AFFIDAVIT
I, Col. Philip J. Corso, (Ret.) do
hereby swear, under the penalties of perjury, that the following statements are
true:
That at all times hereinafter mentioned, I was a member and officer of the
defendant.
That during my tenure with the defendant I was a member of President
Eisenhower’s National Security Council and former head of the Foreign
Technology Desk at defendant’s Research & Development department.
That on or about July 6, 1947, while stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas, I
personally observed a four-foot non-human creature with bizarre-looking
four-fingered hands, thin legs and feet, and an oversized incandescent light
bulb-shaped head. The eye sockets were oversized and almond shaped and pointed
down to its tiny nose. The creature’s skull was overgrown to the point where
all its facial features were arranged frontally, occupying only a small circle
on the lower part of the head. There were no eyebrows or any indications of
facial hair. The creature had only a tiny flat slit for a mouth and it was
completely closed, resembling more of a crease or indentation between the nose
and the bottom of the chinless skull than a fully functioning orifice.
That in 1961, I came into possession of what I refer to as the ‘Roswell File.’
This file contained field reports, medical autopsy reports and technological
debris from the crash an extraterrestrial vehicle in Roswell, New Mexico in
1947.
That I have personally read the medical autopsy reports which refer to the
autopsy of the previously described creature that I saw in 1947 at Fort Riley,
Kansas.
That said autopsy reports indicated the autopsy was performed at Walter Reed
Hospital, which was under the authority of the defendant at the time of the
autopsy.
That said autopsy report referred to the creature as an ‘extraterrestrial
biological entity.’
Colonel Philip J.
Corso (ret.)
Sworn before me
