The Roswell UFO Crash - Walter Haut Speaks From the Grave - Page 2
By Bill Knell
The public might also start to reconsider reports about Flying Saucers that came from even the most credible people given the simple mistake that a man like Marcel could make
when confronted with something new or different that the government had developed and failed to fully brief him about. The alleged radar-reflecting materials shown at the infamous
Ramey ‘Oops, we were wrong’ Press Conference provided tangible evidence that we’re all human (well, maybe not) and make mistakes.
The mere fact that Ramey took on the job of appearing before Reporters instead of sending an associate and excused Marcel for his mistake in front of the press sealed his
reputation as a master cover-up artist and media manipulator. Because he was able to make these decisions so quickly without a misstep and move the focus away from Roswell to
his own command headquarters in Ft Worth, the press had no time to do their own investigation. Few in the mass media at that time were likely to challenge military officers that had
already admitted they made a mistake and provided what seemed like a reasonable explanation.
Ramey’s work also established the mentality of a cover-up within a cover-up which allows any and all detractors of the idea that an Alien Spacecraft crashed at Roswell to simply call
it all one big conspiracy theory. He did that by twisting facts and getting almost everyone involved to go on record as agreeing with the bogus explanation. If they changed their stories
later, it would make them appear to be part of another cover-up designed to preserve the reputations of officers that officially screwed up. That would easily reflect from the
government cover-up. Again, brilliant.
In 2002, Walter Haut left us his final statements about the events that occurred around the time of the crash through an updated affidavit:
“In July, 1947, I was stationed at the Roswell Army Air Base in Roswell, New Mexico, serving as the base Public Information Officer. I had spent the 4th of July weekend (Saturday, the
5th, and Sunday, the 6th) at my private residence about 10 miles north of the base, which was located south of town.”
“I was aware that someone had reported the remains of a downed vehicle by midmorning after my return to duty at the base on Monday, July 7. I was aware that Major Jesse A. Marcel,
head of intelligence, was sent by the base commander, Col. William Blanchard, to investigate.”
“By late in the afternoon that same day, I would learn that additional civilian reports came in regarding a second site just north of Roswell. I would spend the better part of the day
attending to my regular duties hearing little if anything more.”
“On Tuesday morning, July 8, I would attend the regularly scheduled staff meeting at 7:30 a.m. Besides Blanchard, Marcel; CIC [Counterintelligence Corp] Capt. Sheridan Cavitt; Col.
James I. Hopkins, the operations officer; Lt. Col. Ulysses S. Nero, the supply officer; and from Carswell AAF in Fort Worth, Texas, Blanchard's boss, Brig. Gen. Roger Ramey and his
chief of staff, Col. Thomas J. Dubose were also in attendance. The main topic of discussion was reported by Marcel and Cavitt regarding an extensive debris field in Lincoln County
approx. 75 miles NW of Roswell.”
“A preliminary briefing was provided by Blanchard about the second site approx. 40 miles north of town. Samples of wreckage were passed around the table. It was unlike any
material I had or have ever seen in my life. Pieces which resembled metal foil, paper thin yet extremely strong, and pieces with unusual markings along their length were handled
from man to man, each voicing their opinion. No one was able to identify the crash debris.”
“At approximately 9:30 a.m. Col. Blanchard phoned my office and dictated the press release of having in our possession a flying disc, coming from a ranch northwest of Roswell, and
Marcel flying the material to higher headquarters. I was to deliver the news release to radio stations KGFL and KSWS, and newspapers the Daily Record and the Morning Dispatch.”
“By the time the news release hit the wire services, my office was inundated with phone calls from around the world. Messages stacked up on my desk, and rather than deal with the
media concern, Col Blanchard suggested that I go home and "hide out."
“Before leaving the base, Col. Blanchard took me personally to Building 84 [AKA Hangar P-3], a B-29 hangar located on the east side of the tarmac. Upon first approaching the
building, I observed that it was under heavy guard both outside and inside. Once inside, I was permitted from a safe distance to first observe the object just recovered north of town. It
was approx. 12 to 15 feet in length, not quite as wide, about 6 feet high, and more of an egg shape. Lighting was poor, but its surface did appear metallic. No windows, portholes,
wings, tail section, or landing gear were visible.”
“Also from a distance, I was able to see a couple of bodies under a canvas tarpaulin. Only the heads extended beyond the covering, and I was not able to make out any features. The
heads did appear larger than normal and the contour of the canvas suggested the size of a 10 year old child. At a later date in Blanchard's office, he would extend his arm about 4 feet
above the floor to indicate the height.”
“I was informed of a temporary morgue set up to accommodate the recovered bodies. I was informed that the wreckage was not "hot" (radioactive).
Upon his return from Fort Worth, Major Marcel described to me taking pieces of the wreckage to Gen. Ramey's office and after returning from a map room, finding the remains of a
weather balloon and radar kite substituted while he was out of the room. Marcel was very upset over this situation. We would not discuss it again.”
“I would be allowed to make at least one visit to one of the recovery sites during the military cleanup. I would return to the base with some of the wreckage which I would display in my
office. I was aware two separate teams would return to each site months later for periodic searches for any remaining evidence. I am convinced that what I personally observed was
some type of craft and its crew from outer space.”
How do we reconcile the differences between the two statements? It’s now obvious that Haut saw he was probably in a no win situation regardless of what he said. Exactly the place
that Ramey intended him and any others that decided to become whistle blowers to be. Like Jesse Marcel Sr. and others that have come forward, Haut had a lot to lose by talking too
much and that might have included his life. More than a few government whistleblowers have been shot or killed after they crossed whatever imaginary line the Government has
created for people that talk too much.
Although we no longer have Walter Haut with us, he has had the last laugh when it comes to challenging excessive government secrecy by reaching out from the grave with these
stunning revelations.
