Information presented in the briefing seemed to be accepted by
the attendees. Examples in the project book stimulated some general
questions all of which were answered.
4. (S/NOFORN) At the conclusion of the briefing LT Gen Faurer stated
that his scientific panel had reviewed parapsychology in the past.
Another review would be undertaken with three options: cease all interest,
pursue, the subject within the agency or join the DoD community. LT Gen Faurer
indicated he would inform BG Strom when a final decision had been made.

I AM LTC JACHIM, PROJECT MANAGER FOR THE INSCOM PORTION
OF DOD PROJECT GRILL FLAME.
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 Ø OFF)
(SLIDE 1 ON)
FIRST, THE HISTORY OF INSCOM'S INVOLVEMENT AND THE
ROLES OF DIA AND INSCOM IN THE PROJECT,
NEXT, A DISCUSSION OF REMOTE VIEWING AND EXAMPLES OF
COMPLETED PROJECTS FOR WHICH WE HAVE RECEIVED THE
REQUESTOR'S EVALUATION.
AND, FINALLY, A REVIEW OF TWO PROJECTS WHICH HAVE
BEEN COMPLETED BUT NOT EVALUATED.

FIRST THE HISTORY OF INSCOM'S INVOLVEMENT. İN 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:
(SLIDE 2A ON)
FIRST, PHYSICAL ACTIONS PERFORMED BY MENTAL POWERS
THAT CANNOT BE EXPLAINED BY KNOWN PHYSICAL MEANS.
THIS IS KNOWN AS TELEKINESIS OR PSYCHOKINESIS, AND
SECOND, PERCEPTIONS WHICH CANNOT BE EXPLAINED THROUGH
KNOWN SENSORY MEANS, THIS IS KNOWN AS ESP, TELEPATHY
AND REMOTE VIEWING,
(SLIDE 2A OFF)
(SLIDE 2B 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,

PROJECT TEAM UNDER THE ASSISTANT DEPUTY CHIEF OF
STAFF FOR HUMAN INTELLIGENCE, THE CRITERIA DEVELOPED

TO DETERMINE IF REMOTE VIEWING WOULD BE A VIABLE
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 VIEWING RESPOND TO COLLECTION
REQUIREMENTS IN A TIMELY MANNER?
(SLIDE 3 OFF)
(SLIDE 3A ON)
FIRST, COULD REMOTE VIEWING BE LEARNED:
SRI INTERNATIONAL, AN ACKNOWLEDGED LEADER IN, THE
FIELD OF PARANORMAL RESEARCH, RELIED UPON ESTABLISHED
PSYCHICS, WHO USED THEIR INDIVIDUAL ABILITIES TO
REMOTE VIEW. INSCOM, USING THE PERSONALITY TRAITS
AND CHARACTERISTICS COMPILED BY SRI DURING THEIR WORK
WITH THESE PSYCHICS, SCREENED APPROXIMATELY 250
INTELLIGENCE PERSONNEL WITHIN THE BALTIMORE/WASHINGTON
AREA, LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR CHARACTERISTICS.
BASED ON SRI OBSERVATIONS, SUCCESSFUL REMOTE VIEWERS
TEND TO BE CONFIDENT, OUTGOING, ADVENTUROUS,
BROADLY SUCCESSFUL INDIVIDUALS WITH SOME ARTISTIC
BENT. AFTER A SERIES OF SCREENINGS AND INTERVIEWS,
NINE PEOPLE WERE SELECTED, THEY WERE A MIXTURE OF
MILITARY AND CIVILIAN, OFFICERS AND ENLISTED, MEN
AND WOMEN. AFTER ADDITIONAL INTERVIEWS WITH THE SRI

COULD REMOTE VIEWING BE APPLIED AS A COLLECTION
METHOD? IF SO, WOULD THE INFORMATION BE OF REASONABLE
ACCURACY AND ACCEPTED AND USED BY THE INTELLIGENCE
ANALYST WHO RECEIVE THE PRODUCT. FINALLY, COULD
,
REMOTE VIEWING RESPOND TO COLLECTION REQUIREMENTS IN
A TIMELY MANNER?
(SLIDE 5 OFF)
(SLIDE 5A ON)
WORK TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS WAS OVERCOME BY EVENTS.
IN SEPTEMBER 1979, ACSI TASKED INSCOM TO LOCATE A
MISSING NAVY AIRCRAFT
THE ONLY INFORMATION
PROVIDED WAS A PICTURE OF THE TYPE AIRCRAFT MISSING
AND THE NAMES OF THE CREW. WHERE THE AIRCRAFT WAS
OPERATING WAS NOT DISCLOSED. ON 4 SEPTEMBER 1979,
THE FIRST OPERATIONAL REMOTE VIEWING SESSION TOOK PLACE.
IN THIS INITIAL SESSION, THE REMOTE VIEWER PLACED THE
AIRCRAFT TO WITHIN 15 MILES OF WHERE IT WAS ACTUALLY
LOCATED, BASED ON THESE RESULTS, INSCOM WAS TASKED
TO WORK AGAINST ADDITIONAL OPERATIONAL TARGETS.
THESE TASKINGS FORCED A PREMATURE HALT TO THE INITIAL
TRAINING PHASE. IN DECEMBER 1979, THE PROJECT WAS
COMMITTED TO OPERATIONS

