"In the last few months, as part of my effort to reconstruct what
happened at Roswell, I have had a number of conversations with
Irving Newton, the weather officer at Fort Worth Army Air Field
who was called in by General Ramey to identify the unusual
debris".
[...]
"In one of my conversations with Newton, quite by chance, a new
and important revelation came to light. He was describing the
color of the symbols on one of the balsa sticks and mentioned how
it was faint and had somewhat of a mottled appearance because of
"the way that the dye had bled through onto the surface of the
stick." This was a very important piece of information. The
symbols that Newton saw on the debris in Ramey's office were on
the surface of the stick, not on tape! The tape had apparently
peeled away, probably because of several weeks' exposure to
sunlight while it lay out in the desert. This serendipitous
revelation immediately cleared up one of the biggest questions in
my mind about the Roswell case -- how could Jesse Marcel, Sr., or
Jesse Marcel, Jr., for that matter, not have recognized flower
patterns on tape? The answer is now crystal clear. The symbols
they saw were not on tape. What they saw were images of the
original symbols from the dye that had bled through before the
tape had peeled away. Jesse, Jr.'s testimony about the symbols
definitely not being on tape was absolutely correct".
When Dr Marcel first gave his testimony in February of 1978, he
made no mention of any symbols on the I-beams.
Subsequently bringing this to light, in April of 1979, he wrote
to Stanton Friedman's associate, William Moore, advising, "I
omitted one startling description of the wreckage for fear it
might have been the fanciful imagination of a twelve-year-old".
"Imprinted along the edge of some of the beam remnants there were
hieroglyphic-type characters".
There seems compelling evidence, the source of the mysterious
"hieroglyphics" was that same pinkish-purple tape with flowers.
In the US Air Force report, Colonel Trakowski, who was the TOP
SECRET control officer for Project Mogul, confirmed the
distinctive pinkish- purple tape with flower and heart designs
was used at that time, in the construction of balloon radar
targets.

Conversely, if a number of obvious indications such as the above
were supportive of the debris containing metallic I-beams with
hieroglyphics, what credence would then be given to the claims of
a witness who recalled that when he was a young boy some 32 years
previously, he believed these to be wooden beams, imprinted with
symbols from pinkish-purple tape.
And whose recollections had become seemingly contradictory and
unsure.
It's a straightforward conclusion.
If the metallic I-beams with hieroglyphics never existed, but are
folklore born of Dr Marcel's uncertain memories, then the debris
footage is bogus and consequently the rest of the video footage
exceedingly likely to be equally so.
The Roswell case has been shown in a number of ways to be
explained beyond any reasonable doubt and critical documents
released under the FOIA confirm the absence of any fallout that
the known crash of an ET craft would have, and then some.
It should perhaps therefore be clear by this time that
extraordinary claims which attach themselves to 'Roswell',
whether video film of 'aliens' and ET debris, stories of reverse
engineered technology, tales from people who claim to have
participated in this or that related project, MJ-12 and now E2,
and so on, can never produce any meaningful evidence.
Roswell was a compelling case deserving of scrutiny and it's
regrettable it has become the focus for so many clueless
charlatans in recent times.
Like the case itself, it's not as if research into the 'alien
autopsy' footage hasn't turned up some telling evidence.
There's plenty of obvious clues and the 'debris' footage is one.
James.
