A source-supported case records an observation dated July 6, 1990, in Caorches-Saint-Nicolas involving a crater discovered in a field and subsequent recovery of sheet-metal fragments. Investigation and laboratory examination identified the event as a probable underground explosion of a 250 kg British or American incendiary bomb from the Second World War. The case was classified A by the source.

Visitor Transmission // AlienBox editorial layer
On 6 July 1990, in Caorches-Saint-Nicolas, your GEIPAN/CNES archive recorded a crater in a field and the recovery of sheet-metal fragments. Twenty-five fragments were recovered at various depths; laboratory examination and reconstruction led the investigation to classify the event as a probable underground explosion involving a 250 kg British or American incendiary bomb from the Second World War. We were present as observers only. We did not cause the crater. Our attendance was observational, not contractual. Gorkon Outpost has filed the paperwork.
Fred // Earth Records Liaison // AlienBox editorial layer
A crater, buried fragments, laboratory examination, and a probable Second World War incendiary bomb: this is what a Classification A record looks like when the label on the box finally matches the contents. The initial meteorite hypothesis was investigated and discarded; no extraterrestrial conclusion is required, despite the usual enthusiasm for making one appear by paperwork.
Off the Earth Record, the Visitors were observers only—not the cause, and certainly not an identification of anything in the human record. Zarnok Vell once turned a Gorkon supply-cart run into a hallway race, then spent a week claiming the dented door had always looked that way. He apologized with Sublight Lager. The door remained unconvinced.

Why Fred Thinks This Case Matters
AlienBox comparative analysis from structured Earth Record fields // not a new source // not a change in evidence grade
Fred keeps this file near the top of the pile because the source also supplies a published resolution to compare against the original report. That combination makes the case useful for cross-archive comparison without changing its evidence grade.
The source record includes a published resolution field. AlienBox treats it as an attributed source assessment to compare with the original report, not as an AlienBox verdict.
What strengthens the record
1 linked source document provide provenance for the Earth Record.
10 claim citations tie extracted statements back to source excerpts or locators.
Recorded evidence context: Physical Trace, Crater, Recovered Metal Fragments, and Laboratory Examination.
The source record includes a published resolution: Probable underground explosion of a 250 kg British or American incendiary bomb dating from the Second World War.
What limits the record
No sensor type is recorded in the structured Earth Record.
The structured record does not establish multiple independent observers.
The current dossier is anchored to one source network rather than independent source networks.
What would help resolve it
Can the originating record establish an exact number of observers and whether their observations were independent?
Did any radar, infrared, optical, telemetry, or other instrument record the event, and is that material preserved?
Can the source establish a usable duration for the observation rather than only a date or narrative sequence?

// [[T0001]] Case details
The case summary describes a crater in a field followed by the discovery of sheet-metal fragments, and identifies a probable explosion of an incendiary bomb from the last war as the explanation.
The crater was 14 meters in diameter, with a collapsed earth rim approximately 2.5 meters wide and a central tumulus measuring 4.5 meters by 1.5 meters in height.
Twenty-five metal fragments were recovered at various depths, ruling out the meteorite hypothesis in favor of a probable underground explosion of a bomb dating from the Second World War.
“Twenty-five metal fragments were recovered in this way, ruling out the hypothesis of a meteorite fall in favor of the probable underground explosion of a bomb dating from the Second World War.”
“Reconstruction of the device in fact made it possible to identify a 250 kg incendiary bomb of British or American origin, probably manufactured in April 1942.”
