1.
(S/SK/WNINTEL)
The mission of the SUN STREAK Prototype
Operational Group (POG) remained dedicated to the application of
the psychoenergetic process of Remote Viewing (RV) as a Human
Intelligence (HUMINT) collection methodology to unilaterally
collect foreign intelligence information or, through appropriate
cuing, provide a basis for a sister discipline to prompt a
specific collection effort on behalf of the Department of Defense
(DOD) and other US intelligence community agencies when all other
systems have failed.
2.
( S/SK/WNINTEL)
The POG is comprised of professional
intelligence officers, a group of highly self-disciplined
personnel dedicated to the collection of foreign intelligence
through the application of unique methodology conducted under
strict, controlled conditions. The attached annual report
reflects the scope of this extensive effort with its perceived
highlights of accomplishments and attendant shortfalls.
3.
(S/SK/WNINTEL)
Efforts involving the penetration of
inaccessible targets in terms of persons, places, things, or
events, were normally successful. Remote viewing efforts
conducted to predict the occurrence or non-occurrence of future
events resulted in generally erratic and unreliable results.
Remote viewing efforts conducted to locate persons (hostages) or
things (documents) based on a known point of focus (operational
data) are to date, encouraging but not conclusive.
Efforts to
favorably resolve the basic issues of the so-called "search
problem" are ongoing.' Prototype taskers related to Military
Plans and Intentions and to Terrorism were drafted;
their
implementation remains to be scheduled for pursuance in a
training mode during the coming year.

and training activities are reflected in the following reports:

To date two
vacancies authorized by the current IDA and identified as a GS-
0132 OPT 13, and that of a US Army CPT, remain vacant. The
search for suitable candidates to fill the vacancies is ongoing.

( S/SK/WNINTEL)
During the reporting period, procedures were
established to cross-train all remote viewers in both modes of
remote viewing, specifically:
Coordinate Remote Viewing (CRV) ;
and, Extended Remote Viewing (ERV) .
The required training time
for a remote viewer to become operational was reduced from two
years to six months.

has completed Stage IV of
CRV training.
She will have completed Stage V and Stage VI of
her training by mid-February 1988. In mid-February 1988, Ms
will be trained in the ERV methodology.
Ms.
SG1J
an accomplished and experienced Extended Remote
Viewer, is in Stage III of CRV cross-training.
It is anticipated
that she will complete Stage IV of her training in late January.
During the reporting period, procedures requiring the preparation
of post session-summaries and the submission of sketches as
conceptual representations in support of remote viewing activity,
were established.
In an effort to instill self-confidence and
self-discipline, experienced remote viewers were encouraged to
conduct sessions without the assistance or presence of a monitor
or interviewer.
This form of independent remote viewing known as
"Solo Remote Viewing", has proven surprisingly successful to
date. The concept of "Solo Remote Viewing" will be pursued
during the coming year.
The results of Project 8717 reflect the
first operational effort where solo viewing was used in about
eight of the sixteen total number of sessions conducted.
The
results are encouraging; a high degree of correlation among
viewers surfaced during the course of these sessions against the
target.

4. (S/SK/WNINTEL)
An estimated
130 sessions conducted by six
viewers under a Utility Assessment known as Project "P", revealed
a near total inability to predict future events. Except for a
few and isolated, eye-catching successes, there was no evidence
of consistency or reliability in the results obtained from remote
viewing efforts conducted in a predictive mode. Remote Viewing
"the future" does not appear to be feasible or a marketable
aspect of this program at this time. However, a utility
assessment known as Project N-1 and conducted to determine a
remote viewer's ability to determine the substantial content of a
document stored at the DIAC, appeared successful. The ancillary
descriptions of the DIAC as the target storage site prompted the
levy of a second and similar task with the added facet of
attempting to determine the identity and location of the target
building where the document is stored. This activity is being
pursued under Project N-2.
If successful, POG may be gaining
meaningful insight on how to best resolve the issue of the so-
called "search problem. " Tenative taskers were established in an
effort to collect information related to enemy Plans and
Intentions and to International Terrorism as intelligence
targets. The perceived ideal tasker in such instances, requests
foreign intelligence information about individual (s) suspected of
a specific activity (ies)
within a given time window(s). Tasking
specificity may be the key element in this effort. Hopefully it
will provide the point of focus needed to determine an unknown
from known data.
5.
(S/SK/WNINTEL)
A training project is being established to
further test the feasibility and desirability of remote viewers
to remote view in a solo mode.
The training scenario provides
for remote viewers to view an event of historical and
intelligence significance. In response to direct tasking, each
remote viewer will be called upon to unilaterally remote view a
distinct facet of the target. Remote viewers will then
coordinate the results of their findings with other team members
in an effort to resolve the problems. Duplicative tasking will
be avoided as much as possible. Where one remote viewer will be
tasked to report on target personalities, a second will be tasked
against related political activities, a third against military
forces, etc. activity etc.

6.
(S/SK/WNINTEL)
The scope of the POG remote viewing effort
for 1987 is well documented. An effort to determine the results
of the effort in terms of accuracy and timeliness was
accomplished internally. The intelligence value and use of the
end product remains to be determined through the receipt of
intelligence evaluations prepared by requirement originators and
other intelligence community customers in response to tasking.

Project "P" is a utility assessment designed to determine a
remote viewer's ability and propensity to collect foreign
intelligence in a predictive mode.
A new protocol with built-in
feedback capabilities, was initiated in mid-June 1987 with the
consent and knowledge of the participants.
Target correlation in
both instances was weak and ranged from 13 to 18 percent.
