KASHMIR–KARAKORAM
– An ex-Army Captain, A.C., tells how during WWII he was shot down near Cheduba island and, once rescued, requested leave at Kashmere. He and another man left Srinagar and went to Rudok and then through the Khesa pass to the northern foothills of Karakorum. They found a cavern that they were looking for… “My companion and I fought our way out of a cave with submachine guns. I have two 9″ scars on my left arm that came from wounds given me in the cave when I was 50 feet from a moving object of any kind and in perfect silence. The muscles were ripped out. How? I don’t know. My friend had a hole the size of a dime in his right bicep. It was seared inside. How we don’t know.”

KENTUCKY, PINEVILLE
– On Dec. 26, 1945, a mine explosion in the Belva Mine trapped several men. When they were rescued some of the men insisted that they saw a “door” in one of the walls open, and a man dressed as a “lumberjack” emerge from a well-lighted room. After assuring the men that they would be rescued, the strange visitor returned to the room and closed the door. Other similar accounts have been reported during similar mine disasters, such as the one at a Shipton, Pennsylvania mine, where similar “lumberjack” or “telephone linemen” type of men have been seen, suggesting that they exist in another time-dimension, possibly explaining why they “knew” the outcome of the disasters. In some cases the strange “workmen“, as if taking the role of guardian angels, had offered trapped men unusual “lighting” to keep them out of the dark, and in other cases as with the Shipton disaster, “astral visions” accompanied the visits of these fourth dimensional [?] visitors.

KENTUCKY, RIVERTON
– Patsey Wingate, a victim of UFO encounters, missing time, MIB limo’s, harassment, black helicopters, police-like cars in a temporal mist, death threats, the works… spoke of a mountain near Riverton where a certain UFO was seen on numerous occasions. While on the mountain she would hear humming sounds coming from underground, then at home later that night she experienced frightening vivid “dreams” of “children underground on the mountain [who] were begging for help. They were in glass cages. Some of the children looked human, but some looked like aliens.”

KENYA, KIRIMAYA
– The African village of Kirimaya, according to Brad Steiger, sat at the base of the so-called “sacred” peak of Mt. Kenya, over which numerous UFO’s have been sighted over the years. Laili Thindu and his shepherd companions listened for several nights to the pounding of the drums in the distant village announcing an upcoming wedding but were startled when bright beams flashed from the soaring lights that were particularly evident in the sky that night and concerned when the drums fell silent. The next morning Laili learned that “all the dancers, all the children, all the livestock – the entire population of the village had been seared to death by terrible streams of light from glowing objects.”
