Description

In mid-June 2006, near Baghdad's Camp Slayer, U.S. Army Sergeant First Class David Mark Koch, who was assigned to the Kansas Army National Guard's 137th Infantry Regiment, he and 25-soldier Kansas National Guard platoon witnessed a colossal triangle UFO while in iraq.

Traveling near Makasib village around 10:00 PM, an immense, silent, solid black triangular object appeared directly overhead. Estimated at over 1,000 feet tall and 1,200 feet per side – large enough to completely obscure the stars and cover the entire village – it featured distinct "milky" white-orange lights in a "V" shape along its leading edge.

Soldiers using PVS-7 night-vision goggles confirmed its seamless, solid structure and noted city lights reflecting off its smooth underside despite its near-perfect darkness. After observing the hovering object for 3-7 minutes, the patrol moved positions and found it gone upon looking back.

Fearing ridicule, career repercussions, and operational disruption in a hostile combat zone filled with IED threats, Koch advised the unit's inexperienced lieutenant against filing an official report. The soldiers privately discussed the event for years, often speculating it was secret US tech, though Koch believed it unexplained. Over 15 years later, Koch publicly disclosed the mass sighting to researcher Robert Salas.

This was maybe filmed at the Reykawvik Summit UFO conference at Liberty Hall, 644 Mass, on March 18-20 in 2011.

David Mark Koch sadly passed away in 2022 at age 55.


This seemed to be apart of "END UFO SECRECY" campaign that involved people like Bryce Zabel and Richard Dolan. If people want to know more (me as well) they might be a good contact to find more info about this. As far as i tried to look, the platoon hasn't gone public (yet).
