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.

An indication that Dennis might have mistaken the date of actual events was that he was quoted in at least one book as having said that the officer who threatened him in the hospital was a big redheaded colonei.74 Research revealed that only one tall colonel with red hair was known to have been assigned to the Walker AFB hospital.

In at least two interviews Dennis repeatedly made reference to a nurse named "Captain Wilson."77 He recalled that "Captain Wilson", who he believed was the head nurse, was another nurse stationed at the Roswell AAF hospital in July 1947.78 Dennis claims he spoke to "Captain Wilson" several times in reference to the alleged missing nurse. 79 He claims that on the day after he met with the missing nurse at the Roswell AAF Officers' Club, he attempted to contact her by telephone at the hospital but was told that she wasn't on duty. 80 Instead, he spoke with "Captain Wilson." "I called the station I knew she [the missing nurse] always worked at," Dennis said, "She was a general nurse ... I was informed that she wasn't working that day. [Dennis then telephoned] An old girl by the name of Wilson, Captain Wilson, and I asked her 'what happened'? She said, 'Glenn, I don't know what happened, she's not on duty.' She said she'd try to get word to her [the missing nurse] that you [Dennis] want to talk to her."81 Later in the same interview Dennis further described Wilson. "We called her 'Slatts' Wilson who was a big tall nurse about six foot two or three-big tall skinny gal-and we called her 'Slatts'-everybody called her 'Slatts.' She's 87
