IT
IS INEXPENSIVE
The principal cost
of remote viewing collection
is the
people involved.
There is no expensive hardware,
and
lastly,
THERE
IS NO KNOWN DEFENSE.
Time,
target size,
or degree
of difficulty all have no apparent
effect
on collection
by remote viewing.
Even conceptualized
plans have been collected against prior to their actual
implementation.

Remote viewing has been successfully used against seven
categories of tasking.
Liveware described in the project
book and are color coded for easy reference.
They are:

At this time two categories:
Penetration of inaccessible targets.
And the cuing of other intelligence collection

There are two additional categories which we believe to be
equally important,
but
for which the data base
is
insufficient.
They are human source assessments and accurate
personality profiles.
Each example
in the book presents the actual target, the
reason for targeting,
and the targeting
data.
Examples of
verbatim viewer descriptions are provided,
with the analytic
comments to the right.
In all cases,
these comments were made by
intelligence analysts.
Additional projects which are not

This briefing has covered
the history of INSCOM and the
GRILL FLAME program.
How. we began
in the program,
and
some of the-actions we have begun to improve our product.
Our objectives for the future concern:
•
Selection of people.
We are working to develop
a method
of recurring recruitment,
and
in coordination
with the staff psychologist,
revalidate the initial
screening criteria used.
Next,
•
Increase the reliability of remote viewing.
We are
studying how to implement the SRI report on audio
'
analysis.
The staff psychologist
is assisting us
by working
on individual remote viewer profiles
and locating places where enhanced individual training
could be received.
And we also wish to evaluate the
new SRI Training program,
since they indicate
it
will decrease tendencies of
a remote viewer to
analyze rather than just report,
increase the quality
and reliability
of remote viewing and provide some
predictive value about the remote viewing product.
In summary:
Remote viewing has demonstrated it
is
of value and has a
high rate
of success.
Remote viewing should never stand alone,
but should be used in conjunction with information from other
intelligence
sources.
We do not evaluate our product.
All
evaluations are done by the professional intelligence analysts
who assign the project.
Collection of intelligence through
remote viewing
is not an experiment.
It
is
a successful
collection method.
The j&rmy effort
is not research and development,
it
is operational collection.
Remote viewing
is passive,
inexpensive,
there
is no defense and there
is no risk of
of collection compromise.
This concludes the briefing.
Are there any questions?
