The Pascagoula Alien Abduction – Smoking Gun Puncture Wounds Doc & Pictures

Hickson and 19-year-old Calvin Parker — co-workers at a shipyard — have been fishing off a pier on the west financial institution of the Pascagoula River in Mississippi. They heard a whirring/whizzing sound, noticed two flashing blue lights, and reported that an oval formed “craft”, some 8 toes throughout and eight or extra toes excessive, instantly appeared close to them. The ship appeared to levitate about 2 toes above the bottom. A door opened on the ship, they stated, and three creatures emerged and seized the boys, floating or levitating them into the craft. Each males reported being paralyzed and numb. Parker claimed that he had fainted as a result of fright. They described the creatures as being roughly humanoid in form and standing about 5 toes tall.

The creatures’ pores and skin was pale in color and wrinkled, they usually had no eyes that the boys might discern, and slits for mouths. Their heads additionally appeared linked on to their shoulders, with no discernible neck. There have been three “carrot-like” growths as a substitute – one the place the nostril can be on a human, the opposite two the place ears would usually be. The beings had lobster-like claws on the ends of their arms, they usually appeared to have just one leg (Hickson later described the creatures’ decrease our bodies trying as if their legs have been fused collectively) ending in elephant-like toes. Hickson additionally reported that the creatures moved in mechanical, robotic methods.

On the ship, Hickson claimed that he was in some way levitated or hovered just a few toes above the ground of the craft and was examined by what seemed like a big football-shaped mechanical eye, about 6 to eight inches in diameter, that appeared to scan his physique. Parker claimed that he couldn’t recall what had occurred to him contained in the craft, though later, throughout periods of hypnotic regression he supplied some hazy particulars. The lads have been launched after about 15-20 minutes and the creatures levitated them, with Hickson’s toes dragging alongside the bottom, again to their unique positions on the river financial institution. Each males stated they have been terrified by what had occurred. They claimed to have sat in a automotive for about 45 minutes, attempting to calm themselves. Hickson drank a small quantity of whiskey.

After some dialogue, they tried to report their story to officers at Keesler Air Power Base, however personnel informed them the USA Air Power had nothing to do with UFO reviews and advised the boys notify police. At about 10:30 p.m., Hickson and Parker arrived on the Jackson County, Mississippi Sheriff’s workplace. They introduced the catfish they’d caught whereas fishing; it was the one proof they needed to again up their story. Sheriff Fred Diamond thought the boys appeared honest and genuinely frightened and he thought Parker was particularly disturbed. Whereas writing his guide Calvin Parker knowledgeable me that whereas onboard the UFO and laid out on a see-through desk of some form, his pants, sneakers and socks have been eliminated. He doesn’t like speaking about this in any respect I would add. Calvin knowledgeable me that one thing was caught into his foot beneath and that it damage.

THE PUNCTURE WOUNDS DOCUMENT

After the guide was printed and have become a best-seller on Amazon.com I continued my seek for any formal documentation associated to the incident as any that had been within the possession of Calvin Parker had been washed away by hurricane Katrina. I contacted all the main UFO teams one in every of which included the J. Allen Hynek Heart for UFO Research within the USA. They have been very obliging and despatched me a PDF file of what that they had on the case. Most of what they despatched was newspaper cuttings however buried in the midst of this file was a really curious and doable ‘smoking gun’ type-written doc.

Though this doc, dated thirteenth of October 1973, simply two days after the alien encounter, is unsigned and it was written by Dr. James Tougher. We all know it was written by Dr. Tougher as he was the one particular person to look at the witnesses which has been confirmed by Calvin Parker. Dr. James Tougher’s tutorial credentials are as follows: BS (Caltech), MS, Ph.D., (U.C. Berkeley). He’s a Fellow, AAAS; Life Member, ASCE; and Founding Member, Society for Scientific Exploration. Professor Emeritus, U.C. Berkeley. He was additionally a director of the UFO analysis group APRO.

Dr. Tougher together with Dr J. Allen Hynek have been on website in Pascagoula inside 36 hours of the occasion occurring. They interviewed Calvin Parker and Charles Hickson and at a press convention confirmed that they believed what the witnesses have been saying.

