PROFESSOR MOORE - 6/8/94 34
miles. Then he had Don Edmondson went to Silver City frequently.
Then he had some place he called Donna, Las Cruces is in Donna
Anna county, but I don't know where his Donna site was. But I
think he had microphones scattered all around in central New
Mexico and West Texas. But the explosions were all created
either on the White Sands Proving Ground, or there were V-2
rockets, or they were things coming from •••
I won't take the time now, but he talks about cruises, which
apparently are, maybe they were cruisers firing off the Jersey
coast.
We got off into this, we were talking about tracking, and we
went down to, in early June, to make service flights which were
to be tracked by radar, and the radar was unsuccessful. It's my
memory that we made a number of flights just to test out the
radar. These would not have had a reward tag on them. These
were throw away flights. Once a target like this comes down from
high altitude or drag, you don't want it back. It's my memory we
didn't want to have anything traced back to us, if we weren't
going to go out and pick it up.
Q:
fell? So you just kind of let the material lie wherever it
A: We shot a balloon into the air and didn't want to do
any more. There are some pictures of our going out to recover
things. On one of the early flights we went out east of Roswell,
and I remember beyond the Bottomless Lakes, going out in oil well
country, picking up one of our flights that had come down. We
aggressively tried to recover our own flights.
Q: So were you directed to that location by aircraft?
A: By the aircraft.
Q: Did they give you a lat and long, landmark?
A: We talked to them by radio. The transmitters on these
microphones were so low powered that, believe it or not, they had
B-17s just orbiting under our balloons with receivers aboard the
aircraft, and we, of course, would talk to the aircraft, and
they'd tell us when things would come down. So it was a
coordinated operation.
Q: So you had explosions or V-2 going through. So the
aircraft had recording devices. You had the acoustical pickup on
the balloon and the aircraft had the recording device that would
record the sounds.
A: That's correct. Would record the signal from the
balloon.
Q: In what media was it recorded on?
