The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert was published in 1995 by Headquarters United States Air Force. It was written in response to Representative Steven H. Schiff's request and a General Accounting Office audit, and it contains Col. Richard L. Weaver's report and 1st Lt. James McAndrew's synopsis, along with attachments, appendices and photographs. The report says researchers found no evidence of an extraterrestrial craft or crew. It concludes that the 1947 debris came from a Project MOGUL balloon train.

Presently living in Southern California is one of the
physicians who participated in this project. I must respect his
confidentially and anonymity. He is in his mid to late 70's and is
probably the last link (firsthand) to have experienced this
research on the alien bodies in 1947.
In regards to any release of this subject matter, existence of
this material/past research would not be exempt from mandator7
disclosures under the FOIA because it would not/does not interfere
with our national security nor knowledge of the above would give
any other foreign country a military advantage.
Serious UFO researchers believe that the Air Force now wishes
the American public, to know the truth. of the extra-terrestrial
origin of the UFO phenomena. and thus are "leaking" some
information out to various researchers.
Nationwide polls revealed that over 70% of our population
believes in the extra-terrestrial theory; movies such as "E.T.",
"Close Encounter of the Third Kind", "Hanger 18" and "Cocoon" are
being released to cushion the public to the truth. Could the
government/private corporation use subliminal suggestions in the
above movies or possibly TV - To prepare this country eventually
to the truth that UFO's and aliens exist.
Being in this field of research - specifically physiological
and psychological effects suffered secondary to individuals who
were allegedly abducted by aliens has increased my knowledge that
we are definitely being visited by an alien race. I have enclosed
for your review a brief synopsis of what occurred in and around
Roswell, New Mexico in July 1947. Please review this information.
Why have I decided to write at this time This is the 45th
year anniversary of UFO' s - many 1 ectures and seminars wi 11 be
scheduled around the country to herald this event. Because of
this, it is hopeful that through the FOIA someone sympathetic to
our research efforts will release some "shocking" information for
us tc relay to the general public. It seems coincidental/ironic
that the most prominent seminar was the MOFON 1992 International
UFO Symposium on July ll-12, 1992 at the Convention Center in
Albuqu~rque, New Mexico.
