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.

Q: Now we’re back to the Officers’ Club and you met her there.
When you saw her, how did she look?
A: Like a nervous wreck. Her hair wasn’t combed or nothing.
She said she’d been sick all night crying and everything else, and she was
still crying, She was hysterical. She put her hands over her face and said 1
can’t believe it. The most horrible thing she’d ever seen. She was really in
bad shape.
Q: You called her and wanted to get in touch with her to talk with
her about what happened.
A: I was curious.
Q: Did she seem reluctant at tirst to talk to you about it?
A: No, she said I’ve got to talk to you. I want to know what
happened to you. She said I’ve got to talk to somebody, and that was it. You
know, I’d see her a lot. I knew all those old girls out there, you know.
Q: Did she give you any indication or any reason to believe that
she had been told to keep her mouth shut about it, or...
A: Well, yeah, because I’ll tell you what. She had this drawing
on the back of a prescription pad, these little bodies, it was on the back, a
little small thing on the back of a prescription pad. She said, “I’m going to
show you something, and you have to give me your sacred oath that you
won’t tell anybody when you got this and you won’t ever mention my name,
becauseI will get in a lot of trouble.” That’s what she said. “I will get in a
lot of trouble.”
Q: She didn’t say specifically that somebody had...
A: No, shejust said, “I will get in a lot of trouble.” She said,
“Will you do that?’ I said, “Sure.”
She showed me that. And she had it written on the back like I had
it on the back of that, you have my drawing, where I said note, and all that.
That’s what she said.
Q: She let you keep that, she gave it to you?
A: Yeah, she said you look at it and you throw it away. I never
did. I went and took it back and put it in my personal file.
Q: Which subsequently got tossed, apparently.
A: Well, all the files got tossed.
Q: What happened?
A: Well, the funeral home, I hired some guys, the manager up
there now [was there] before I left, and Raymond said that he doesn’t
know, because when he was working up there was another manager, and
he said he thought Joe [Lucas] told (inaudible). Of course Joe and I
weren’t very good friends and we’d had some problems over the funeral
