Rendlesham-Incident Forum

A couple of weeks ago the Forestry Commission had an "alternative" Rendlesham 30th anniversary event addressed by Brenda Butler, among others. See the video here and decide for yourself if it makes any sense:

Someone posted it on the Justice for the 81st Facebook page but it was immediately taken down.

BB mentions a ship HMS Norvik - there was no HMS Norvik or Narvik in commission in 1980. There was HMS Norfolk - a County Class guided missile destroyer, sold to Chile (and renamed 'PRAT'...!) circa 1982. A mate of mine served in the Norfolk - and in 1980 I believe she was in the Caribbean as the Windies guardship. The log will be available at the National Archive. Pretty sure a County Class destroyer would not be off Orfordness during the Christmas period because it was the custom for ships in home waters to return to their home port to spend Christmas alongside, e.g. the Fishery Protection Squadron and ships of STANAVFORLANT (Standing Naval Force Atlantic) were in harbour/home ports for Christmas leave. Ships of STANAVFORCHAN, mostly mine-hunters/sweepers, dispersed on 17th Dec. Some spent the period 19th to 31st at Ostend, before the force assembled on 12th Jan 81. The logs for the British element of STANAVFORCHAN will be at Kew. I have already checked the logs of the ships of the Fishery Protection Squadron and all were either in port or in refit or 'out of routine' with several hours 'notice for steam'.

STANAVFORLANT was the designated naval force on standby in case the Soviets invaded Poland and even they were in home ports, save the Canadian and US ships who remained at Portsmouth with the British ship HMS Juno (Leander class frigate F52). The German and Danish ships returned home.

if an area of sea was closed to shipping then it is very likely that a Notice to Mariners was issued. This would define the area and the duration of the closure. The Hydrogarpher's Office should be able to provide a copy. This would be particularly important for the Orfordness area due to the volume of commercial shipping approaching/leaving Harwich bound for Baltic / Scandinavian ports.

We went through this a couple of years ago on this Forum -- see the third posting from ST here:

HMS Norfolk was in dock in Portsmouth for maintenance at the time.

Poor Brenda has quite literally been away with the fairies in the wood for some years now.

If, in 1980, there had been Soviet incursions into our territorial waters or airspace they would have been met with an aggressive response. As for Yeti, greys, etc etc... well, no comment. Norfolk in AMP.. excellent. Saves me having to go down to Kew.

The leader of the craft called RAR showed Brenda how to spell it lmfao

If i saw a Predator id be run for my life. LOVE that film

It was painful but I went through the 55 minutes of video. I'm given the impression that she feels the USAF witnesses were not important. To me there would be no story without them. I guess if you say 'Norfolk' with a Norfolk accent, you would probably hear 'Norvik' or 'Narvik'. Bunch of pirate sounding farmers where I live.

My fear for the meetup, later this month, was whether she was going to show up, with her 'spiritualist' followers, and distract any media. Just make sure, for those who are going, to take plenty of video and photos, especially if you see the Predator. I'm sure Jesse Ventura would like to come over and exact sweet revenge with his Mini-gun.

No Predators at this time of year. They only come when its hot. On the hottest years. lol.

I aint got time to bleed

Jesse loves a conspirecy or 2. He would sort thoes Rendlesham Predators out.

Bunch of slack jaw faggots round here, this stuff will make you a god damm sexual Tyrannasourus ! lol lol lol

Rendle-shrooms?

God love Brendlesham ! now pass the napalm, and shrooms !!!!!
