Hello Everyone,
As most of you know, on September 8, 1994 the USAF released an explanation
for the 1947 Roswell incident. The explanation given was that of a secret
balloon project named Mogul. Well, in the latest issue of UFO magazine,
Paul Davids (Ex. Producer/Co Writer of the Showtime movie "Roswell") made
some interesting statements rebutting the Mogul explanation which will be
contained in an up coming video that will go on sale in the near future.
The most interesting rebuttal was made concerning a recent discovery. As
you may know the Mogul balloons were intended to carry instruments to
monitor the progress of the Soviet nuclear weapons development program.
It was discovered that shortly after the Roswell incident Jesse Marcel was
promoted to Lt. Col. and placed in charge of investigating the very same
Soviet nuclear weapons program. If anyone was going to know about Mogul
and it's intended use, Marcel surly would have.
So why did he come forward thirty years later to state that what Brazel
found in the field near Roswell was not a balloon but something not of
earthly origin?
Next, in the USAF report they state that what was found was the wreckage
of Mogul #4, but it was launched on June 4, 1947 and records show that
Mogul balloon tests lasted a maximum of 10 hours. So why was the debris
not found until July 2? Furthermore, the Mogul test conducted in June
utilized a conventional Neoprene balloon (same as a weather balloon), and
not the special polyethylene balloons which were not utilized until late
July and were attributed with the confusion surrounding the debris. In
addition, would a balloon, other than the Hindenburg <g> have left a debris
field 250 ft. wide and 3/4 of a mile long? Not to mention a gorge where
the sand was turned to glass.
Another curious point about the USAF report was that it's main witness is
a man by the name C. B. Moore who worked on Mogul. But interestingly,
C. B. Moore was interviewed by William Moore and Charles Berlitz for their
book "The Roswell Incident" in which he was asked if the debris could have
been that of a Mogul balloon. To which he replied, "Based on the
descriptions, I can definitely rule this out. There wasn't a balloon in
1947 or today that could account for this incident." So why the change of
opinion now?
Up until September 1994, Sheridan Cavitt had denied being with Marcel at
the debris field but now states that he was in fact there and that he knew
it was a balloon almost immediately. He states that he lied to protect his
security oath because Mogul was top secret. So why were photographs of the
balloons published on July 10, 1947? The fact is that Mogul balloons were
not secret, only their intended use was. They even carried a tag which
said "If found, please return to New York University". And why didn't
Cavitt tell Marcel that it was a balloon in the first place? Why did he
allow it to blow up into a media event when he could have ended it right
there and then?
The report also attributes the purple hieroglyphics found by Marcel on a
piece of I-beam as hearts and flowers found on the tape utilized on the
Mogul balloons. But, to date no one has been able to come up with a sample
of this alleged tape.
In addition, nowhere in the 28 pages of the USAF's conclusion was any
reference made to the bodies described by the numerous and credible
witnesses. Since Mogul balloons were obviously unmanned, even if the
bodies were as some sceptics have stated, shaved monkeys, where did they
come from? Maybe some secret program to monitor the nuclear weapons
development the of chimpanzee population? <g>
Finally, a GAO investigator states that they did not request a USAF
conclusion concerning the happenings near Roswell but instead requested
documentation. To this the USAF replies that they have none in their
possession.
Sounds like the same old, same old to me.
