This Man Claimed that in 1994 he Met a Blue, Crocodile-Eyed ‘Alien’ in a Military Uniform
He was born in England to an English mother and a U.S. Army Green Beret father, and later lived in Japan, Massachusetts, Germany, and California because of his father’s military assignments.
At about age 10 in San Jose, Jason says he saw a red light come down from the sky, turn into a silver, mercury-drop-shaped object about the size of a camper, hovering just above his friend’s house, silently and very close. He watched it move under a streetlight, then shoot up, orbit briefly with another light, and then one of them streaked across the sky faster than a shooting star; his mother saw part of this with him, and his friend later reported his TV flickering and a humming sound. This sighting led Jason to read “Chariots of the Gods” and become interested in ancient aliens for a while, but as a child, he mostly returned to normal life, sports, and friends, without making UFOs a central focus.
Jason joined the U.S. Air Force in the mid‑1980s, partly influenced by his father but following his father’s advice not to join the Army or Marines; his father wanted him to learn a trade, so Jason chose the Air Force for its technical skills and later used it to earn a bachelor’s degree. He first worked as an airframe repair specialist on large aircraft like C‑130s and KC‑135s, fixing structural cracks, landing gear tracks, and rivets, before being retrained in signals intelligence due to overmanning in his original field.
As a signals intelligence (SIGINT) specialist, Jason monitored telecommunication signals on U.S. military installations, which required strong privacy training because he was listening to Americans, and he had to report threats like planned violent crimes to investigative agencies. He says his work expanded from radios to satellite communications, cell phones, and computer traffic over time, and during Desert Storm, he and his team intercepted information about Iraqi civil engineers being moved, which led to changing U.S. plans to protect those engineers from ambush while they dealt with oil-filled burn pits.
After Germany and Desert Storm, Jason requested western locations like Nevada, Hawaii, or Colorado, and was assigned to Nellis Air Force Base near Las Vegas, living in North Las Vegas. At Nellis, he trained other SIGINT analysts and also received special prototype training to cross over into electronic intelligence (ELINT), working with radar data—this is how he met his future wife, who was an ELINT “scope dope” assigned to the same unit and trained him.
Jason took part in “Red Flag” exercises at Black Mountain and the wider Nevada Test and Training Range, staying for two‑week rotations in small towns like Beatty and Tonopah rather than commuting daily from Las Vegas. He describes how, while training at Black Mountain, people casually pointed across the desert toward the Groom Lake range and talked about “Dreamland” and UFO rumors, which was his first time really hearing those stories in that context.
A few months after arriving in Nevada, Jason and several other analysts were quietly approached by colleagues and told they were being considered for a special access program (SAP) located at Groom Lake. They were asked if they would submit to a full‑scope (lifestyle) polygraph, which probes their entire life history for trustworthiness; Jason agreed, saying he had nothing to hide, and took the polygraph alongside a scientist who was also being onboarded.
After passing, Jason got a call on a Friday telling him to pack his bags without being told the destination, and the next day, he was picked up at his dorm, driven to a special secure part of McCarran Airport, and put on an unmarked “Janet” type flight with other personnel. He noticed that boarding and deplaning were unusually orderly, with no crowding or rushing, and upon arrival, he watched a mandatory security video that introduced the program name, rules, and general mission without openly mentioning aliens.
Jason also notes that he had heard of Bob Lazar in the media but did not know or care about Lazar’s claims while he was actually working at Groom Lake; Lazar had nothing to do with his assignment or chain of command.
1994 Red Flag exercise near Black Mountain
Jason explains that he and his team were driving in a convoy toward Quartz Mountain, with his truck in the lead. He sat in the back seat behind the driver, with another man in the front passenger seat and a young woman sitting to Jason’s right in the back. They always traveled with at least two vehicles behind them so that if one broke down, the others could help.
As they drove, Jason saw a man in a standard battle dress uniform (BDU), just like his own, standing on the left side of the road about a football field away. When the man noticed their vehicle, he started running toward them in a strange way, leaning forward as if he were falling or pushing against a strong wind. At first, Jason thought he was just another soldier in trouble, not.
As they got closer, Jason noticed that the man’s skin had a light blue tint, like someone who is very cold and hypothermic, not a dark or bright blue, but a pale bluish tone under normal skin color. Jason’s first thought was that the man was freezing and needed help, not that he was anything non‑human. When the stranger was only a few feet from the vehicle, and they were slowing down, the man in the front passenger seat suddenly shouted, “He’s got no ears,” meaning there were no ears at all on the sides of his head.

