I want it known in my life I say in my life time what I witnessed.

I I was a young Deputy Sheriff going to work, it was in November, full moon no snow. I walked out the back door and heard a sound that I never heard before, Looked up in the Sky and saw a dome style flying object that just pass the moon. It was very large a saucer outside base with a curve to outer edge, shaped on top was a dome. The dome had all white lights around the bottom of the base. Round windows. The outside of the dome were colored lights, as I remember white, blue and red, the bottom of disk had a dome but not large and no lights. It hovered just over the trees( large mature Oak trees on the south side of farm. I studied the object for it did not move all that fast. Our farm was 1 mile North of Magician Lake. After it went over the trees. I yelled at my father to come outside, when he did he just saw the white lights. When object was over Magician lake it went from slow moving and headed West with a great amount of speed it was gone in seconds.
I then went to work at the sheriff Dept. In Paw Paw Mich. My sgt and I called the South Bend Airpotrt and Kalamazoo Apt. neither had any site if of anything. I though that may be because it was a tree level and would not show up on radar, and when it made a right angle over the lake it moved so fast radar would not detect it. My Sgt. told me to keep it to myself. Over the years I have told people about the incident but I do not think they believed me or just wrote it off. In those days the government claim it was swamp gas. I know what I saw. It was not swamp gas. It made a sound that I never heard of then or thru out the years.
I am now 75 and remember the incident like yesterday. But over the years I have seen pictures of what other people saw and some of those pictures or sketches look like what I seen. When you see something like I did you will never forget it. We are not alone in this universe. I believe the government dose not want us to No the truth. Please believe my story. I just could not keep it to myself anymore, and wanted to report it for the record.
