I was joy riding on Eglin AFB, TDY at Hurlburt Field. So, I take off through a clearcut and got stuck in some branches, high centered in water; had to walk out and "steal" a duce-and-a-half to get the 3/4ton out of the swamp. At the time, there was no other U.S. Army in the whole state of Florida. Middle of the night and I had to walk ten miles back to the compound, leap frogging, driving past one and walking back, etc. Well, there was something out there that seemed to follow me the whole way. I thought it was a bear but that stuff shakes you up, especially since I already had my dick hanging out with the vehicle. When I got out of the woods, it was a relief, but something kept up with me through virtually impenetrable jungle. I think this was the Okefenoke(sp) north of the runways? Un inhabited area. BB
