For years, entrepreneur Gregory Sancoff sent images of his unique design to the Office of Naval Research images. But as he stated: (QUOTE) "They laughed at me; they thought I was crazy." Though discouraged, the visionary continued his work until the authorities suddenly showed interest - but not in the usual way.

After six months of intense work in his hangar, Sancoff got a call from his attorney. Frantically, he said: (QUOTE) "I got something in the mail, I've never seen anything like it, and I've been practicing for 35 years."

The US Patent and Trademark Office had sent a letter with a recommendation from the Office of Naval Research. It was a secrecy order. Sancoff was forbidden from filing his patents internationally or talking about his invention - not even to potential customers. And they didn't say why.

So his creation awaited patiently in a rusted and ivy-covered building of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Maine… until the Ghost, the "attack helicopter of the seas," could be publicly revealed.
