Astounding new Marine Lightwheel Sighting by US Navy Ship in the Arabian Gulf
By Kris SherwoodDocumented with eyewitness reports of April 11, 2009, by the Ship’s Commander and Officers of the USS Milius
On the morning of April 12, 2009 I received the following email from the Commander of a US Warship currently on deployment in the Arabian Gulf (also known as the Persian Gulf).
“Hello,
I am the Commanding Officer of a US Navy Ship currently deployed in the Arabian Gulf. On the 11th of April, 2009, we witnessed the Lightwheel phenomena. It was incredible!! In our efforts to figure out what we witnessed, one of our sailors located your report on the internet. Thanks!”

The Commander went on to say that 50 of his crew had been astounded to have witnessed an “Incredible!”, enormous and lengthy occurrence of the ‘Marine Lightwheel’ phenomenon (Ref. 1, 2, 3 & 4), though they didn’t realize what it was they were witnessing at the time, and had all been utterly stunned and incredulous at what they had seen.
On the morning of April 12, 2009, as had been the case in May 2007, one of the Milius’ crew had searched the internet, found my published writings on the Marine Lightwheel phenomenon and, since my previous articles are among the first links to come up in a quick web search of the subject, they contacted me. They said my articles described exactly what they had seen and they had then understood that an incredible Marine Lightwheel event was what they had witnessed. The ship’s Commander sent the first inquiring email, which I immediately replied to, and that was followed shortly with his, and other witnesses’ accounts, including a full report of the event by the ship’s Navigator.
The first article I wrote on this rare and nearly ‘mythic’ phenomenon was published in 1997, and since then I’ve received a handful of additional, and subsequent sightings that were not in the records when I first researched and wrote about the subject. Some reports were actually brought to my attention as a result of its publication, and followed my discussing the subject on widely broadcast radio programs that my husband and research partner, Ed Sherwood, have guested on. Documentation of some of these sightings are included in my previous articles (See Refs), and were mainly by single or double witnesses. None of those few had occurred more recently than 1997. Never before have so many credible and recent witnesses, such as an extraordinary 50 members of the US Navy, reported encountering this phenomenon so spectacularly, and under such compelling circumstances.
This extraordinary new sighting by an unprecedented number of highly credible witnesses, including the Commander of the USS Milius, CDR Kendall Gennick, his Executive Officer, and Navigator, along with several dozen of his crew, is riveting eyewitness documentation, and impressively solid evidence of a phenomenon that still is largely unexplained and left generally unrecognized by the scientific community. I hope this new evidence speaks for itself to further document the mysterious reality of this long told of wonder that has remained unrecognized, and largely dismissed as merely a ‘’wild sailor’s tale’.
