Indiana Jones IV

Is Roswell the heart of the new Indiana Jones Movie? What kind of twist are they going to bring to the movie. Are they going to dive into the usual fear mongering and abduction propaganda? I’m looking forward to see the 4th movie. One of my favorite actors in my favorite movie serie.

Witness to Roswell flying saucer incident tells his story

By Pat Sherman
Copley News Service

Retired Air Force veteran Milton Sprouse clearly remembers the summer day in 1947 when he returned to Roswell Army Air Field aboard the B-29 bomber Dave’s Dream from a three-day maneuver in Florida.

Sprouse, then a corporal and engine mechanic in the Army Air Forces, could not believe what his ground crew was telling him: A UFO had crashed in the New Mexico desert, on a ranch 70 miles away.

The story made the front page of the Roswell Daily Record: “RAAF Captures Flying Saucer,” read the headline.

According to the July 8 story, “the intelligence office of the 509th Bombardment group at Roswell Army Air Field announced … that the field has come into possession of a flying saucer.”

The craft supposedly had been recovered after the ranch owner notified the sheriff’s department, who sent Maj. Jesse Marcel and a team to investigate.

“Marcel and a detail from his department went to the ranch and recovered the disk,” the story stated. “After the intelligence officer here had inspected the instrument it was flown to higher headquarters.”

The next day, the paper retracted the story, claiming that the recovered object was a weather balloon – an account the government stuck with until 1995. It was then announced that the weather balloon story had been fabricated to cover up Project Mogul, a top-secret project involving two-dozen high-altitude neoprene balloons designed to detect Russian nuclear explosions.

According to Sprouse, five of his crew were called to the site to collect the remaining debris and load it onto a flatbed truck. Sprouse was ordered to stay with Dave’s Dream in case the military should suddenly need the craft.

“I had reservations of what all they were telling me, because each one of them told something different,” he said. “I thought, ‘I don’t know.’ … Later on, when it all started coming out in piecemeal, you could put it together and tell what they said was true.”

As years passed, Sprouse grew more comfortable talking about the Roswell Incident.

Author and ufologist Thomas J. Carey interviewed Sprouse three times with co-author Donald Schmitt. Sprouse is mentioned on page 233 of their new book, “Witness to Roswell: Unmasking the 60-Year Cover-Up.”

During his first interview, videotaped at the International UFO Museum and Research Center in Roswell, Sprouse was reluctant to talk about the incident, Carey said.

“He was a career Air Force guy, and they’re the least likely to speak because of their pensions,” Carey said. “When I interviewed him over the phone in 2001, I got a little more information, and then I interviewed him again last year and got even more. It was an evolution of coming forward.”

Today, as Sprouse recounts the incident, he leans forward in earnest, a conspiratorial gleam in his eyes.

About 500 soldiers sent to the crash site were lined shoulder to shoulder and ordered to scour the property for debris, he said.

“They lined them up and then said, ‘We want you to go through this ranch the way you’re facing until we tell you to stop, and we want you to pick up everything unnatural,’” Sprouse said.

“When my crew got back (from the crash site), we talked for weeks,” he said. “They told me everything and I believe them. … They told me, ‘Milt, it’s true.’”

Among the material discovered was a malleable, foil-like material that could be laid flat with no creases after being squashed into a ball.

Whether fact or lore, one of the most intriguing pieces of the puzzle are reports of five diminutive green bodies allegedly recovered with the UFO. Sprouse believes it.

A staff sergeant in his barracks was called to the hospital shortly after the crash, he said.

“He and two doctors and two nurses were in the emergency room, and they brought in one of those five humanoid bodies that they had recovered,” he said. “They said, ‘We want this dissected and we want a complete history of how it functions and the parts and everything.’”

The next day, the man from his barracks was transferred from the base, Sprouse said.

“We never heard from him again,” he said. “We asked and (they said), ‘Oh, we don’t know nothing about it.’ … I heard later that both nurses and both doctors were shipped different directions and nobody ever knew where they went.”

Sprouse recalled an interesting conversation with the owner of a funeral home in Roswell several years later.

“We had some friend of ours that died, and he said, ‘Hey Milt, I want to talk to you,’” he said. “He says, ‘You know the base come to me and wanted five children’s caskets.’ That was two or three days after the crash. I said, ‘No kidding.’ He says, ‘I only had one, and I told them that.’ They said, ‘One won’t do us very good,’ and they went somewhere else and got them.”

The day the UFO story ran, the debris was allegedly loaded onto two B-29 bombers, one of them Dave’s Dream, and sent to a base in Fort Worth, Texas.

Sprouse and Carey believe the material was then shipped to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, where they say it remains today.

“We believe some of the stuff was loaned around, but the main repository was the foreign technology division at Wright-Patterson,” said Carey, who holds a master’s degree in anthropology and served briefly in the Air Force. “We’ve heard stories over the years of people who say that they’re still trying to figure out what that stuff is.”

Various rumors suggest that pieces of the ship and the bodies were stored in a mysterious Hangar 18 at Wright-Patterson.

