Seven UFO Crashes & Retrievals in New Mexico 1945–1948 Seven UFO Crashes & Retrievals in New Mexico 1945–1948 Presented to Highlands Ranch Historical Society June 17, 2017 Greetings. My name is Chuck Wade. I truly feel it is an honor to stand before you today to give you my presentation entitled. “ Seven UFO Crashes and Retrievals in New Mexico, 1945 – 1948.” The picture on this page is from my website’s home page. In my hands I am holding two pieces of foil that Mr. Art Campbell and I retrieved from the UFO crash site on the Plains of San Augustin, New Mexico. Please don’t ask questions during the talk. If there is time, I will be happy to take questions at the end. Also, I will be here after my talk and I encourage you to introduce yourselves and continue the discussion. 1 I’ll start my presentation by introducing you to the map of New Mexico with the seven UFO crash sites and related features identified. 2 1. The first UFO crash was at San Antonio, New Mexico, in August 1945. This craft was 25’ to 30’ long and “avocado-shaped”. 2. The second UFO crash happened the night of 1-2 July 1947 on the Plains of San Augustin, New Mexico. This craft was 32’ in diameter. 3. The third UFO crash is being studied by MUFON investigators Chuck Zukowski and Debbie Ziegelmeyer. They are calling this site the Alternative Site, southwest of Roswell. I theorize this crash happened the night of 4 July 1947 and may have been a 25’ oval-shaped craft. 4. The fourth UFO crash occurred ar the Haut/Corso site north of Roswell the night of 4 July 1947. I contend that this crash changed the course of history. 5. The fifth UFO site is the Corona Debris Field located 75 miles northwest of Roswell and 30 miles southeast of my home town – Corona, New Mexico. We now know the craft was 100’ in diameter, and we know that it scattered truckloads of debris at the Corona Debris Field. 6. The sixth UFO crash site is the Jim Ragsdale site located 53 miles west of Roswell in the foothills of the Capitan Mountains. This craft was 20’ in diameter. 7. The seventh UFO site is located in Hart Canyon about 9 miles north of Aztec, New Mexico. This craft was 100’ in diameter and landed completely intact on 25 March 1948. 3 Most of you do not know me so I will give you a brief bio of myself. I was born in 1939 and raised in the small town of Corona, New Mexico. My dad owned the Wade Bar in Corona for 42 years. If any of you traveled US Highway 54 between El Paso, Texas and Tucumcari, New Mexico during the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, and early 70’s, there’s a good chance you stopped at Wade Bar for a pit stop and a soda. I graduated from Corona High School in 1957. I truly wanted to be an engineer so I tried college a couple of times, but I did poorly. I joined the Navy in 1959 and served four years active duty with the Naval Seabees. I remained in the Naval Seabee Reserves for the next 12 years, then finished my Navy career with 14 years in the Naval Civil Engineering Corps. I did receive a Civil Engineering degree from New Mexico State University in 1968. I even made the Dean’s List! I had the good fortune to marry Nancy in 1965. We have two grown children. After graduating from NMSU I worked for a large general contracting company for eight years. One interesting assignment I had was when the company was awarded several contracts to build more than 100 air traffic control towers, scattered throughout the United States. When we started building towers there were four regional superintendents, each overseeing the construction of about 25 towers. By the end of the job I was the last superintendent overseeing all the remaining unfinished towers. For a while I had 19 towers under construction in 15 states. I consistently visited each tower at least once a week. 4 Nancy and I and our two children moved to Gallup, New Mexico in 1977 and started our own general contracting business in 1978. We ran Wade Building Company for twenty-two years. In 1999 my military retirement kicked in and we closed our business so that I could spend more time with my two hobbies, Alternative Energy and UFO’s. As I said, I grew up in Corona, New Mexico, right in the middle of the state. The events that came to be known as “the Roswell incident” in 1947 actually happened 30 miles