Full Description & Details

I was nine years old at the time playing catch with a friend in front of my house when we

saw this object in flames crossing the sky.

In size it was a little bigger than a full moon .That was the way it look to me from were i was

standing. At first i thought that it was a large meteor. It took about5 or 6 second to cross my

line of sight.It was in flames with trail of smoke and making a sound like an airliner flying

over new york city ready to land

.The next day I bought the newspaper to find out were this huge meteor hit . There was no

mention of any meteor hitting anywhere. What I found was a small article denying the crash

qf a flying saucer in ROSWELL NEW MEXICO THE ARTICLE SAID THAT IT WAS A

WEATHER BALLOON.THAT CRASHED NOT A FLYING SAUCER AS IT WAS FIRST REPORTED.

I was 9 years old at the time I accepted that explanation. NOW I AM 67YEARS OLD AND I

DO NOT BUY THE STORY GIVEN IN JULY 1947 AS TO WHAT CRASHED INNEW MEXICO

BELIEVE ME THAT WAS NOT A WEATHER BALLOON THAT I SAW IN JULY1947.AFTER ALL

THESE YEARS OF THE GOVERMENT TRYING TO COVER THIS INCIDENT I CAME TO THE

CONCLUTION THAT WHAT I SAW WAS A SPACESHIP OF SOME KIND IN DEEP DEEP

TROUBLE FINALLY CRASHING IN ROSWELL NEW MEXICO
