CHAPTER 3<br />
MY FIRST PRESIDENT<br />
Muskegon, Michigan is a coastal <strong>to</strong>urist attraction, and home of the annual<br />
Seaway and Coast Guard festivals which bring people <strong>to</strong> the <strong>to</strong>wn from all over<br />
Michigan. VanderJagt remained publicly visible through opportunities such as<br />
these. My father often could be seen with Vanderjagt and was pho<strong>to</strong>graphed at<br />
his side white judging festival events like the kiddie parades, sand sculpturing<br />
contests, and so on—all of which I entered and won. In later years, my father<br />
polished and shined the red paint of his 1966 Ford convertible <strong>to</strong> chauffeur<br />
VanderJagt through the local parades. This only served <strong>to</strong> reinforce the illusion<br />
that my father was a "pillar of the community".<br />
In 1973, Sena<strong>to</strong>r Byrd instructed my father <strong>to</strong> send me <strong>to</strong> Muskegon<br />
Catholic Central High School which was overseen by the direc<strong>to</strong>r of St. Francis<br />
of Assisi Church, Father Lepre. The Catholic church, of course, has its own<br />
political structure, with the Pope presiding over all. The strong political ties<br />
between the Catholic church and the U.S. Government was overtly evidenced<br />
by the much publicized relationship between the President and the Pope during<br />
the Reagan Administration. Of course, I had been privy <strong>to</strong> this political<br />
relationship ever since my First Communion-a relationship that the Rite <strong>to</strong><br />
Remain Silent was intended <strong>to</strong> cover. My experience with Catholic Central's<br />
direct involvement in Project Monarch's physical and psychological<br />
conditioning further confirmed the union between the U.S. Government and the<br />
Catholic church.<br />
When Sena<strong>to</strong>r Byrd changed my school from public <strong>to</strong> Parochial, he also<br />
destroyed through dissociation my school personality. I no longer viewed<br />
school as my haven from abuse, as it was controlled by the church and, as I<br />
later learned, moni<strong>to</strong>red by a corrupt segment of the C.I.A.<br />
By the time I enrolled in Catholic Central, the cliques and groups had<br />
already been formed. 1 had a personality <strong>to</strong> fit in with the "good" kids and one<br />
that interfaced with the "bad". It did not take long for the "good" kids <strong>to</strong> notice<br />
1 also got along with the "bad". I soon found the only kids that could relate <strong>to</strong><br />
me were the other known Project victims. We clung <strong>to</strong>gether in a close knit<br />
group, herded around like the proverbial sheep by those in the school who knew<br />
we were MPD/DIDed and under mind control. We each switched personalities<br />
as circumstance demanded, most often in unison. We were ritually traumatized,<br />
constantly tranced, and then programmed during school hours. Since 1 no<br />
longer had my singular "school personality" and was constantly switching<br />
instead, the compartment of my brain that held school memory was no longer<br />
consciously retrievable. Therefore, I had no basis for continued learning aside<br />
from what I could pho<strong>to</strong>graphically memorize from class. My grades appeared<br />
erratic, ranging from A's <strong>to</strong> failing. And some A's received I did not earn<br />
academically.<br />
In my required religion class, Sister Ann Marie bad been leading us in study<br />
on the <strong>to</strong>pic of Confession, This was <strong>to</strong> prepare us for the kind of Confessions<br />
we were <strong>to</strong> be giving Father Vesbit, who was also our school principal. The<br />
day Sister ordered us <strong>to</strong> Confession, I refused <strong>to</strong> go. I unconsciously feared 1<br />
would be sexually assaulted again in the Confessional, this time while my<br />
teenage peers waited impatiently outside the door. Sister made an example out<br />
of me <strong>to</strong> the class, saying I was a "Satanist" and that I was "going <strong>to</strong> hell".
