2. I vaguely knew the two men from Pascagoula who claimed abduction.

I lived in NO at the time but largely grew up in Pascagoula. My grandmother ran a cafe where the two of them hung out a bit. At the time there was a spate of sightings, both in the sky and under the water where the river meets the Gulf of Mexico.

There are many YouTubes about the incident. Do I believe it was real? Beats me. But did THEY believe it was real? It sure as hell looked like it. It messed with their heads something fierce, and frankly I don’t think they were the type to maintain a lifelong lie. Just shipyard workers, basic blue collar Southern men.
