If you've got a story to share, don't hesitate to give

I'm from Louisiana and I have seen your post on Facebook and I just one of you asking about the folks who had encounters with big Foot and creatures such as and I just wanted to share my story with you. I finally came out with it. This has happened back in nineteen seventy five when I was in the military stationed at Fort Polkozi, and I had a girlfriend that lived on a farm outside of Camden, Arkansas. It's about a four and a half hour drive from the post to her farm, and so I go out there. I
was nineteen year old. I was a nineteen year old soldier back then. Now I'm sixty seven. But anyway, we spent I was there for the weekends. I go up there on weekends help her dad go ahead and work on built dance and tend to the cattle, and so I just I love that kind of thing. Their farm was secluded way out there, about ten maybe fifteen miles outside of Camden, going towards the Fouc area. It's kind of maybe about thirty five miles from South Arkansas. And anyway,
this one particular Friday night was there. We just finished upon her grain cook. She was an amazing cook, and we sat down and then and we just sat there humping down watching TV about nine thirty that night, and all of a sudden her raining screened. We jumped up, ran down the hallway and it was an old wooden, old farmhouse, probably about one hundred years old or better. And when you walked here to quit and creaked and everything else, you know my old wooden farm houses are.
And I was the first worn down the hallway to the kitchen and where her raining was, and I almost kind of flip over her. She was sitting on her hind then on the floor in the kitchen, point at the kitchen window over the saint and screaming. I seen him again. I seen him again, And I had no clue what she was talking about. I assumed he was some kind of intruder trying to break in. So her family evidently knew what it was because they'd been around there a few times before. Of course, no one let
me you know it. Her dad just said, ar'm up. We did. We got weapons off the racks in the hallway and we ran out the back door and get out there for the pasture. And it's a couple of miles from the next house, I mean, the next bottom over, so it's way out in the middle of nowhere. My girlfriend and her mama stayed inside tend to granny because she was pretty shook up, and we went out back. Her brothers went to the right and me and her daddy went to the left, And it was a very bright,
bright moon that night. I remember it like it was yesterday, and you had a traumatic experience. You remember these kind of things and just embedded in your mind fifty years later. And I'm retired from law enforcement, so I know how that works when we questioned people about things from the past. But in any case, as we were coming off the porch where her brothers put to the right and we went to the left, I noticed the cattle. I can
see him across the pasture. Like I said, very bright bright moon, so like almost like daylight outside, and they were all honking up across the pasture. They were cutting up, which was a pretty much big sign that there was some kind of a predator out there. Could have been a coyote, could have been a bobcat, didn't know. Uh. What caught my attention though, pretty much was he had
three trained Blue Jicks hunting dogs, foll grown. They were under the porch whiny, and that caught my attention because if they had been an intruder. They'd been out there cutting up to the woods, chasing him down there under the porch winy that you don't see that with blue chicks, and so I was. That really got me thinking, what will we after here? Because it's a whole lot dinner and that than some intruders. So if I asked our daddy, I said, hey, look, I said, we're about the dogs.
He said, don't worry about dogs. To spollow me and still close behind. So I'm thinking, what in the world we know we're going after? We caught a stanch, it was pretty strong, some kind of something dead, and then we got to clip out fire foot from the corner post. We had just built this thing that's a couple of months earlier, and it was a dividing fence. We divided the pasture from fifty acre swamp because of their farm was about two hundred and fifty acre and the swamp
was pretty boggy. He didn't want his cattle getting into it. So we built that fence at a four foot cattle panel out a stretch of bob wire over about five foot high, and we approached that corner post right there and all of a sudden, we jumped something. I mean in a thicket right there, and that's in that swamp side of the fence. We jumped something. It was pressing and turning and burning inside. There were just busting limbs and everything. It's not like a two thousand pounds rhino,
best way I can describe it. And then all of a sudden, at this point right here's where my whole world changed. And even here at sixty seven years old, now only forty eight years later, he gives me chills. He's been talking about this. This thing jumped over the fence or left it. And it wasn't twenty foot twenty twenty five foot I think we carried. We counted the next morning the twenty five foot from us, right there in that pasture. It squatted down. When it stood up,
it was flank of us. When I say flank, we weren't looking at it. It was facing to the right of us. So we saw its profile. It stood up about eight foot at least eight foot tall, covered hair, very massive, very very strong, powerful built. The first thing I noticed was I can see its profile in the moonlight. It was a man's profile. It was not a bear, because the bear has a snout. This had no snout. It had a man's profile and long arms. Its hands
came almost down to its knees. Big massive arms, big hands, long fingers. I mean, just it was no bear, because bears don't have fingers. But its shoulders were very broad. That's another different depicttion of a bear. Because the bear had slow fielders. This thing had broad shoulders, broad mastered fielders. And then, of course this all happened in a matter of about twenty seconds. So I'm slowing it down to give you the basic detail so you can understand what
we were looking at. Yet then it ran from us, didn't try to attack us, didn't try to aggress us. It ran from us. And I was on with the twelve gades and the daddy had four or ten. He was scared than I was, and it ran away from us. Now, if it came towards us, i'd unloaded that twelve gage. We loaded unloaded again being a soldier. But it ran from us, so opposed no threat. Evidently it was scared of us as we were scared of it. And when it ran across that pastor, it's about one hundred yard pastor,