southeast of Corona. Mac Brazel found a large amount of debris on the Foster Ranch, where he was the foreman, Mac came to Corona and requested my dad to close the bar and go out to the ranch to help him determine what caused all that debris. Mac told Dad that his sheep would not cross the debris to go to water. Dad declined Mac’s request, but Dad DID suggest that Mac report this event to the military in Roswell. I have heard my dad say many times that he wished he had gone with Mac. Mac then went up to the Corona Drugstore and asked Geraldine and Archie Perkins to go out to the ranch to help him. They also declined to go with Mac, but Geraldine helped Mac make a phone call to Roswell. Geraldine told me this story on two different occasions in front of her daughter. 5 In 1980 the book The Roswell Incident by Berliner and Moore came out. As I was reading this book I got more and more excited, for there it was in print—items about a UFO crashing in 1947 southeast of Corona—that I had known about since I was seven years old! In the book, The Roswell Incident, there was a picture of Bill Brazel, Mac Brazel’s son. The caption under the picture stated that Bill had shown some artifacts from the debris field on the Foster Ranch, in my dad’s bar there in Corona. A few days later the military came to the ranch and confiscated the artifacts. I had known Bill since I was a kid, so when I read that caption I called him at his home in Capitan, New Mexico. We chatted for a while and he asked how my mother was doing, for my dad had passed away three years before. Mother was doing well at the time. I then read to Bill the caption under his picture and asked him, ―Is this true? He said, ―Yes! I made up my mind at that time that I wanted to know more about the UFO that crashed southeast of Corona in 1947. Over the last thirty- five years I have been on a quest to find out what my father did not see on the Foster Ranch. 6 My mother, Ollie D Wade, passed away in 1989. A couple of years before her passing, Mother and I went out to the Proctor Ranch to visit with Loretta Proctor. Mother and Loretta had been lifelong friends. Loretta told Mother and me about Mac Brazel bringing some of the crash debris over to their house. Floyd, Loretta’s husband, was unable to cut the debris or even scratch it. He tried burning a piece and it would not burn. Loretta said that this stuff did not look like anything she had ever seen before or since. My dad, Jesse Wade, was born in 1902 in Arlington, Texas one year before the Wright Brothers made their historic flight. New Mexico became a state in 1912; in the summer of 1912 my dad’s parents loaded him and all their belongings on a horse- drawn covered wagon and came to New Mexico as homesteaders. Their homestead was close to where the Proctor Ranch is today. Dad and Floyd Proctor were childhood friends back in Texas. A few years after the Wades came to New Mexico, Floyd Proctor rode a bicycle from Arlington, Texas to Corona, New Mexico and lived with Dad and his parents. 7 In the mid 1990’s I purchased the (then) latest book about the UFO crash near Corona, titled UFO Crash at Roswell. I was reading this book in my vehicle outside the bar in Corona when Robert Porter came over to talk. Robert Porter is Loretta Proctor’s brother; Robert’s mother and younger sisters were our neighbors for many years there in Corona. Robert saw the book I was reading and said, “I’m mentioned in that book.” Robert had been a B-29 flight engineer stationed in Roswell in 1947. He told me that he had handled some of the boxes of debris that were retrieved from the Corona Debris Field and sent to Fort Worth. He said the boxes were very light. In the early 1940’s our government built what became the Los Alamos National Laboratories near Santa Fe, New Mexico’s capital. The purpose of this facility was to research and build an atomic bomb. While Los Alamos was being built, three High-Powered radar units were also built to guard the skies over Los Alamos. One of these High-Powered Radar sites was at El Vado, New Mexico, near the Colorado border. The second High-Powered Radar unit was built near Continental Divide, New Mexico, near the Arizona border. The third High- powered Radar was a mobile unit stationed at Moriarty close to the center of New Mexico.

