- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------QUESTIONS & ANSWERS ABOUT THE TOP SECRET-EYES ONLY UFO BRIEFI
- NG DOCUMENTS:1. Is there any other evidence that the U.S. government retrieved a crashed alien craft outside Roswell, New Mexico in July, 19
- 47? Moore and Friedman have since 1978 conducted a very, very extensive research project concerning the so-called Roswell Incident. To da
- te, 92 different people have been located and interviewed about the event, 31 of whom had first-hand involvement. Included are several gener
- als, the base security officer, counter-intelligence corps personnel, the neighbors and family of the rancher who discovered the wrecked dev
- ice, the public relations officer of the air base, local news media personnel, etc. etc. To date, one book and five research papers have bee
- n published presenting the data.2. Is there any proof that the event was first publicized and then covered up by the government? Yes. A p
- ress release was first distributed by the Army Air Force at Roswellstating that a crashed disc had been recovered. Then shortly afterwards t
- he head of the 8th Air Force announced that a mistake had been made and that it was only a radar reflector from a weather balloon. The offic
- er who took the call from Washington, DC with the instructions to cover-up the story has so testified to Friedman and Moore. Many people who
- handled the very strange materials have testified that the material could not have been from a radar reflector. Ten first-hand witnesses ar
- e on record as having stated that the object was, in fact, some sort of space craft.3. Was there any evidence of strange writing on the retr
- ieved material? Yes. five persons who actually handled pieces of the wreckage have described very unusual symbols on pieces of the wrecka
- ge.4. Is there any evidence that President-elect Eisenhower received a military briefing on 18 November, 1952? Yes. Information at the Ei
- senhower Library and in the Truman files indicates White House and Pentagon briefings on that date. A Washington _Post_ article also confirm
- s a briefing on that date.5. Is there any evidence that Bush and Forrestal met with Truman on Sept. 24th,1947? Yes. Forrestal's diary, Bu
- sh's files and the Truman Library listing of Presidential activities all establish that Bush and Forrestal first met with each other and the
- n with Truman on that date. Bush and Forrestal often met witheach other during the 1947-1949 time frame.6. Is there any evidence that the Cu
- tler to Twining "Top Secret-Eyes Only" memois genuine? Yes. There are several factors to be considered here: A. It was found in a fil
- e box at the National Archives by Moore and Shandera who were the first persons to go through the newly declassified materials. B. The a
- rchivist Joanna Williamson who was in charge of the RG 341 file isquoted in the London _Observer_ as saying "It was found in the files of th
- e U.S. Air Force's Director of Intelligence and is certainly genuine." C. A very similar in format and content "Top Secret-Eyes Only" me
- mo was sent by Cutler to Twining in 1953 about a similar NSC meeting on another, unrelated, project.7. Why is there no signature on the memo
- ? The file copy was a carbon. Carbons are not normally signed.8. Is there any reason at all to think that Harvard Astronomer Dr. Donald M
- enzel, who wrote three anti-UFO books and many articles, could really have been part of a Top Secret-Eyes Only group that knew some UFOs wer
- e "Identified Alien Craft"? As a result of extended research by Friedman at Harvard and elsewhere, these facts have been established abou
- t Menzel: A. Menzel once mentioned in a letter written to President-elect Jack Kennedy that he possessed a Top Secret-Ultra security cle
- arance. B. Menzel claimed to JFK in 1960 that he had a longer continuous association with the highly classified National Security Agency
- (NSA) and its predecessor U.S. Navy agency than anyone else in the government at that time. C. Menzel's association with Dr. Vannevar B
- ush, wartime head of the Officeof Scientific Research and Development, dates back to 1934. D. Bush was the staunchest Menzel defender at
- a USAF loyalty hearing in 1950. Indeed, Bush had instructed Menzel's attorney to notify him (Bush) immediately upon resolution of the loyal
- ty problem. E. Menzel worked on classified programs for more than 30 different companies. F. Menzel is on record as having made nume
- rous trips during 1947 to both Washington, DC and New Mexico on government research activities. G. Menzel had learned Japanese for his c
- ryptography work for the Navy, wasfamiliar with disinformation, and would have been the perfect person to show the Roswell writing to. H
- . Menzel had written science fiction and popular newspaper articles for major papers. He was the best qualified of the 12 to put out disinfo
- rmation andhis first book was translated into Russian.9. The documents indicate that a second object crashed in Texas on the night ofDecembe
- r 6th-7th , 1950. Is there any indication that such an event ever occurred? Yes. A copy of an official communique was located in files re
- leased by the FBI indicating a "high alert" status about UFOs had been called by the Air Force on December 8th, 1950. There are also several
- newspaper articles indicating that military leaves at various airbases were abruptly cancelled that same day.10. What about other official
- documentary evidence? A formerly Top Secret Canadian memo dated November, 1950, states that "thematter (of UFOs) is the most highly class
- ified subject in the United States Government" and identified Dr. Vannevar Bush as head of a project which was trying to discover how UFOs w
- ork.11. Isn't it true that Admiral Hillenkoetter was actually serving in the Pacific at the time of the supposed Eisenhower briefing? No.
- The facts are that he had been assigned to Pacific duty in November, 1950, but he returned as commander of the Brookly, NY, Naval Base in S
- eptember,1951. In June, 1952, he was named Commandant of the US Navy Third District and was based in New York City.12. Doesn't it seem stran
- ge that General Eisenhower had to be briefed in 1952 on matters about which he surely would have been informed as Army Chief of Staff years
- earlier? Not at all. The facts are that he accepted the job as President of ColumbiaUniversity in June, 1947 -- _before_ the Roswell Inci
- dent and the establishmentof Majestic 12. He served until May, 1950, when he began a very difficult job in Europe as Supreme Commander of th
- e NATO forces trying to unify a number of different military and political factions. He remained there until 1952 when hereturned to campaig
- n for the presidency. In other words, he had no "need-to-know" during the period July, 1947 through November, 1952. His forte was neither in
- telligence nor technology.
