Air Force Roswell Report - Anthropomorphic Dummies
by Rene Romo Tuesday June 24, 1997
In July 1994, the Office of the Secretary of the
Air Force concluded an exhaustive search for
records in response to a General Accounting Office
(GAO) inquiry of an event popularly known as the
"Roswell Incident." The focus of the GAO probe,
initiated at the request of a member of Congress,
was to determine if the U.S. Air Force, or any
other U.S. government agency, possessed information
on the alleged crash and recovery of an
extraterrestrial vehicle and its alien occupants
near Roswell, N.M. in July 1947.
The 1994 Air Force report concluded that the
predecessor to the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Army
Air Forces, recovered debris from an Army Air
Forces balloon-borne research project code named
MOGUL. Records located describing research carried
out under the MOGUL project, most of which were
never classified (and publicly available) were
collected, provided to GAO, and published in one
volume for ease of access for the general public.
This report discusses the results of this
exhaustive research and identifies the likely
sources of the claims of "alien bodies" at Roswell.
Contrary to allegations, many of the accounts
appear to be descriptions of unclassified and
widely publicized Air Force scientific
achievements. Other descriptions of "bodies" appear
to be actual incidents in which Air Force members
were killed or injured in the line of duty.
The conclusions are:
Air Force activities which occurred over a period
of many years have been consolidated and are now
represented to have occurred in two or three days
in July 1947.
"Aliens" observed in the New Mexico desert were
actually anthropomorphic test dummies that were
carried aloft by U.S. Air Force high altitude
balloons for scientific research.
The "unusual" military activities in the New Mexico
desert were high altitude research balloon launch
and recovery operations. Reports of military units
that always seemed to arrive shortly after the
crash of a flying saucer to retrieve the saucer and
"crew," were actually accurate descriptions of Air
Force personnel engaged in anthropomorphic dummy
recovery operations.
Claims of "alien bodies" at the Roswell Army Air
Field hospital were most likely a combination of
two separate incidents:
1.) a 1956 KC-97 aircraft accident in which 11
Air Force members
lost their lives; and,
2.) a 1959 manned balloon mishap in which two Air
Force pilots
were injured.
This report is based on thoroughly documented
research supported by official records, technical
reports, film footage, photographs, and interviews
with individuals who were involved in these events.
