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.

Governmentreservations,thenthis explainswhy they may havebeentold to leavethe
landing site. In the popularRoswell scenarios,witnesseswere allegedlyinstructed
by military personnelto leavethe areabecausethey witnessedsomethingof a highly
classihednature. This would be unlikely sincethe witnessesdescribedprojectsthat
utilized anthropomorphicdummies which were unclassified.It is likely, however,
that if the witnessesventuredonto one of theserangesthey were instructedto leave,
not becauseof classifiedactivities,but for their own safety.
These conclusions are supported by official tiles, technical reports,
extensive photographic documentation, and the recollections of numerous
former and retired Air Force members and civilian employees who conducted
Projects HIGHDIVE and EXCELSIOR.The descriptions examined here, provided
by UFO theorists themselves, were so remarkably-and redundantly- similar
to theseAir Force projects that the only reasonableconclusion can be that the
witnesses described these activities. These many similarities are summarized in
Tablel.1.
The next section will examine the accounts of “aliens” at the
hospital at Roswell Army Air Field. As previously stated, due to the lack of
general or detailed similarities with testimony of the two rural “crash sites,”
the hospital account was determined not to be associated with these reports.
