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

USAF / The Black Vault · 1995 · 882 pages · text by GLM-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.

Project MOGUL Field Operations Director Albert P. Crary maintained a journal of his professional activities including Project MOGUL research in the summer of 1947. Portions of his journal provided details necessary to reconstruct events not available from published MOGUL reports (see App 17). In addition to his work for the Air Force, this world-enowned scientist is credited with significant contributions to the study of Polar regions; a research center at McMurdo Station, Antarctica was recently named in his honor.
