Due to the lack of evidence, validating abduction reports is challenging, resulting in abductees often not being taken seriously in the UFO community. While some abduction stories can be entertaining and well-crafted, most of them are fabricated. However, there is one incident that is particularly compelling.
Terry Lovelace, a retired assistant attorney general and attorney who served as a media and EMT in the United States Air Force from 1973 to 1979, claims that an alien spacecraft took him. Lovelace’s account is fascinating and one of the few plausible and credible abduction stories.
In 1973, Lovelace joined the United States Air Force immediately after graduating from high school. He received training as a medic/EMT and was stationed at Whiteman AFB in Missouri, which was formerly known as Sedalia AFB. The base served as a B-2 bomber base and missile base and was home to the 351st Strategic Missile Wing, with numerous ICBM silos with Minuteman II nuclear weapons scattered throughout the countryside.
Lovelace was assigned as the base medic and drove an ambulance on the night shift, from 11 p.m. to 8 a.m., along with his partner, whom he called “Toby.” One night in January 1975, during their regular shift, they were outside the ambulance stargazing when Toby, an amateur astronomer, pointed out the constellations and planets. Normally their shifts were uneventful, but that night turned out to be a momentous one that would change the course of their lives.
Lovelace (now 69) went camping with Toby at Devil’s Den State Park in northern Arkansas. As they chatted around a roaring campfire, they had trouble hearing each other over the loud chirping of crickets and tree frogs. Suddenly, an eerie silence enveloped them. “It sounds kind of cliché — straight out of a movie — but that’s exactly what happened to us,” he said.
As they gazed toward the horizon, three glowing UFOs emerged and moved toward them. As the lights drew closer, the two partners could see that they were emanating from a black triangular prism about two city blocks wide.

Lovelace noticed a blue laser beam moving rapidly above them, possibly scanning for their presence. Soon after it stopped, they lost consciousness. Upon awakening, he noticed Toby looking out of the tent and seeing a triangle-shaped object hovering over a group of approximately twelve children who were in a meadow below them. Lovelace questioned, “Why are these children here at this time of night?”
“They’re not children. Don’t you remember they caught us and hurt us?” Toby replied.
According to Lovelace, when Toby uttered these words he experienced a sudden memory of being inside a UFO. Years later he resorted to hypnosis to recover his lost memories. Through one of these sessions, Lovelace recalled an incident in which he was taken aboard a spacecraft and subjected to medical experiments by peculiar entities.
These entities were humanoid in form, but their features were distorted and almost non-human. They communicated telepathically and appeared to be performing a medical procedure on Lovelace. During his hypnosis sessions, Lovelace experienced flashes of memory where he was on an examination table and screaming, but no sound came out of his mouth. He could hear telepathic messages in his head, urging him to stop screaming because they meant him no harm and would take him back.
Lovelace said they had a horrific experience that left their skin red and sore like sunburn all over their bodies, even on the soles of their feet. They had to go to the hospital on base for two days because they were so dehydrated.
While there, they were questioned several times by men who claimed to be from the “Office of Special Investigations.” They searched his house and car for a camera that Lovelace said he didn’t have, but they didn’t believe him. They also told him not to see his partner Toby again, who was sent to another base. The whole experience gave Lovelace nightmares and affected him mentally for a long time.
Terry Lovelace was deeply disturbed by his encounter and left with numerous unanswered questions. He later wrote a book titled “ Incident at Devils Den: A True Story ,” with the intention of revealing the facts about alien abductions and inspiring others to share their experiences.
During a routine X-ray of her leg in 2012, Lovelace was found to have a piece of metal embedded in her leg the size of a fingernail with tiny wires coming out of it. This object resembled a computer chip with two small wires extending towards her head, although it was unclear how far they went.

Additionally several other implants of varying shapes were detected, but only six of the twenty-four images taken were provided to Lovelace with the remainder claimed to have been destroyed. Additionally a group of objects arranged in a floral pattern similar in size to Tic Tacs were found embedded in the calf muscle.
The most surprising aspect of this discovery was that there was no sign of incision or surgery on Lovelace’s leg, and the radiologist who detected the object stated that it was impossible to breach the integrity of the skin without leaving a scar. These implants had apparently been inserted into her body by unconventional means, and the radiologist referred to the situation as “disturbing,” noting that he had never encountered anything like it.

On her personal blog Lovelace writes: “In September 2017 I was a guest speaker at a UFO event in Houston. It was my first public appearance and opportunity to speak candidly on the subject of alien abduction. It was at this point that I decided to write a book. It is an important topic. We deserve to be informed, not misled.”
I fear that we have been desensitized to the UFO phenomenon by the media, especially the movie industry. Close Encounters of the Third Kind was released in November 1977. My experience occurred in June of that year. Now, YouTube provides a flood of valid information mixed with confabulation and deception. Get the truth. Aliens do exist, and some live and walk among us without us even giving them a second thought. There are probably many species from different worlds or different dimensions here on Earth today.
Some aliens may actually be our ‘benign space brothers’ , as some claim. Here to join hands and lead humanity into a new era of peace and higher consciousness. Maybe so, but not the ones we know. The beings we know were monsters. They kidnap people and subject them to terror and brutality in pursuit of their agenda. They are 100% purpose-driven and have no empathy for human or animal suffering. We are their lab rats. Once you are marked as their specimen, you are marked for life. Like a wild animal in the Serengeti Plan.”
Five years ago, Terry Lovelace published a book that caused significant problems, leading to a year-long harassment incident at his home outside Dallas. Lovelace reports that after the book was released, military aircraft, including two-seaters and four-seaters, as well as Airbus 350s with no registered “N” number, flew over his home. These olive-colored aircraft were seen making flyovers at least twice a week, often every day. Lovelace captured numerous photos of the incidents, including one that appears to show a UFO in the same frame as one of the intruding aircraft.

After publishing a book about her experience, Lovelace received a phone call from Tom DeLonge, founder of To The Stars Academy, along with General Neil
McCasland and Lue Elizondo, who were interested in X-rays of Lovelace’s leg, which had been injured during the encounter.
Bill Cox writes:
“I can attest to the fact that TTSA was interested in speaking with Terry about possible biological effects he may have suffered,” former AATIP manager Elizondo said in an email. “Biological effects (are) a potentially serious aspect of what we study at AATIP, and we now know that certain elements of the U.S. government are equally concerned as we are. If Terry is suffering any medical consequences as a result of an alleged encounter with a UAP while serving in the military, he deserves medical attention.”
“It is my experience that helicopters of unknown utility have been reported by certain individuals. It is not yet known whether this is some type of intentional harassment or simply a matter of being near a congested flight corridor. Obviously, flying a helicopter is expensive and logistically intensive if this is some type of campaign to intimidate individuals on a regular basis. We need to do additional research to better determine the nature of these incidents,” he added, “before making any type of proclamation.”
“Terry is a good person who is also trustworthy. I believe Terry and others are convinced that their experiences are legitimate.”
Pediatric surgeon and ufologist Roger Leir investigated alleged alien implants found in Terry Lovelace’s body. The implants were found to contain rare elements, some of which are found only in meteorites and do not occur naturally on Earth. This raises questions about how Terry ended up with alien implants in his body without surgical insertion and adds credibility to his compelling abduction story. Source
