The Roswell UFO crash of 1947 has become one of the most significant incidents of the 20th Century. It has perhaps become engraved in the pubic psyche as much as the Kennedy Assassinations, Marilyn Monroe and even the moon landings. Whatever your 'beliefs' on Roswell - one thing is assured, you almost certainly know what is alleged to have happened there back in 1947. There has been so much literature on the subject, that it would be impossible to give a full reference cite in this one short article. But before we introduce our 'witness' to Roswell - and his exclusive evidence - here's the 'Roswell' story in 'elevator mode'

On July 8th, 1947 - Colonel Blanchard released a press statement that a 'flying saucer' had crashed near Roswell and the army had recovered the 'disc'. Some time later, the press release was retracted and the army said that it was just a weather balloon. Out of the public eye - the Roswell Incident' faded and dispersed into the corners of UFOlogy - not surfacing until 1978 when Stanton Friedman interviewed Major Jesse Marcel - who was involved in the recovery of the crash debris - and the whole issue of Roswell simply caught fire. And this fire has raged ever since. There are credible accounts of recovered non-human entities and materials of an apparent 'non terrestrial origin. Roswell became synonymous with the term 'cover-up' and soon became the symbol and 'core' of much ufology. It touched a 'nerve' - in the public psyche, and, it seems, within deep United States Government agencies.

Official explanations fall short.

In 1994 then New Mexico State representative Steven H. Schiff (now deceased) initiated a search of government documents relating to the Roswell event via the Government accounting office (GAO).

The US Air Force responded to the GAO inquiry with a 900+ page report entitled; The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert by Richard L Weaver, Col., USAF in 1995. The report concluded that:

"....the most likely source of the wreckage recovered from the Brazel Ranch was from one of the Project Mogul balloon trains." Link

Two years later, during the 50th anniversary of the event, and following questions regarding the descriptions of strange bodies. The Air force issued a second report; The Roswell Report: Case Closed. Which offered the following:

"Aliens" observed in the New Mexico desert were actually anthropomorphic test dummies that were carried aloft by U.S. Air Force high altitude balloons for scientific research." LINK

Significantly these explanation fail to address much of the key witness testimony. Consider the following:

The Mogul balloon trains were made of common materials. Major Jesse Marcel and other witnesses were extremely unlikely to mistake balloon debris for anything else.

The "Anthropomorphic dummies" were not being used in 1947, in fact they were not even manufactured until 1950. Three years after the event!

According to the testimony of several witnesses the material recovered at the foster Ranch was extremely unusual

General Thomas DuBose, at that time a Colonel, and General Ramey's chief of staff, prepared an affidavit prior to his death in 1992. Which included the following:

"The material shown in the photographs taken in Maj. Gen. Ramey's office was a weather balloon. The weather balloon explanation for the material was a cover story to divert the attention of the press. I have not been paid or given anything of value to make this statement, which is the truth to the best of my recollection. Signed: T. J. Dubose." - http://www.majesticdocuments.com/witnesses.firsthand.php

June Crain (deceased) was stationed at Wright field at that time and describes being shown a piece of this unusual material:

"....Okay it was Lieutenant Rose is the one that showed it to me, or Captain Wheeler [...] And he says " June, you´re good. Tear that thing apart, break that up." And I took it and I bent it and I twisted it and I laid it back down, and it went (sound) got right back to the same shape. I got back to my desk and he said, "cut it. Cut it. Try cutting it." I got on my desk. I got my scissors out and I snipped at it, and you know there was no way I could cut even cut that piece of metal. And it was as light as a feather. [...] I even took the edge of the scissors and laid it on...you know [..] Took the scissors like this, and I whacked it like this, and I couldn´t even make a dent in it. Just nothen. Cause he said tear it up, so I tried every thing I could to tear it up, and I couldn´t tear it up. I couldn´t make a dent in it; I couldn´t make a mark on it"

As the freedom and access to information blew open many doors during the end of the last century, many of the soldiers, airmen and other witnesses to 'Roswell' started to come forward. No longer restricted by the conditions of their old employers, these men and women - some now in their 70's and 80's - wanted to Do The Right Thing.

One of these men is Sgt. Earl Fulford (pictured above)

Now a seasoned 82 year-old veteran, - Sgt. Fulford was an original witness who was researched by Thomas J Carey and Donald R Schmitt for their ground-breaking book - 'Witness To Roswell'. Tom Carey was good enough to hook Sgt. Fulford up with the Open Minds Research Team - who have now interviewed this vital Roswell witness and produced an exclusive audio account compiled from hours of candid conversations on the subject of the Roswell crash - in particular, Sgt. Fulford's deployment into the 'debris field'. In this amazing audio - we learn of entirely new evidence. Descriptions of the 'memory material'. How it felt. How it behaved and how it looked. Sgt. Fulford is clear about one thing - the material he saw all had "geometric shapes". There were no tears, splits or jagged edges - all the material had completely straight edges. This is important information - not only does this show that the material was not 'balloon material' or 'mylar' (not invented then) - but there is an intriguing aspect to the material having 'geometric shapes' ( "there were no curved edges") - does this suggest something about the inherent nature and structure of the strange material itself?

This interview is one of the new 'exclusives' on the Roswell crash. It has taken over half a century for all 'the truth' to get out 'there'. But here is a crucial witness with some exclusive first-hand insight. To listen to the first part of the audio - only just released 15th February, 2008 - the first hour long segment of this amazing audio interview with Sgt. Fulford will be streamed live from the Open Minds Forum main website within the next few days.

With the latest events in Stephenville, Texas - and new developments in UFOlogy reaching an all-time high; with reports coming from around the world more so than in any time in history - we are perhaps at the cusp of a full Disclosure.

Now with the addition of Earl Fulford's exclusive new evidence - this incredible yet 'hidden' history is becoming very much up to-date.
