Comment from Jess Marcel Jr. on Nazi Bell show
I received this a while back, but I didn't want to post it until I was sure that I had permission from Mr. Marcel and he was on vacation:
I just saw the program on the Nazi Bell. One picture showed the bell with symbols written around the base. It appears the symbols were identical to the ones I saw on the Roswell Debris in 1947. Jess Marcel Jr.

Wow! "Appearing identical" to a medical doctor, a rated aviator, and a bird Colonel... That does seem to carry a cache of earnest significance, eh? Too -- this person who has in no way disgraced himself and been a nothing but a portrait of service to country... may have held starship pieces in his hands.
I trust Mr. Marcel. It's great to know this. Thank you very much Leslie.
The glyphs shown in UFO Hunters Episode 5 Season 3 are shown as a white on blue computer generated graphic during the "Riese" segment briefly and again in the segment where the Team visits Michael H Schratt in a hangar in Huntsville Alabama. While visiting Mr. Schratt a photo of a saucer marked USAF is shown for a few seconds, and the Bell is then shown as a line drawing with the symbols Mr. Marcel is likely referring to.
The provenances of the computer graphic, the saucer photo and the line drawing of the Bell are unknown to me at this time. I am aware of the markings on the "I-Beam" Mr. Marcel had both drawn and photos of the replica.
Similar saucer photos have been shown to be "for entertainment-speculative value", especially the one's showing saucers in front of the DFRC Hangar (Dryden) and the like. This can be demonstrated as required and has been demonstrated elsewhere.
The provenances of the line drawing and computer graphic (if those are what Mr. Marcel is referring to) would seem important if it were somehow discovered that the glyphs Mr. Marcel witnessed as "identical" are because his drawings and perhaps the replica "I-Beam" were the source for the artist of the computer graphic and line drawing and not independently generated from another source. To my best knowledge there never were any surviving known photos of the Bell, much less any surviving engineering drawings that have ever been released or leaked to the public.
Should it turn out that what Mr. Marcel has recognized as "identical" did not in some way come from his source drawing or replica then you really do have a "scoop". Always best to triple-check and independently verify just to make sure.
It could rebalance the Roswell worldview potentially. Well done, and good-on-you for waiting for Dr. Marcel to "green-light" publication.
Cheers,

I could be wrong, but what I remember of the show were the symbols from the Kecksburg object. Those are based on witness accounts and nothing to do with Jess Marcel's account of the Roswell i-beams. I think there was a connection made somehow that these symbols could or were also on the Bell, but I am not sure about that. Anyhow the symbols shown in the show were based on the Kecksberg object and not the i-beams from Roswell.
"Anyhow the symbols shown in the show were based on the Kecksberg object and not the i-beams from Roswell."
OK.Thanks Leslie. I will write Dr. Marcel for clarification. Cheers.
