The FBI snagged this one first and then forwarded it to the OSI who kicked over to Army Air Intelligence. They identified the bits and pieces as mundane enough materials of earthly origin. It was the notation 'Mogul' in handwriting that drew attention.
A closer examination of the file for this find from Hackensack, New Jersey revealed that someone had gone through it at a later date. The notation of 'Mogul' appears to be from that later date. I found myself wondering if the notation was from the time when the Project Mogul was declassified. Or was it just before the Air Force released their 'final answer' in "Roswell: Fact vs Fiction" report from the early 1990's.
Project Mogul only ran from 1947 to 1949 before its work was taken up by Skyhook and Moby Dick High Altitude balloons.