it ran like a crack star. And when I say that, I mean it ran like a man, not like a bear. Bear can't run on two legs, has to follow it all four. It can walk on or two legs of a man, but it can't run. The structure won't allow it to haskall all four. Because I've seen many bears and this thing it ran like a track star across that pasture one hundred yards crash to the cattle gate. And we had built that cattle gate had them two by six oak. If you're learning about oak, oak is
very powerful, very strong. But it shattered those eight two by six oak boards shattered him. So that pretty much cleared of the fact of being a man in a suit. There's no man that's going to run through two by six oak boards new and go ahead and shatter him like that. I mean, you'd have to have a D nine doz or do something like that. And then any case, So it's a crash to that cattlegy. It's hard. It roared, and it was a roar I never heard before in
my life. Jamie Kills by the time, here come her brothers around to the side, and they said, y'all hear that. I said, here we just see it. They said, you've seen it? What you see? I said, I don't know. I don't know what to call it. I ain't believe in bigfoot. Back man. This is back in seventy five, so it wasn't talked about a whole lot back then. A few people had seen him. But I said, I don't know what I just seen. I just know it
was not a bear, it wasn't a man. It was it was something that I didn't I couldn't relate to. My mind was burning. Anyway, Her daddy was very shook up. He was almost crying, and he said, I don't know what you do. He comes around here every once in a while. He says, I don't know how to protect my family, what to do. And so anyway, he sat there. Rennan was running. We heard to racing. We calmed down, calmed down, and finally I went hit and got her
college brother. He was six foot four. I said, look for you know this kind of size comparison and kind of go ahead and get us a relatively what this say he is and how tall it was? I said, need you to stand therender the kitchen winning now and the house is on pilots because it was thought far from the river, so evidently had flood out every once in a while. So the house was jacked up on pilots.
So he was six foot four, raised his hand up as high as he could finger tips, probably hitting about seven foot maybe seven foot three inches, something like that, and he can barely touch the bottom rim of that kitchen winter, which put in perspective that hadn't been at least eight foot taller tower to look in at, granting him that winter. So at that point in time, we went ahead and then we went in the house. Granny was calmed down by the end we got inside there
and we were still shook up, but tolmed down. And I asked Granny. I said, look, man, I said, we had. We did not see its space, we saw its profile. It was blank of us. But you've seen his face looking in the windows. He says, yes, I have a few different times. And this is a seventy year old woman, and I mean strong Pentecostal now, I mean just you know, bury forward, very nice, very sweet. But she said, yes, I've seen this space a few times looking in the window.
And I said, if we didn't mind describing at to me, She said, sir, it was like a huge man's face, but it was no man, had very rough skin, had hair around its space, but not on its space, so that makes sense. And I had huge, big, red glowing eyes, and of course to her being a Pentecostal and stuff like that, her belief and everything, rating it to a demon or devil. But she said it never tried to break in the house. She said she didn't send any
evil off it. Even though I had red eyes, it didn't seem like it was evil or wanting to attack her or wanted to break in the house. And it never destroyed anything in that property except for that night breaking to that cattle game. So I guess because he did that because the fact we shocked as much as it shocked good. So we set up at night drinking coffee.
No one slept, everyone want was too shook up. Morning, we just went out there and pulled the reconn and went back to the point of origin with a jumped the fence originally from the swamp into the pasture, found the prince, and we measured them on. My feet are ten inches my shoes and I can put pretty much heel to heel to toe in one print. My toe is hanging over. So we've pretty much figured calculated about
seventeen inches. Those prints were so pretty big across the pasture, went to the course where it crashed to the cattle gate. We didn't find any hair on the original bob wire where he jumped the fence. We cleared that five foot fence, the candle gate, we found blood and hair. And now, of course this is back in seventy five, long before computers, long before cell phones was out. No one had a camera. We didn't have you know, camera phones and such, and we had no phones at all, so as far as
you know, cells go. But in any case, so I wish we had thought about grabbing some hair whatever, you know, thinking twenty years in their future, but you know whatever, But we didn't. But in any case, we noticed as you looked at it, examined everything with that cattle gate was crushed flatter, just split the cattlegate pieces, shattered it. The force of that thing going through there pulled the
corner post over. Corner post is made of a cut down telephone pole that's something about five foot deep in the ground. It didn't break it, but it pulled it over and laid it down to do that requires a tremendous amount of force. Tremendous amount of force, and also about twenty foot the other side of the cattle gate with a squeeze chute. Squeeze shote basically is basically where you put your cattle runs in through there, squeeze them down, hold them in place so you can tag them or
clip their horns, what have you. It meant that all up again, tremendous amount of force. They didn't want to contact law enforcement. They didn't want to contact any anyone to do with game more than the stuff. They didn't want the word getting out because they did a lot of all their their vegetables. For stuff they grew, they went ahead and sold over in town. Camden at the time was a very small town back then, so they
didn't want the word getting out. People took their crazy, so they didn't want to ruin their reputation, so they they didn't want it talked about. So I kept them, you know, closed up, wouldn't talk about it, and I didn't. I came out of military eighty one, settled here in Louisiana, and I went ahead and.
To mine.
I went to work law enforcement. Retired about three years ago from law enforcement. I never talked about it anybody until only my wife's uncle. He said he's seeing one out here. He didn't want to talk about it much, so I didn't tell my story for the first time for some years. And he was the first one I told and couraged him to tell his story, and he told him. He said, I'm not crazy. Then I said, no, sir, you're not crazy. I promise you's not crazy.
