Even the briefest survey of the fall of 1973 shows it to have been a time of unparalleled UFO activity. Thousands witnessed them landing. Hundreds sighted occupants riding in them. Or, were abducted for examination aboard spaceships. These were not the high flying discs of the early 50's, or the close approaching craft of the mid-60's. Instead, these vehicles touched down all across the United States and the Western Hemisphere. Prior to 1973 it had been only sporadic.
The first indications that October 1973 was going to be different from previous UFO flaps came during August when a man and his son were driving down a New Hampshire highway and saw a strange machine sitting in a nearby field with a tall humanoid standing beside it. Neither father or son, felt the urge to stop and examine the craft.
Near the middle of September, a Sydney, North Carolina family reported seeing a creature with red glowing eyes, long hair, pointed ears, and a hook nose on a gray face. The creature limped and was missing a hand, but could leap sixty feet at a time. Later examination of the field where the alien had been seen revealed no footprints or other physical evidence. A radio disc jockey and a group of friends saw the same creature and fired six shots at it.
It was also during September that several Savannah, Georgia teenagers reported seeing ten, black, hairy dogs exit a landed UFO and run through a cemetery.
All these scenarios were little more than a prelude to what was to come. It is unfortunate that at the time no one realized what was happening. We can only hope that next time we'll be ready.
This classic is an astonishing account of the many UFO encounters, recounting the major abductions during the October 1973. More particularly:
A seasoned field investigator for the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization, some of Randle's other books include UFO Crash at Roswell; A History of UFO Crashes; Case MJ-12 and The Faces of the Visitors.
