Pilot, Kenneth Arnold claimed that he saw a string of nine, shiny unidentified flying objects flying past Mount Rainier at speeds that Arnold claimed to be 1,200 miles an hour.

Arnold described what he saw
as white spheres that “skipped like saucers.”

He didn’t say they were flying saucers. He said they “skipped like saucers.”

☝️Allegedly “story-hungry reporters” took the “flying saucer” angle and ran with it in their stories. This was false!!

Two weeks later something went down at Foster Ranch in New Mexico.

On that night of something crashing at Foster Ranch, a big thunderstorm had moved over the Foster Ranch in New Mexico, where Mac Brazel was in charge of overseeing the ranch.

Among the lighting strikes hitting the ground, Mac Brazel noticed one was different…it sounded more like an explosion!

FOSTER RANCH

The next day Mac Brazel, his 8 year old son Vern, and Vern’s friend and neighbor, William “Dee” Proctor, were checking the fences for damage or that which needed repairs.

Mac was a foreman at the Foster Ranch.

They came upon an area that was covered with shiny pieces, and bits of something they didn’t recognize.

The material covered a large area that spanned a couple of small hills.

Was this scene the result of the “explosion” Mac had hear the night before?

Brazel’s first description to the press was that he found “strips of papery material that were covered with shiny foil.”

Brazil also said he found broken strips of lightweight wood and plastic…some of which had odd symbols on it, and spongy bits of rubber.

Brazel thought the debris looked like a broken kite.

Allegedly Mac Brazel then gathered up some of the debris, and then came back later with his wife and children to collect some more.

They then stored the material in a shed.

Mac’s daughter, Betty described what she saw in a 1979 interview.

Bessie Brazel said it was NOT a weather balloon.

Whatever it was she reported that there was some type of lettering on the debris.

In a signed affidavit Betty said what she saw looked like a broken balloon.

Whatever it was it couldn’t be torn.

☝️Mind you…this interview took place nearly 32 years after the event. Think about what could have happened between the event and the interview.

After hearing about the Arnold sighting, Mac Brazel reported his find to the local Sheriff, George Wilcox.

He said what he found might be a “flying saucer.”

Hmm..flying saucer you say?

Brazel first described a kite/balloon…but then he changes his story to “flying disk?”

Do you think there was some interference? Intimidation? Blackmail?

After this, Sheriff George Wilcox contacted Major Jesse Marcel, the base intelligence officer for Roswell Army Air Field.

This happened sometime on July 6/7 of 1947.

On July 8th Walter Haut, the public information officer at Roswell Army Air Field (RAAF), put out a press release that said individuals from the 509th Bomb Group of the Eighth Air Force, Roswell Army Air Field had picked up a “flying disk” that had crashed on a ranch in the Roswell area.

Flying disk you say?
Hmmm.

☝️And here was the headline that was put out as a result of Roswell’s Army’s Airfield.

On the night of July 8th, Mac Brazel was interviewed by a reporter from the Roswell Daily Record…as well as a reporter from the Associated Press named Jason Kellahin.

The Daily Record’s interview with Brazel was published the next afternoon.

Here is the full text of what was put out by the Associated Press. 👇👇

They say flying saucer and flying disk

Didn’t the pilot who saw something in the sky (Keith Arnold) two weeks prior say what he “skipped like saucers”?
So now the media is calling them flying saucers?
