The one fact about the people at Roswell AAF base was that it housed the only bomber group in the world that had dropped an atomic bomb, and the only group still , at that time, trained and equipped to do so. That would speak to the training, experience, and quality of the unit's personnel.

Still that does not provide proof. If anything it goes in the opposite direction. In the run up to dropping the bomb, the 509th had had to deal with leaks, security risks, and curious snoops. They developed both security measures and disinformation techniques. They would never have simply released details about a flying saucer. The level of classification would have been extraordinary. But they may have created a disinformation to cover something else, like the high altitude baloons being deployed to observe Soviet atomic tests.
