Land is hard and soft. Terrain is very rugged. Lots of sand, bushes and some small trees. A small mountain or a large hill wraps around site perhaps three quarters of the way. Area reminds me of South-eastern Arizonia, "Apache country." There are abandoned low structures here which are delapidating. Structures are made of natural material; stone and like adobe. There is an abandoned landing strip here. Area has the feel of an abandonded "Company Town." Area is away from everything . I get the feeling of a town in the distance. Lights of town are probably visible from the crest of the hill. It is a dark star lite night. It is breezy and cool (probably pleasant). 2. There are fresh smells here. Also gasoline smells and the most powerful smell is of exhaust fumes. There are vehicle noises here. A large group of men is gathered here (possibly 300 to 500 but hard to Say). There are temporary structures scattered about. The primary color of clothing is kaki but it is not really military uniforms. Some have short sleaves and some may be wearing short pants. I guess semi-uniform is the best word. Some of the men have bandalers accross their bodies. Men look like mexicans. There are military vehicles here. Jeeps, Lorries and vehicles with very large rubber tires. There are also possibly a few tanks here. Tanks are modern and are gray in color. Camoflouge netting is in use through-out the area and appears to be very effective. Camoflouge netting has green side up. Men are armed. There are automatic weapons in the hills above the assembly area. There is also something in the hills which may be a temporary radar (NFI). I am not sure but I believe this area is recieving supplies via helicopters which come in occassionaly. 3. There is a very intense feeling here. It is bleek and somber. Men have a common purpose. There is low key confussion here. Men are "Simpatico". Men are "Macho." There is a lot of loyality to each other in this group. Men are %, closer to each other than to anything else. Men are concerned with the reality of things not with abstract concepts. I get the feeling that these are "the good guys." People are organized. They have been waiting here for awhile. They are awaiting a "word" or a "signal" to move. Most of the men do not know where they are going but they know they will move in mass to a city. The nature of their mission is not known. This is a very emotional place here. Very intense. There is a lot of excitement and some conflicting emotions here. The motor oil smells and the adrenalin smells blend together. These men are on alert. They are angry, ancious and at loose ends. When I ask about purpose I get an aliful lot of emotion and feelings such as revenge and renewal. There is a feeling among many of the men of "at last." There is a sense of resignation and also of relief. There is a conspricy feeling here. There are contour maps here of relatively small areas. Maps are laid out on like field tables. Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00789R000100190006-5
