WW "Mack" Brazel and the Start of the UFO Phenomenon

This is the guy who started it all - a rancher in Roswell New Mexico. In early July 1947 there was a lot of reported UFO activity in the skies both internationally and in the US, but Mr. Brazel was the rancher who heard a crash on his Roswell ranch and decided to investigate it. He found unusual pieces of wreckage and took it into town to show the sheriff. Eventually the military became involved and Mr. Brazel was locked up for a week with no contact with anyone. When he was released he refused to talk about his experiences and the military explanation was changed to a "weather balloon crash." No wonder there are so many conspiracy buffs!
