Speaker 2: I talked to this veteran one time from the Vietnam War,
Speaker 2: and I'll tell you exactly where I was in Low's.
Speaker 2: I think I was in the tool section and I
Speaker 2: get a call from this guy. He had sent me
Speaker 2: a real brief email and I could never get a
Speaker 2: hold of them, and he had mentioned Vietnam and the
Speaker 2: rock apes, which I've always been fascinated with, and so
Speaker 2: I sent him my number just because he would never
Speaker 2: pick up his phone. And so he calls me and
Speaker 2: I begged this guy to come on the air. I mean,
Speaker 2: I rarely ever, I could probably count on one hand
Speaker 2: how many times I've begged someone to come on the air.
Speaker 3: This guy was probably the top of the list.
Speaker 2: But he was this veteran, and he was an older guy,
Speaker 2: and he said, you know, he goes, my nephew told
Speaker 2: me to listen to your show.
Speaker 3: And he goes, I think i've seen one of those.
Speaker 2: Sasquatches that you guys talk about, or I've seen those
Speaker 2: sasquatches that you guys talk about, and he goes, When
Speaker 2: I was in Vietnam, we would run into them all
Speaker 2: the time. And he would say, you know, in Vietnam,
Speaker 2: there's gibbons, there's snubnosed monkeys, there's He goes, we were
Speaker 2: aware of the primates in Vietnam. He goes, generally they're
Speaker 2: not that big anyway, but he goes, these things were very,
Speaker 2: very different. And not only were the US troops terrified
Speaker 2: of these sayings, the Vietcong was terrified of these things.
Speaker 2: And he said many times they had run into them
Speaker 2: thinking that it was the enemy force when it happened
Speaker 2: to be these things. And he goes, but you know,
Speaker 2: I don't know if they're actual sasquatches or not. And
Speaker 2: I said, why is that. And he goes, because they
Speaker 2: weren't that big. He goes, I'm talking four to six
Speaker 2: feet tall.
Speaker 3: He goes. They were wide, and they.
Speaker 2: Were stocky, and he goes generally, he goes, most of
Speaker 2: them kind of had a reddish brown color to them.
Speaker 3: There was a few black ones.
Speaker 2: One time they were out on patrol and they came
Speaker 2: across four of them. And this is after many encounters
Speaker 2: with these things, to look at them, like in the
Speaker 2: actual face, they kind.
Speaker 3: Of look human. He goes, it's really weird.
Speaker 2: It's not you know, your snubnosed monkey and some of
Speaker 2: the other macacus and their primeates we've run into, I
Speaker 2: wouldn't say they looked human in the face. He goes,
Speaker 2: These rock apes looked kind of human in the face.
Speaker 2: He said they had teeth like humans. And I asked
Speaker 2: him if they had fangs, and he said no, he'd
Speaker 2: never seen any of them with fangs.
Speaker 3: He said they all had square teeth, square white teeth.
Speaker 2: But they had come across four of them one time
Speaker 2: while they were on a patrol, and he said it
Speaker 2: was two males and two females, and the males just
Speaker 2: went nuts. They were screaming at them. They were, and
Speaker 2: he goes, all the soldiers are in shock, were like
Speaker 2: do we shoot these things?
Speaker 3: Do we you know?
Speaker 2: It was like that moment of shock of like okay,
Speaker 2: what is this. But he said they would come into
Speaker 2: their camp early in the morning throw rocks at them.
Speaker 2: One time one came into camp and it was screaming
Speaker 2: at them and shaking, shaking its fist. He said that
Speaker 2: they they talk. He goes, I'm telling you, they talk,
Speaker 2: not lie. An animal talks. He goes, it's some weird

Speaker 2: tempers and there was a lot of He knew if
Speaker 2: two soldiers that actually one had to be metavacked out
Speaker 2: of there, but two soldiers that were actually hitting the
Speaker 2: head with rocks from these things. And he goes, I
Speaker 2: don't know how these things have the aim that they have,
Speaker 2: but they would throw rocks at us. From pretty far
Speaker 2: away at a distance, and they would nail us with
Speaker 2: these rocks. And two soldiers he knew one had actually
Speaker 2: had been knocked out, totally cut, sliced open his head,
Speaker 2: huge rock hit him in the head. But he said
Speaker 2: they were They acted very human like in their behavior,
Speaker 2: almost like you know someone in your yard or someone
Speaker 2: setting up shop on your property, how you would react
Speaker 2: to it. He goes, that's how they kind of reacted,
