ovemment during the last 47 years). Fourth, many of the persoru; making the
figgest claims of "alien bodies" make their living from the "Roswell Incident."
While having a commercial interest in something does not automatically make it
suspect, it does raise interesting questions related to authenticity. Such persons
should be encouraged to present their evidence (not speculation) directly to the
government and provide all pertinent details and evidence to support their claims
if honest fact-finding is what is wanted. Lastly, persons who have come forward
and provided their names and made claims may have, in good faith but in the
"fog of time," misinterpr.eted past events. The review of Air Force rec~rds did not
· locate even one piece of evidence to indicate that the Air Force has had any part
in an "alien" body recovery operation or continuing cover-up.
During the course of this effort, the Air Force has kept in dose touch with the
GAO and responded to their various queries and requests for assistance. This
report was generated as an official response to the GAO, and to document the
considerable effort expended by the Air Force on their behalf. It is anticipated that
that the GAO will request a copy of this report to help formulate the formal
report of their efforts. It is recommended that this document serve as the final Air
Force report related to the Roswell matter, for the GAO, or any other inquiries.
