(S-ORCON) SCOPE OF TARGETS FOR REMOTE VIEWING “AMSAA sponsored RV will exclude US, allied, or neutral na- tion's citizens as targets. 9. (S-ORCON) PERFORMING ORGANIZATION AMSAA is the performing organization. t 10. (S-ORCON) PROJECTED MAXIMUM NUMBER OF REMOTE VIEWERS AND INTERVIEWERS 2 active duty military, assigned to AMSAA (officers) 8 DA civilians (GS 12 and above) assigned to AMSAA: 3 AMSAA civilian consultants (retired general officer) Persons involved will be principally either remote viewers or interviewers, but there may be some exchange of roles. 11. (S-ORCON) SELECTION OF REMOTE VIEWERS AND INTERVIEWERS A number of AMSAA personnel were introduced to the RV phenomena by a guest speaker presentation on the subject. Following this initial introduction, others became familiar with the phenomena through the circulation of open literature publications on RV. Discussions about the military applications of RV phenomena by interested analysts re- sulted in a decision by AMSAA management to seek establishment of a program to define the military utility of the process. Individuals who had previously shown an interest in the potential application of the RV process were invited to participate as a remote viewer or interviewer. Individuals desiring to participate in these tasks were accepted. Other individuals selected after the initial participants were identified were given an orientation on the phenomena and asked to read published materials on RV. After a familiarization with the RV process and procedures, individuals were asked if they would. be willing to partici- pate as a remote viewer or interviewer. Only those individuals who indicated a positive desire to participate were accepted. 12. (S-ORCON) REPLICATION OF THE RV. PROCESS It is proposed to conduct up to 25 RV sessions per month. Three principal RV procedures have been described: one uses map coordinates, one uses a beacon individual (introduced to the remote viewer) and a third uses a beacon individual (not introduced to the remote reviewer). It is our goal to have each person participating as a i? Approved For Release 2001/04 R002000240040-1

The minimum time required to achieve this goal at the rate of about 25 RV sessions a month is 6 months. Realistically, participants Will not be available from other duties on such an intensive basis. Therefore, we project at least 10 months to accomplish this number of RY sessions, For each participant, the maximum number of RV sessions will be 2 per day and no more than 3 per week. ; 13. (S-ORCON) JUDGING The recorded RV images are independently evaluated by one or more judges in the following manner to semi-quantitatively determine the appropriateness of the RV results to the intended remote targets. 1. Determine the principle form concepts (PC) stated in the images recorded in each RV session transcript. 2. At each target site judge the appropriateness, on a scale of 0 to 10, of each PC of each transcript. 3. Calculate the mean and variance of all the judged PCs of each RV session for each target. 4. Rank the appropriateness of each RV session for each target using the calculated mean values. 5. Review the appropriateness of each ranking utilizing any drawings or sketches to determine a final judged rank ordering of each RV session with each target. 14, (S-ORCON) CONFIDENTIALITY Individuals performing as remote viewers and interviewers under the AMSAA GRILL FLAME programs will not be identified outside of their parent organization without their prior consent and they will be referred to in project records only by an alpha-numeric designator. Products of remote viewers and interviews such as tapes, drawings, transcripts, rosters, or other materials which might reveal the identity of the remote viewer will be coded to assure the protection of their identity. b Approved For Release 2001/04/02, ClAsmaReeOOPEETR002000240040-1

(S-ORCON) PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT ; ‘RV sessions will be conducted in an ordinary room at ambient - temperature and humdity during the normal waking hours of the partici- pants. The only limitations on these parameters will be security from electronic eavesdropping and elimination of ordinary distracting noises such as a radio and office machinery.
