Roswell 

  The Roswell UFO 

The UFO crash at Corona, New Mexico, still captures the imagination of thousands of UFO enthusiasts. Fifty four years on, it is still shrouded in mystery and secrecy.    

 

Roswell deserves a very special mention after all the efforts and research by various individuals and is probably regarded as the  biggest cover up of all time.   

 

  

                                                                                                                                                            

On the 3rd/4th July 1947 an unidentified flying object crashed to earth near Corona, New Mexico "Mac" Brazel a ranch foreman was riding the range on 3rd July 1947, when he came across a field  of metallic debris. Approximate coverage was around 3/4 of a mile in length and about 300'  wide.

The debris consisting of foil like material, thin pieces of metal and I-beams, more or less covered the area mentioned.  Strangely enough,  the thin metal on inspection by Brazel could not   be bent  or even burnt.  "Mac" collected a few samples to show his closest  neighbors, Floyd and Loretta Proctor, who lived around ten miles from his ranch.

Brazel asked the Proctors to accompany him to see the field,  but they turned down the invitation  on account of the distance involved plus the expense of gasoline. This was a shame really as he would have had another witness to the debris field .

Sheriff George Wilcox of Roswell advised Mac Brazel that they call the local air base to report the finding. Frank Joyce of Roswell radio station KGFL also interviewed "Mac" regarding the find. Brazel was "interviewed" by the military for nearly a week reference the Roswell Crash, and probably sworn to secrecy; some say that as an added incentive he was given a large amount of money to "forget" the whole affair.