THE BACKGROUND OF INSCOM AND THE GRILL FLAME PROJECT
WOULD BE INCOMPLETE WITHOUT EXAMINING THE DIFFERENT ROLE
PAUSE
OF DIA AND INSCOM, SINCE THERE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN
SOME BLURRING OF THESE DISTINCTIONS IN THE PAST.
(SLIDE 6 ON)
DIA IS CONCERNED WITH:
.
ASSESSING THE THREAT, PRINCIPALLY FROM THE
SOVIET UNION AND CHINA.
.
DETERMINING COUNTERMEASURES TO ANY U.S. VULNERABILITI
AND, DETERMINING THE POTENTIAL OF REMOTE VIEWING
USING ESTABLISHED PSYCHICS.
DIA PERFORMS THIS FUNCTION PRIMARILY THROUGH CONTRACTS
-
AT SRI.

INSCOM IS APPLYING REMOTE VIEWING TO ASSIST IN ITS
PROSE
EVALUATION AS A COLLECTION METHOD, AND TO DETERMINE
...
IF REMOTE VIEWING CAN BE LEARNED BY PROFESSIONAL
INTELLIGENCE PERSONNEL WHO ARE NOT ESTABLISHED
PSYCHICS,
OUR REMOTE VIEWING COLLECTION IS DONE WITH ASSIGNED
PERSONNEL. WE CONTRACT ONLY FOR SPECIFIC ITEMS
WHICH ENHANCE OUR COLLECTION, FOR EXAMPLE:
. WHICH TARGETING METHODS HAVE THE HIGHEST
PROBABILITY OF SUCCESS.

CAN THE ACCURACY OF A REMOTE VIEWER BE DETERMINED
FROM AN ANALYSIS OF HIS STATEMENTS?
CAN THE SRI NEW TRAINING TECHNIQUE INCREASE THE
QUALITY AND RELIABILITY OF COLLECTION.

THE NEXT PORTION COVERS THE ANATOMY OF A COLLECTION PROJECT
AND PRESENTS EXAMPLES OF RESULTS FROM COMPLETED PROJECTS,
(SLIDE 6A ON)
TYPICALLY, A PROJECT BEGINS WITH A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ON A
TARGET, WHICH IS NOT SUSCEPTIBLE TO NORMAL COLLECTION SYSTEMS, OR
FOR CUING DATA TO TARGET OTHER INTELLIGENCE SYSTEMS.
BASED UPON PERSONNEL AVAILABLE, PRIORITY OF THE TARGET, AND THE
POTENTIAL FOR PROVIDING REQUESTED INFORMATION, THE INSCOM PROJECT
MANAGER MAKES A DECISION WHETHER TO ACCEPT OR DECLINE THE PROJECT.
MANY TIMES, EVEN THOUGH THE LIKELIHOOD OF OBTAINING THE INFORMATION
IS NOT HIGH, THE PROJECT IS ACCEPTED SINCE NO OTHER INTELLIGENCE
SOURCE HAD BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE THE NEEDED INFORMATION. ONCE THE
,
PROJECT IS ACCEPTED, THE FIRST TASK IS THE CONSTRUCTION OF A REMOTE
VIEWING COLLECTION PLAN.
(SLIDE 6A OFF)
(SLIDE 7 ON)
THIS COLLECTION PLAN LISTS THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF INFORMATION
(EEI) AND THE INTELLIGENCE INDICATORS WHICH WILL ADDRESS THESE EEI.
ALSO LISTED ARE THE TARGET TIME WINDOWS FOR WHICH THESE INDICATORS
WILL BE RELEVANT. THE COLLECTION PLAN ALSO SPECIFIES WHICH REMOTE
VIEWERS WILL BE USED.
(SLIDE TOFF)
(SLIDE 8 ON)
THERE MAY BE MORE THAN ONE SESSION FOR A PARTICULAR PROJECT, SEVERAL
SESSIONS MAY HAVE TO BE DONE TO ADDRESS ALL THE INDICATORS NEEDED TO
ANSWER THE EEI.

A REMOTE VIEWING SESSION IS A TEAM EFFORT
THERE ARE TWO MEMBERS OF THIS TEAM.

