We have all heard the story of the "Ghost tape 10", what was the record, what heard the horror movie. In this tape were messages, that if the Viet Cong fighters would not get home, their souls got in hell. This tape seemed to be useless against the Viet Cong, but sometimes it was used for some other use. In those river boat-operations in Mekong delta-area, this particular tape was used to cover other tapes. Those tapes were messages, where the Viet Cong-fighters were called to the beach to take the Soviet delivered equipment, and when those guerillas came, the gunboats and helicopters opened the fire.


Also, the "Ghost tape 10" were sometimes equipped with the subliminal messages, what have simultaneously repeated the messages, where the Viet Cong warriors claimed to be protected by the spirits, and also there were messages, that "The Viet Cong fighters must not care about enemy bullets and the training would make them bulletproof". That kind of loudspeakers claimed to drop near the training centers for making enemy's self-esteem twisted. And that might cause some losses for the enemy.


The third reason, why the "Ghost tape 10" was used, is that the beaches of the Mekong River were targeted high power ultra- and infrasound, what mission was to cause a headache for enemy troops. And also those sound weapon's mission was to deny the enemy from sleep, what made them tired, and then the CT-teams could kill them easily. But I don't know about the influence on those things. But the tired person is always the easier target.


The similar systems are planned to use in the hostage rescue missions. But this methodology has terrible ways to misuse it. It can use for provocating the riots, and that would give reason to call the riot control team to attack against those demonstrators. In this case, some mercenaries can target this kind of system against legal protesters, and then the using force against those people would be acceptable. In the Waco-siege from 1993, when the religious team committed suicide, one reason could be that after the David Koresh speaks some FBI agent said accidentally in the wrong moment words "do it" and then those people committed the suicide. Or in the worst scenarios, somebody has changed the tapes, for causing the massacre where 76 persons have died in the fire.

Why Sergeant Meyer stole C-130E Hercules in 1969, and why he disappeared?

In 1969 at Great Britain one man stole an aircraft and then flew it somewhere, and this man Sergeant Meyer didn't ever found. The aircraft, what this Sergeant stole was C-130E and this thing is quite mysterious. The story itself is behind the links on above and below the text, and you might read that story from those articles. But here I must say, that there are many strange things, what makes this case so interesting.


C-130's  were used in some top secret missions in Vietnam, and one of those missions were used that airplane as the  gunship, another was electronic intelligence and the last one was using that aircraft as the launch platform for "Firebee" drones, and they also dropped  BLU-82 "Daisy Cutter" bombs to the Vietnamese targets. Also, those airplanes gave airborne refueling for combat helicopters like MH-53 Super Jolly Green Giants, what were used in special air rescue missions.  If that Meyer took part in those operations, that would cause the violence in that man, because PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) causes that kind of symptoms, like violation and headache.

The first question, what we would perhaps ask from sergeant Meyer, would be where that man believed to go with that airplane? He stole that C-130 playing captain, but there is one thing, what we must handle. This is, that there might be very strange that captain rank officer would order gasoline for the overseas flight by using C-130. Of course, Meyer introduced himself as the captain of service crew, and in this case, the role, what that man took was the material officer.


In that article is claiming that Meyer was going to home to his stepchildren, but that meeting ever happened. Meyer was lost during this flight, and that was of course very stressful for his family. Meyer had two commands to Vietnam before that flight, and then some people believed, that man was under the emotional stress. He was drinking too much in his last evening, and that caused problems in the military base and outside it, and the problems began, when Meyer drunk too much in some parties, and then became violent. This would have something to do with that man's Vietnam duties, but if that sergeant was only the chief of the ground crew or technical crew, why would he got symptoms, what are common in combat veterans.

So was Meyer took part of actions of flight group "Commando Vault", and AC-130 gunship missions in Vietnam. When we are thinking about those operations that flight group destroyed million of North Vietnamese trucks in Ho Chi-Minh road. If Meyer was the member of SOCOM (Special Operations Command) that man could be played lower rank, what he actually had. And here comes very good question about that Sergeant. Where did he learn to fly that C-130E? Normally all pilots of the aircraft are actually officers, and if Meyer was some SOCOM or intelligence specialist, that man could actually fly his plane straight to home.


And another mission, where that man could serve were electronic intelligence missions, where the platform, what was used was C-130 "Hercules", what was equipped with electronic intelligence equipment, and the mission of those systems was to record the signals what North-Vietnamese radars send.  Also, C-130E was used in that time top secret drone-missions, where radio-controlled "Firebee" drones send to photograph North-Vietnamese military bases. Those early drones were highly classified, and the operations of those planes were also out of public eye. So if Meyer took part in those operations, that would explain strange disappearing of that man.


For the reason of lost that man and the plane was claimed to be that USAF shot down the C-130 and the man, who stole it. But if they did that, was the reason, because of some of those missions were illegal, and Meyer wanted to keep silent? Or did he just an ordinary sergeant, who just lost control of the C-130? But also the reason for shooting that plane down could be that somebody was afraid that Meyer would try to dive his plane in some house like The Parliament of Great Britain or White House. And that action could be made because saving the innocent lives. And this is only speculation. There is no evidence about that kind of orders, and also that Meyer involved some "Air Commando" operations in Vietnam is also speculation.
