“Open Minds UFO Radio: Kevin Day is a retired U.S.
Navy Chief Petty Officer who specialized in radar systems. He is a TOPGUN air
intercept controller with more than 20 years experience in strike group air
defense including war-time operations. In November of 2004, off the coast of San Diego, Kevin was a
radar operator on the USS Princeton, part of the USS Nimitz Carrier Strike
Group. Over several days unknown objects were observed on radar. On several
occasions, aircraft were directed to find the objects. The pilots reported
seeing 40 foot-long Tic Tac shaped objects that performed remarkable maneuvers
beyond the capability of our aircraft. This incident was made famous in a New
York Times article in December 2017
in which it was also revealed the Pentagon had a secretive
UFO investigation program. In this episode, we talk to Kevin about what he
experienced in 2004.”
The November 2004 USS
Nimitz Carrier Strike Group 11 UFO incidents occurred about a hundred miles
south west of San Diego,
California. The main UFO incident
occurred on 14 November 2004 (Fravor and Slaight).
To my knowledge, seven
U.S. Navy personnel, Kevin M. Day, David Fravor, P. J. Hughes, Omar Lara, Jim
Slaight, Jason Turner and Gary Voorhis, have talked about the UFO incidents on
the Internet.
Kevin M. Day was a radar
operator aboard the USS Princeton.
David Fravor, who chased
the UFO (resembled a white Tic Tac), was flying his F/A-18F Super Hornet
jet fighter.
At the time of the UFO
incident, Fravor was the commanding officer of the VFA-41 Black Aces, a U.S.
Navy strike fighter squadron.
P. J. Hughes was an
aviation technician aboard the USS Nimitz.
Omar Lara was a Flight
Decker in Air Ops aboard the USS Nimitz.
Lieutenant Commander (later Commander) Jim Slaight was
the pilot of the second F/A-18F
Super Hornet jet fighter.
Jason Turner was a Petty
Officer Third Class (in Supply) aboard the USS Princeton.
Gary Voorhis was a Fire
Controlman Petty Officer Third Class aboard the USS Princeton.
A large number of UFOs
were recorded on radar on and off for several days during the November 2004
U.S. Navy exercise, according to USS Princeton radar operator Kevin M. Day.
Gary Voorhis experienced
that the unknown objects “zoomed around at ridiculous speeds and angles and
trajectories,” and that “it (the UFOs) was moving faster than our radar could
register.”
