 SEPTEMBER 1964 VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE
In mid-October 2025, former US Air Force nuclear missile guard Richard L. Barth approached me with an account of his Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon/Non-Human Intelligence (UAP/NHI) experience at California’s Vandenberg AFB in September 1964. Knowing that I would undoubtably ask for it, Barth at the same time provided his Department of Defense DD214 service record which confirmed that his assignment at the base began on July 1st of that year and that he had been a member of the 4392nd Combat Defense Squadron.
Barth’s Security Police unit was charged with protecting numerous missile launch facilities located outside of Vandenberg, including some devoted to testing the new Minuteman-1 ICBMs which were at that time being deployed at various US Air Force bases around the United States, replacing the aging Atlas and Titan missile systems.
As some readers will know, over the past five decades I have interviewed 169 US military veterans who were involved in nuclear weapons-related UFO incidents. Among those individuals, a handful—including Barth—described witnessing the presence of non-human entities during their own UAP encounter who temporarily incapacitated, overpowered, and abducted them.
In the linked article above, Barth describes being on guard duty, alone, one night in September 1964, when he was approached by a human-appearing entity wearing a military uniform who suddenly began telepathically communicating with him. Barth became frightened and attempted to draw his .38 caliber service revolver, at which point his right arm became paralyzed. Apparently rendered unconscious for a time, Barth next remembers being aboard an unknown craft—as it hovered directly above a nearby missile-launch facility at low altitude—kneeling in front of four other entities who appeared to be members of the species we now refer to as Grays.
Next, after again being unconscious for a while, Barth found himself back in his guard shack, lying on the floor with his head resting in the lap of the first, human-like being he encountered, who began telepathically explaining the reason for the NHIs’ visit to the missile site.
Barth recalls being told that the Visitors were attempting to learn how our ICBM systems functioned, so that they could be disabled en masse should a nuclear war ever erupt. He was further told that multiple groups of NHIs were working together to protect the Earth from the massive destruction that would result from such a conflict. The being emphasized that they would only directly intervene in human affairs if a catastrophe seemed imminent.
Finally, just as his alien encounter was ending, Barth said that he suddenly had an intense spiritual experience—apparently implanted in his mind by the human-appearing entity—during which he felt an overwhelming love for all living creatures.