ONE IS THE INTERVIEWER, THE OTHER IS THE REMOTE VIEWER. THE
INTERVIEWER CONTROLS THE SESSION. HIS JOB IS TO KEEP THE REMOTE VIEWER
ON TRACK, TO DIRECT THE FOCUS OF THE REMOTE VIEWER AND TO QUESTION
HIM ABOUT THE TARGET. THE REMOTE VIEWER IS RESPONSIBLE ONLY FOR
REPORTING,
THE GOAL OF THE SESSION IS TO COLLECT INTELLIGENCE. TO DO THIS,
GREAT CARE IS TAKEN TO TRY AND FORCE THE REMOTE VIEWER TO PRODUCE
ONLY INFORMATION OF INTELLIGENCE VALUE, THIS IS DONE BY DENYING
HIM OTHER SOURCES OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE TARGET, WE ALWAYS KEEP
THE REMOTE VIEWER "BLIND". MOST TIMES THE INTERVIEWER IS ALSO KEPT
"BLIND", SO HE WILL NOT INADVERTENTLY LEAD THE REMOTE VIEWER.
(SLIDE 8 OFF)
(SLIDE 9 ON)
AT THE START OF THE SESSION, THE INTERVIEWER PROVIDES THE REMOTE
VIEWER WITH THE TARGET CUING DATA. THE REMOTE VIEWER HAS NOT SEEN
THIS INFORMATION BEFORE, HE RECEIVES IT ONLY AT THE START OF THE
REMOTE VIEWING SESSION
*
TARGET CUING DATA MAY FALL INTO SEVERAL
CATEGORIES. IT MAY BE GEOGRAPHIC OR UTM COORDINATES, AN OVERHEAD
PHOTOGRAPH OF THE AREA, OR A PHOTOGRAPH OF AN INDIVIDUAL OR OBJECT.
PERHAPS, THERE IS SOME REASON NOT TO GIVE TARGET INFORMATION TO A
REMOTE VIEWER.

THE WAY TO OVERCOME THIS IS SIMPLY TO PLACE THE TARGET INFORMATION
IN A SEALED ENVELOPE.
THE REMOTE VIEWER IS GIVEN THIS SEALED
ENVELOPE AND HE IS TOLD THAT THE TARGET FOR: TODAY IS IN THE ENVELOPE.
HE IS THEN SIMPLY ASKED TO DESCRIBE THE TARGET. ONCE THE REMOTE
VIEWER HAS THIS CUING DATA, THE TAPE RECORDER IS TURNED ON AND THE
SESSION BEGINS.
(SLIDE 9 OFF)
(SLIDE 9B ON)
AFTER THE SESSION, WHICH LASTS ABOUT 30 MINUTES, THE REMOTE VIEWER
IS ASKED TO DRAW THE PERCEPTIONS HE HAD DURING SESSION. THIS IS
IMPORTANT BECAUSE THE DRAWINGS MAY BE MORE ACCURATE OR SHOW A
DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE THAN THE VERBAL DESCRIPTIONS OF THE TARGET.
AFTER THE DRAWINGS ARE DONE AND THE REMOTE VIEWER TALKS ABOUT THEM,
THE REMOTE VIEWING SESSION IS COMPLETED, THE TAPE IS THEN TRANSCRIBED
AND A TRANSCRIPT FURNISHED TO THE PROJECT REQUESTOR, AFTER THE PROJECT
IS COMPLETED THE REQUESTOR PROVIDES AN EVALUATION. AS IN ANY OTHER
TASK, FEEDBACK IS ESSENTIAL,

SEPTEMBER 1979 THROUGH JULY 1982.
(SLIDE 10 ON)
NOTE THE COMPARISON OF SESSIONS TO PROJECTS, THE SPECIFIC NUMBER OF
COLLECTION SESSIONS, NECESSARY TO MEET A PROJECT'S REQUIREMENTS, IS
BASED UPON THE REQUESTOR'S TASKING, AS AN EXAMPLE, THE SUPPORT
PROVIDED DURING THE IRANIAN HOSTAGE CRISIS COVERED AN EXTENDED PERIOD
OF TIME AND RESULTED IN AN EXCESS OF 200 SESSIONS, OF THE 65 PROJECTS
COMPLETED AND FULLY EVALUATED,OVER 50 PERCENT HAVE PROVIDED INFORMATION
OF VALUE TO THE REQUESTOR.

I WOULD NOW LIKE TO COVER OUR PROJECT BOOK. THE PROJECT BOOK
ACCOMPANYING THIS BRIEFING PRESENTS EXAMPLES OF INTELLIGENCE COLLECTED
THROUGH REMOTE VIEWING. PRIOR TO ITS REVIEW I WISH TO EMPHASIZE THE
FOLLOWING POINTS:
1
REMOTE VIEWING IS NOT A MAGIC LAMP AND IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR CURRENT
INTELLIGENCE WORK. REMOTE VIEWING IS A HIGHLY CONTROLLED AND FORMALLY
ESTABLISHED, UNIQUE INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION CAPABILITY WHICH HAS THE
FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS:
(SLIDE 12 ON)
IT IS PASSIVE
TO THE EXTENT OF OUR KNOWLEDGE, COLLECTION BY REMOTE VIEWING IS
TOTALLY PASSIVE, ONLY ONE CLAIM OF DETECTION OF REMOTE VIEWING IS
KNOWN. CHINESE SCIENTISTS CLAIM TO HAVE DETECTED REMOTE VIEWING
DURING THEIR EXPERIMENTS WITH CHILDREN. DATA ON THESE EXPERIMENTS
IS
SG1B
INSUFFICIENT TO VALIDATE THIS CLAIM. WORK TO REPLICATE THESE EXPERIMENTS
IS CONTINUING AT SRI.

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE INFORMATION COLLECTED IS ACCURATE AND OF HIGH
