This week the FBI launched an online document archive that they’re calling The Vault. The site is an electronic reading room that has over 2,000 documents scanned that cover many different subjects. Unfortunately, it seems as if they didn’t censor the UFO documents well enough as within those is a memo written by the Special Agent in Charge of the Washington Field Office to the FBI Director on March 22, 1950 that confirms the Roswell UFO incident in 1947:
An investigator for the Air Force stated that three so-called flying saucers had been recovered in New Mexico. They were described as being circular in shape with raised centers, approximately 50 feet in diameter. Each one was occupied by three bodies of human shape but only three feet tall, dressed in metallic cloth of a very fine texture. Each body was bandaged in a manner similar to the blackout suits used by speed flyers and test pilots.
According to Mr. (redacted) informant, the saucers were found in New Mexico due to the fact that the Government has a very high-powered radar set-up in that area and it is believed the radar interferes with the controlling mechanism of the saucers. No further evaluation was attempted by SA (redacted) concerning the above.
Here is the scan of the actual memo:

Awww I got all excited for almost nothing. All this does is confirm that somebody claimed to have found saucers. This does not confirm the saucers themselves, although it does lend some weight to the theory.

This is not news. Obviously your are a N00B at this research. The original claim of the Air Force & FBI was always this memo, and then it got reclaimed as an experimental weather balloon because allegedly there was a failure of communication. This is not an error in censorship – read “Project Blue Book”

Weather balloons don’t generally contain the bodies of 3ft tall people though.

This shit it real. My grandfather reviewed the metal recovered after it was transferred to WPAFB. He was a metals expert for the USAF, and explained to me that the metal recovered was strong as anything he had seen with unknown symbols, but lighter than any known material at that time. It was not human according to him.

Im not saying it is real. But, you can’t be so myopic. Look just because we discovered something doesn’t mean they did. Hell say they did. Say they used them for navigation too. Or something similar. They could have picked up ours and it could have affected their guiding system, their “gravity calculator” I mean anything. They might not have ever found another body of life before us. And never expected radar interference. Maybe it was just a fault in their equipment the g forces they supposedly could pull can easily cause an issue. I personally don’t believe that one crashed on earth. But, if it happened there are many reasons. If it is real id like to learn about the autopsy. How many similar features and how many different. Everything from the DNA to what type of skin they have.

The metal wasn’t human? He MUST be a metals expert to point that out.

So, let me see if I follow this…
Aliens travel from a distant star, endure the rigors of space, BUT their ships are vulnerable to radar?! Um, no.

Umm we build space shuttles with our currently technology that have traveled in space frequently and have also blown up twice. Why is it so difficult to think a machine no matter where its from could fail? Answer: It isn’t. I’m pretty sure even a very advanced civilization has to deal with Murphy’s Law, whether they come from “space,” or more likely in my opinion, another dimension.

This… oh wow… it’s not fake? I can’t belive it. I was waiting for something like this for so long and… that’s how we’re going to know the truth? I don’t know what to think about this. Maybe it’s fake, maybe it’s FBI trolling… or maybe it’s the greatest upload mistake in human history>…

So you believe this message because it backs up your pre-existing belief, even though it was 3 years after the fact?
Why do you hold no faith in the actual initial report that was from 5 days after it happened and the same day that the military started to even investigate the site (and also from an internal FBI memo), which stated that the disk was 20 feet in diameter (not the 50 it grew into 3 years later) and hexagonal, rather than circular? From that other internal report:
“The disc was hexagonal in shape and was suspended from a ballon [sic] by cable… the object found resembles a high altitude weather balloon with a radar reflector.”
Having said that, there is one significant, questionable quote from the document immediately following that quote: “Conversation between their office [*redacted* headquarters eigth air force, which is in Louisiana] and Wright field [Wright-Patterson Air Force base in Ohio. The objects were sent here for study.] had not *redacted* borne out this belief”
Source: http://vault.fbi.gov/Roswell%20UFO/Roswell%20UFO%20Part%201%20of%201/view
So, from literally the first day of the investigation, they gave a description that exactly matched a high-altitude balloon. Sure, a cover-up would have to start quick, but that is quick,even by cover-up standards.
Actually, considering what actually was found, the government was more than happy to let the public think it was a weather balloon, or even a UFO, to misdirect people from the truth.
Truth be known, as a lot of others know, what was really found was a high altitude balloon with sensitive microphones attached, in order to hear the sound waves of Russia doing nuclear bomb tests.
It was called Project Mogul.

