    Hi! Thanks so much for your interest in my books!My principal interests are true stories of the unusual or of the previously Unknown or unexplained. I have occasionally also written some fiction.I was born in Memphis Tennessee and grew up in Saltillo Mississippi, a small town near Tupelo Mississippi. High School life was dominated by watching the rise of our local Elvis. I was editor of the High School Paper and had plenty to write about. I guess this was the beginning of my writing career.After graduating from Mississippi State University as an aerospace engineer I moved to Orlando Florida and worked for Lockheed Martin for 24 years. I advanced from an aerospace engineer to a Vice President of the Company and President of the Tactical Weapons Systems Division.Education ActivitiesI continued my education throughout my career with a MBA degree from Rollins College and with Post Graduate Studies in Astrophysics at UCLA; Laser Physics at the University of Michigan; Computer Science at the University of Miami; Gas Dynamics at MMC and Finance and Accounting at the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania.While at Mississippi State University I was on the President’s Honor List and in the honor societies of Tau Beta Pi, Sigma Gamma Tau and Blue Key.I received a scholarship from Delta Air Lines based on my academics and performance.I was in ROTC and the Arnold Air Society where I participated and toured as a member of the precision Drill Team. I also attended the summer survival training at Hamilton Air Force Base in California.I was selected for Who’s Who among Students in American Universities and Colleges.I was a speaker for several technical organizations including the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.After Retirement from Lockheed Martin Aerospace CompanyAfter retirement from Lockheed I formed Parks-Jaggers Aerospace Company and sold it 4 years later.After selling my aerospace company I formed Quest Studios, Quest Entertainment and Rosebud Entertainment to make films at Universal Studios. I produced 11 films, directed 7 films and wrote 5 film scripts produced at Universal Studios.I won the National Association of Theater Owners Show South Producer of Tomorrow Award.I then formed UnknownTruths Publishing Company to publish true stories of the unusual or of the previously Unknown or unexplained. These include books about past events so unbelievable that most people have relegated them to "myths".I have published 37 books in eBook format, Paperback format and as Audio Books. I have an additional 12 books in development.

      Chapter I

      The Caribbean Vacation

      Matt always knew that his ancestor was a brutal pirate back in the 1600s. As a kid he would daydream about him. He always played the part of a pirate in all the games.

      When his new girlfriend suggested that they take a vacation in the Caribbean he was anxious to go. He was especially motivated during the last few weeks because he could not get his old pirate ancestor out of his mind.

      He seemed to have vivid images of him killing people and hiding treasure. Why are these visions becoming so vivid after all these years?

      He rented a 46 foot yacht in south Florida and headed for the Caribbean.

      When you are in the Caribbean sounds of romantic island music fill the senses. The visual scene is even more magnificent than the music.

      The clear blue sky complements the blue-green sea to give a feeling of endless space.

      Matt's rented sailing yacht is alone in the sea, racing towards a distant island. The brilliant colors of its billowing sails belie their tremendous force as they push the yacht across the rolling sea.

      The bow slices through the blue-green water casting a sparkling spray of rainbow hews. The yacht speeds through the shallow waters towards the white sand beach of a palm shrouded island of primitive, timeless beauty.

      It is a mesmerizing sight!

      Matt is a handsome man in his mid-thirties and dressed in his bathing suit. He is indeed mesmerized. He stands on the foredeck and quietly stares at the unbelievable scene.

      His face takes on a concentrated stare as he thinks of the pirates of old that use to sail these seas. He can almost hear the sounds of their times.

      His girlfriend, Kim, a beautiful hard body type in her late twenties, dressed in her thong bikini, watches Matt from her control position at the boat's wheel. She knows that he loves this moment. She smiles.

      Two crew members lean against the aft rail and admire Kim.

      As Kim watches Matt, the sounds of his daydream become clearer. Pirates are yelling as they prepare to anchor near the shore line. Matt can see Captain Jack, who looks a lot like Matt, commanding a crew of four pirates as they shove away from their pirate ship of the 1600's. They are in a dingy of old. A sixth pirate, Hawkins, seems to be second in command. There is a large treasure chest in the middle of the dingy.

      Captain Jack speaks harshly to one of the crew: Move it!

      The four crew members row towards the shore as Captain Jack stands with one foot on the treasure chest.

      Hawkins moves closer and deliberately places a foot on the chest and stares at the Captain.

      Hawkins: I don't want my part buried. I say split it up and let each man be responsible
