Summary and Conclusions
The Historical Research Agency is primarily a repository for unit histories and
supporting documents, and it has never routinely received the kind of records which
might provide details of the Roswell incident H such records survive today, they will
undoubtedly be held by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA),
either at the Washington National Records Center (WNRq or the Southwest Regional
Depository (Fort Worth, Texas).
Recommendations
Because the records management policy of the federal government requires that obsolete
office files be retired to the NAAA the WNRC and the NARA Southwest Regional
Depository might be searched for files related to the Roswell incident
AFHRA microfilm roll33,764 indicates that the Fourth Air Force and its A-2 intelligence
section apparently carried out investigations of flying disks in the western US in 1947.
Research in the NARA, therefore, might reasonably include a search for surviving HQ
Fourth AF and Fourth AF A-2 Section files in the NARA.