Derek Kaufman, who works in Wright-Patterson’s public affairs office, was tentative when broaching the subject of Roswell and Hangar 18. He said the base tracks all such phone inquiries.

“We might get a couple of queries a month related to strange phenomena. … Someone who believes that they’ve seen something very unusual – low-flying, strange aircraft or something along those lines,” Kaufman said. “Folks who are UFO enthusiasts are typically the people that inquire about Hangar 18 or about Roswell, but a lot of them don’t seem to be credible queries. They seem to be folks bordering on the fanatic. … I’m hard-pressed to describe where Hangar 18 even is located.”

Asked if there was any material from Roswell transferred to the base in 1947, Kaufman said, “I’ll just defer to what reports have been exhaustively investigated and are now available to the general public.”

Wright-Patterson’s Web site includes a section titled “UFOs and other strange phenomena” that includes links to the Air Force Freedom of Information Act Web site and a 993-page document titled “The Roswell Report: Fact Versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert.” In the report, the government meticulously makes its case debunking the Roswell Incident.

According to the report, the bodies recovered at the site were not alien beings, but crash-test dummies used to test high-altitude parachutes.

UFO enthusiasts say they couldn’t have been dummies because the parachute tests weren’t conducted until nearly a decade later.

“That’s a non-starter because that project didn’t get under way until the mid-’50s,” Carey said. “These mannequins were a good 6 feet tall, they looked human and they were in regular flight suits. There’s no way you confuse those for little aliens with big heads.”

Asked if there are any remnants of the mysterious event stored at Roswell, Rob Young, a historian with the National Air and Space Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson, answered, “I would not know. I’ve never seen anything like that. … To my knowledge there is not.”

Sprouse believes the Roswell Incident is a far-reaching cover-up that leads as far as the White House.

“The presidents are briefed on everything … classified, unclassified, whether they’ll acknowledge it or not,” Sprouse said. “Clinton, says, ‘I don’t know nothing.’ Carter says, ‘I don’t know nothing about that.’ Bush won’t even talk about it.”

Sprouse’s wife, Peggy, a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel, is skeptical about the UFO story. She’s been to Roswell with her husband and said once was enough.

“Been there, done that,” she said. “I never did believe it and still don’t believe it.”

Sprouse seems to be enjoying his part in keeping the story alive.

Has the government ever asked him not to speak about Roswell?

“No, but I worry about it,” he said. “I’m getting all these telephone calls on that report, and I often wonder if it’s somebody looking into this.”

ESCONDIDO – Retired Air Force veteran Milton Sprouse clearly remembers the summer day in 1947 when he returned to Roswell Army Air Field aboard the B-29 bomber Dave’s Dream from a three-day maneuver in Florida.

Roswell incident not explained to Richardson’s satisfaction

ROUND ROCK, Texas — If he wins his bid for the White House, Democratic presidential candidate Bill Richardson may be just the man to get to the bottom of the 60-year-old Roswell UFO mystery.

Answering questions at a townhall meeting Friday, a Dell employee asked Richardson about the 1947 incident in which many people still believe a flying saucer landed near the eastern New Mexico town.

“I’ve been in government a long time, I’ve been in the cabinet, I’ve been in the Congress and I’ve always felt that the government doesn’t tell the truth as much as it should on a lot of issues,” said Richardson, who is governor of New Mexico.

“When I was in Congress I said (to the) Department of Defense … ‘What is the data? What is the data you have?’ “

He was told that the records were classified.

“That ticked me off,” he said, as the crowd laughed.

“What do you want me to do? You want me to open up all those files?” he asked the alien enthusiast, who answered that he did.

“I’ll work with you on that.”

Roswell has become a Mecca for conspiracy theorists in the years since a July 8, 1947, press release sent from Roswell Army Air Base disclosed the recovery of “a flying disk” at a ranch near Roswell.

The next day, higher-ranking officers said the debris came from a weather balloon that crashed; authorities displayed some bits and pieces.

More than 30 years passed, and the incident was generally forgotten. But then, an Army officer who took part in the recovery of the debris came forward to assert that it had been from an alien spacecraft, and that the government had engaged in a cover-up.

Eventually, the Air Force disclosed it had been part of Project Mogul, a top-secret effort to monitor Soviet-era nuclear testing. But that story never satisfied believers who advanced tales of alien bodies recovered in the desert.

The truth is out there: Roswell incident recalled by local vet who was there 60 years ago

By: GARY WARTH

Something happened in Roswell, New Mexico, 60 years ago this summer.

In June or early July 1947, a farmer found strange debris while working on a ranch about 70 miles north of Roswell. He put some of it in a box and drove to the local sheriff. Neither man knew what to make of it, so the sheriff called Roswell Army Air Field, which sent two men to investigate.

On July 9, 1947, the Roswell Daily Record, a newspaper, printed a story with the alarming headline: “RAAF Captures Flying Saucer On Ranch in Roswell Region.”

Other than those facts, there appear to be few things people agree on regarding what has become known as “the Roswell incident.”

Six decades later, competing UFO enthusiasts promote their own theories, skeptics dismiss the spaceship claims as outrageous, and the military, which originally claimed all the fuss was over a weather balloon, now sticks to its story that it was an experimental spy craft.

