The Roswell Report: Case Closed

something similar to those words. She said the only way you can contact me
is through this APO number, and there was an APO number. It was a New
York APO number.
Q: So she'd gone to Europe or some place.
A: Then right on the bottom she says, "I'm in London." That was
it. I wrote a note, just a note, that said if you feel like it and you get time,
then I would love to know and we'll correspond. Mine came back. That was
about three or four weeks later. Mine came back.
Q: That was the one that was marked deceased?
A: Yes. It said return to sender, [addressee] deceased.
Q: Then what did you do?
A: (inaudible)
Q: You didn't try to follow up or see if there was any possible...
A No. I asked (inaudible), at the time we called her Slatts
Wilson, a big tall nurse, 6'2", 6'3", big tall skinny girl. We called her Slatts.
Everybody called her Slatts. She's the one that told me she'd heard that there
was a plane crash and she was the nurse that went down on a training mission.
She said that's strictly rumor, I don't know anything about it. That's what 1...
Q: No one's been able to tum that one up at all.
A: I guess maybe I should never even mention this. I know no

Q: I don't know if that's true.
A: Anyway, it was a hell of a story. I told (inaudible). I said I

I'd give a sacred oath and I didn't want to get involved. Well, it's been 45
years, almost 40 years, and I haven't heard anything. He said I will do it
confidentially and nobody else will have this name. Well, that's where he
broke his promise after that. I got all over him about it. I called him and
I was madder than hell. He said well, Bob Shirkey was the one that told
everybody, that he was sitting in the back of us. Bob brought Stan [Friedman]
up there when he interviewed me. He said, Bob Shirkey was the one that let
out her name. To this day, Stan Friedman (inaudible) still says he did not
put her name out. I've been on several shows, not several, but two or three
interviews, and I'm not going to mention her name. If somebody says is this
her name? I'm not going to say it is or it isn't. I told Stan ... I was madder
than hell about it, because I did give my word.
Q: There's another side to that, too, from the standpoint of
those who are trying to get some answers. By not having her name
around, it makes it easier to cross-check the stories that you get from
