Lt. Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg, Deputy Commander, U.S. Army Air Forces, 1947. General Vandenberg served as Chief of Staff, United States Air Force 1947-1953. He is alleged to have directed the recovery of a flying saucer at Roswell Army Air Field on July 8, 1947. A review of his official daily activities calendar revealed his knowledge of a reported flying saucer recovery on July 7 in Texas, an incident that he later determined to be a hoax. Records do not support the claim that he had any similar involvement on July 8, as charged by crashed saucer conspiracy theorists (see Atch 15). U.S. Air Force Photo.
