A new discovery in my case files, this is perhaps of interest?
Col. Halt’s Seminar at St George’s Community College
August 1997
Richard Hall introduction:
Our next speaker is Charles Halt, Colonel, Air Force, retired. Today he is a property manager, condominium in northern Virginia. And I think you are going to find his talk to be quite fascinating. He was involved in one of the, personally involved in one of the, classic UFO sightings of modern time. Very complex situation, which he can describe to you.
(...)
"The best way I can describe the beam is a laser beam, because a light beam normally radiates out. This came down steady. And it was six to eight, or maybe nine inches in diameter and fell right at our feet.
Well, that really had us upset. Because we weren’t sure whether it was a warning, whether it was, you know, a, a shot at us, whether it was somebody trying to communicate, or what it was.
We had no idea, and we just stood there and looked, and nobody said anything. And all of a sudden, as fast as it came on, it just, clicked [snaps fingers], it was gone. And the object receded.
Now the object, when it receded, was back over Bentwaters Base, and we could see beams of light coming down there, near the weapons storage area. And we could hear the chatter on the radio. The people over there could actually see the beams of light too".
The obvious question being, at which point did this:
"HALT: 04:00 hours. One object still hovering over Woodbridge base..".
....become RAF Bentwaters?
I have wondered if it was conceivable, especially in relation to Halt's taped observation re the location of our star-like objects, when he said, "Woodbridge base", this was a 'generic' reference to the twin-base complex and not specifically RAF Woodbridge?
If perhaps possible, it would make a whole lot of sense re other issues.
However, here we have Halt using the phrase, 'Bentwaters base' and it does seem quite clear.
There is one other alternative, he simply made an error on tape... would that work, or definitely not?
