A former Marine has come forward with a remarkable account of encountering a suspected Sasquatch in a restricted military base. The compelling incident, revealed in a recent report to the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, occurred in the summer of 2005 in Quantico, Virginia, as witness Andrew Bird participated in "field training exercises" at a mock urban environment closed to the public. One evening, he and two other Marines were ordered to exit the location and travel through the woods to a pickup vehicle "approximately 500 to 700 meters away." While making the normally routine trek, Bird recalled, the trio stumbled upon something that still mystifies him to this day.
