MEMORANDUM FOR THE SECRETARY OF THE AIR FORCE
FROM: SAF/AAZ
1720 Air Force Pentagon
Washington. DC 20330·1720
SUBJECT: Report of Air Force Research Regarding the "Roswell Incident"
JUL 2 7 19~M
Attached is a report prepared in support of a General Accounting Office (GAO) audit that
is seeking to identify information concerning the "Roswell Incident." The report documents the
considerable effort expended by numerous Air Force offices and personnel in this matter.
The Air Force efforts did not identify any indication that the "Roswell Incident" wu any
type of extraterrestrial event or that the Air Force has engaged in a 47 year conspiracy or "cover·
up" of infonnation relating to it. Therefore, it is assumed that pro.UFO groups will strongly
object to the attached report and denounce it u either shortsighted or a continuation of the
"cover-up" conspiracy. Nevertheless, the attached report is a good faith effort and the fint time
any agency of the government bas positively responded officially to the ever..:csalating claims
surrounding the Roswell matter.
