PROFESSOR MOORE - 6/8/94
A: As I say, I find it hard to think that something •.•
While we may have been flying TNT on balloons and being very
carefree about it, I really doubt that a thing of any military
significance would have fallen this far away from the proving
ground. It could have, but •••
Q: Other than your balloons.
37
A: Oh yeah, those first flights we didn't even coordinate
with CAA. Peoples was so eager to go get those measurements,
that these were going to be flown from a restricted area and he
didn't worry about it. We later, before the Civil Air Board in
El Paso, but that was two or three months later.
Q: When you went on the field trips, what was the chain of
command at that point when you arrived? Who did you report to?
A: We were somewhat self contained, but we got housing
provided by, I guess Crary was our contact, if you will. Some
way or another, barracks were made available for us to live in at
Alamagordo.
Q: Would anyone at Roswell Army Air Field have known about
your activities, what your purpose was?
A: Not at all. In fact, we went over and tried to get
into the weather station at Roswell and because of the atomic
bomb security of the 509th, as I remember, we couldn't even get
on the base. We drove up in a weapons carrier to the Roswell
Army Air Field, and tried to get on the base because we wanted to
go to the weather station, wanted to see if we could put a
radiosonde receiver there. As I remember we got turned away.
Q: But you ultimately did put a radioson receiver there.
A: In a motel. We just worked out of motels in Roswell.
Q: I thought I saw you had a radioson receiver on Roswell
Army Air Field.
A: Again, forgive my memory, but I do remember being
turned away. But if you can find it, I'd be glad to have my
memory refreshed.
Q: I saw that you had a copy of the 509th Bomb Group
history. In the 509 the Bomb Group history from September I saw
a meeting where Dr. Peoples met with LTC Joe Briley, 830th the
Bomb Squadron Commander, 509th, Air Group Roswell. Do you know
why Dr. Peoples would meet with the squadron commander of a B-29
outfit?
A: Only if he wanted to get in to put a receiver on the
base there. That would be my guess. We had a big operation. we
went back to Alamagordo in September. We had our first 20 foot
