They wouldn't store the UFOs at Roswell. Wright - Patterson, more likely.

On Roswell:
"This was one of the largest SAC bomber bases in the country, known as Walker Air Force Base until 1967, when it was shut down. It is now a civilain airport known as the Roswell Industrial Air Center. During WWII, it was called Roswell Army Airfield, and in 1947 it became fomous for its involvement in the notorious 1947 Roswell UFO incident. Though the UFO actually crashed on the nearby Brazel Ranch, representatives from the military based here at the time went out to examine the wreckage at the ranch, and brought it back to this facility. There is little doubt that something unusual did crash. The Air Force has recently released documents "proving" it was an experimental balloon-suspended nuclear test monitoring device. UFOlogists say these documents are just another layer in the cover-up. Several outlying airfields were associated with Roswell AAF, and as Maxwell AFB, several missile silos were constructed around the base. Roswell was also the location of rocket pioneer Robert Goddard's lab and test site in the 1930's."
"In 1979 Jesse Marcel was interviewed regarding his role in the recovery of the wreckage. Jesse Marcel stated, "... it would not burn ... that stuff weighs nothing, it's so thin, it isn't any thicker than the tinfoil in a pack of cigarettes. It wouldn't bend. We even tried making a dent in it with a 16 pound sledge hammer. And there was still no dent in it." Officers who had been stationed at Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio (where the wreckage was taken) at the time of the incident have supported Jesse Marcel's claims.
Dr. Jesse Marcel, Jr., eleven years old at the time of the incident, accompanied his Dad during the retrieval efforts. Dr. Jesse Marcel Jr. has produced detailed drawings of hieroglyphic like symbols that he saw on the surface of some of the wreckage. Dr Marcel testifies regularly on his belief that a UFO of some type crashed in Roswell. "
Roswell Field was where the 509th Composite Group trained for the Atom Bomb missions. Later, as Walker AFB it was a B-29 (1951-52), B-36 (1952-57), Atlas ICBM (1962-67), and a B-52E (1957-67) base.
We need an Alien/Dreamland/Black Projects thread!
