The Roswell Report: Case Closed

The Black Vault · 246 pages · text from the file's own layer

The Roswell Report: Case Closed was published by Headquarters United States Air Force and written by Capt. James McAndrew. It follows up the July 1994 report, which traced the 1947 debris to Project MOGUL balloon trains. The report says the reported alien bodies were probably anthropomorphic test dummies dropped from high altitude balloons. It also says the accounts of bodies at the Roswell Army Air Field hospital probably merged two separate events: a 1956 KC-97 crash and a 1959 manned balloon mishap.

Transcript of Interview with
W. Glenn Dennis*
(Alleged firsthand witness to
events at the Roswell AAF hospital)
Q: You started getting calls from the base mortuary officer is that
right, some time in the afternoon on some day in July [ 19471.
A: Right after noon, yeah,
Q: Do you recall, was that before the story appeared in the
[Roswell Daily] Record?
A: I don’t know. I’m sure it was. I can’t honestly say, but I
don’t think the paper came out until the next day, I don’t think. I’m just
assuming that.
Q: I understand. When things like that happen to me way after
the fact I try to remember, and I wasn’t sure if you had any recollection or
not. It was the base mortuary officer who called you, not any of the MDs
out there.
A: No,
Q: He was just, the mortuary officer was just the guy...
A: We used to have a standing joke. What did you do that was so
bad they made you the mortuary officer.
Q: Exactly.
A: He wasn’t a doctor or anything, but he was an officer and
he was probably some old boy they was trying to figure out something to
do with.
We used to all have them come in, even the officer himself, say,
“God, I didn’t know I screwed up that bad.”
Q: Was this a guy you’d worked with before? Somebody you
knew real well?
A: No. Those guys come and go.
Q: I realize that. You don’t remember what his name was or
anything like that?
A: No. I’m like Bob [Shirkey]. I think if I would see it or heard
it or something I might. Those guys, they were in and out. The mortuary
ofticer, usually they would appoint some sergeant or somebody. The only
time the doctors were involved is when you’d have an embalming inspection
