Four Ramey Message Comparisons
Source: Filer's Files #14 -- 2000, MUFON Skywatch Investigations Neil Morris writes from the University of Manchester in England. Several distinguished groups are attempting to interpret the writing on a message held in General Ramey's hand taken in the Commander's 8th Air Force office by
photographer James Bond Johnson in July of 1947. David Rudiak's sent his "take" of the message and allowed me to include it in the comparisons of readings taken from a message that takes up a tiny portion of the photograph. It has taken fifty years and modern computers to attempt to read the message. There are several interpretations of the message and we should emphasize that the various "takes" are far from being set in stone and
represent a "snap-shot" of a work in progress as of April. The
interpretations, I am sure, WILL change and evolve as time goes on.

HANGER 18, FACT OR FICTION?
Robert Collins writes recent investigations have turned up new information that may in fact point to a suspected place as Hangar 18 at WP but it's called Hangar 23: Hangar 23 sits between buildings 18F and 18A in the 18 Complex and so this might make it easier to understand how the Hangar 18 folklore developed? As the story goes from sources the Roswell or another
Craft(s) (dimensions of 30 X 15 feet disc) were brought into Hangar 23. The floor of the hangar was removed and the craft lowered into this newly dug out basement: A concrete floor was then placed over this basement area containing the Craft.
