What happened at Roswell 65 years ago? It may be a conspiracy theorist’s greatest mystery. Now, one former CIA agent says he has information that could solve it.

“It was not a damn weather balloon,” Brandon told the Huffington Post. “It was a craft that clearly did not come from this planet.” The 35-year agency veteran was a covert agent involved in international terrorism, counterinsurgency, global narcotics trafficking and weapons smuggling, and spent 10 years as the agency’s first entertainment and publication industries liaison.

One of the boxes had a single word written on it: Roswell. “I took the box down, lifted the lid up, rummaged around inside it, put the box back on the shelf, and said, ‘My God, it really happened!’” Brandon recounted.

Full disclosure before we storm the barricades: Brandon is promoting The Cryptos Conundrum, a new novel that his website describes as a “sci-fi, political conspiracy thriller about CIA’s cover-up of the Roswell UFO crash.”

1. I've

I've always believed 'something' happened. I'm sure the story has been exaggerated in parts over the years and I know some witnesses have been dismissed. However, it was a very sloppy cover up and too many witnesses. They were able to control the story for several decades but once some involved got older they talked. Like the JFK assassination, I doubt we'll ever know the extent of the story or the entire truth but I have always believed that a crash took place and that there were beings unlike us recovered.

2. lol

Sometime near the end of his service, while he was the entertainment liaison, Brandon walked into the CIA headquarters in Langley, Va., and found something he did not expect in a restricted section of old documents called the Historical Intelligence Collection.

One of the boxes had a single word written on it: Roswell. “I took the box down, lifted the lid up, rummaged around inside it, put the box back on the shelf, and said, ‘My God, it really happened!’” Brandon recounted.

3. Nothing like having a book out to suddenly jog your memory...

...about an earth-shaking discovery you made years earlier.

The first giveaway was the mention that he "spent 10 years as the agency’s first entertainment and publication industries liaison."

9. Without very strong evidence, he would have zilch credibility if he were a witness in a court of law

He would have a motive to lie. And I'm someone who believes that there's extraterrestrial intelligent life somewhere in the universe and I would love to know that it had visited Earth.

4. Promoting his new book, lol.

Come on.

5. I don't think anyone these days claims it's a weather balloon...

...but does he know what the pieces of a Project Mogul balloon looked like?

What was in the box, Brandon?

6. Is this the biggest unsolved mystery of the past century???

It seems like big mysteries keep getting proven or found or discovered all the time now....when will the truth finally come out about this and ruin it as well?? There must be some evidence somewhere to let us know what happened for sure.

7. Well gee, that pretty much nails it.

spent 10 years as the agency’s first entertainment and publication industries liaison.

8. The usual...

Cashing in.

He's got a book out, and is promoting it.

I look at Roswell and the entire "UFO culture" as a HUGE pile of cattle manure next to a diamond mine.

There is a possibility of a gem or two in there, but anyone looking for them is going to have to dig through tons and tons of bullshit to find it.

11. I have always believed there were UFOs.

When I was a child in Miami, FL, the Miami Herald would have headline stories about UFOs. No matter how much debunking about those stories, I believe we are not alone in this universe. I hope before I die that the truth will come out.
