Every soldier has a story. Some, they try to forget. Others, they can’t stop thinking about – stories that no one else would believe happened. Something that terrified them. Something they cannot explain.

Hosted by Marine Corp Reconnaissance veteran, Luke Lamana, this is Wartime Stories. A weekly podcast that is a mix of horror, mystery, and awe inspiring tales. Where the strange, dark & mysterious meets the battlefield and beyond. 

New episodes every Friday.

Wartime Stories

Camp Horno is a familiar training ground for many West Coast Marines — a place defined by steep terrain, coastal fog, and long nights in the field. But for some who’ve trained there, the experience left behind more than just physical exhaustion.

Across multiple accounts from different units and years, Marines have described encounters in the hills, fog, and barracks that defy easy explanation — moments that suggest something may be lingering just beyond the limits of what they can see.

Strange Things on Horno

Guam is often seen as a tropical paradise — a strategic stronghold in the Pacific with a long and violent history beneath its surface. But for those who have lived and served there, the island has a reputation for something harder to explain.

From military bases to abandoned bunkers and jungle-covered hills, servicemen and civilians alike have reported encounters that seem tied to the island’s past — moments that continue to raise questions long after they’ve ended.

Strange Things in Guam

In remote training areas, far from anything resembling civilization, service members occasionally report encounters they struggle to explain. Most can be written off — stress, exhaustion, or misidentified wildlife. But some accounts are harder to dismiss.

Across multiple locations and separate incidents, soldiers and Marines have described seeing the same pale, human-like figure moving just beyond the treeline — watching, tracking, and vanishing without a trace.

Rakes on Night Watch

Some stories aren’t told until years later — passed quietly between friends, or remembered only after something brings them back to the surface. Within the Wartime Stories team, a handful of these experiences have stayed with us, each one difficult to explain.

From abandoned buildings to historic battlefields and training grounds, these firsthand accounts reflect moments that didn’t make sense at the time — and still don’t now.

Wartime Team Stories

During a field exercise in the jungles of the Philippines, a unit of artillerymen responded to a nearby village reporting livestock thefts and the disappearance of a newborn child. What they encountered in the forest that evening would become one of the strangest stories ever shared between soldiers.

Drawing on accounts passed between servicemen and long-standing regional folklore, the incident raises unsettling questions about what may exist deep within some of the world’s most remote jungles.

Artillerymen and the Aswang

Across every branch of the military, crews depend on their machines for survival — aircraft, ships, and vehicles that become lifelines in combat. But sometimes, certain machines develop reputations that go far beyond normal mechanical trouble.

From a Marine Corps helicopter with a deadly past… to a British jump jet plagued by accidents… to a World War I submarine surrounded by tragedy and ghostly sightings, servicemen have long shared stories of war machines that seemed marked by something darker than bad luck.

Cursed War Machines

During combat deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, some soldiers reported encounters that didn’t fit any known threat, animal, or enemy tactic. Small humanoid figures seen at night. Unexplained movement around guard posts. Local interpreters refusing to enter certain villages without explanation.

Often dismissed as stress, exhaustion, or superstition, these accounts share striking similarities with regional folklore that long predates modern warfare. From remote outposts to abandoned settlements, servicemen describe experiences they still struggle to explain.

Far From Gnome

In the skies over wartime Europe and the Pacific, Allied pilots began encountering something they couldn’t identify — glowing objects that followed their aircraft, evaded radar, and vanished without explanation. Was it a Nazi weapon? Or something from another world? 
Recorded in combat reports and wartime newspapers, the Foo Fighter sightings would haunt aircrews long after the war ended, raising questions that were never fully answered.

The Foo Fighter Mystery

Before the Civil War, Champ Ferguson was a quiet mountain farmer, a loving husband and father living a simple life in the hills of Kentucky. But when the conflict came to his doorstep, something broke, unleashing a savage brutality that would make his name whispered in terror across the border states as one of the Confederacy's most infamous and bloodthirsty guerrilla fighters.

A Man Who Just Liked Killing...

On the island of Oahu, the US military stands as a symbol of modern power, a high-tech fortress in a tropical paradise. But when the sun sets over the volcanic peaks, an older power awakens, and today’s soldiers come face to face with the ghostly armies of Hawaii's ancient warrior kings.