Since most of my family has lived in Roswell for over 80 yrs, I have come to believe that they have found a UFO. If you look up UFO means Unidentified Flying Object. Says nothing about being from outer space. How ever after seeing some of the metals (that my grand father keeps hidden away in a safe) It is definitely not from this planet. The FBI, Secret Service, and Air Force agents That descended on the small town of Roswell, threatened most of all citizens that had even got a glimpse of what crashed, with imprisonment, treason, and even the taking of their properties. Project Mogul was happening and it wasn’t the Russians that they were spying on (look at a map New Mexico is no where near Russia). So what were they looking for? I don’t know. This you can be sure. It Crashed. Its Not From This Planet. The Proof Is There. We Are Not Alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Project Mogul was happening and it wasn’t the Russians that they were spying on (look at a map New Mexico is no where near Russia).”
First and foremost, Mogul never went past the testing phase. So, even if they never got any useable data about Russia, that doesn’t mean they weren’t the target.
(But to some, this is irrelevant because there are (hard to confirm) reports that it actually worked, and did detect Russias first test in August 1949.)
Now, what was the logic behind even having this test, when obviously Russia isn’t in a line of sight with New Mexico? It was the brainchild of a scientist named Dr. Maurice Ewing. It is a very well known fact that in different parts of the ocean, at different depths and with different salinities and other factocs, that sound can enter what is usually called a “sound channel” and travel extremely far distances. Dr. Ewing postulated that this same theory might happen in the atmosphere as well, with high altitude sound waves carrying through the tropopause. Dr. Ewing was right, although the actual Mogul program was scrapped a few years later due to better science and technology, including detecting the same sound data on the ground, along with detecting the signature particles that are shot through the atmosphere as well. Maps of some of these trajectories and channels can be seen at http://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/pdf/10.1175/1520-0477%281992%29073%3C1797%3AFTSOTF%3E2.0.CO%3B2 .
I feel like I am forgetting something, but I’m tired.
P.S.: Isn’t it interesting how many people had grandfathers that were involved in this situation?

Lol Nice. Well I’ve seen these things things first hand. My grandfather is still affraid of loosing his farm. What ever was said to him that long ago, instilled a fear that still lives in him today. By the way the crash was actually no where near Roswell. It was almost 200 miles away from Roswell.
At the time when this happened, the air base in Roswell Had bean researching many levels of experimental craft. Any number of things could be the truth about this crash. But one thing is for sure. What ever was found and what I’ve seen and handled has nothing to do with this planet. By the way I will Abduct for beer!!

Just for reference – the scan shown on this page is not on the FBI website… there is only 1 scanned page available in the ‘Vault’ – and this isn’t it.

Another Roswellian here, but with a little dose of skepticism here. Read the report again, slowly. It does not say the FBI knew there was an alien crash – it says that they also ceased communication after the ufo witness. As a resident of this lovely town (Roswell), I can tell you there would have been plenty of military personel who would have sworn up and down about the crash ***3 years*** after the alleged incident occurs. Had this thing been dated closer to the date of the incident – say, within a week – this would have been significant.

This document is not new to ufo circles, and it isn’t even about the Roswell crash. It’s an account of the Aztec UFO Incident — you know, Frank Scully and company — and the information came from a third to fourth hand report that the Air Force OSI agent had heard (or read in the papers).

This is crazy! I hope we learn more about visitors from elsewhere, or at least life from elsewhere, soon.

I’d never heard of the black bandage suit thing, but the similarity to something terrestrial suggests that the saucers contained terrestrial beings as well. Just because they were short and different looking does not make them less than human. It may, however, suggest that they were deformed, or going out on a limb here – designed. But that’s another can of worms.

This is a hoax that has been known about for ages.
It was a story told by a guy trying to convince investors he had secret alien technology that could be used to locate underground oil. “it appears this was the result of a story told by (oil scam artist) Silas Newton, during a lecture at the University of Denver on March 8, 1950 (two weeks before the document was written),”
