Richard Weaver → Sheridan Cavitt
took his signed, sworn statement at his home on May 24, 1994
his inquiry took Cavitt's signed, sworn statement at his home on May 24, 1994
THE DOCUMENT IS IN THE PASSIVE VOICE and never says who was in the room. It gives the date, the place and the fact of a signed sworn statement; it does not say Weaver personally conducted it. Reworded to the inquiry rather than the man.
Richard Weaver → USAF Roswell Report (1994-97)
signed the 1994 Air Force report as director of the office that produced it
principal author of the 1994 Air Force report
The 1994 report is signed, not bylined, and never uses the word "author". "Principal author" was more than the signature could carry. — THEN: RESTORED THE SAME DAY, on a second document. AARO's 2024 historical report attributes the report to him directly - "by Col Richard L. Weaver" - and lists McAndrew's synopsis as a separate item, which is what "principal" was claiming. One document signs him; a second attributes authorship to him. Both are now cited.
