Project Mogul in Project Blue Book

Object recovered in 1947 near Shreveport, LA. Thought part of a hoax but lacks certainty and kept in the file.

Debris found in Hackensack, New Jersey, that FBI and Army Air Corp investigated in 1947 (August). A later hand had written on the report "Project Mogul."  This may have been added after it was declassified or when the Air Force was producing its final answer book in the 1990's. One of the interesting aspects of this ultra-top secret project was how so much of the paperwork and records of it disappeared. For future reference or study such information would have been very useful. Yet, often who test projects and their reports were sanitized by companies and/or their government funders leaving huge gaps in the record of many developments.
