Subject: Response to Government Explanation of UFO Crash
Title: 50 YEARS OF LIES: THE AIR FORCE AND UFOs!

From USA TODAY (9/9/94):
THIS TIME UFO MYSTERY NUMBER ONE IS REALLY SOLVED. THE AIR
FORCE, AFTER 47 YEARS OF SILENCE, FINALLY ADUITTED THURSDAY
IT WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FAMOUS FLYING SAUCER OF ROSWELL,
NM. BEHIND THE MYSTERY: WRECKAGE FOUND IN A RANCHER'S FIELD
IN 1947. THE AIR FORCE SAYS IT LIED WHEN IT ORIGINALLY
EXPLAINED THE WRECKAGE AWAY AS A "WEATHER" BALLON. THE 1994
VERSION: THE BALLOON WAS PART OF "PROJECT MOGUL," A SECRET
EFFORT TO USE LONG-RANGE BALLOONS TO MONITOR SOVIET NUCLEAR
TESTS. THE 23-PAGE REPORT DENIES THE MILITARY COVERED UP THE
RECOVERY OF A CRASH (sic) SPACESHIP AND FOUR DEAD ALIENS.

THE AIR FORCE SAYS IT LIED. But, how many times? In July of
1947 Roswell Army Air Force Base Information Officer WALTER
HAUT put out a Press Release titled: ROSWELL ARMY AIR FORCE
CAPTURES FLYING SAUCER IN ROSWELL REGION.

The Roswell Base was the home of 9 Atomic Bombs according to
Air Force records. The Base was filled with TECHNICIANS,
SCIENTISTS and ENGINEERS. It was they, according to former
Information Officer WALTER HAUT, that said the object
recovered was a FLYING DISC.

The chief Air Force Investigator of the case, the late MAJOR
JESSE MARCEL, said before his death that the object was "not
a weather balloon or secret project..." Marcel was the Base
Intelligence Officer, highly briefed and familiar with any
and all secret projects on-going in the region. He was also
a Physicist in civilian life. Marcel indicated that bodies
of small, non-human creatures were recovered from the crash.

Former Chaves County Coroner and Mortician GLENN DENNIS
backed up the stories of the bodies. He said that the Air
Force called him to purchase all the child-size coffins he
had on hand and requested information about embalming
procedures for bodies that had been exposed to the open
desert. Dennis also states that a nurse working at the base
hospital confided in him that the non-human bodies were
autopsied at the Base Hospital.

Both DENNIS and HAUT still live in Roswell. I have
interviewed them on many of my trips to the area over the
past 20 years. I have also spoken to other witnesses who
were at the UFO crash site. These interviews are part of a
video cassette release called ROSWELL: WHAT REALLY HAPPENED?,
a 120 minute prcsentation which includes video interviews
with over 20 witnesses. The tape costs $30 (including
shipping anywhere. and is available at my lectures or by
mall from: BILL KNELL 164-22 77RD, FLUSHING, NY 11365.

CONTRADICTORY STATEMENTS

Last year Dayton TV Reporter CARL DAY produced a 30 minute
special called ALIEN ENCOUNTERS: THE WRIGHT-PATTERSON
CONNECTION. He interviewed the Information Officer for
Wright-Pattcrson A.F.B. in Fairborn-Dayton, Ohio because the
original Roswell Base press release said the WRECKAGE was
brought to Wright-Patterson for further study.

The Information Officer stated that "NO RECORDS EXIST ABOUT
THE ROSWELL MATERIAL..." He said he had carefully studied
the matter and made high-level inquiries.

I travel to the Dayton area (or through it) 5 or more times
yearly. I am regularly a guest on top-rated talk and music
stations (just today on WLW in Cincinnati, heard in Dayton
and six states clearly during the day). I have stated, many
times, that I believe Alien Spacecraft have been kept at
Wright-Patterson as early as 1947 and as late as 1989. Many
Callers to the radio shows agreed. NOT ONE CALLER HAS EVER
SAID I AM LYING OR THAT THE STORY ISN'T TRUE (there are over
8000 employees at Wright-Patterson, surely one would call
and say I was full of hot air!).

THE AIR FORCE REGULARLY LIES ABOUT UFO CASES

The NEW A.F. Statement about Roswell is a result of an
inquiry by Congressman STEVE SHIFF from New Mexico who was
concerned the Air Force was lying. But, it's just a re-hash
of older statements. When MAJOR MARCEL first told his story
about Roswell saying the A.F. had lied (he was interviewed
and filmed as early as 1978), the Air Force said what
crashed on the ranch was 'radar reflecting material
connected to a weather balloon..." that was part of a top
secret radar test. MARCEL knew about the tests and said that
twice before material had, indeed, crashed in the same
area. But, the radar-reflecting material was totally
different from the suspicious wreckage that caused the
famous FLYING SAUCER press release.

In 1965 a strange object crashed near Kecksburg,
Pennsylvania. Although described as what we might think of
as a UFO, the Air Force said first it was a meteorite. Then
news leaked that NOMAD had tracked the object which changed
course completely over Ohio and headed towards
Kecksburg. Meteorites normally do not do this. Then, they
said it was space junk. According to SKY AND TELESCOPE
magazine, no known or secret spy satellites came down at
that time. The Air Force took over the small town,
threatened local residents and officials and carted away
whatever crashed.

In 1989, according to former South African Air Force Colonel
JAMES VAN GRUNEN and documents he has made available to me,
an Extra-Terrestrial Spacecraft was brought to Wrlght-
Patterson from South Africa.

In May of 1989 NORAD tracked several objects of unknown
origin heading toward Africa. South African Air Force
Command was alerted and a Mirage Fighter was sent up to
intercept the Objects. One of these crafts was shot
down. The S.A.A.F. later recovered a disc-shaped object with
strange markings on it, three non-human creatures (1 dead, 1
severely injured and 1 in perfect shape) and removed this
material to Praetoria A.F.B.

Unable to cope with the creatures or material, these were
later traded to the U.S. Government for two nucluar devices
(unspecified) and brought, through a third nation, to Wright-
Patterson AFB. Sources there have said the story is true. I
have transcribed interviews with Van Grunen and others
involved including the SAAF Pilot who shot the object dnwn.

The Air Forces of the U.S. and S.A. have had NO COMMENT on
this case except to say that "No objects of unknown origin
were tracked by NORAD at that time..." But, NORAD says they
tracked over 10.000 objects of unknown origin during 1989
and many during that time.

The latest statement by the Air Force is just another
government attempt to elude the Public into believing that
no CREDIBLE case or evidence exists to support the belief
that UFOs are of Extra-Terrestrial origin or something other
then explainable objects. As in previous cases, this
statement is self-serving, misleading and
contradictory. Last year an Air Force Colonel was
interviewed for a tabloid TV show about AREA 51 (a secret
installation in the Nevada desert where former employees
claim real, captured UFOs are tested and back-
engineered). The Colonel said that what people were seeing
and videotaping out there was a new, secret plane called the
Aurora. But, on 2/8/94 CIA Director JAMES WOOLSEY sald that
there is no Aurora and, in fact, no current replacement for
the aging SR71. SR71's were seen being used in Saudia Arabia
during the Gulf War. The Air Force says all SR71s were
retired by 1989!
