#Gene Norman was hunting with William Branham on Rattlesnake Mesa in early March of 1963.  Regarding their trip, he stated, “''I hunted, oh, probably about a half hour, and that blast went off.  It sounded like it was just right above my head. And, I looked up, and, I didn’t see nothing.  Ah, yeah, I did, I seen something, but I didn’t see the cloud in the form that it shows in the picture.  When I looked up I seen two long streaks like, ah, like a plane leaving a trail. Two streaks, with a great, miles one way and miles the other way. With a spot in between.  A big spot, a space in between it.''

#The March 1, 1963 edition of the Arizona Republic Newspaper includes an article called “Shaken Up By Sonic Booms”.  This article tells of multiple sonic booms over the town of Springerville, Arizona that were being caused by aircraft from Williams Air Force Base (about 150 miles southwest of Springerville).  Some of these booms were so loud they cracked windows in the town.  Rattlesnake Mesa is about 88 miles southeast of the Williams AFB which a plane flying faster than the speed of sound could reach in under 7 minutes.

=Reasonable conclusions which can be drawn from the facts=
#William Branham did not prophesy the appearance of the cloud.
#The cloud was so thin that it was only observable at sunset, when the sun illuminated the cloud as the sky was darkening.  This explains why it only appeared at sunset.  By the next day at sunset it would have dissipated.
#William Branham was in Tucson when the cloud appeared.  He never indicated that he saw the cloud from Tucson.
#William Branham nor his 2 companions saw the cloud while they were hunting at Rattlesnake Mesa
#It appears that they did hear something akin to a sonic boom while they were hunting.  Gene Norman's testimony appears to corroborate that what they heard was a sonic boom from a military aircraft.
#William Branham was completely unaware of the cloud until he was shown the picture in Life magazine.
#William Branham was lying when he stated he saw the cloud while he was hunting.
