Origins of the Roswell balloon theory, and UFO cover up fiasco.

Was doing some research involving data mining counter intelligence activities, and well rather stumbled across this tid bit of info.

Not really my slice of pie, but being an inquisitive mind and ATS resident, I was curios. After reading the docs, I can now see where much confusion regarding Roswell stems from.

Perhaps after having read these docs for your selves, and perhaps saving them for future reference, such common mis-conceptions and general mistakes can be prevented.

Deny Ignorance after all, to do so we all must remain open minded and receptive to all sides of a story. Not "cherry picking" and taking out of context material, which favors selections.

That scribd site was running really slow so I googled the title and found another source:

I read through the document and I kinda thought (I cant put my finger on it) that it didn't seem very professionally written, there was something about it, the site I linked to above www.majesticdocuments.com... gave it a rating of authenticity:

Medium-High Level of Authenticity - 60-80%

So its not a "confirmed" document if you will...

Thanks for sharing

What I have not noticed before in all accounts and documents regarding Roswell is this comment from your document link.

The recovery of five bodies in a damaged escape c y l i n d e r , precluded an i n v e s t i g a t i o n at
L Z - 1

So it appears there was an escape pod as such? hopefully the docs are legit.

The Doc's looked like there from an old fax machine orginals rather than official Doc's.
