Never personally had the missing time experience but I've spoken to three separate people who all describe something almost identical - lights near Faslane, then just... nothing. They wake up confused, clothes sometimes slightly wrong, weird metallic taste. One guy I know swears he lost about 4 hours and had no explanation for how he ended up two miles from where he started.
The military base connection is something a lot of researchers overlook tbh. People always assume its just classified aircraft and that explains everything away but that doesnt account for the physical symptoms people report afterwards. The taste, the nosebleeds, the disorientation.
Would love to hear more accounts from people near active bases specifically. There's definitely a pattern here and I think theres more to it than swamp gas or whatever explanation gets wheeled out. If you've got a detailed account please share it, even the parts that seem embarrassing or hard to explain - those details are often the most important ones.
