15 July 1978 Ft Belvoir, Fairfax County, Virginia Class B #33887

Retired Military Policeman remembers strange incidents while on guard duty at Fort Belvoir

The witness was an MP stationed at Davison Army Airfield from late 1977 to late 1979. While alone on night gate duty he noticed a deer acting alarmed, heard a noise in the dark woods beyond the street light, and saw two red eyes reflecting back at a height well above deer level. He connects the incident to repeated nighttime knocks, loud wood breaks and unfamiliar animal sounds heard around the airfield swamp and south perimeter woods.
