NARRATIVE

I recently had a conversation with ex-Marine friend, who related an event  that occured on the island of Okinawa in 1995. 
He and his buddies were  stationed to guard the motor pool one night, when a very bright beam of  light approximately 20 ft in diameter, shined down on their location.
There was NO sound, and because of the brightness, they could not  distinguish any kind of vehicle.  
He reported the event to the OOD, and while waiting for his arrival, the beam of light decreased to  approximately 8ft in diameter, and then turned off. 
The OOD upon  hearing the obsevers sighting indicated that it was a relatively  common occurance, as noted in a logbook.
Can anyone verify the event, or have a similar experience?
Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate.  PD
