Italy / Magenta 1933 Craft (alleged).
disputedcrash_retrievalSOF/JSOC UAP Retrieval Claim
Alleged 11 April 1933 crash near Magenta, Lombardy — promoted by Roberto Pinotti's 'Fascist UFO Files'; Grusch (2023) repeated a 'bell-like craft' + Vatican/OSS transfer to the U.S.
[DISPUTED] Would predate Roswell by 14 years. Documents are of contested provenance (possible forgery); no Italian historian confirms; no contemporary press. Skeptics note the ORIGINAL files contain no Pope and no bell-shaped craft — those (Pius XII back-channel, OSS 'scoop') are later accretions Grusch repeated. Earliest claimed link in the program lineage.
