=== Colonel Thomas DuBose: Switching the Material ===
Colonel Thomas DuBose, Ramey's chief of staff at Fort Worth, gave a sworn affidavit stating that what Ramey displayed to the press was '''not''' the actual recovered material — that a substitution had been made. DuBose stated that the real debris had already been forwarded to Wright Field and that what was displayed at Fort Worth was substituted material to satisfy the press and create the weather balloon cover story. DuBose's affidavit, given decades later when he was in his eighties, represents one of the strongest single pieces of testimony for the Roswell-to-Wright-Field chain of custody.
