The Incident at Exeter, The Interrupted Journey ...

MJF Books, 1997.

More reviews. This double edition provides two of the most powerful and influential UFO cases in modern history - the incident at Exeter, and the Barney and Betty Hill UFO abduction. At Exeter in September 1965, at the lonely hour of 2am, young Navy recruit Norman Muscarello is walking down a quiet country highway when suddenly a huge object looms above him. He throws himself to the ground to avoid being hit, then huddles himself, pale and terrified, against a cold stone wall. Officers Eugene Bertrand, David Hunt, and superviser Reginald Toland are on duty when the teenager comes to the police station. Earlier in the night, Bertrand and Toland had already heard from a woman found parked outside Exeter who related that a huge flying object had chased her, but things were now escalating. Read as the shaken Navy recruit leads Bertrand back to the site and both watch as a huge luminous object rises from behind the evergreens, the craft coming so close to Bertrand that he drops to the ground and draws his service weapon, but it doesn't fire. Hunt arrives shortly after to watch the strange craft do things that no plane can do. So begin UFO events for the local police at Exeter - the now famous "Incident at Exeter". Learn about the farmer who was instructed to plow under landing marks in his field, and how the hens in the neighbourhood stopped laying eggs. Discover how the air force buys up all the newspapers with the story. Yet because of the viability of the testimony, the US Air Force admitted that the Incident at Exeter involved a UFO, and despite persitant Pentagon denials, the incident was read into the congressional record, the very first open congressional hearing on UFOs. A powerful investigation into an incredible UFO event in history. Barney and Betty Hill were returning home on a return trip from holidays in Canada when a disturbing encounter took place with occupants from a strange flying craft. At first unsure of what had happened, on arriving home the Hills realised that considerable time could not be accounted for. So marks the begining of one of the most influential UFO cases in modern history - the first mass-publicised and investigated alien abduction account. Read more reviews on this book.
