Text of the page (random words):
announcement about rogers s passing on air and let it go at that travis walton at the roswell ufo festival now i have the other side of the story which has done nothing to resolve the issue but does give us well a different perspective andré skondras posted the following that is relevant somewhere in the skies podcaster ryan sprague shared jennifer stein s response regarding mike rogers alleged deathbed confession about the travis walton case stein has a wonderful documentary called travis the true story of travis walton i think it s incredibly disrespectful to tamper with mike s final statements i do not believe he made any kind of deathbed confession because filmmaker patrick james visited him three days before his passing and got a completely different story directly from mike patrick james an arizona filmmaker will be releasing a documentary about the walton case soon if this were truly a final statement why didn t his daughter post the audio why just a text and then take it down a lot of things don t add up i don t believe it s a legitimate post i suspect it s charlie wiser trying one last time to convince the world that the walton case is a hoax i find this behavior sad and disrespectful i had very nice respectful texts with mike rogers in the weeks before he passed and he never mentioned any of this https youtube com ugkxjkwluro32s0salry https youtube com ugkxjkwluro32s0salry full interview https www youtube com live ino6bqnzy2q https www youtube com live ino6bqnzy2q https x com likeitmatters3 status 2036941617685553567 s 43 https x com likeitmatters3 status 2036941617685553567 s 43 but to repudiate this information wiser published the following to the comments of the previous post his daughter published a summary of it on quora she says it was recorded she s deleted the post now but a screenshot is on my twitter she s currently deciding how best to release the information although this is evidence that she posted it that she has since deleted is currently significant that she said that there was a recording is also significant as is the fact that the information is no longer available to us without that recording we aren t left with much evidence expect the apparent fact that she did post it i confess that i m confused by all this and it is something that happens far too often in the ufo field i can t count the number of times that i have run into this sort of thing two completely different points of view proving that a certain case is a hoax and the other underscoring the importance and validity of the event just look at the rumors half truths and outright lies that surround the roswell crash case on the other hand it is often important that we have all the information about a case a report a statement that illustrates the conflict so that we might come to a conclusion that fits our belief structure this means that some who know that there is no alien visitation believe any ufo sighting that isn t a mistaken view of natural world phenomena about us is a hoax on the other side are the true believers who accept any story about alien visitation no matter how outlandish that claim might be i try to fall in the middle of that continuum because i don t know that alien visitation is impossible but that i would like some stronger evidence proving that visitation here is an example of what i mean because there are two camps either walton was abducted by aliens or he invented the tale with some help i could argue either side of the debate because the published information philip klass s attack on the case is filled with holes but there are contradictions in walton s story as well there are roger s statements that no one saw walton abducted because they had driven off so where was he for those five days it is a case of i just don t know but the point here is that the tale of a deathbed confession by rogers doesn t seem to be accurate that of course leaves us right where we were when we entered the debate logic suggests it must be a hoax given the problems of interstellar travel and some of the best evidence suggests that walton was taken to draw a proper conclusion we simply need more and better information posted by krandle at 12 12 pm 8 comments labels jennifer stein mike rogers phil klass ryan sprague travis walton wednesday march 18 2026 mike rogers has died mike rogers who was the leader of the logging crew that included travis walton died on february 6 2026 he became something of a controversial character in the tale often accompanying walton to various ufo conventions appeared with him on several documentaries and was a featured character in the movie about the abduction fire in the sky he eventually said that no one saw walton abducted but seemed to believe that was what happened he was a gifted artist and many of the drawings and paintings of the walton case were the work of rogers he was also somewhat hot headed and sometimes saw conspiracy where none existed when i interviewed him for my x zone radio show and podcast there was a glitch in the taping which he believed was our attempt to sensor some of the things he said it was just a glitch which arose out of the complications of creating a show with the host in iowa the guest in arizona and the producer in canada sometimes the internet did not cooperate and sometimes mistakes were made rogers s interpretation of the walton aliens used with permission of mike rogers during that interview rogers said that the phoenix lights were not the important sightings he among others in widely spread parts of arizona and southern nevada had seen a large triangular object that traveled across most of arizona he provided a detailed description of that ufo but the lights seen over phoenix dominated the news media reporting of the events that night as we discussed the walton abduction i told him i thought it was a little chicken that he and the others left walton behind true they did return but that was after walton disappeared that is of course why no one saw walton abducted but they did see him hit with that beam of light on march 19 2021 mike rogers in a facebook post wrote i michael h rogers being of sound and rational mind do hereby give notice that i am no longer to be considered a witness to travis c walton s supposed abduction of november 5 1975 that set off a firestorm of controversy after that rogers told me that he not only hadn t seen walton abducted but that he had been saying that for years it was only in 2021 that people noticed given that discussion i wasn t sure exactly what rogers was saying but note that it doesn t bode well for the walton tale to make matters worse a couple of days later rogers told movie producer ryan gordon we were talking about creating a ufo hoax okay i don t know how the ufo got there but i remember when i was driving the truck and he jumped out it was all deliberate it was all a staged thing okay he ran up there and there was something about the ufo not being real although it looked real rogers and walton later reconciled and rogers issued a statement retracting his