During the early 1960s, a young man was migrating through California to avoid the military draft. While staying in a homeless tent camp, he heard stories about abductions by 'hairy men.'
"In 1963, during the Vietnam War period, a friend, looking to avoid the draft, was hopping trains across California. He did odd jobs to pay for food and sometimes stayed at homeless tent camps, many of which had been erected in the woods along the railways on the West Coast at the time.
The witness recalled being told, while in the Central Valley, by one of the camp stayers early on to be vigilant at night, that when the farming season ended, people had a tendency to disappear. This fellow blamed it on the “hairy men,” and claimed that when the farming season ended, they preyed on people.
The witness thought it silly, though sometime later, a man did go missing from the camp and it was blamed on a “hairy man.” The witness felt the campstayers were completely sincere. He also heard talk of a “boneyard” with human remains found in the forest.
He eventually left and returned home. He would ultimately be drafted to serve in the military though he remained stateside repairing engines. (At no point does he claim to have seen a Bigfoot though he does believe that something anomalous was happening at those homeless camps)."
