WILLIAM BRAZEL JR.
(F&B) “One of the pieces looked like] something on the order of tinfoil, except that [it] wouldn’t tear.... You could wrinkle it and lay it back down and it immediately resumed its original shape... quite pliable, but you couldn’t crease or bend it like ordinary metal. Almost like a plastic, but definitely metallic. Dad once said that the Army had once told him it was not anything made by us.”
“...a little piece of — it wasn’t tinfoil, it wasn’t lead foil — a piece about the size of my finger. ...The only reason I noticed the tinfoil (I’m gonna call it tinfoil), I picked this stuff up and put it in my chaps pocket. Might be two or three days or a week before I took it out and put it in a cigar box. I happened to notice when I put that piece of foil in that box, and the damn thing just started unfolding and just flattened out. Then I got to playing with it. I’d fold it, crease it, lay it down and it’d unfold. It’s kinda weird. I couldn’t tear it. The color was in between tinfoil and lead foil, about the [thickness] of lead foil.”
Maybe this is the ultimate source of all the stories of miraculous Unobtainium that I've heard all my life?
Did you keep it all these years?
Interesting thread . . . for some.
FREEPER JesseAM may have some comments. He handled the material before the military got their hands on it.
The headline sounds good. I doubt any naysayers will be convinced.
They have to be castrated by a UFO landing in their laps before believing.
