The following is a translation of a 1947 newspaper article that captures the testimony of WW Brazel about the discovery of the flying saucer debris and their description.

Roswell Daily Chronicle, July 9, 1947

W. Brazel, a 48-year-old Lincoln County farmer who lives less than 50 miles southeast of Corona, today shared his story of finding what the military described as a flying disc, but the publicity he found forced him to deliver, that if he ever found anything other than a bomb, he wouldn't say anything about it.

Brazela was brought here last afternoon by WE Whitmore from KGFL radio station, he took a picture and Record and Jason Kellahin interviewed him. He was sent here from the Associated Press office in Albuquerque to tell us about the event. The photo he posed for was sent to the AP of a telephoto wireframe machine specially prepared in the office of Record RD by Adair, the lead telegraphist of the AP, who was sent here just to get this photo as well as a photo of Sheriff George Wilcox.
Brazel testified that on June 14 he and his eight-year-old son Vernon were about 12-13 km away from JB Foster's ranch house, which he managed when they encountered a large area covered with debris composed of strips of rubber, aluminum foil and stiff pieces of paper and sticks. At that time Brazel hurried to finish his inspection and pay little attention to it. But he made a note of what he saw and on July 4 he went back to his place with his wife, Vernon and daughter Betty (14), and collected a lot of debris.

The next day he heard about flying discs for the first time and began to think that what he found might be a remnant of one of them.
On Monday he came to the city to sell some wave, and while he was there, he went to Sheriff George Wilcox and "whispered to him as if it were secret" that he might have found a flying disc.
Wilcox teamed up with Roswell Air Force Base and maj. Jesse A. Marcel and the man in plain clothes escorted him home, where they collected the rest of the 'disk' pieces and walked into his house to try and reconstruct the object.

According to Brazel, they simply could not refold it at all. They tried to make it a kite, but they failed and couldn't figure out how to put it together to fit it. Then Major Marcel had the debris transferred to Roswell, and that was the last time he had heard of it. Until he said he'd found a flying disc.
Brazel said he hadn't seen them fall from the sky and had seen them before they were spread, so he didn't know the original size or shape the object might have, but he thought it might be about the size of a table top. The balloon that brought it up, if it was the way it worked, had to be about 3,5 tall, at least that was the size of the room he was sitting in. The color of the rubber was smoky gray and scattered around 180 meters.
When the debris was collected, the foil, paper and sticks formed a bundle about 1 m long and about 18-20 cm thick, and the rubber formed a bundle 45-50 cm long and 20 cm thick. All this would, according to his estimate, weigh about 2,5 kg. There was no trace of metal in the area that could be applied to the engine and no sign of any propulsion systems, although at least one piece of paper was stuck to a piece of film. No words were written on this unit, although letters were written on some parts. A considerable amount of adhesive tape and ribbon with printed flowers were used for its construction. No cords or wires were found, but there were eyelets in the paper, indicating that there was some kind of attachment. Brazel said he had found two meteorological balloons on the ranch before, but what he found this time was far from reminiscent.
"I am sure that what I found was not a meteorological balloon," he said. "But if I find anything other than a bomb, they'll have a pretty tough job of making me say anything about it."