Escondido resident Milton Sprouse, 85, said he knows what happened in Roswell —- not because he favors one theory over another, but because he was there.

As for the outrageous stories of mysterious metal, alien corpses and a military coverup?

It’s all true, he said.

UFO museum gets national attention

ROSWELL, N.M., Aug. 7 (UPI) — A UFO museum in Roswell, New Mexico, has been getting some national attention in recent weeks.

After chatting with Larry King on CNN last month, Julie Shuster, executive director of the International UFO Museum and Research Center, also will be featured on “CBS News Sunday Morning” with Charles Osgood Aug. 12, the Roswell (New Mexico) Daily Record said Tuesday.

At the museum taping a segment for the show last week, CBS News science and technology correspondent Daniel Sieberg told the Record the piece is loosely tied to the 60th anniversary of Roswell’s legendary “UFO incident.”

The museum’s Web site describes the incident as “the crash of an alleged flying saucer, the recovery of debris and bodies, and the ensuing cover up by the military.”

The CBS show will take a serious look at the UFO phenomena.

“It’s an overall look at where the UFO sightings are today,” said Sieberg, formerly with CNN. “No matter where you fall in the debate of their existence, I think people are curious.”

Program producer Amiel Weisfogel said he was interested in presenting the latest status of UFOs and how the “realm of science fiction has inserted itself into the legitimate scientific debate.”

Larry King: 60th anniversary of Roswell UFO cover-up

http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=3490896249099253738

I was very impressed by the testimony made by Fife Symington. It is quite a major step forward to finally see an official leader coming forward and say the truth about what they saw. George Noory had also a very firm position which I really appreciated too.

The rest of the panel on the show were rather poor, more self promotion than seeking the truth. I did like James Fox, he seemed genuine. I guess I can’t blame them for promoting their work.

On a final Note, I think that Debunker’s career is on the verge of ending. Same old dirty tactics to bring down the credibility of the presented arguments, evidence and witnesses. He even relied on those stupid puppets. How low can you go, to keep your little world stable. To that M. Shermer I would say: “Get a life”.

Roswell 1947 UFO Crash Finally Resolved

June 12, 2007

Finally the Truth is Told About the Roswell Incident!
After 60 years, the speculation is over!
The last living survivor of the 1947 incident tells his, and his father’s story.
The Roswell Legacy by Jesse Marcel, Jr.

——————————————————————————–

To be Released Worldwide July 4, 2007
At the 60th Anniversary Roswell Festival in
Roswell, NM, July 5-8

[June 12, 2007, Helena, MT]…In 1986, on his death bed, retired Major Jesse Marcel told his son; “You must tell the world the truth about Roswell. When the military no longer has a hold over you and your family, please set the record straight!”

Major Jesse Marcel was the head of intelligence at an Army Air Field located at Roswell, New Mexico. On July 7, 1947 Major Marcel was sent to inspect what was being reported as the crash of an unidentified object on a ranch seventy-five miles northwest of the base. After inspecting the crash site, Marcel stopped by his home to show his family what he had discovered. Jesse Jr. was only eleven years old at the time, but vividly remembers his father’s excitement, and seeing and handling a foil-like material that his father said was scattered around the wreckage. It was shiny and paper thin, but could not be torn or cut. It also retained a memory, mysteriously unfolding each time his father tried to fold it. And then there was that beam of metal several feet long, which was covered with hieroglyphic-type writing and markings. It was indeed something that was not of this world.

Upon return to his Air base, Major Marcel’s superior officer, Col. William “Butch” Blanchard, ordered him to fly the material to Wright Patterson Air Base in Dayton, OH, first stopping in Fort Worth, TX to show the strange findings to Gen. Roger Ramey,,the head of the Eighth Air Force. When Ramey learned that Blanchard had issued a press release stating they had recovered a “flying disc,” and that it was being flown to Wright-Pat, Ramey was livid, and immediately called a press conference. Marcel would be photographed (see photo right) holding remnants of a weather balloon, and was forced to tell the media that these were his only findings at Roswell. From that time on, and despite dozens of collaborating witnesses at the crash site, Major Marcel was forced to live with that lie the rest of his life.

His father’s words haunted Jesse Jr. for nearly twenty years. As his retirement finally approached, while serving his tour of duty in Iraq in 2004, Jesse Jr. decided to put pen to paper. In a few short months the U.S. Military could no longer force he and his family to keep the secret any longer. He remembered how embarrassed his father was when he was forced to tell the world that the object he inspected was only a weather balloon. The famous photo of his father (see right), kneeling and holding the remnants of a weather balloon have been an injustice the Marcel family had endured for nearly sixty years.

Now with release of The Roswell Legacy, Jesse Sr. ill finally be vindicated and the world will learn the truth. With a forward written by the renowned Ufologist, Stanton Friedman, this book clears the air

“The world has waited a long time for the inside scoop on Roswell. Truth is an excellent curative for false proclamations. The Roswell crashed saucer retrieval is one of the most important UFO cases ever, anywhere. We need more information from those directly involved, and this book provides a good deal of important new material.” –Stanton T. Friedman
