Operation BF (Booger Field)

My new operations

May 30th, 1968 and I have been recovered for about two weeks now from the incident that I had with the creature. Mrs. Thorne and I were becoming really good friends. Exchanging phone calls whenever we would get the time. Today I wouldn't get the chance to have free time.

"Gage," I heard a voice outside my room and a knocking.

"Yeah," I replied in a respectful manner.

"You need to report to Sergent Dillon's office immediately." He said before walking away. I didn't get the chance to ask why or anything. Well I guess I should get going than. I got up and got into b uniform clinching my chest still. Even after a few weeks recovery I still was feeling the affects of my injuries, however it wasn't that bad anymore. Chest would still hurt from getting up and laughing. Things like that would cause overexersion and would hurt my chest area doing those type of activities.

While walking down the hall I past a few men who were watching me walk by. I felt really uncomfortable with all the eyes staring at me.

I was really glad when I opened the door to the sergent's office. Not relieved by anymeans, but I was glad to see him looking at me with a more positive demeanor.

"Come on in here Darkman." He said to me while putting his cigar out in his ashtray. I came in the room but didn't say a word because now the demeanor in the air changed.

"Come sit down son." He than said with a little more of an agitated tone. I sat down and that is when the talking began.

"We know about what you saw and heard out there during combat. Before you open your mouth son, I'm going to inform you about these beings. You see, these creatures are what we call boogers where I come from. They are known otherwise as the Sasquatch here, Bigfoot, Yeti, Yowie, Omah, Hairyman. The list goes on, these creatures are very dangerous and need to be got rid of. You should know, you saw what this thing did to your camp. Now we are in need of a certain person to help us take these things out. You would be switch from position in the Air Force to a CIA agent. This job is up to you, but you must be warn that either way. We don't want to hear you breathe a word of this to anybody, including that nurse you have became so affectionate with. Do you understand?" He told me all at once and fairly quickly. How did they know all this information about me.

"How do you know all of this s**t about me!" I exclaimed at him before he raised his voice back at me to say, "You will not raise your voice at me Darkman! You have two choices and I've made this very simple enough for you! Are you in or are you out, either way don't talk about any of this to anyone! Know that the government knows your every move and will find you if you breathe a word to anyone! Understand or do I have to spell it out for you!" He exclaimed back at me after my abrupt behavior towards him.

"Yes sir!" I said back in a stern voice and yet not yelling still.

"Good, now are you in or out?" He asked me. My mind started racing trying to figure out what to say. I mean I did see how violent it was towards us and knew what it was capable of.

"I'm going to have to think on it a few days." I told him before he would continue.

"Ok that is alright. Just remember, no speaking of any if this. Your dismissed." He told me before saluting and going back to his work. That was a quick talk I'll admit, but probably because he didn't like the tone I got with him over this incident.

The next few nights it was hard to sleep. I would stay up most night thinking about what the sergent had said. How did he know anything about me, I'm a quiet guy. How did he find out all that information about me? It didn't make sense. The days were never really eventful as all I would do was walk the perimeter if the base making sure things were safe and secure. I would walk around and ponder even more about the idea. After awhile I decided I should take them up on the offer. I came in the door of his office one day.

"Permission to speak sir?" I asked him sincerely.

"Granted," he told me back.

"I've been thinking back to our conversation and I would like to take you up on the offer." I told him. He than proceeded to smile at me.

"I knew you would come around eventually." He told me. "I've got a job for you already Darkman. Have you heard of the Bennington Triangle in Vermont?" He asked me.

"No sir I don't." I told him not knowing what he was talking about.

"Well this triangle extends around the Glatensbury Mountain in Vermont. Been know for mysterious disappearances since it was first discovered. They all occurred back in the forties and fifties. People haven't been able to find the source of the disappearances. People say that there is something on the mountains that doesn't want people going up there and people have reported seeing a strange creature like the one you encountered in Nam." He told me.

"Oh really. That can't be a good sign of things to come than." I told him

"Yes that's why I need you to go out there and study these things and see what their behavior patterns are. I need you to get more info on these creatures. Do you understand me?" He said sternly.

"Yes sir," I said proudly. I'm now part of the CIA and on my first assignment. Destination Vermont.