Jason at first thought this comment was rude because he assumed the man was suffering and needed medical help. He quickly opened his door and started taking off his jacket, intending to wrap it around the stranger to warm him up. As Jason stepped onto the road, shut the door, and looked at the figure from very close range—about three feet—he saw clearly that the being had no ears, eyes roughly twice the normal human size, and that same blue tint to the skin. At that instant, he felt a strong surge of fear, like a jolt of adrenaline, and thought, “Oh crap, this does not look human.”
Jason says that when he and the being locked eyes, it felt like looking into the eyes of a crocodile or suddenly seeing a rattlesnake; his primal fear spiked even though the being was not attacking him. He describes it as meeting a sentient creature he could not explain, similar to the shock of seeing a huge whale underwater the first time you scuba dive, but without knowing what this “whale” actually was. Despite his fear, the situation changed when the being began to communicate with him, which calmed him somewhat because Jason had to focus on the conversation.
The being spoke out loud in a language that sounded to Jason like Norwegian or some northern European language, not English. Jason did not understand the spoken words themselves, but at the same time, he clearly received the meaning in his mind, as if the being was speaking telepathically in parallel. Jason says he could understand everything: the being telling him that his craft was damaged and that he needed material to repair it. (it is unclear what the material name was, but many interpreted Jason as pronouncing something like “tintillium/trintillium”)
Jason then pointed in the direction of “Dreamland,” meaning the Groom Lake/Area 51 complex, and said those people might have advanced metals and high‑tech material that could help. As soon as he mentioned them, Jason felt a strong telepathic wave of disgust from the being, as if the being considered those people primitive or barbaric and wanted nothing to do with them.
Jason confirms he was speaking normally in English, not just thinking, and the being seemed to understand him perfectly. He compares the language effect to speaking Spanish out loud to someone while the listener simultaneously hears perfect English in their mind via Duolingo—one channel is foreign sounds, the other is clear meaning. The being continued talking in its unknown spoken language, while Jason kept understanding the content telepathically.
During the exchange, Jason occasionally glanced back at h is teammates in the vehicle. He says they looked “zonked,” like zombies, sitting motionless and staring blankly, similar to people who have been stunned in the Men in Black movies. Their expression was so odd that Jason almost found it comical, but he also recognized something was very wrong because they were not reacting to what was happening just outside the vehicle.
Jason notes that the driver might have started to roll the window down at first, but likely rolled it back up when he saw Jason opening his door, wanting to keep the cold air out. Jason is not certain about the exact position of the window, because his attention was on the being and the conversation rather than the small details in the car. He says the entire interaction with the being could not have lasted more than about five minutes, though it felt intense and full of sensory input.
At some point, Jason clearly realized, “Holy ****, I’m talking to an alien,” especially after he understood that the being was using an unknown language with a telepathic overlay and after noting that the being’s appearance was completely non‑human. He stresses that he has never before or since had someone speak to him in a foreign language while he simultaneously understood them telepathically in his own language. That combination of physical strangeness and telepathic communication convinced him he was dealing with a non‑human intelligence.
The craft itself was parked off the road in the desert, about 50 yards from where Jason and the being stood. Jason says he looked to his left as he exited the vehicle and saw it clearly in profile. The craft had a bulbous, egg‑shaped cockpit, white in color, roughly comparable in size to the cockpit of a modern fighter jet, and seemingly able to hold about two occupants. Attached to the back of this cockpit was a flat, black, pancake‑like “egg” about a foot to a foot and a half thick, sticking out where the tail of a helicopter would normally be.
Jason compares the overall shape to certain helicopters that have a large, rounded canopy where the pilots sit, except this craft had that big,ig rounded section plus the black disk at the rear and no wings or propellers visible. He emphasizes that, as part of Red Flag exercises, he and his colleagues were familiar with every type of aircraft in the U.S. inventory and many foreign allied aircraft, including bombers and fighters. He is confident this craft matched none of them and was unlike anything they were trained on or saw during the exercises.
Jason says he could take people back to the exact location on that road and point out the spot where the craft sat, probably within about ten feet. He remembers the spot very clearly on the route toward Quartz Mountain. As the conversation continued, Jason ran out of helpful ideas; after being reacted with disgust to the Groom Lake suggestion, Jason told him the only other possibility he could think of was a geophysics professor he knew at the community college in downtown Las Vegas, who might have access to metals or specialists.
