====''The Truth About the UFO Crash at Roswell''==== In 1994, Randle and Schmitt authored another book, ''The Truth About the UFO Crash at Roswell'' which claimed a cargo plane delivered alien bodies to [[Dwight D. Eisenhower]].<ref>{{harvnb|Randle|Schmitt|1994}}</ref><ref name="Goldberg-2001-p199" /> The book abandoned the Barnett crash site on the Plains of San Agustin as lacking evidence and contradicting its "framework of the Roswell event".<ref>{{harvnb|Randle|Schmitt|1994|p=155}}</ref><ref>{{harvnb|Saler|Ziegler|Moore|1997|p=25}}</ref> Randle and Schmitt proposed a new crash site 35 miles north of Roswell, based on statements from Jim Ragsdale and Frank Kaufman.<ref>{{harvnb|Klass|1997b|pp=97, 109}}</ref> The book hid Kaufman's identity behind the pseudonym "Steve MacKenzie", but Kaufman appeared in the 1995 British television documentary ''The Roswell Incident'' using his real name.<ref>{{harvnb|Klass|1997b|p=108}}</ref> Kaufman claimed he monitored a UFO's path on radar and recovered debris from a crashed spaceship similar in shape to an [[Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk|F-117 stealth fighter]].<ref>{{harvnb|Klass|1997b|pp=107β108}}</ref> Kaufmann's statements did not match the personnel at the base, his service record, the radar technology available, or the known topography of the proposed crashed site.<ref>{{harvnb|Korff|1997|pp=97β98}}</ref> Jim Ragsdale claimed that while driving home along Highway 285 with his girlfriend Trudy Truelove, they watched a craft that was "narrow with a bat-like wing" crash.<ref>{{harvnb|Randle|Schmitt|1994|p=180}}</ref><ref>{{harvnb|Klass|1997b|p=99}}</ref> A later interview with Ragsdale clarified that his alleged crash site was nowhere near either the purported Barnett or Kaufman sites.<ref>{{harvnb|Klass|1997b|p=148}}</ref> In further interviews, Ragsdale's story grew to include bizarre details such as Ragsdale and Truelove removing eleven golden helmets from the alien craft to bury in the desert.<ref>{{harvnb|Korff|1997|p=100}}</ref>
