The piece he brought was brown in color, similar to plastic .... 'Mac' said the
other material on the property looked like aluminum foil. It was very flexible and
wouldn't crush or bum. There was also something he described as tape which
had printing on it. The color of the printing was a kind of purple ...."
Bessie Brazel Schreiber (daughter of W.W. Brazel; 14 years old at the time of the
incident). Affidavit dated September 22, 1993. " ... The debris looked like pieces
of a large balloon which had burst. The pieces were small, the largest I remember
measuring about the same as the diameter of a basketball. Most of it was a kind
of double-sided material, foil-like on one side and rubber-like on the other. Both
sides were grayish silver in color, the foil more silvery than the rubber. Sticks, like
kite sticks, were attached to some of the pieces with a whitish tape. The tape was
about two or three inches wide and had flower-like designs on it. The 'flowers'
were faint, a variety of pastel colors, and reminded me of Japanese paintings in
which the flowers are not all connected. I do not recall any other types of material
or markings, nor do I remember seeing gouges in the ground or any other signs
that anything may have hit the ground hard. The foil-rubber material could not
be tom like ordinary aluminum foil can be tom... "
Sally Strickland Tadolini (neighbor of W.W. Brazel; nine years old in 1947).
Affidavit dated September 27, 1993. " ... What Bill showed us was a piece of
what I still think as fabric. It was something like aluminum foil, something like
satin, something like well-tanned leather in its toughness, yet was not precisely
like any one of those materials....It was about the thickness of very fine kidskin
glove leather and a dull metallic grayish silver, one side slightly darker than the
other. I do not remember it having any design or embossing on it ...."
Robert R. Porter (B-29 flight Engineer stationed at Roswell in 1947). Affidavit
dated June 7, 1991. " ... On this occasion, I was a member of the crew which flew
parts of what we were told was a flying saucer to Fort Worth. The people on
board included ... and Maj Jesse Marcel. Capt. William E. Anderson said it was
from a flying saucer. After we arrived, the material was transferred to a B-25. I
was told they were going to Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio. I was involved in
loading the B-29 with the material, which was wrapped in packages with
wrapping paper. One of the pieces was triangle-shaped, about 2 1/2 feet across
the bottom. The rest were in small packages, about the size of a shoe box. The
brown paper was held with tape. The material was extremely lightweight. When
I picked it up, it was just like picking up an empty package. We loaded the
triangle shaped package and three shoe box-sized packages into the plane. All of
the packages could have fit into the trunk of a car.... When we came back from
lunch, they told us they had transferred the material to a B-25. They told us the
material was a weather balloon, but I'm certain it wasn't a weather balloon...."
In addition to those persons above still living who claim to have seen or exam-
ined the original material found on the Brazel Ranch, there is one additional
person who was universally acknowledged to have been involved in its recovery,
Sheridan Cavitt, Lt Col, USAF (Ret). Cavitt is credited in all claims of having
