The late Sheridan Cavitt, who served as a counterintelligence agent at the Roswell Army Airfield in 1947 during the famous crash of an apparent extraterrestrial vehicle, provided puzzling statements in an affidavit provided to the U.S. Air Force in 1994 in support of the false balloon coverup story. Cavitt stated he accompanied Maj. Jesse Marcel, the air base’s top intelligence officer, when he drove to the Foster Ranch to investigate the UFO debris field discovered by rancher Mack Brazel, and knew immediately what he saw were remnants of a weather balloon. However, if he knew immediately it was a balloon, why did he never tell anyone about it? Instead, the next day, the Army Air Force issued its famous press release touting its recovery of a flying disc on a ranch near Roswell. Also, an early 1990s incident is discussed that involved a strange meeting Jesse Marcel, Jr., had with an unnamed government official. The official took the younger Marcel to a secure room within the Capitol building in Washington, D.C., and informed him, among other things, that the Roswell event did, in fact, involve a crashed alien craft.
