I found another classified memo that is related to the 1942 Battle of LA event. In this memo dated March 5, 1942, the then Secretary of Defense wrote to the then President that they have recovered an unidentified craft from the coast of California and that they have determined that it is of interplanetary origin:

Leto, I just followed this old link, and it no longer works. Here is the new one:

And here is the February memo from FDR referenced in the above document:

If these documents are indeed authentic (to which I have no direct knowledge) they would be very very persuasive evidence in this case.
Specific use of the term 'Celestial Devices' (referring to possible Atomic Energy secrets that might be learned from their study) and 'no conventional explanation', and 'unidentified plane' are identified in these reports.
In the March 5th, 1942 memo, the term 'interplanetary origin' is introduced.
Further in this memo, reports of the recovery of 2 'planes of likely interplanetary origin' is documented (one plane from the San Bernardino Mountains, likely shot down and reported by the Police, Military Gunners, and recovered by the Army and possibly the LA Fire Dept.) (The other plane was reported recovered off the Coast of California).
While direct verification of this memo is not possible for me independently, the reports discussed events that are found elsewhere in the documented record of the event itself (like the downed plane, and reports of seeing it go down...). It seems strange to me as an investigator, that reports like this (with seemingly no evidence like an actual downed craft in the public record) to back up the claim, seem to be the very same events reported on in this claimed declassified memo.
It seems we may have found some of the further reporting on these events, if these memos are indeed authentic.
The March 5th report, in addition to apparently ordering the creation of the IPU (Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit), also orders a full report on intelligence regarding IP going back to 1897. This researcher finds that year noteworthy due to this case:

The case detailed the account of the crash of a spaceship, complete with an Alien that survived for a short time, before being buried in the local Cemetery in Aurora Texas. It's one of the most interesting trace evidence cases in my view, since the records from Aurora seem to indicate that this case involved factual events. The newspaper reported the event at the time, and there is a real grave-marker in the Cemetery, although the trace evidence from the crash itself been removed, and the actual point of burial remains undisclosed.
The case incidentally followed national reports of an airship from across the United States, with period newspapers tracking sightings, confirming them, and plotting the airship's course.
Interesting reading to say the least. If anyone has any evidence to either support or invalidate the above posted memos, I would very much appreciate some links in the right direction.
Thanks very much ATS crew!

Edited to add a link to the Feb 22nd, 1944 Memo, which has been transposed online, and sent to the Roosevelt Library for verification of content and authenticity...
