I’m not much of a tin foil hat wearing sort of person, but I don’t believe that we are alone in this great big universe either. There was an interesting article regarding the Roswell incident from an Australian news website talking about the release of a sworn affidavit from the military’s PR guy at the time. During his entire life in as many interviews he participated in he always played down & refuted the “aliens” version of the story & kept up with the weather balloon account. He asked that the letter only be released after his death. In it he recants his testimony that the events were all misinterpreted & states that he did indeed see not only an aircraft of unknown origin, but he also saw what he believed to be bodies of extraterrestrials. I’m sure that this letter will not end the debate or the mysteries, but it’s pretty interesting when something like this makes the papers:
Lieutenant Walter Haut was the public relations officer at the base in 1947 and was the man who issued the original and subsequent press releases after the crash on the orders of the base commander, Colonel William Blanchard.
Haut died last year but left a sworn affidavit to be opened only after his death.
Last week, the text was released and asserts that the weather balloon claim was a cover story and that the real object had been recovered by the military and stored in a hangar.
He described seeing not just the craft, but alien bodies.
So who’s to say what really happened, but I for one never really thought the weather balloon was a really good cover up story anyway. As long as a satellite dish doesn’t pop out of my ass, I’m more than happy to have my planet be a tourist destination.
