Famous Roswell photographer James Bond Johnson set the record
straight for AAER concerning UFO debris being switched for
weather balloon debris in subsequent photographs taken in July
1947. James Bond, who prefers to be called "Bond" like
superhero 007 and with the same charismatic style, is a caring
and sensitive retired psychologist and minister. But in 1947, he
was dispatched on a military assignment to take what has now
become the worldwide famous Roswell photographs.
That is a bit of the false folklore that has grown around the
Roswell Incident. There could have been NO SWITCH of the Roswell
UFO debris. I unwrapped and arranged part of it in trying to
"pose" a useable picture. The "pieces" in ALL
the known fotos (I did not take the Newton shots) are lying in
the exactly the same position. In the time available -- and given
the lack of "set decoration" expertise of the
"actors" (remember, this was not a Hollywood movie
set)! -- it would have been virtually impossible to duplicate
this scene in such detail. Furthermore, GEN DuBose later
confirmed that there was indeed NO SWITCH.

AAER asked Bond to comment on the accepted belief that balloon
debris had been switched with the genuine UFO artifacts in later
photographs. Bond made the following statement to AAER on January
25, 1998. In his own words, Bond said, "These sort of errors are among those which I would like to correct if possible. Just for the record..."
