[attachmentid=9157][attachmentid=9158][FONT=Times] Report exclusively to Unexplained Mysteries.com from Robert Walker O'Neal, MS-M:
Our website at www.onealclan.com receive one or two e-mails each month asking if we have information about the alleged UFO incident at Roswell, NM, in 1947. We were doubtful, having read numerous official accounts that the incident resulted from a simple weather balloon - or a spy balloon test, depending on which governmental explanation account one chooses to believe. Yet we discovered a Bible code matrix (BC2000 developed by Dr. Eli Ripps, world renowned mathematician at Hebrew University, Jerusalem) concerning the event. The matrix could be interpreted many ways but we were intrigued.
In November 2004, my editor, photographer and I visited the City of Roswell and interviewed many professionals, business owners, and other residents. We researched material and documents related to the incident as provided us by the local international museum. A brief summary of our efforts is presented herein.
What really happened June 7, 1947 near Roswell. The UFO crash, or the weather balloon failure dependent upon one's belief, was not the beginning of the incident. A time line of what occurred before June 7, 1947, is presented at the end of this article.
On June 4, 1947, near Roswell, N.M., rancher W.W. "Mac" Brazel was awakened at his home by a loud rushing sound from the skies. He ran to his porch as a loud explosion erupted a few miles away on his ranch. Because of the ongoing thunderstorm, he decided to wait until morning to check it out.
The next day, Mr. Brazel found metal-like pieces of a craft scattered as far as he could see. At first he thought an airplane had crashed but when he picked up bits and slices of the material, the pieces were unlike any airplane he could imagine.
He could bend some of the material and crumble it in his hands, but it always snapped back into its original shape. Some portions were I-beams that he couldn't bend. Although the bendable material was lightweight, he couldn't burn it with a match.
He drove his pickup 20 miles away to his nearest neighbors and asked the fellow rancher and his wife to come and inspect the unusual finding. When Mr. Brazel showed the debris he had loaded into his truck, the neighboring rancher attempted to light it with matches, as had Brazel, with the same results. Although the flame left no burn marks, the items wouldn't ignite.
They declined driving back to his ranch but suggested that Mac Brazel phone Chaves County Sheriff George Wilcox and report the crash. Brazel returned home and phoned the sheriff who in turn phoned the local Roswell Army Air Field, just outside Roswell. The base commander dispatched intelligence officer Maj. Jesse Marcel to investigate.
The officer agreed with Mr. Brazel that this was no aircraft crash, that he had never seen anything like it. He and Brazel loaded the officer's vehicle with as much of the scrap and I-beams as possible. The USAAF officer drove his car home that night and he and his wife and son laid out several of these items on the kitchen table and looked them over. His son was the first to notice the hieroglyphic-like markings on the I-beams.
Major Marcel's son is now a medical doctor in Roswell. He and his sister tell anyone who asks that the I-beams were engraved with writing unlike any language on earth. They could bend most of the material but the foldable portions consistently snapped back to original form. It wouldn't burn.
The next day, the officer delivered his findings to the base, where the base commander and other officers decided this was other-worldly, the first crashed unidentified flying object from another world. The commander ordered his press officer to release a notice to the media to that effect, then phoned the Pentagon.
(Thanks to Roswell's UFO Museum and Research Center, the Webmaster now owns a framed copy of the front page of the following day's Roswell Daily Record, carrying the story of the century.)
Within 24 hours, Pentagon officers and intelligence officials from other government sites were all over Roswell USAAF base. Some 50 large Army trucks and 200 soldiers were immediately ordered to Brazel's ranch to find all material related to this event. The soldiers were ordered to silence under the veil of national security.
While this was taking place, a county agent a few miles away noticed something unusual off the road. He found what he described as a walnut shaped craft, crashed but generally in good condition, with two small bodies in loose-fitting uniforms laying dead alongside the craft. Ten University of New Mexico archaeology students and their instructor came upon this second crash site as the agent was looking it over.
At the same time, a USAAF reconnaissance plane spotted the debris and onlookers below. Within minutes an Army colonel and captain drove up in an Army Jeep. The colonel told his captain to call the people over and tell them to get out. The captain motioned the 12 people to the Jeep and told the witnesses that they were immediately expected to sign secrecy agreements for purposes of national security and then would be escorted away. They were told to "forget" what they saw.
The county agent told his closest friend but told no one else until the day he was dying, at which time he admitted all he had seen that day.
The U.S. Air Force ultimately claimed that the bodies the agent and students had observed were chimps used for early space travel tests in test helium balloons, but it was soon learned that the chimps weren't used for that purpose until the 1950's. In a later report, the USAF claimed the bodies were actually crash dummies used in balloon test flights, but reporters soon learned that crash dummies were not manufactured until the 1950's. The Air Force and other agencies have offered no further explanations.
