The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert was published in 1995 by Headquarters United States Air Force. It was written in response to Representative Steven H. Schiff's request and a General Accounting Office audit, and it contains Col. Richard L. Weaver's report and 1st Lt. James McAndrew's synopsis, along with attachments, appendices and photographs. The report says researchers found no evidence of an extraterrestrial craft or crew. It concludes that the 1947 debris came from a Project MOGUL balloon train.

SC: Yes, I guess you could say that. I was the only commissioned officer. I had two enJisted agents "working for me" quote end quote. RW: Who were the enlisted agents that worked for you? SC: The senior was a Master Sergeant by the name of Rickett and the young agent, Jack Williams.

I am a little fuzzy on that because I wasn't in the organization very long, you know. RW: OK. General Blanchard was the Base Commander and everyone else in the S09th basically reported to him then? SC: Oh yeah. Colonel Blanchard. RW: Oh yeah. Excuse me, Colonel Blanchard. SC: He was the Wmg Commander of the 509th, right. I didn't report to anybody on the base. RW: Just like in OSI? SC: Yeah, I associated and coordinated stuff with Marcel and I had no responsibility to Blanchard or Marcel. RW: Do you recall an incident that happened during the early part of July when you were asked to accompany Major Marcel to go recover some wreckage of anything? SC: Well, there again I couldn't swear to the dates, but in that time, which must have been July, we heard that someone had found some debris out not too tar &om RosweU and it looked suspicious; it was unidentified. So, I went out and I do DOt recall whether Marcel went with Rickett and me; I bad Rickett with me. We went out to tbis site. There were no, as I understand, check points or anything like that (going through guards and that sort of garbage) we went out there and we found it.
