Fulgham recalled that upon his return to work at the Aero Medical
Laboratory he received reactions of "immediate compassionate sympathy"
from persons he encountered, including his secretary, who cried when she
saw him. 239 Within several weeks, Fulgham returned to flying status with
no permanent effects. Fulgham went on to complete a distinguished career
in the Air Force and retired as a colonel in 1978. Fulgham's assignments
included combat tours in fighter aircraft in both Korea and Vietnam, as well
as an assignment as an experimental parachutist and physiologist for the
space program.
Summary
In this section, documented research revealed that the reports of
"bodies" at the Roswell AAF hospital were grossly inaccurate and most
probably had origins in actual Air Force mishaps. Examinations of official
records of the alleged primary witnesses revealed that the "missing nurse"
was never missing, and the pediatrician did not arrive at the Walker AFB
hospital until 1951-four years after the alleged incident. The many
fundamental errors in the story, combined with the substantial similarities to
the actual mishaps, show that the most credible account associated with the
"Roswell Incident" is certainly not extraterrestrial and is unrelated to any
events that occurred in July 1947.
