But the central component of the new inquiry is a diary, which Marcel supposedly kept during the time of the Roswell crash, and which is now in the possession of his grandchildren. Decades after the event, Marcel told an interviewer that he believed the object that crashed in the New Mexico desert had extraterrestrial origins, Time reported in 1997. Analysis of the diary — and translation of its cryptic language — could reveal coded messages that Marcel wrote about the crash at the time that it happened, Smith said.

Roswell: The First Witness uses new advanced technologies, behind the mysterious 1947 Roswell, NM crash. The series follows the grandchildren of Major Jesse Marcel, the first person to investigate the wreckage. The investigation is being led by Ben Smith, a former CIA operative. The family believes Major Marcel was forced by the U.S. government to deny he ever saw a UFO. They possess Major Marcel's diary, believed to contain coded clues about the truth of what happened at Roswell and clues and new evidence to where the alien wreckage might still lie buried.

If there was anything really interesting then the mainstream media would have picked it up. So I say this will be a History Channel series akin to other we've had before. Pure entertainment based around folklore and legends.
He says he's sure the material wasn't from Earth, in that video. We also have an affidavit from Irving Newton that Marcel tried to convince him that the debris had alien writing on it. Newton wasn't convinced it was alien, he thought they were just nonsense designs (like remnants from decorative tape that a toy maker might have used, and it was a toy maker who was contracted to make the radar reflectors). We also have Jesse's son saying his father told him he thought it was alien.

So I seriously doubt this diary contains anything of substance. Coded messages?
Here is the original In Search Of episode concerning Roswell with Marcel in his own words.
I think the History channel was once about history, but they do seem to have gotten away from that and do seem to air some nonsensical shows.

You should read page199
The tale of the tape. It came from a New York manufacturer not outer space.
