PAUSE
+03
#01:
Small room with. . uh .. sheers ..
.like curtains ... sheer-like
curtains. Very bright room.
Some kind of plants on the
windowaill.
Like a bedroom.
It's very light plaster and the
walls like a beige or a tan color ... plaster. Get a, get
impression of a high window ... probably 2-stories, even higher.
Maybe 3 stories. Without the window you could see the tops
of a row of trees.
PAUSE
+05
There's a long hallway outside of the room. It's a very ornate
hallway ... like .. uh .. it's paneled in wood ... not quite all the
way up, but halfway it's paneled in wood. It's a heavy brown
door with numbers. Silver numbers.
PAUSE
You have to hold on a minute. I'm getting alot of
PAUSE

#01:
Seen the corner of like a dormitory type building. 3-stories
with a golden stone type structure. It's a very plain building
from the corner. I'm looking up the corner. See a heavy tile
type roof. Hip (phonetic) roof. Old fashioned windows.
It's like I'm looking up from a row of trees, and ... uh ...
there's a row of rooms there, which he is in one.
There's
more hostages. Perhaps ... uh ... 4 or 5 more hostages. There's
nobody else in his room, although I get the impression that
there was. There used to be somebody else in his room. There's
... uh ... I can't get an easy picture of where the other hostages
is, but I keep seeing ... uh. .. Colonel Holland's picture. Keep
seeing Holland. I think he might be in that group.
I also get
a distinct feeling that standing under the trees I'm ... um ...
I think I'm looking up the main building .... main Embassy building.
+12
Get a feeling I'm standing in a range of fire, for some reason.
Like a .. uh .. mapped out fire area. I don't know how to explain
that. Like ... it's like an area I wouldn't want to walk around
in. That's all you're going to get. I've got alot of problem
with noise here, today.
#14:
This session is being cancelled at this time due to people
out in the hallways, banging, clanging, shucking and jiving
and bullshitting, and the whole thing.
#01:
I think, I think the impression I'm getting in front of the
building might be valid, but. ... I don't know.
#14:
End of session. Ready for debrief. We're now ready for debrief.
#01:
Ok. On page 1 I want to draw the exterior of the building
first because I think that was the most valid impression that
I had. I had the feeling like I was standing under some trees
looking at the corner of a building.
This being the end of
the building. Then I went off into the distance down to the
left. I got the impression like I was looking at a hip type
roof that was tiles. . They were bake red tile. And that there
was ... uh ... 3 floors and windows that went off down the side.
I guess maybe that's where I got the impression that I was
looking at the main building. Like a very old, formal building.
And, I got the feeling like this room with a star is probably
room that he was in.
There was corner stones like design pattern down the corner
of this building. You know, like more roughly cut stones sitting
in a stucco type finish. This finish was a yellow, sort of a
light brown stucco.
Windows on the end of the building ..
2 sets. And, I got the feeling like there was trees .... like here,
going down the side. And, the. . uh. . front was around the other
side. I got the feeling that out of that row of top floor
windows ... 5 or 6 windows ... that Holland was in one of the other
rooms, but I wasn't getting a clear impression of hostages
because of all the noise. Uh ..... I got an impression of sheer

CORLT
curtains in the window, and plants on the windowsill.
Light tan color to the room.
The interior hallway, I got an
impression of looking down a long hall which had like
wainscoting going down both sides ... wood paneling. With
like a very formal panel ceiling.
Maybe some exposed beams,
but, you know, a very rich look to it. And, this hallway just
went all the way ... . you know .. . down like this.
That kind of
affect, and there was doors on the left side where these rooms
were. That kind of thing.
That's really about it. Oh!
I
got a feeling that looking down on the building I was trying to
get a feel for security and guards and everything, like you
asked me to and the only thing I can say that empacted on me
was looking down on the building, as you look at that end of
the building, I got an impression of a gravel area, like this,
and this row of trees, and then there was like a road or some-
thing here, and grass, and I was standing like where the star
is in the circle here. I had the feeling that if I stood there
I would be right in area fire. You know. Like this area is
real, real ... a place you wouldn't want to walk around in.
#14:
Ok.
You described ... uh. .. heavy brown door with silver
numbers.
#01:
Yeah. That's one of the hallway.
#14:
Ok. Were you able to perceive any of these numbers?
#01:
Uh ... I felt like I was on the third floor, but I got a real
distinct impression that the numbers all started with 2, in
this hallway, which is really weird, and they were all odd
numbers. Like 21, 23, 27, 29, 25. That sort of thing.
And, that's all I got as far as numbers. No specific number
for that door, just
11
#14:
You also ..... in my notes
.that I took here, very sketchy
but, I wrote down 3 stories, golden dome, tile roof.
#01:
Yeah. I don't understand that phraseology, but that's what
I was seeing.
#14:
Ok.
So somewhere intermixed with all this was a golden dome.
#01:
Type affect .... yeah ..... I don't know if's inside or outside.
I just had to say golden dome affect. Golden dome, golden.
Uh ... the finish on the building was a golden color. Like ..
.. golden stone I might have said instead of dome. I might have
meant stone.
It's a golden hue, I think, to the building.
I don't know whatelse to tell you.
I had a ... it's a very bad
session. All the noise. That's the best I could come out
with.
#14:
Ok.
I have no further questions.
We'll end the session at
this time.
