Near the German border, near the albert canal, a mushroom plantation owner was visiting caves where he grew mushrooms when he noticed a metal round object about 5.20 meters in diameter hovering about 50 cm from the ground nearby. 

An "escalator" descended from the dome at the top of the object to the ground, then a human figure came out, descended to the ground and stood next to the object. Two more similar figures came out and walked towards the witness. 

He described them as completely human in appearance, very pale, with eyes slightly larger than normal and about 1.60 meters tall. They were dressed in light-colored combo outfits. The creatures started talking to each other, saying, " What are we doing here?» the witness overheard them (apparently the creatures were speaking French) and started explaining that he was growing mushrooms, asking them if they wanted them. They said, " Yes." 

The witness then took them to the caves, took a wooden tray with some mushrooms, and offered them. But the leader said he only needed one. As soon as that single mushroom was in his hand, they all turned away and reloaded their car, which took off and disappeared in the direction of Holland. 

The local gendarmerie was alerted and the witness was questioned. On the same afternoon, the witness received two visitors in blue military uniforms (Belgian air force?) who spoke French with a Liege accent. After listening to his story, they warned him that "it would be better for him if he didn't see anything."

Time: 1000A
In the area near the German border close to the Albert Canal the owner of a mushroom plantation was inspecting the caves where he grew the mushrooms when he spotted nearby a metallic circular object about 5.20 meters in diameter hovering about 50 cm from the ground. From a dome on top of the object an “escalator” descended to the ground then a human like figure came out and descended to the ground and stood next to the object. Two more similar figures came out and walked towards the witness. He described them as totally human in appearance, very pale, eyes slightly larger than normal and about 1.60 meters in height. They wore light colored combination outfits. The beings began speaking among themselves, saying: “What are we doing here?” the witness overheard them, (apparently the beings spoke in French) and started to explain that he was cultivating mushrooms, asking them if they wanted some. They replied, “Yes.” Then the witness led them into the caves, and took a wooden tray containing several mushrooms, which he offered them. But the leader said he only wanted one piece. As soon as that single mushroom was placed in his hand, they all turned away and reboarded their machine, which took off and disappeared in the direction of Holland. The local gendarmerie was alerted, and interrogated the witness. The same day, in the afternoon, the witness received 2 visitors in blue military uniform (Belgian Air Force?) who were speaking French with a Liege accent. After listening to his story, they then warned him “that he would be better off if he not seen anything.”
