My parents were there that night on the opposite pier. Calvin even remembered the color of car seeing it across the river at the opposite pier that night. My dad worked offshore and the captain was late. My mom was waiting with him..they heard something jumps in the water and make a big splash. My mom saw something underneath the pier. It dove under the water. She said it had black slick skin. Like a scuba diving suit. But no one would have been in a scuba diving suit out there in the 1970s, cold mississippi muddy water hiding under a pier.
The news reporting on this story when in happened in 1973 was so authentic and captivating. Now 50 years later hearing the likes of Shelby Myers" report on this incident is the complete opposite. She just sounds like a generic obnoxious American with little interest into how amazing this story truly is.
Exactly! And that terrible way people attend at this """"""""""""""""""""""TALE commemoration"""""""""""""""""""""""" is just crazy and insulting. The witnesses with an S did saw exactly what they saw and lived through what they lived through.
Doubt it, but back in the 70s nuclear weapons used to be stored at the singing river island navel base less than a mile from where the abduction took place. Very few people know about this.