The Army Air Force flew all materials from the trucks to Albuquerque and from there to Los Alamos Laboratories. The destination from that point is unknown to the public.
Hundreds of people, many still living in and around Roswell, saw many corroborating events and have told these stories many times (see "time line" below.) Because so many residents know so many people who have seen the materials, the bodies and unusual military activities of those days, few doubt that some agency within the U.S. government is in possession of alien technology from beyond earth.
We talked with a retired professional woman who has lived here all her life. She remembers the event well. Her father was an Army Air Force officer at the base in 1947 and informed us that her father told her everything he had seen, including the craft itself. He was not one of the people who observed the recovered bodies of the crew but had talked with others who had. The bodies, along with the remains of the two crashed UFO's, were transported to Los Alamos in children's' caskets obtained from the local undertaker who still lives here.
Roswell, New Mexico, is a thriving city of 50,000, not the small farm town depicted in countless TV documentaries. (Our friends at the History Channel are an exception; their coverage of the City and the 1947 incident have been the most accurate and complete of any such reports we have viewed.) The TV photos commonly presented were made in the 1940's and continue to be used to this day in order for the documentary producers to preserve a preconceived image of the town; but locals tell us that even then the town was larger than often presented on TV. The image of a small cowboy community somehow better fits news and documentary producers' stories.
People around the world recognize the town as being near the alleged UFO crash June 1947. The city's business leaders recognize the advantages of the fame. The image of aliens can be found everywhere. Even the local Wal-Mart Superstore has images across its front windows of aliens and inside offers a special department selling alien and UFO gifts.
Even the Coca Cola company offers vending machines designed uniquely to Roswell. The town's street lamps that line Downtown Roswell are designed to appear to be the classic alien heads.
The former Roswell Army Air Field was turned over to the City of Roswell and is now the city's airport.
Rancher Brazel has passed away and left the property to his two sons. Until recently tours were available for tourists to the crash site, but his surviving sons no longer allow the public on the land.
Yet, Governor Bill Richardson, the archaeology department of the University of New Mexico, the UFO International Museum of Roswell and the Science Fiction Channel believe some artifacts that the Army had failed to find in 1947 may remain on the property. University of New Mexico archaeologists are now involved in a serious dig at this site, hoping to find artifacts of an alien race.
Long-time residents are convinced the U.S. government covered up the truth as Roswell. A waitress, Laura Noe, at a Denny's Restaurant next door to the City's UFO museum told the Webmaster and his aide de camp that few people doubt that the craft was a UFO. They consider the 1947 story released by the U.S. Army Air Force as it having been a weather balloon to be ridiculous.
A retired real estate woman told the Webmaster that newer residents of the community, in contrast to those who remember the incident, are divided about fifty-fifty in accepting this. She remembers the incident well and knew many people who worked at the air field. Many told her that they had seen the craft. Three USAAF transports were loaded with massive amounts of crash material and flown to Albuquerque and from there to Los Alamos laboratories.
A business owner told the Webmaster that everyone knew what weather balloons looked like at the time. Residents saw them going up every day from the base. No balloon could have been so large that its pieces would require a long line of Army trucks to retrieve nor could a balloon be so large that three large military transports would be required to carry its remains to Los Alamos
The son of the USAAF officer, an intelligence officer and an aircraft crash expert who brought the parts back to the base, is now a medical doctor in Roswell. Dr. Marcel says that he and his family personally inspected and handled the material the night before his father carried sample artifacts back to Walker Air Field. I-beam parts had hieroglyphic markings similar to Egyptian markings - but yet different from any language on earth.
There was no reason to engrave such markings on a balloon. A weather balloon doesn't need I-beams for its structure. Another elder resident who then worked as a civilian employee at Walker told us that the Army had no need to use spy balloons in the USSR as claimed because spy planes were available to do the job much better.
In a lengthy document released by the Air Force as a final report, officials declared that the claim of alien bodies being found were a result of crash dummies the USAAF used at the time. Almost immediately, news reporters learned that such dummies didn't exist until the 1950's.
In contrast to other government denials, FBI spokespersons have admitted that the object they examined from the Roswell site was definitely "not a weather balloon."
We went over extensive documents and testimonials from countless former military and civilian employees and residents from that time at Roswell's UFO Museum and Research Center. This organization is a serious, objective resource center, its curators careful not to allow junk science and unsubstantiated or undocumented claims to cloud its work.
My editor and I came away with a clear impression that the federal government was, and remains, involved in a cover-up of the Roswell incident. We don't know precisely what happened that night near Roswell. But whatever was found wasn't the remains of a balloon. Something crashed - or was shot down - in Roswell, New Mexico in July 1947. A few days later government security was set up tight around the farm on which the crash occurred, something was taken away in trucks. Witnesses saw the crash. Through the past decades since, many credible witnesses have come forward to claim to have seen the wreckage and alien bodies.
