Former Air Force Security Forces officer Jeremy McGowan recounts a strange assignment in the Jordanian Desert in 1995, where he and another officer were ordered to guard a massive, unmarked crate with no explanation of its contents or purpose. During a nighttime watch, McGowan witnessed an unidentified object hovering directly above the crate, performing extraordinary maneuvers that defied explanation. As today's UAP conversation continues to unfold, this remarkable account takes on new relevance. McGowan walks us through the events of that night, the aftermath, and his theories about what was inside the crate, where it came from, and why whatever was in the sky seemed so interested in it.
