The 1973 Pascagoula event

This UFO related incident is one of the more intriguing in UFO lore.
You can read about here, the Wikipedia account and a Washington Post report:
I’m a Facebook “friend” of Calvin Parker, pictured here with Charles Hickson:
Calvin has a popular book about his experience, and I suggest you get/read it; it’s a gem, an authentic witness account of a truly remarkable incident, no matter what it ultimately turns out to be.
I’ve written, in the past, that these two good ol’ boys had a folie à deux moment:
The “psychiatric” incident brought on by, maybe, some bad liquor or other ingested material(s).
Reading Calvin one might disagree.
But were the two fellows “abducted” by extraterrestrial visitors? Or taken by some other paranormal entities from elsewhere?
There is little doubt in my mind (and the mind of others) that Calvin and Charles had what they say happened to them.
If it was a delusion, it was a good one.
Although psychiatry and psychologists (plus science itself) think, generally, even totally, that delusions are false experiences.
But there are excellent delusions in the literature and “history”:
The meeting of Jesus by two of His disciples on the Road to Emmaus

The voice(s) that afflicted Joan of Arc, causing her to battle (and be martyred)

The alleged dream of Abraham Lincoln in which he foresaw his death (assassination)

The Betty/Barney Hill alien kidnapping

And if Calvin and Charles experienced a shared delusion, that was an excellent one also.
José Caravaca’s Distortion Theory provides an hypothesis that explains the Pascagoula episode.
The ETH oriented explanation doesn’t sit well with me, for the reasons often enumerated here.
So what happened to Calvin Parker? He had a unique experience, that’s certain, but the true nature of it remains a mystery, a good one, but still a mystery.
