The Roswell Report: Case Closed is a 1997 US Air Force report written by Captain James McAndrew, with a foreword by Secretary of the Air Force Sheila E. Widnall. It follows up the 1994 report, which found that the 1947 debris came from the balloon project MoGUL. It concludes that the reported alien bodies were probably anthropomorphic test dummies dropped from high altitude balloons. It attributes the hospital body claims to a 1956 KC-97 crash and a 1959 manned balloon mishap.

Fig. 35. Rough treatment and parachute failures during balloon drops often caused damage to the hands of the dummies. This detail, "beings" with "four fingers," was related by two witnesses as a distinguishing feature of the Roswell aliens. (U.S. Air Force photo) Despite these efforts, the dummies were not always recovered immediately; one was not found for nearly three years and several were not recovered at all. 62 When they were found, the dummies and instrumentation were often damaged from impact. 63 Damage to the dummies included loss of heads, arms, legs and fingers. 64 This detail, dummies with missing fingers, appears to satisfy another element of the research profile-aliens with only four fingers. 33
