Account

During a nighttime military training exercise at Fort Pickett, the witness on overwatch heard three rapid knocks followed seconds later by a loud branch or small tree breaking. Personnel in a nearby camp also heard the noise and searched the treeline with flashlights before the woods fell silent. The witness reported an uneasy feeling of being watched that night. No visual contact was reported by the witness during these sounds.
