Multiple reports describe claims by a former US Army sergeant who says he was involved with UFO-related experiences. According to the cited coverage, the sergeant alleges that he spent much of his life in what he describes as telepathic contact with an alien companion, whom he characterizes as a “mantis alien.” The reports state that these claims are presented in connection with his later death. The articles do not provide independently verified evidence supporting the telepathic-contact assertions, and they focus on recounting what the former serviceman said rather than confirming the existence of the alleged entity or any technological explanation. The accounts therefore center on the whistleblower’s personal testimony and alleged experiences, with no additional sourcing or corroboration from other parties included in the provided material. As presented in these reports, the story involves UFO-related allegations, a specific description of the alleged “mantis” companion, and the claim that telepathic communication persisted for much of the sergeant’s life until his death.
