The Roswell
Incident
By: Anna Cairo
The Story
On July 7 , 1947, an unidentified flying
object crashed on a ranch northwest of
the town. The rancher, W.W. Brazel,
found metal debris around the area, and
it was suggested by his neighbors Floyd
and Loretta Proctor that the pieces of
metal may have been from a UFO crash
due to the increased number of US sightings that had occurred that summer.
Brazel decided to report the incident to
George Wilcox of the Roswell sheriffs
office. According to several reports, Wilcox then contacted military authorities
at the nearby Roswell Army Air Field,
where Major Jesse Marcel was assigned
to investigate.
