I have been doing more research and I have found some more potentially fascinating evidence that seems show that CIC agents were directly involved in
the Balloon Cover Operation.
David Rudiak's research is a must read!
How the Military Debunked the Saucers After Roswell
Although many are familiar with the photos of the balloon and radar target in Gen. Ramey's office at Fort Worth, Texas, few are aware of other
military-related demonstrations that followed immediately afterwards. Weather balloons and assorted paraphernalia, particularly radar targets, were
trotted out as the explanation for the nationwide flying saucer reports. In retrospect, these demonstrations were clearly part of the "concentrated
campaign to stop the rumors."
The follow-up debunking campaign using weather balloons was suggested in the last line of the Ramey message. The end of the Ramey message reads very
close to the following:
....AT ROSWELL. ASSURE
THAT CIC/TEAM SAID THIS MISSTATE MEANING OF STORY AND THINK
LATE TODAY NEXT SENT OUT PR OF WEATHER BALLOONS WOULD FARE
BETTER IF THEY ADD LAND DEMORAWIN CREWS.
Look at some of the links to counter intelligence and the personalities involved!

They key here is that they speculate... there is nothing to
confirm that. Has anyone attempted to check his record to find
out if he had the real training in CI?

You'll see that Cpt. Lawrence H. Dyvad is pictured in the July 9, 1947 Balloon demonstration for the Press at Alamogordo, NM.
There is evidence that Cpt. Lawrence H. Dyvad ( Alamogordo , NM balloon launch for the Press July 9, 1947 ) is an Intelligence officer along with Maj.
Edward Doty. See the July 11 , 1951 document at the bottom of the page here

Report.

Concerning the initial announcement, "RAAF Captures Flying Disc," research failed to locate any documented evidence as to why that statement was
made. However, on July 10, 1947, following the Ramey press conference, the Alamogordo News published an article with photographs demonstrating
multiple balloons and targets at the same location as the NYU group operated from at Alamogordo AAF. Professor Moore expressed surprise at seeing this
since his, was the only balloon test group in the area. He stated, "It appears that there was some type of umbrella cover story to protect our work
with Mogul "
Also notice that Maj. Edward Doty replaces Col. Albert Trakowski as Mogul Project Officer.
Maj. Edward Doty happens to be the Uncle of the by now infamous Rick Doty.
Note that Dr. Charles Moore and Col. Albert Trakowski are key to the Air Force Roswell report , MOGUL Balloon explanation.
Remember Col. Albert Trakowski is Maj. Edward Doty's predecessor.

The interview with Colonel Trakowski (Atch 23-24) also proved valuable information. Trakowski provided specific details on Project Mogul and described
how the security for the program was set up, as he was formerly the TOP SECRET Control Officer for the program. He further related that many of the
original radar targets that were produced around the end of World War II were fabricated by toy or novelty companies using a purplish-pink tape
with flower and heart symbols on it. Trakowski also recounted a conversation that he had with his friend, and superior military officer in his
chain of command, Colonel Marcellus Duffy, in July, 1947. Duffy, formerly had Trakowski's position on Mogul, but had subsequently been transferred
to Wright Field. He stated: ."..Colonel Duffy called me on the telephone from Wright Field and gave me a story about a fellow that had come in from
New Mexico, woke him up in the middle of the night or some such thing with a handful of debris, and wanted him, Colonel Duffy, to identify it. ... He
just said 'it sure looks like some of the stuff you've been launching at Alamogordo and he described it, and I said 'yes, I think it is.'
Certainly Colonel Duffy knew enough about radar targets, radiosondes, balloon-borne weather devices. He was intimately familiar with all that
apparatus."
Colonel Trakowski recounts for Air Force investigators that Colonel Duffy called him from Wright Field.
Why would Colonel Duffy , at Wright Field , be bothered by a guy who found a RAWIN target in New Mexico when they had been popping up for days just
miles from Wright Field?
Or why would a cover for MOGUL Balloons be staged at the staging area for MOGUL Balloon launches?
