Philadelphia Experiment

[molf48]

Do anyone knows what really happend in Philadelphia Experiment? This ship was give in Hellenic Navy and some of my friends have the luck (?) to be a crew of that ship.. They told me that the ship was a mess! unlimited cables coming to one part of the ship to an other, some of the cable turn out nowhere! I believe them at this point.. but also they tell me that a lot of times they hear voices and hit in the boat coming from nowhere..

You are perpetuating a urban legend. If true this in interesting. Which ship was it? I thought it was scrapped or sunk?

I can speak fro experience that all ships have their ghosts. Had a couple o' freinds I did on the Forrestal in the 80's. Ya cant tell me that ship isnt haunted and make me believe it.

-- U.S. NAVY SHIPS --
USS Eldridge (DE-173), 1943-1951
USS Eldridge, a 1240-ton Cannon class destroyer escort built at Newark, New Jersey, was commissioned in August 1943. She was employed on escort duties in the Atlantic until May 1945, when she departed for service in the Pacific. Eldridge was decommissioned in July 1946 and placed in the Reserve Fleet. In January 1951, she was transferred to the Greek Navy, in which she served as Leon into the 1990s.

Good god. I cant believe people believe such ****. Sigh.

Ive read the story on the Eldridge and knew a few guys from Philly's yard that worked on her. Ofcoarse this would have been well after the Philadelphia Experiment due to their age. From what I understood the theory was time travel or some even considered a matrix type theory on bending light waves by degausing a concentrated magnetic field created around the ships hull in order to make her "disappear" as camoflauge. Dont know if its true but certainly interesting to read :) I believe there is also a movie about it.

Worth paranoia!

The USS E. was involved in some tests but they were to do with:

De-Gaussing
Radar invisibility

V. high Hz A/C waves can do all sorts of odd things. FWI the film is bloody awful.

(I forgot: before you start searching around the "net": how would one hide the dirty great smoke pume she had eh? Send it back in time? *******s )

Have fun following the ka-ka, it should give you a giggle :)

It just makes me angry.

Like abovetopsecret.com. Grrr. I feel my blood boiling already.
