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.

other than a weather balloon.• And, I said: "I want you to quit inferring that I am staying silent
under an oath of security." And, finally, I think about two years, later Randle told me: "Hey, we
believe you." It wu getting ridiculous. I wu getting so sick and tired ofthis garbage.
RW: Yeah. I sensed a little of reluctance when I first calJed up and ... "like, Oh no, here we go
