Brief Analysis of Ramey Message — Implications
There is no question that Ramey’s message, even when greatly enlarged and then enhanced by computer, is a very difficult read because of fuzziness, film grain noise, uneven development, photo defects, paper folds and tilt, shadows, and text obscured at the left margin by Gen. Ramey’s thumb.
This will inevitably prompt comments from die-hard skeptics that my full “take” on the Ramey message is strictly in my imagination.
However, there are various keywords and phrases that can be readily seen by anyone, even in lower resolution scans of the message first analyzed in 1999 by a number of people. These keywords and phrases unambiguously prove that there is no truth whatsoever to the various Air Force “explanations,” be they the original 1947 “weather balloon” story, or the Air Forces updated “Mogul balloon” and “crash dummies.”
Far and away the most important word of the entire message is “VICTIMS” on the third line (part of phrase “THE VICTIMS OF THE WRECK”). If there were “VICTIMS”, then this was no Mogul balloon crash. As the Air Force Roswell report itself noted (using splendid circular reasoning) reports of bodies being recovered couldn’t be true because the crash was of a Mogul balloon, which had “no ‘alien’ passengers therein.”
Of course Ramey’s mention of “VICTIMS” in 1947 also disproves the already preposterous “crash dummies” theory. The only way these 1950′s crash dummies could be “victims” is if they also time-warped back to 1947.
Another easily seen keyword and phrase is “DISC” and “IN THE ‘DISC” on the fifth line. Ramey is clearly describing the crash object as a “DISC”, not as a “weather balloon”, or a “Mogul” or a “radar target” or a “RAWIN” (jargon term for a radar wind target), or any other word or phase that in any way suggests some sort of balloon or balloon paraphenalia. In fact, the only mention of “weather balloons” and “RAWIN” targets comes at the very end of the message in the context of issued public statements and damage-control.
(The word “DISK” is also used on the first line in reference to what had been found, but this instance of the word is not so easily seen.)
Furthermore, the message refers to the subsequent shipment of something
“IN the disc.” Neither balloons nor the two-dimensional, flimsy radar kites had anything “inside” that could be shipped. If Ramey had been referring to some piece of balloon payload equipment, then the phrase should have begun with “attached to” or “suspended from”, or “with”, etc.
In speaking of “THE VICTIMS OF THE WRECK”,, using the word “DISC” for the crash object, and shipping something “IN THE DISC”, Ramey is clearly referring to something other than a balloon crash. The simplest interpretation is to take the words literally. There is no reason for Gen. Ramey to be describing events abstractly in a secret communication to his superiors. This was the actually crash of a so-called “flying disk” craft with a dead crew found on the inside, as corroborated by the testimony of military and civilian witnesses.
The Public “Roswell Incident”
On July 8, 1947 at 5:26 EDT, an Associated Press news wire announced that Roswell Army Air Field had reported recovering a “flying disk” from a nearby rancher’s property, first found “sometime last week,” and that it was being flown to “higher headquarters.” The curious base press release triggered a national press feeding frenzy.
Later “higher headquarters” was announced to be Brig. Gen. Roger Ramey, head of the 8th Army Air Force at Fort Worth, Texas. The Roswell 509th Bomb Group was a subcommand of the 8th AAF. It was also announced that the recovered “disk” was eventually destined for Wright Field, Ohio, home of the Air Materiel Command and the AAF’s aeronautical research labs.
Within about an hour of the press release, Gen. Ramey began putting out an alternate weather balloon version of the story. And about two hours later, the photo at the above right was taken of Gen. Ramey (crouched down) and his Chief of Staff, Col. Thomas Dubose (seated). Ramey repeated his story that what was recovered at Roswell was nothing more than the remains of a weather balloon and its aluminum foil radar target kite shown displayed on the general’s office floor. Later Ramey brought in a weather officer to make the identification official.
The press bought the change of story. Just to make sure, the Army and Navy engaged in a debunking campaign during the following days which involved weather balloon and radar target demonstrations. The weather balloons, the public was told, explained not only what was found at Roswell, but also accounted for the numerous “flying disk” or “flying saucer” sightings that preceded the Roswell events.
Air Force Changes Its Story
This was the official story for the next 47 years until constituents asked Congressman Steven Schiff of New Mexico to look into it. After getting what he thought was the run-around from the Air Force, Schiff in 1994 asked the Congressional General Accounting Office (GAO) to investigate, forcing the Air Force to amend its old weather balloon story. Now it wasn’t just any weather balloon. It was supposedly a top secret Mogul balloon made up of multiple weather balloons and radar targets and launched from nearby Alamogordo, N.M.
Three years later, just in time for Roswell’s 50th anniversary, one of the USAF counter-
intelligence agents involved in the earlier report issued an additional “Case Closed” report on the stories of bodies being recovered. According to him, the reports of bodies were nothing more than highly distorted memories of “crash dummies” used in ejection tests carried out in New Mexico during the 1950′s.
The Ramey Message — What really happened
Barely noticeable in one of the 1947 photos and clutched in Gen. Ramey’s left hand is a slip of paper (boxed in red). Probably unwittingly, Gen. Ramey had the text side facing towards the camera, allowing the text on this paper to be photographed.
When blown up and analyzed, it tells a remarkably different story of events from the one Ramey or contemporary Air Force counter-intelligence wants you to believe.
The message turns out to be a telegram from Gen. Ramey to the Pentagon and
Gen. Hoyt Vandenberg, the acting AAF Chief of Staff at the time. Ramey is providing Vandenberg an update on the very fluid situation in-the-field at Roswell.
The first paragraph describes what had been found. Ramey starts by acknowledging “THAT A ‘DISK’ IS NEXT NEW FIND.” He then adds that “THE VICTIMS OF THE WRECK” and something else (possibly just “A WRECK”) had also been found near the recovery “OPERATION AT THE ‘RANCH’.” At the end it states that “YOU” (i.e. Gen. Vandenberg) had ordered the “victims” and/or the wreckage “FORWARDED” to “FORT WORTH, TEX.”
In the second paragraph, Ramey describes how the situation was being handled. Ramey first states that something “IN THE ‘DISC’”, probably the bodies of the “forwarded” “victims” (and possibly termed “AVIATORS”) would be flown by a B-29 Special Transport or C-47 to the “A1” (personnel director) of some “8TH ARMY****” division, most likely the head flight surgeon at Fort Worth given the context. Wright Field, Ohio, home of the AAF’s aeronautical labs, was to assess the Roswell crash object (possibly referred to as an “AIRFOIL”).
Finally Ramey outlines how the situation was being treated publicly and how they were going to cover it up. First he assures Vandenberg that the earlier highly inflammatory Roswell base press release (referred to as the “MISSTATE MEANING OF STORY”) was the work of an Army counter-intelligence team (“CIC/TEAM”), but that the “NEXT SENT OUT PR” (Press Release) would be “OF WEATHER BALLOONS.” Ramey finishes with the statement that the weather balloon story might be better accepted if they also added weather balloon radar target demonstrations. This apparently was the impetus for the national debunking campaign using the devices that followed over the next few days.
