T is for Trinity and Tic Tac

ANOTHER TIC TAC

-4 Petty Officer John Baughman, of the US Navy, has revealed that he saw a ‘Tic Tac’ object from the flight deck of the , a Nimitz-class supercarrier, off the coast of Haiti in January 2010. He described it as definitely a solid, white object, some 20ft (6m) long, that darted into the depths and appeared to collapse on itself and disappear. Baughman felt empowered to mention this after the recent interest in UAPs, although he admitted that what he saw could have been caused by a shark, whale or moving flotsam. The story does reinforce the idea, promoted by ufologist Gary Heseltine in (3 June 2021) that there are alien bases under the sea. In any case, it seems that Tic Tacs have replaced triangular ‘Dudley Dorito’ UFOs, and we are now in danger of snack attacks from both air and sea.
