Ch 4: Stolen Post 2

In Slaughterhouse-five, Billy Pilgrim is abducted by Tralfamadorians, an alien race.  This relates to a couple named Betty and Barney Hill.  The couple were the first people to get much media attention for claiming to be abducted by aliens.  They claimed to be abducted on Sept. 19-20, 1961, eight years before the book was written.
