Navada Dessert silver oval shaped U-F-O- sighting

I was a truck driver working for ((name deleted)) transportation. Frankly, I don't know what i really saw, except that it was unlike any aircraft I ever saw, and let me tell you I have seen my fair share of them. Please let me explain.

I am an army veteran with nine years and nine months of service. My job numerclature was (16-sierra-20) what that means is; I was in charge of a shoulder fired stinger missle anti aircraft team. I was littraly trained to identify hundreds of aircraft, both Nato and non Nato aircraft; within five to seven secounds, my gunner within ten secounds. To this day i'm still pretty good at it. I live next to the bigest army base in the United States so I still get plenty of practice.

The inccident happened as I was leaving Los Vagas on my way back to Texas. I was driving through the dessert heading East, off to my right front on my passenger side, I noticed a silver oval object very bright and relecting the sun. At first I thought it was a jet plain, but as it got closser it did not fit any profile I ever seen.

It actually seamed to me as if it was bird dogging me. It made several mennuvers up and down as it decreased and icreased in spead. If it was a human pilot in that aircraft I would think the goverment may have come up with some sort of new G-suit, becouse it would have definetly turned him or her into putty.

Anyway it really started to give me the willies so I got on my C-B Radio and tried to reach somebody, anybody, I just wanted to see if any one else was seeing what I was seeing. Well I never did get a responce back, the whole thing lasted for about 15-min. The dammed thing seamed to littraly just blink out of exitstance.

I never told any one about it, never really felt compailed to do so. But reacently I have thought about that day qwiet a bit. I even dreamed about it several times. it started to bug me more and more the more I think obout it the more it bugs me.

Well any way I really felt like I had tell somebody. I still havent told anyone I know I don't think I can; becouse receantly I started to get treatment for depression and I don't want any one to think i'm going nuts. So I decided to do some reasearch and cme accros this site.

I know I got to sound like some nut job but it really feels good to tell my story, just to get it off my chest. I don;t know maybe there is something to this U-F-O- stuff after all.
