This case continues to happen despite cries of hoax, flares and
declarations of "it was venus"..judge for yourself. If you're
ever down this way, bring your skeptical attitude and a camera
with lots of film. Also any IR equipment you may have.

GULF BREEZE, FLORIDA WITNESS STATEMENT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Visitor relates Gulf Breeze Sightings
I am here from Birmingham, Alabama visiting with my son and his
wife, and have gone with them to skywatch a few times. I have had
five sightings since September 1st, 1991. The first two sightings
with my own eyes, I saw a bright light in the sky and that was not
an airplane, star, or helicopter. The light seemed to be pulsing
from red to white and got very bright and then dim and then
brightened again for about 4 minutes, then would go out just as if
a light switch were turned off.
Thursday, September 5th we had a sighting of a bright thing in the
sky that everyone said they could see rows of lights, as if they
were portholes. I did not have binoculars and could not see
anything but the bright light the same as the other nights. The
next day, Friday the 6th of September I shopped for a pair of
binoculars. We skywatched again that night and the most
spectacular thing appeared in the sky again and with my
inexpensive pair of binoculars I could see everything the others
saw. The object floated slowly across the sky and seemed to have
rows of lights all the way around, as it floated slowly it turned
on its side and turned all the way over before it turned off its
lights.
Again, Sunday, September 8th we went sky watching and the same
object or one that looked the same as Friday night's sighting,
appeared again with the same rows of bright lights circled around
it. This sighting lasted about 45 seconds before it turned off
it's lights.

INVESTIGATIVE SIGHTING REPORT

MUFON Investigator Describes Sightings
by
Joe Barron, MUFON Investigator
A large UFO and a smaller one were witnessed by a group of UFO
watchers on Sunday night at 8:20 p.m., September 10, 1991 at the
south end of the Pensacola/Gulf Breeze bridge. The sighting
lasted less than a minute and was described as a small red light
and a larger one that faded almost immediately after being
sighted. The smaller red light stayed fixed in a permanent
position before fading out. The UFO position was approximately 45
degrees on the horizon in a westerly direction over Old Navy Cove
in Gulf Breeze. The watchers consisted mostly of Mutual UFO
Network (MUFON) investigators and others who wanted to see a UFO.
Photos were taken and will be analyzed for additional information.
The size of the small UFO was about the same as the light on the
water tower; the larger about 10 times bigger. The distance from
the sighting area and the size of the UFOs is unknown at this
time.
This sighting followed a previous sighting which occurred on
Friday night, September 6, which, as one witness said filled the
entire viewfinder of his camera. It was judged to be very big and
fairly close. The energy field, a superstructure of some kind and
windows were observed. As is the custom of MUFON investigators,
photos were taken and are being analyzed. The sighting area was
also the south end of the bridge and the direction of the UFO was
over toward East Bay. Your chances of seeing a UFO are very good
if you go to the area every night.

Twenty witnesses see UFO "portholes"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gulf Breeze Sentinel - Sept 12, 1991
Over the past year many local residents and visiting tourists have
reported seeing a strange re light hovering in the skies over
Gulf Breeze. Truly enough, this red light puts on some
spectacular aerial displays, but it never really measured up to
the Sentinel's First UFO Rule, which is: Did you see the
"portholes"?
A great deal of time and equipment has been used in an effort to
identify this red light UFO but until a few days ago all that
could be said by the witnesses was "I saw a light." On Friday,
September 6, 1991, 20 people gathered at the south end of the
Pensacola Bay Bridge. Most were hoping to see anything and the
red light was high on their list of possibilities. (It has been
seen over 70 times since January 1991.) Witness, Vickie Lyons
said, "On this night what we saw was stunning. It has changed my
life!"
This is a summary of what a few of the witnesses listed below had
to say: In the sky over Gulf Breeze at approximately 60 degrees,
a UFO appeared, "portholes" blazing and traveling from south to
north. It was so large and close enough that the ring of
"portholes" were distinct separate lights. As it crossed the key,
the main body of the object blocked the stars. At one point, two
minutes into the four minute sighting, the UFO slowed to a hover
and performed a 360 degree barrel roll. It then proceeded to the
north, turned vertical and rapidly accelerated up and out of sight.
Two nights later, Sunday, September 8, 1991, another crowd of
residents gathered at the Bay Bridge and were treated to a
"porthole" lighted UFO. Many photos were taken along with a
video.

