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.

SECTION TWO
Reports of Bodies at the
Roswell AAF Hospital
This section examines the remaining portion of the Roswell
Incident claims-the reports of “bodies” at the Roswell AAF hospital.
Examinations of the various “crashed saucer” scenarios revealed
references to the Roswell AAF hospital appeared in virtually all of them.
Most of these were based on the account of one individual, W. Glenn
Dennis. His undocumented and uncorroborated recollections, reportedly
first related in 1989, over 42 years after the alleged Roswell Incident, are
based on activities he allegedly encountered as a mortician providing
contract services to the Roswell AAF hospital. Dennis’ recollections
have, in turn, been interpreted by UFO theorists as evidence that the U.S.
Army Air Forces recovered “alien” bodies and autopsied them at the
Roswell AAF hospital in July 1947.
Dennis has been described as the “star witness” and his claims
as the most credible of the Roswell Incident.’ This, even though his most
sensational assertions were not based on his own experiences but on
information allegedly related to him by unidentified mystery witnesses.
