Roswell Army Air Base - Roswell, New Mexico - July 2, 1947
During a violent thunderstorm, a great explosion was heard by a rancher named Mac Brazel.
The following day he found thousands of fragments of strange and fantastic materials
scattered for miles all over his ranch. There were sheets and strips of material similar
in appearance to a gum wrapper, shiny, metallic, like tin foil. This material was so strong it
could not be bent or burned or deformed even when struck with a slege hammer. This material was
extremely lightweight and thin. Thinking that it might be from a military test aircraft crash,
Mac Brazel took a few pieces to the local Sheriff.
The Sheriff called the military base, and two intelligence agents arrived to
conduct an investigation of the crash site. One of the investigators, Major Jesse A. Marcel,
took samples of the strange metal back to the military base. His superiors immediately
quarantined the crash site and forbid anyone but authorized people to have access to it.
Armed guards were stationed around the perimeter of the crash site to keep newspapermen and
unauthorized visitors out. All fragments were gathered; a large group of men crawled shoulder
to shoulder through the area picking up even the tiniest fragment of the spaceship.
Crash debris was taken to warehouse 84 (a high security warehouse) at Roswell Army Air Base.
No unauthorized people were allowed to enter the warehouse. Major Marcel was ordered to take
samples of the strange material to Fort Worth, Texas. From there the samples were taken to the
Intelligence Center at Wright - Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, USA.

Mac Brazel told people about the crash and word was spreading. People were beginning to
visit the site and look around. Army First Lieutenant and Public Information Officer
Walter Haut held a news conference where he revealed that an alien UFO crashed near
Roswell Army Air Base and that the alien ship was moved to Fort Worth, Texas, USA.
Press officials were allowed to visit the Fort Worth military installation and photograph
fragments of materials recovered from the crash site. But the next day the military changed
it's position and invented a cover story about a weather baloon that crashed during the thunderstorm.
Major Marcel says that the military replaced extraterrestrial crash debris with parts of
a fallen weather baloon, then denied the entire UFO crash incident.
Major Marcel indicates that he was told not to reveal any information to anybody about
the Roswell UFO crash. The incident was classified TOP SECRET.
There were other witnesses. Many Air Force and Army personnel handled the
wreckage. Civil Engineer Grady L. Barnett was working the area, looking for debris.
A team of amateur archaeologists also worked the area looking for UFO crash fragments.
Their discovery was shocking. They found a space ship, ripped apart. Four aliens were discovered,
one injured, one dying, and 2 dead. They all had large heads, skin similar to that of a dolphin,
and were about 5 feet tall.
The Aliens were flown to Roswell Air Base Hospital. then to the Intelligence Center at
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, USA. A stop may have been made at Fort Worth.
Witnesses were ordered not to talk about the Aliens.
For 30 years no one spoke about the incident out of fear of reprisal. Some witnesses say they
were threatened with violence if they ever told anyone what they witnessed. Jesse Marcel
discovered he had terminal cancer and decided to make a statemnt before he died. He died in 1986,
and since that time more than 350 people have come forward to reveal their knowlege of the
extraterrestrials, including Brigadier General Arthur E. Exon. He was a Lieutenant Colonel at
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base at the time of the arrival of UFO crash material and arrival of the
Aliens. He says he believes that the bodies of the Aliens are still at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