UFO Investigator Reports
Second Daylight Sighting
by
Joe Barron, MUFON investigator
On Sunday, September 15 at 2 p.m., a very large UFO and a
smaller unit were seen in the area of Santa Rosa Shores and
Highway 98. Both were metallic in color. The larger appeared to
have appendages which circled the object and described by the
observer as "tree branches". It also had what appeared to be
layers, or structures, placed on upon the other as plates. The
smaller object was shaped like a bow-tie. the larger was
estimated to be 45 feet wide and 60 feet long. The smaller
appeared to be about 1/10th in size when compared with the larger.
Both objects rotated clockwise in a circular fashion, but
diametrically opposed in position. The smaller rotated on the
opposite side of the circle. Additionally, the moved vertically,
up and down, with the closest distance to the ground estimated at
500 feet. Finally, the larger object shot off and disappeared.
The smaller went in an easterly direction, fairly slowly, until it
disappeared beyond the tree line over East Bay. The observers
said that four occupants of a car took off toward the bay in an
effort to see where the "bow-tie" had gone. It was estimated that
between 30 to 40 people witnessed the sighting. If you are one of
the witnesses to this sighting, please call Joe Barron at 932-5394
so that the report can be enhanced. The four occupants who chased
the UFO are particularly requested to contact Joe. Of all the
witnesses who were there, it is hoped that pictures were taken.
If so, you are encouraged to contact Joe. This is only the second
daylight sighting that this MUFON investigator has reported in
this area. Therefore, the sighting is of particular significance.
All of the witnesses to this sighting are requested to attend the
Pensacola/Gulf Breeze MUFON meeting at 7 p.m. at the United Church
on 9th Avenue on October 14.
Following the interview, this investigator joined a group of
people conducting a UFO watch at the end of the Pensacola/Gulf
Breeze bridge. It was difficult to find a place to park. The
crowd was substantial. On the other side of the highway, a group
of MUFON investigators were assembled with their equipment, along
with Dr. Bruce Maccabee from Washington. When this reporter
approached the group, a small red light appeared in the direction
of Garcon Point. It was very bright, and made two appearances of
about 10 seconds before disappearing. The time was 8:40 p.m. so
the odds are that if you want to see a UFO, look into the sky more
often and go to the end of the bridge after 7 p.m. You may see
one.

UFO Passes In Front of Full Moon as
Forty People Watch
by
Ed Walters
The UFO "sky Watches" have continued nightly with many local
residents gathering at the foot of the Pensacola Bay Bridge. On
Sunday, September 22, 1991, forty people were shocked to see the
UFO appear near the full moon.
One man stated, "I saw a small white light appear to the left
of the moon. It grew in size and moved west toward the moon. As
it crossed the bottom edge of the moon, I could see the darkish
outline of structure above the white light which suddenly turned
brilliant red."
A woman stated, "I saw a perfect circle of red lights. In
the center of the lights was a glowing, boiling swirl of 'energy'.
When it crossed in front of the bottom part of the moon, I saw a
darker round shape above the red ring of lights."
Another stated, "At first I thought it must be a parachute
and a flare but as it passed the moon, I saw that the shape above
the red light was angular and then I knew it was no parachute. At
one point the red turned bright white before it suddenly
disappeared."
An air traffic controller was among the witnesses and said,
"I don't know what it was but I know it was not a conventional
airplane or helicopter and it certainly was not a flare. Flares
don't change color two or three times."
A doctor at the bridge with his family said, "It moved quite
a distance across the sky before it disappeared. We just don't
know what it was. It was a UFO, An Unidentified Flying Object."
A size triangularization, established with two other
sighting locations, located the object to be approximately 1.9
miles away from the witnesses at the Bay Bridge and also showed
that the object was over twenty feet in diameter.
The object traveled to the west-northwest, into the wind and
closer to the witnesses. MUFON investigators were present to
record the elevation and azimuth of this unknown object. At the
time of the sighting the surface wind was out of the north at one
mile per hour and the upper level winds were also out of the
north. There was no comment from the military.