confession but the damage was done and there was the important point that rogers said that no one saw the abduction and that of course included rogers i am told by others that rogers liked to carve built furniture and had a silly side i had heard that he wasn t well these last few months and am surprised that word of his passing is nearly six weeks old he was 78 posted by krandle at 5 55 pm 6 comments friday february 27 2026 why jesse a marcel dropped out of the investigation people occasionally ask me why jesse marcel sr was left out the investigation once he had returned from the debris field with samples of the strange metallic material they say that you don t leave your intelligence officer out of the investigation good question and interesting point fran ridge and i were discussing who ran security at the impact site he mentioning robert t darden and me saying it was major edwin easley the documentation seemed to be on my side in this but that doesn t matter here the point was that it caused me to review the transcripts of the separate interviews with bill rickett conducted by don schmitt and mark rodeghier turns out there was a clue about why marcel disappeared from the event after he had gone out of the debris field rickett in describing his trip to the impact site mentioned that they had expected marcel to be there but he wasn t given the time line the reason was that marcel had been sent to fort worth with samples of the debris while the investigation was continuing in roswell and had shifted to the impact site where the craft and bodies were found marcel was in fort worth meeting first with general ramey and later with the press although marcel had been ordered not to say anything to reporter j bond johnson who took six photographs of the balloon debris he was later quoted in the fort worth star telegraph about what he had seen don schmitt and me on the impact site it was much closer to roswell than the debris field near corona by the time that marcel returned from fort worth the clean up on the impact site had been completed the material taken to the base and stored in a hangar there marcel was out of the loop for two reasons first he had been identified in the press release which made him a target for reporters that wasn t a problem because he was in fort worth while the investigation and clean up continued in roswell once ramey declared it was a weather balloon the reporters disappeared second by the time he returned the investigation such as it was had been completed in roswell if the craft was alien the information about it would have been classified as top secret there was no reason to expose marcel to what had been learned while he was in fort worth there was nothing he could add to the discussion at that point did marcel know about the recovery of the bodies i would say based on my experience as an intelligence officer probably but he hadn t seen them he had heard about them but he was uncomfortable talking about something that he hadn t seen with his own eyes he had seen the debris field and tested some of the debris he said that it was from something that had not been made on earth he had not seen the bodies as i say i suspect that he had heard the rumors but to him they were only rumors he didn t mention them for that reason it was rickett s statement about marcel coming out to the impact site that sort of triggered these thoughts you don t expose more people to the secrets than are necessary with the cleanup complete there was no reason to bring marcel into the event it was over in fact it seems that marcel had asked sheridan cavitt the cic oic in roswell about a report he had written cavitt refused to show it to him suggesting again that marcel had no need to know the event was over and ben franklin had said that three people can keep a secret if two of them are dead you simply did not provide information to someone who had no need to know and by the time marcel returned from fort worth he had no need to know okay let the firestorm begin i just handed in the book manuscript that i have been working on these last several months and am between projects for those keeping score at home i m about to begin another of the vietnam ground zero books written by eric helm posted by krandle at 12 03 pm 3 comments did the balloon debris ever reach wright patterson afb david rudiak every once in a while something new about the roswell case pops up david rudiak was making a somewhat routine search of the newspapers from july 1947 and found the following from the dayton hearld for july 9 you might say that it provides a different perspective on our ongoing search for evidence about the roswell events according to the newspaper under the headline field test out on flying disc wright field will not receive the weather device which for a while yesterday was believed to be a flying disc plans to send the object here for study were changed when the identification was made the office of technical intelligence received the following message from headquarters of the army air forces this morning in view of positive identification of this object as a rawin high altitude sounding device radar target it appears unnecessary to forward it to you the fbi telex that went out from fort worth on the evening of july 8 was based on an interview of major curtan who in reality was major kirton who told the fbi agent that the object was hexagonal in shape and was suspended from a ballon sic by cable which ballon sic was approximately twenty feet in diameter disc and balloon being transported to wright field by special plane for examin ation to me the news article suggests that the material was not sent on to wright field because it was identified in fort worth as a common weather balloon and not an alien space craft there was no reason to send it to wright field with the identification and photographs made in fort worth that would suggest that the interviews conducted by the air force in 1994 reflected poor memory about the event but were important because they underscored the mogul explanation the article says the balloon and the rawin target were not sent on to wright pat and i

home this was just an informational call he just wanted to let me know that someone had come to him with some debris from new mexico and he said this sure looked like some of the stuff that you launched from alamogordo duffy was very familiar with the various apparatus and materials for the project so if he said that it was debris from the project i m sure that s what it was he was not concerned with a breach of security for the project what we have here then are trakowski and athelstan f spilhaus relating what colonel duffy might have done spilhaus wrote all the nyu personnel had left alomogordo sic when the material was brought in someone stated that it may have been col duffy s and therefore was sent to him at wright patterson not because it was extraterrestrial it is a logical reason to send it the debris from the desert there not because it was special col duffy was a fine officer and i m sure he d recognize it trakows...
