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.

people. You have... It’s a question of honor, and that’s very sound. I
applaud you for that. There’s not too many people around these days
that are concerned about that kind of thing. And it’s also, from an
investigator’s point of view, an advantage, too.
A: I’ve never read this stuff, I’ve never watched the videos, I’ve
never read any books, I haven’t even read Stan’s books, I haven’t even read
[Kevin] Rand& only what they say about me. Friedman is a lot more
accurate, but see...
Q: You mean about...
A: About me. I’ve read that. That’s the only thing I’ve read.
I’m not a UFO guy. I’ve got another life besides UFOs. But anyway, Stan
Friedman’s story is pretty well right. But Randle and them was always
said I got curious. I didn’t get curious. I went out there on a call, just
like I told you.
Q: The section of their book that refers to you is really kind of
cryptic, anyway.
A: They said the book was already published. Now they had a
copy... Friedman sent them a copy of my tape. They had the (inaudible).
Hell, they had my tape. They just made that up. Somebody did.
Q: I was puzzled by it when I read their book. That whole
section where they refer to you, and it’s all very mysterious, and your name
is not referred to in the table of contents, but you’re in the list of people that’s
been interviewed, but you’re not one of the key people lists.,.
A: They never did interview me.
Q: They never talk to you at all?
A: Not personally. They didn’t interview me until a long time
later, a year or so later. They only had Stan’s tape.
Q: So when they were actually writing their book...
A: The book was already published.
Q: When they were doing the writing, they were working from
Stan’s tape.
A: Evidently.
Q: Who was actually the first UFO investigator to get in touch
with you?
A: Stan Friedman. When they had Unsolved Mysteries here
and different ones. There was a lot of people... I’d get different ones. I had
different people come and say we want to talk to you about the UFOs, and I
said I don’t have anything to say, I don’t want to talk about it, and I never
did. I’ve talked to very few people since.
