To SCEPCOP Members,
Dr. Jesse Marcel Junior, died last Saturday at 76 in Helena, Montana according to Associated Press news reports. Marcel died August 24, 2013 of a heart attack. A UFO book he was reading was found at the time of his death.
Marcel claimed that he handled some of the wreckage from the famous Roswell Crash case. Some of that wreckage were alleged I beams with purplish colored hieroglyphics on the beams.
Mr. Marcel played a major role in getting information about Roswell to the public and he had courage in going public about his involvement in this case. Serious UFO researchers owe Mr. Marcel a debt of gratitude for telling the truth about his involvement with Roswell and for not embellishing his claims.
