Larry Warren was on duty when an army truck pulled up and he was ordered to get in the car with the other guards, none of them knowing what was going on or where they were going. 

They left through the East gate and entered a clearing near the nearby Rendlesham forest. There they met other small groups of soldiers. They went into the woods in groups. They soon came across a large white fog about two feet (0.6 m) from the ground and about 50 feet (15 m) in diameter. 

Suddenly they noticed a red light approaching silently from the far side of the field. It entered the fog, creating a blinding flash of light so bright that they had to close their eyes. When the soldiers looked again, the fog cleared and a large triangular ship with a white light on top took its place. 

As they watched, the object seemed to distort slightly. Larry and the other soldiers were ordered to surround the facility; Then they noticed that their shadows were cast on its surface, and that they were unusually large. 

Suddenly, a ray of light was emitted from the object, and within that light were three creatures that were described as small with huge heads and large dark eyes. They looked almost translucent. The senior officer approached the creatures and apparently established some sort of telepathic communication. 

The soldiers were then ordered to return to the clearing, as they were walking back, a triangular object smaller than the main ship appeared in the clearing not far from where their trucks were parked. 

One of the officers grabbed the item, which literally carried about ten meters away before he let go. One of the truck drivers reported that he saw one of the small creatures pass through his windshield, scared, he kicked his feet and broke the glass. Others reported seeing small probes that passed through the side of their vehicles only to appear from the other side. 

Later, all the people who were present in Rendlesham forest were questioned and sworn to secrecy. Apparently there were other incidents and landings at the same military base around the same time. Other sources, including then-base commander Charles I Holt, reported that some of the sites were emitting laser beams of light into bunkers for storing nuclear weapons. The purpose of this remains unknown.

Summary: Larry Warren was on guard duty when an army truck pulled up and he was ordered into the vehicle along with other guards, none of them knew what was happening or where they were going. They went out the east gate and entered a clearing at the nearby Rendlesham Forest. There they encountered other small groups of soldiers. They set off in groups into the woods. Soon they came upon a large white mist about two feet from the ground and about 50 ft in diameter. Suddenly they noticed a red light silently approaching from the far side of the field. This went into the mist creating a blinding flash of light that was so bright they had to shield their eyes. When the soldiers looked again the mist was gone, and it its place was a large triangular craft with a white light on top. As they stared the object seemed to slightly distort. Larry and the other soldiers were instructed to surround the object; they then noticed that their shadows were cast on its surface, and that these were unusually large. Suddenly a shaft of light came from the object, and inside this light were three beings, which were described as small with enormous heads and big dark eyes. They seemed almost semi-transparent in appearance. A senior officer approached the beings and there was apparently some telepathic communication. The soldiers were then ordered to go back to the clearing, as they walked back, a triangular object, smaller than the main craft appeared in the clearing close to where their trucks were parked. One of the officers grabbed the object, which literally carried him some ten metes before he let go. One of the truck drivers reported seeing one of the small beings passing through his windshield, terrified, he kicked out with his boots and smashed the glass. Others reported seeing small probes, which passed through the side of their vehicles, only to appear on the other side. Later on all the men who had been present at Rendlesham Forest were debriefed and sworn to secrecy. Apparently around the same time there were other incidents and landings at the same military base. Other sources including the then base Commander Charles I Halt, said that some of the objects beamed laser-thin rays of light into the nuclear weapons storage bunkers. The purpose for this remains unknown.