When Jason mentioned the professor, the being accepted this as a possible option and said something like “OK” in response. Shortly after that, the conversation ended; Jason did not want to stay any longer and also felt they had reached the limits of what he could do to help. The being then walked back to his craft, entered it, and the craft lifted off.
Jason describes the takeoff sound as a strange noise, somewhat like a squeaking fan belt in a car, but not very loud. The craft rose straight up from its position, then began moving horizontally while rising in a kind of stair‑step pattern rather than a smooth line, which Jason thinks could be due to the damage the being had mentioned, especially affecting the vertical flight system. The craft flew south‑southeast across the range, in a direction roughly toward Las Vegas, and eventually passed out of sight.
After the craft left, Jason got back into the vehicle. At that moment, his teammates seemed to “come to”: their faces no longer looked zoned out, and they suddenly acted normal again. No one said, “What the hell was that?” or reacted the way Jason expected after such an extraordinary event. When he asked them directly if they had seen what just happened, they all said no.
Jason felt this was strange, and he sensed that at least the ranking driver did remember something, because that man firmly said no and added that they should not talk about it. Jason took this as a sign that the senior man had seen enough to be frightened or concerned and wanted the subject shut down. He thinks it is likely that some of the people in the car, maybe all of them except him, experienced “lost time” or had their awareness switched off during the main part of the encounter.
Jason explains “lost time” as a gap in memory where a section of time disappears, either because of a physical blow to the head or, in many abduction stories, because the beings have a way to turn off a person’s consciousness. He mentions reports where car radios and electronics shut down around craft, and afterwards, witnesses realize more time has passed than they remember, even though it felt like nothing happened. Jason believes something like this may have affected his teammates and may also connect to his own later missing time that day.
He then continues the story to describe what happened after they reached Black Mountain. The convoy proceeded as scheduled; they had to arrive at a set time to power up their equipment and start their operational work, so outwardly, everyone focused on the mission. Jason, however, drove in shock, silently replaying the encounter in his head and thinking, “Holy crap, what just happened?”
At Black Mountain, they set up their gear, worked through the mission, and then later returned to their hotel. Jason says that only the ranking man seemed to recall any part of it, because he was the only one willing to acknowledge anything when Jason tried to talk to him later. Around lunchtime that same day at Black Mountain, Jason felt a very strong, strange urge to eat his lunch outside even though it was extremely cold.
He followed this feeling, took his lunch, and walked down the road from the Black Mountain site about 100 to 150 feet. He remembers walking down the road—and then his memory simply stops. That is where his own missing time begins: he has no recollection of what happened after walking that short distance away from the main site.
Post-Alien Encounter
Years later, in 2022, Jason says he was asked by people associated with the UAP Task Force to contact the other men from the car to corroborate the event. He reached out to one former colleague, who initially replied warmly, but when Jason mentioned “remember that day back in ’94, that UFO,” the man never responded again and effectively ghosted him.
Jason interprets this as either fear, unwillingness to revisit traumatic or sensitive material, or pressure to remain silent, although he cannot know the exact reason. He states he is willing to take a polygraph specifically about this UFO encounter and his Groom Lake experiences because he considers himself an honest person and believes he is telling the truth as he remembers it.
He mentions that he has spoken privately, in more detail, to a very small number of trusted people and that some of what he told them included references to operations that could be interpreted as involving non‑human intelligences (NHI), but he stresses he is still trying to sort out what is memory, what is nightmare, and how his mind might have protected him by altering or hiding details.
Jason repeatedly acknowledges that claims about missing time, UFO craft at Black Mountain, and any implication of being ordered to harm an NHI sound unbelievable and can severely damage his credibility. He says his hesitation and emotional reaction are partly because he knows how bad this sounds, even “if it’s true,” and he does not want these aspects to be used to dismiss his documented military career and more conventional intelligence work.
At the same time, he emphasizes that his life story, service record, positions of trust, and multiple polygraphs show that he has generally been considered reliable and responsible within the system. Jason’s current stance is that he stands by what he has described about his UFO encounter and his involvement in a Groom Lake SAP, but he draws a line on discussing the most extreme alleged incidents until he and his psychiatrist can fully unpack them, out of concern for both truth and his own mental health.
