Disturbing images of Dulce ‘UFO base’ where conspiracy theorists claim 60 US troops were killed by aliens i…

CONSPIRACY theorists have asserted that at least 60 US troops were killed in a so-called alien battle at the site of the Dulce UFO.

In the Archuleta Mesa in Dulce, New Mexico, an underground base was discussed in claims from several UFO enthusiasts over the years.

Some ufologists even accused the alleged base of having aliens experiment on humans with the help of government officials, per All That’s Interesting.

Dulce is a small community of nearly 3,000 residents, mostly of Native American descent, and serves as the headquarters of the Jicarilla Apache Reservation.

It has very few buildings and attractions for outsiders.

Although some of its residents and ufologists claim they’re certain a seven-story underground military facility known as Dulce Base rests below the quaint town.

Rumors of the base and alien involvement started in the ’70s after New Mexico State Trooper Gabriel Valdez said he saw a strange aircraft in the sky and found several mutilated cattle.

Valdez claimed there were also gas masks near his location at the time, which he believed indicated the involvement of US government officials.

Although his detailed descriptions are noted in Michael Barkun’s A Culture of Conspiracy, providing an even stranger image.

The state trooper specifically noted the UFO as a sophisticated spacecraft hovering above where Dulce Base is believed to be.

The cattle mutilation, however, which involved a pregnant cow, didn’t have a calf baby, according to Valdez.

The cop described the infant as what “looked like a human, a monkey, and a frog.”

Other marks and debris surrounding the animal also allegedly indicated government involvement to Valdez aside from just gas masks.

“The evidence that was left there — you know, predators don’t leave gas masks, glow sticks, radar chaff,” Valdez was quoted in the book.

“They don’t leave that stuff.”

Although the claims appeared to run deeper as more people came forward regarding Dulce, arguably none were more important than Phil Schneider, who allegedly helped build the supposed seven-story military base when he worked as an engineer for the government.

Schneider said that military members encountered alien beings during the construction of the base and even engaged in a gunfight with them before negotiating a peace agreement.

Tourism focused on the alleged presence of government and alien operations still draws in thousands to Dulce, and there’s even a Dulce Base UFO Conference held annually.

Schneider famously described the alleged alien encounter in a 1995 conference, where he claimed around 60 United States military service members were killed in a battle with alien beings.

The supposed engineer also claimed he lost several fingers in the alien attack and that the government was using Dulce Base initially as an effort to stimulate subterranean gas reservoirs.

He also argued that materials used in modern government aircraft came from alien technology collected over the years.

Schneider died in 1996, and his death was determined a suicide.

Even with the stories from Schneider and the state trooper, no hard evidence has emerged from the area to confirm the presence of the Dulce Base or any alien encounters.

So-called Dulce Base experts still maintain its presence and have even mapped out the alleged 2-mile-long underground structure that supposedly features a shuttle to Los Alamos.

The floors are seemingly designated for research, with some for mind-control experiments, others for creating alien-human hybrids, and some claim there’s even housing for gray and reptilian aliens.

Although it’s the alleged floor number six that sends chills down ufologists’ spines.

The supposed experts claimed screams of other humans could be heard echoing down the passageways, dubbed the Nightmare Hall.

Schneider also argued that Dulce Base is one of at least 129 secret bases across the US.

They’re allegedly funded through a so-called black budget of around $50billion to $80billion per year, according to Schneider.

Whether Dulce Base truly exists or not, UFO speculation and consideration have been heightened since the Pentagon released de-classified footage.

Residents of Dulce also remain confident of what they’ve seen.

“The whole town of Dulce, whoever you want to talk to, they’ll tell you what they’ve seen,” resident Geraldine Julian told the Santa Fe New Mexican.

“It’s not just a fairy tale. All the things are true, and I believe every last one of them, too, because I’ve seen it myself.”
