== Biography ==
On the morning of 12 September 1958, Hooper briefed a squadron of F4U Corsairs to investigate disappearances that had plagued the US Navy and Air Force for the past fifty years. It was suspected that something in the Bermuda Triangle caused navigation instrument failure. Problems had been reported as far back as the 1490s after an unidentified object had fallen from the skies.
The squadron radioed him that a strange disturbance or ripple in the air had been reported. Radio connection faltered but reports came through of strange metallic creatures which rose up from an island where a rusting alien craft had crash-landed. Hooper wondered if it was the source of the disturbances. He listened in horror as the creatures opened fire on the squadron. The sound of crackling energy blasts and endless explosions from the planes being torn apart from enemy fire filled his ears.
The last message described the seas as a military graveyard, full of the victims. Hooper would record this in his personal journal, praying that these monsters stayed in the isolated stretch of ocean and none of his men would ever have to see them again. (PROSE: Bermuda Triangle Incident)
