Military see UFO in UK
A SHAKEN soldier told last night how he saw THIRTEEN UFOs spinning in the skies above his military barracks.
Corporal Mark Proctor was among three squaddies who spotted the objects while out on night patrol.
He filmed them on his mobile phone and reported the close encounter to Army top brass.
Ministry of Defence experts were studying his report and video yesterday — after ordering Mark and his pals NOT to say anything else about the incident.
The sighting, at Tern Hill barracks near Market Drayton, Shrops, came two hours before helicopter police officers reported an encounter with a huge craft 80 miles away near Cardiff.
And three hours before a couple claimed they were followed by a strange light in the sky along the A5 near Shrewsbury.
Cpl Proctor, 38, of the 1st Battalion Irish Regiment, recalled how he saw the amazing “craft” just after 11pm on Saturday, June 7.
He said: “I was on duty in the guard room when the other boys outside began shouting. I went out to see what the commotion was about and could see thirteen craft in the skies.
“They were zig-zagging, but I filmed two before they disappeared. They were like rotating cubes with multiple colours.
“I made a full report to my commanding officers and gave them my footage. The other lads were as amazed by it as I was.”
A 19-year-old private on patrol said he also saw the “fleet”.
The soldier, who asked not to be named, said: “I saw these things flying in the sky and I told my guard commander.
“There were about 30 lights passing over for a few minutes, very high but not at a great speed. They were bright red. Another soldier saw them too.”
An MoD spokesman said: “We deal with any UFO sightings to see if there was a military threat.”Labels: Cardiff, Mark Proctor, Market Drayton, Ministry of Defence, MOD, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, Tern Hill, UFO

Strange sighting puzzles couple - Shropshire
A mysterious white object has left a couple spooked after they spotted it as they drove along the A5 towards Telford.
Richard and Linda Ortyl were heading from Cannock when they both saw a solid white shape on the left hand side of the road at 12.10am on Saturday. The pair, who live in south Manchester, at first thought the shape could have been an animal.
They said: “This shape was about 1ft wide by 3ft or 4ft long. It quickly glided up the side of the hedges, over the top and curled around a wide tree.
“Our initial thoughts were that it was a white fox because of the shape and size but the movement was too fast, it came off the ground and the movement was not animal-like.” They added: “The shape was also a solid white mass with no definable features of legs or tails or wings.”
Shropshire UFO expert Phil Hoyle said today over the years there had been a number of unusual sightings on the A5.Labels: Cannock, Linda Ortyl, Phil Hoyle, Richard Ortyl, Shropshire, UFO
