Second witness reports possible activity while training at Fort Pickett

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.
Possible encounters by soldiers training at Fort Pickett
A military controller and about 20 soldiers conducting multi-day field training heard unexplained footsteps around their concealed position on several occasions and later heard several loud wood-on-wood knocks from a direction where no troops were located. The unit checked team positions verbally and visually and investigated but found no source. That evening they heard a radio report of a separate sighting elsewhere on the installation.