  • USAF Roswell Report Part 1
    FOREWORD This report represents a joint effort by Col. Richard L. Weaver and 1st Lt. James McAndrew to address the request made by Representative Steven H. Schiff (R-NM) for information regarding an alleged crash of an unidentified flying object (UFO) that occurred in the state in 1947. This publication duplicates the information provided to the Secretary of the Air Force and to the General Accounting Office (GAO). It was written as a result of Colonel Weaver’s and Lieutenant McAndrew’s efforts to locate the records that explain the events of July 1947 leading to what is popularly known as the Roswell Incident. The only information presented here that was not in the report delivered to the Secretary of the Air Force and the GAO is the photograph section. It appears after Colonel Weaver’s final attachment, at the very end of this book. The importance of attachment 32, Lieutenant McAndrew’s synopsis, derives from his description of Project MOGUL, the top-priority classified project of balloon-borne experiments, which provides the explanation for the “Roswell Incident.” Interest abounds surrounding the UFO wave of 1947 which began in the spring and did not dissipate until fall. Interest in UFOs climaxed during the summer, when multiple sightings of such objects occurred. RICHARD P. HALLION Air Force Historian ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This report and publication would not have been possible without the expert assistance and outstanding cooperation of many persons and organizations. Appreciation is extended to the Administrative Assistant to the Secretary of the Air Force, Mr. William Davidson, and to his predecessor, Mr.

July 1, 1947 TO ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS: There are presently 8,946 parole violators on whom wanted notices are posted in the fingerprint files of the FBI. Not included are probation violators of whom there are a substantial number. This means that an army of nearly nine thousand criminals has been released upon an unsuspecting public. Violation of parole is a tacit acknowledgement that the criminal does not intend to abide by the rules of organized society. It follows that society is the victim. To the individual law enforcement officer there iS ,nothing .. more disappointing, after apprehending a confirmed criminAl in a search involving hard and dangerous work, than to see the prison doors swing open before even a minor portion of that convict's sen- tence has been served. For the practical­minded officer knows that it is the public which too often pays for the habitual criminal's pa- role. Freedom for the confirmed lawbreaker through m.a1adminis- tration of parole m.akes a mockery of law enforcement. As a sincere advocate of parole but a resolute opponent of abuse in its administra- tion, I believe its value in our penal system must be measured by its effect on society. Properly administered, it is a valuable institution. In the hands of sentimentalists, corrupt politicians or persons who fail to acquaint themselves with the facts, it becomes a tragic farce.

  • ROSWELL INCIDENT" July 1994
    REPORT OF AIR FORCE RESEARCH REGARDING THE "ROSWELL INCIDENT" July 1994 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The "Roswell Incident" refers to an event that supposedly happened in July, 1947, wherein the Army Air Forces (AAF) allegedly recovered remains of a crashed "flying disc" near Roswell, New Mexico. In February, 1994, the General Accounting Office (GAO), acting on the request of a New Mexico Congressman, initiated an audit to attempt to locate records of such an incident and to determine if records regarding it were properly handled. Although the GAO effort was to look at a number of government agencies, the apparent focus was on the Air Force. SAF/AAZ , as the Central Point of Contact for the GAO in this matter, initiated a systematic search of current Air Force off ices as well as numerous archives and records centers that might help explain this matter. Research revealed that the "Roswell Incident" was not even considered a UFO event until the 1978-1980 time frame. Prior to that, the incident was dismissed because the AAF originally identified the debris recovered as being that of a weather balloon. Subsequently, various authors wrote a number of books claiming that, not only was debris from an alien spacecraft recovered, but also the bodies of the craft's alien occupants. These claims continue to evolve today and the Air Force is now routinely accused of engaging in a "cover-up" of this supposed event. The research located no records at existing Air Force offices that indicated any "cover-up" by the USAF or any indication of such a recovery.

Goldberg University of Utah About the John O’Sullivan Memorial Lecture In the spring of 2004, a group of senior citizen students at Florida Atlantic University paid tribute to John O’Sullivan, a beloved professor of history who died in 2000, by establishing a Memorial Fund to support an annual lecture in his honor. In keeping with John’s commitment to teaching, research, and community outreach, the mission of the John O’Sullivan Memorial Lectureship is to broaden and deepen public understanding of modern U.S. history. The Memorial Fund — which is administered by the Department of History — sponsors public lectures and classroom seminars by some of the most distinguished scholars and gifted teachers of American history. The lectures typically focus on topics relevant to Professor O’Sullivan’s specialties in 20th Century U.S. history, including: World War II, the Vietnam War, the nuclear age, the Holocaust, peace history, political and diplomatic affairs, and other topics.