This ‘smoking gun’ doc and photographs has by no means been seen in public earlier than and may solely add to the authenticity of Calvin Parker & Charles Hickson’s testimony. Charles Hickson died in 2011 however Calvin Parker has this to say about this doc:

“On the time of my abduction on October eleventh, 1973, when the alien reached out to take me on board the ship. From the primary time I noticed them it was the concern I felt that’s arduous to explain. I simply knew I’d not stay by way of this concern. Because the alien made contact to my left arm I heard a whisk of what I assumed was air then I bought turned actually relaxed then all of the concern was gone. Afterward, after being examined by Dr. James Tougher I heard him telling Dr Hynek that I had a puncture marks on my arm and later on the hospital I came upon that I used to be given not one shot however two pictures the second was whereas I used to be on board the craft. This doc merely confirms what I’ve at all times identified and that’s each Charlie and I got injections by these creatures and we had the puncture wounds to show it.”

THE PUNCTURE WOUNDS PHOTOS

I’ve been concerned in UFO analysis for many years and spent a substantial amount of time investigating UFO occasions first-hand. At no time have we ever come throughout any official documentation that confirms that ‘puncture wounds’ as described by the witnesses, have had their claims formally documented by knowledgeable in such a way. For us it is a world first. Charles Hickson’s encounter and his description of feeling a prick on his interior forearm when grabbed by the creatures now appears to have been confirmed as does Calvin Parker’s assertion that one thing was caught into the underside of his foot and that it damage him whereas on board the UFO. The doc in query mentions that photographs of those marks have been taken. No photographs have been situated within the file however that was not the tip of issues.

A lot of our colleagues concerned in UFO analysis know that I’m consistently looking out for any info associated to the Pascagoula case. Every so often I’ll politely pester them to see if something new has come to mild.

On July twenty second, 2021, an e mail arrived from out of the blue from the identical colleague who had initially despatched us the CUFOS file on Pascagoula. This was Mark Rodeghier of CUFOS. His e mail learn:

“Good day Philip, I used to be going by way of some containers of assorted supplies yesterday and ran throughout a folder with the connected photographs of Hickson and Parker taken on the time of the incident. Maybe you have already got good copies of those, however I assumed it was price sending scans, simply in case. And in anticipation of your query, there was nothing else within the folder besides these photographs. Greatest, Mark.”

A lot to our amazement, the 2 photographs that Mark connected might nicely be these talked about within the ‘puncture wounds’ doc, though we can’t in fact be 100% sure of this. We have been astounded and grateful in equal quantities and we thanked Mark profusely for sending them to us. It solely goes to show what constructive outcomes may be achieved when colleagues in UFO analysis work collectively and share info.

Mark bought again to us the very subsequent day and defined a bit of extra of how he got here throughout the photographs:

“Philip, I’m happy to listen to that these are one thing you didn’t have.”

“There are certainly handwritten notes on the again of every photograph that present the particular person’s identify and date (that’s all). The photographs have been in a CUFOS file, with solely the photographs, buried in a field of varied kinds of materials that I used to be looking by way of for one thing else. Though initially, I’m certain they got here to Hynek, who then positioned them in some unspecified time in the future within the common CUFOS archival supplies.”

One of many first individuals we confirmed the photographs to was in fact Calvin Parker. Shortly after he considered them, we spoke with him by way of Skype at his residence in Mississippi. Only for the file, Calvin has been affected by a life-threatening sickness all through 2021 and has had main surgical procedure and is on a number of remedy as nicely. I’ll not go into any additional particulars, however I’m certain you possibly can perceive. Calvin, as trustworthy as ever, couldn’t recollect having any photographs taken, however he does keep in mind that Dr. James Tougher gave him and Charles Hickson a bodily examination simply after the incident occurred in 1973. It could have been far simpler for Calvin to easily associate with the story and say he remembered having the photographs taken however he didn’t. It proves as soon as once more what an trustworthy man he’s.

The times after their alien encounter have been in fact chaotic and Calvin was struggling badly from the after-effects. It wouldn’t be lengthy earlier than he can be within the hospital with a breakdown and can be haunted by these occasions for the remainder of his life. Sadly, Charles Hickson just isn’t nonetheless round to ask him if he remembered these photographs being taken and Dr. Tougher can also be deceased. Now we have to say that it doesn’t matter what they’re intriguing and will nicely assist the data outlined within the puncture wounds doc.
