Documents / Official release
This Clinton Presidential Library release from NSC email records, filed under Roswell, covers April 19 to November 30, 1995. In an April 1995 email, NSC staffer William Leary says the NSC holds no records on the 1947 Roswell incident and that any records would most likely be at the Archives. Later emails circulate drafts of President Clinton's Belfast Christmas tree lighting remarks. The final transcript includes his answer to 13-year-old Ryan: as far as he knows, no alien spacecraft crashed at Roswell in 1947.

UNCLASSIFIED Subject: RE: #2948 [UNCLASSIFIED] Funches, Christina L. Andricos, George M. Danvers"William C .. Kreczko, Alan 1. Sestak, Joseph A. Chris, I assume that Bill or Mike will want to handle the response to GAO. I can provide most of the answer, and will be happy to draft something if that is the preferred approach. ' The NSC has no records concerning the 1947 incident at Roswell. And I doubt that anyone on the NSC staff has any "knowledge" of this UFO incident, but Joe Sestak could confirm that. To the extent there are any records, they would most likely be at the Archives. The number they should call to pursue the matter there is 301-71-3-7250. From: Funches, Christina L. To: Leary, William H. CC: IN, NonRecord at Al Subject: #2948 [UNCLASSIFIED] Date: Tuesday, April 18, 1995 03:48 PM How should Bill handle this request? Thanks.
