Picture was taken about 12 hours past my initial post if you want to see what I’m talking about

First off, first time Reddit post. I’m 31 years old and I have encountered aliens a couple times in my life. At first when I noticed them when I was younger I had thought how cool I have this perfect triangle on my arm. No sense or recolition of where they came from. As I got older I started to remember more. Mostly pieced together by dreams. Now I won’t get into too much further detail on that right now. I have known about the term scoop marks since about 2016 ish and about every 6 months I’ll check Reddit to see if anyone else has these markings on them. At the time Google images was another good source to find similar marking close to what I have. I’ve never once posted online these scoop marks in the fear of being labeled as I pursued firefighting as a career since the age of 18. I’m in Northern California specifically for reference. This brings me to my next story when I was the Mendocino complex fire in 2018 or 2019 which consisted of 2 different fires the river and the ranch fire, combined into one fire called the Mendocino complex. I worked for Calfire at the time and after getting demobbed (let go from the river fire to go assist in the ranch fire which was in all federal land. Meaning we as firefighters couldn’t use water to put out the fire. We just had to watch and try and control the burn the best we could with tools. Keep in mind this fire burned 2 million acres most in California history at the time.

This was the first time I made physical eye contact with a grey ET. This fire was huge and was an hour long drive up a dirt road in the mountains. I can pinpoint it on a map. This area is famous for illegal Marijuana farmers that patrol the area armed, so naturally we were all a little tense. Our job was to patrol the fire line and make sure nothing burned on cold side of the fire. To paint the picture better we got there at dusk about 8pm and got our assignment and were told to start patrolling and we went off in groups of 2 in both directions to get to our lookouts if you will. It was a warm night with smoke ash so thick you couldn’t see your hand in front of you with your head lamp on. With it off you could see about 7-10 feet. It was a normal night (as far as fighting wildfire goes) the only thing that was different was there where a lot of burned trees that where falling off/over in the distance “widow makers is what we called them”. My partner and I had to seperate for a little while, while we worked on two different hot spots on the boarder with our tools. And this is when my life changed forever.

I heard a loud bang and my radio started to make all sorts of weird sounds, “ I just got goosebumps and shivers down my body thinking about the sound it made” as I was messing with the radio trying to figure out what was happening,i wrote off the loud bang I heard as a tree must of fallen, as they were falling about every 1-3 minutes. As I was taking out my radio from my pack I saw something move out of the corner of my eye through the dense smoke. Keep in mind the only light we had was the dole dim of the interior fire about 200 yards away from the fire break and our head lamps but that made it worse. I turned on my head lamps to see what it was assuming it was another firefighter, I approached where I saw the movement in the darkness and as I got closer I froze not in fear but almost as in hypnosis. At this moment I knew something felt off and that’s when the gray came around the right side of the tree. I couldn’t move, as I was terrified as one of my favorite movies growing up was Signs. The gray didn’t make a sound, and stood there looking at me. I finally was able to move after about 30 seconds and I ran the other direction as fast I could.

I was so terrified and had a pounding headache which could have been from the smoke inhalation or from the gray using telepathy I’m not sure. When I finally found my way back to the engine they had said I had been gone for hours and they were trying to radio me but my radio was dead I assumed from what I had just encountered. The guys said I looked like I had just seen a ghost and I replied I wish. I didn’t tell anyone about that encounter until now hopefully with people that won’t label me crazy. Now with aliens being more talked about lately I just thought it was finally time to share my story. I had my phone on me but it was buried deep in a pocket underneath my yellow’s (Fire pants) honestly that was the last thing on my mind in the moment. I can’t really describe what I felt other than just fear, as aliens specifically grays are the thing I’m most terrified of.

Ever since then I have been able to lucid dream where I am in a state of full consciousness but actively sleeping. I have a couple other encounters none of which were this vivid for some reason as most were while I was sleeping. But I came here to see if anyone else has similar marks in their body and maybe with a similar story to mine. Thanks for your time

Second time posting this as I think the first one wasn’t approved or something, different image of my wrist.
