Marcel claimed that he personally flew the UFO wreckage to Carswell AFB. He
could not have done so, for he was never a pilot. Despite this, Marcel
claimed in numerous interviews with Friedman and former National Enquirer
reporter Bob Pratt that he was not only a pilot but had managed to shoot down
five enemy aircraft! If so, this would have made Marcel an "ace," a
distinction that certainly would have been noted in his military file.
Instead, there's no record of this or even anything close, and in fact it was
General Ramey who specifically noted in Marcel's file that because he was not
a pilot, he would be severely limited in his career opportunities in the Air
Force. It's no wonder, then, that Marcel would later "blame" Ramey for the
"UFO coverup" at Roswell.
  Marcel claimed he had a bachelor's degree in physics and even named the
universities he attended. However, when I checked with those institutions, I
discovered that one of them he never attended, and he never finished his
education at the other. Curiously, while Marcel blatantly lied to UFO
researchers such as Friedman about his mythical educational background, he
never dared make such false claims to the military. Indeed, in signed
statements contained in Marcel's military file, he replies "none "when asked
under oath if he had a college degree.
  Does this tell us that Marcel knew his gullible UFO peers would never check
on him anyway? Or did he even care? We don't know.
  The book also notes that Friedman, even as of this writing, has failed to
refute these devastating new revelations about his "star" Roswell witness.
Indeed, in what can only be politely called lame rationalization, Friedman
counters that military records are notoriously inaccurate. While this is
sometimes true, the comment is irrelevant, since throughout Marcel's file his
signature repeatedly appears indicating that he signed off on its contents,
certifying them to be true. Until Friedman and other pro-UFO Roswell
researchers bother obtaining Marcel's entire military file, they are in no
position to make comments on it, let alone dismiss it.
  In addition to disproving Marcel's testimony, I also systematically
dismantle and refute other Roswell "eyewitness" testimonies such as those of
British Major Hughie Green, Roswell mortician Glen Dennis, Rueben Anaya,
Frankie Rowe, Frank Kaufmann, Jim Ragsdale, and others. In short, no credible
evidence from any witness has turned out to present a compelling case that
the object was extraterrestrial in origin.
  Having discovered the sad truth behind many of the testimonies concerning
the recovery of alleged "flying saucer" debris near Roswell, where does this
leave us? With no known scientifically verifiable physical remnants to study,
is there any way that we can determine the true nature and origin of the
actual wreckage that was collected? Fortunately, the answer is yes, but we
must first examine additional evidence.
