You would think that the rancher "Brazil" would have stashed a few of those artifacts before he ever contacted the military to come to get it especially given the fact it was so astonishing.

Cowboy Curtis is the perfect narrator for this.

Seems to me, if you wanted to find something today that crashed in that debris field in 1947, the best thing to do would be to gather about 500 experienced metal detector folks and comb that area in a grid pattern up to and even outside of the known field to see if they could find any small metal items that may have been part of the object that crashed there. Back in 1947 they didn't have the advanced metal detectors we have nowadays so the military could easily have missed some of it.

Imagine how shocked the public was all these years thinking the government covered up am alien crash but after 2020 we now know they cover up and distort reality at will. 🤷

Incredible how there is no mention of Mr. Stanton Friedman (The First Civilian Investigator of the Roswell Incident) in this video. Someone didn't do their homework during the production of this video.

Are the scanned pages from the journal available publicly anywhere? It would be interesting to see if some AI’s could ‘decode’, or maybe make more sense of the seemingly strange entries

Its been 78 years, it wasnt a government experiment or any human made experiment, if it was, we would have the technology all over the place today, yet we still dont have it ourselves, but we are seeing them every day.

What I find stunning is that so many in the USA and around the world have no clue what is true or false.
