MIN. OR SO IT TURNED TOWARD THE WATER AND HEADED IN THE DIRECTION OF NORFOLK VA. IT WAS AS IF THE AREA WERE DEAD, NOTHING ON THE STREET, NO DOGS BARKING, MY COMPANION AND I CONFIRMED WHAT WE HAD SEEN. SIGHTING SEEMED TO LAST 3 OR 4 MIN. BUT ARRIVAL AT OUR DESTINATION SHOWED THAT WE HAD A FEW HRS. THAT WE COULD NOT ACCOUNT FOR. HAVE HAD MEMORIES SURFACE OVER TIME. I AM NOW 61 AND I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS EVENT. I FEEL IT HAS BEEN PIVOTAL IN MY LIFE.
