SLIDE @ OFF) The purpose of this briefing is to ‘provide you with background information concerning INSCOM's involvement in Project GRILL FLAME. This briefing is divided into three major portions. SLIDE 1 ON) 6 First, the history of INSCOM's involvement and the roles of DIA and INSCOM in the project. e Next, a discussion of remote viewing and examples of completed projects for which we received the requestor's evaluation. @ And, finally, a review of those projects which have been completed but not evaluated. SLIDE 1 OFF First the history of INSCOM's involvement. In the fall of -1978, ACSI tasked INSCOM to determine if parapsychology could be used to collect intelligence. For our purposes parapsychology is defined in two major categories: First, physical actions performed by mental powers that cannot be explained by known physical means. , This is known as telekgnesis or phychokénésis, and Second, perceptions which cannot be explained through known sensory means. This is known as ESP, telepathy and remote viewing. SLIDE 2 ON) Specifically, INSCOM"S tasking was to determine if Remote Viewing could be used as a collection.method. Remote Viewing . is defined, as the ability of an individual, to access information previously unknown, without regard to time, location, or any attempt. to hide the target from a collector. ~ SLIDE 2 OFF) To meet ACSI's tasking INSCOM established a project team under the Assistant Deputy Chief of Staff for Human Intelligence. The criteria developed to determine if remote viewing would be a viable collection method was as follows: SLIDE 3 ON First, could remote viewing be learned?) Next could remote viewing be applied as a collection method? And, finally, could remote viewng respond to collection requirements in a Approved ken&aleasaraids/09/09 : Se RPS epresnonrtoozs0008-s {

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. Fivey are described in the project book and are color coded for easy reference. They are: 1. Penetration of inaccessible targets (BLACK TAB) 2. ‘Science and technology information - (RED TAB) 3. Cuing of other intelligence collection SGC1 systems (YELLOW TAB) 4. Imminent hostilities (BLUE TAB) A At this time two categories: Penetration of inaccessible targets. And the cuing of other intelligence collection systeh. Dominate 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 SG1 detailed in tbe book are listed in the appendix. A At this point I would like to walk you through 2 of the examples in the book. The first, under TAB l, is project] ssid | Ist page containa the target, the asking and target cuing data. We were tasked by the NSC Staff in late 1979.
