Milabs, Alternate Realities and Light Absorbing Orbs – John Franklin Interview with James Bartley

from The Cosmic Switchboard

John Franklin, a Croat American, returns to The Cosmic Switchboard Show to talk about Military Abductions (Milabs. This is a serious discussion about the subject. John talks about &#8220;snapping back&#8221; when he is returned from experiences.  John talks about the state of Milab Research today and how it has been overtaken by the &#8220;Super Soldier&#8221; narrative much to the detriment of serious research on the Milab Subject. John describes working for the Navy in communications during the early nineties while undergoing nighttime abductions involving naval personnel, creating what James Bartley calls parallel camouflage. John recounts conference room scenarios where officers spoke to an alter while his conscious mind was shunted into the backseat, unable to hear the dialogue, and explains why he rejects the super soldier label, comparing his treatment to being press ganged or Shanghaied into service. He also describes being beamed with energy that targeted his frontal lobe in an effort to chip away at his impulse control, and he and James discuss why they are skeptical of people claiming assignments in named secret space programs and how false data points spread through the milab community. In Part 2 John Franklin does a deep dive on the subject of Milabs and shares a series of photos of Orbs who seem to have a connection with his Milab and Alternate Reality Experiences. John describes the human looking beings he encounters, ordinary Caucasians in their twenties and thirties who display no emotion, and discusses the possibility that deep black elements of the Navy have established installations and a presence in alternate realities and dimensions. James shares his own experiences of being left drugged on the floor while Navy officers held conferences a few feet away. John then presents and analyzes several of his photographs, including an orb with a repeating fractal pattern that absorbed the light from his camera flash, and a jet black object darker than the night that sprang off his deck and shot past him like a fighter jet, leaving behind an image in which the luminous object appears to be eating the light itself. &nbsp; Part 1 Video: [This post contains video, click to play] Part 2 Video: [This post contains video, click to play] Part 1: https://www.thecosmicswitchboard.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/John-Franklin-Interview-with-James-Bartley-on-thecosmicswitchboard.com-Part-1.mp3&Download: <a href="https://www.thecosmicswitchboard.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/John-Franklin-Interview-with-James-Bartley-on-thecosmicswitchboard.com-Part-1.mp3" target="_blank" rel="noopener">mp3 Audio Part 2 &#8211; Members Only: https://www.thecosmicswitchboard.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/John-Franklin-Interview-with-James-Bartley-on-thecosmicswitchboard.com-Part-2.mp3To Play or Download: Login or <a href="https://www.cascadeprocessing.com/secure/signup/thecosmicswitchboard">Join &nbsp; To Download Use the link under the player for the part you want to download. &nbsp; The post Milabs, Alternate Realities and Light Absorbing Orbs &#8211; John Franklin Interview with James Bartley appeared first on The Cosmic Switchboard.
