The Roswell Report: Fact vs. Fiction in the New Mexico Desert

USAF / The Black Vault · 1995 · 882 pages · text by OCR

The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert was published by Headquarters United States Air Force in 1995. The Black Vault distributes this copy. It reproduces the report by Col. Richard L. Weaver and the synopsis by 1st Lt. James McAndrew, both written after a General Accounting Office inquiry requested by Representative Steven Schiff. The Air Force search found no evidence of an extraterrestrial craft or crew. It concluded that the Roswell debris most likely came from NYU Flight No. 4, a Project MOGUL balloon train.

Dear Bill,

Attached is the action on your letter requesting deferment of foreign service for some of your people. I hope this solves your personnel problem for the time being. I am still waiting for the study on Wright Field people ordered to school this fall.

Sincerely,

CURTIS E. LeMAY Major General, U. S. Army Deputy Chief of Air Staff for Research and Development
