YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn this episode of "Reality Check," Ross Coulthart sits down with former U.S. Marine Sgt. Roderick Castle and a researcher who goes by the name "UAP Gerb." Together, they pick apart Castle's UAP experience on U.S. Marine base 29 Palms in 1997. What does this aircraft have in common with other first-hand accounts? And why does this story seem to be directly related to former U.S. Marines Michael Herrera and Jonathan Wagant? Castle also speaks about the PTSD he endured from this incident, why U.S. Marines forced him into silence and how he is trying to break the UAP stigma.
