MEMORANDUM FOR DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL
INTELLIGENCE
SUBJECT:
SUN STREAK Operational Report - 8712-A
(U)
1.
( S/NF / SK)
During the period of 4 September 1987 through 9
September 1987, four remote viewers conducted four sessions
against Essential Elements of Information (EEI) levied under
Project 8712-A (TAB A) in an effort to determine the nature and
scope of perceived hostile activity against US-flagged vessels
sailing the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf.
The sessions
were conducted independently without the assistance or presence
of a monitor/interviewer.
2.
(S/NF /SK)
Copies of viewer summaries are at TAB B through
TAB E inclusively. Two viewers specified 15 September 1987
as the date of , anticipated hostile activity to be directed
against a US-flagged vessel (s). Two other viewers estimated the
date of anticipated hostile activity "about" 14 September 1987.
In the second instance, the projected date was mathematically
computed from available data provided by the viewers while in
session. A review of available data from two viewers indicates
the nature of the hostile activity as the firing of a silkworm
missile against a US-flagged tanker occurring within the
indicated time frame.
The other two viewers provided information
indicative of a hostile activity, but the nature of the hostile
activity is not clearly defined. Two viewers perceived the US as
playing a minor role in the swift, retaliatory activity taken
against the hostile forces. One viewer did perceive a limited
loss of (US) life to hostile forces.

COMMENTS: Sessions were conducted in a predictive
mode, specifically, viewers were tasked to go forward in time and
report their perceptions. On an equally innovative note, viewers
were asked to conduct their sessions without the assistance of
and interviewer/viewer.
The viewing activity was undertaken in
view of a perceived, potential increase in the strength of the
signal line as the likelihood of the event taking place
approaches in real time.

BACKGROUND:
During the month of September 1987, US-flagged
vessels sailing the Strait of Hormuz in the Persian Gulf are
susceptible to Iranian hostile activities conducted by land, sea,
or air.
Assuming the signal line increases in intensity as the
date of the event (target) draws near (eg, the President Kennedy
assassination), viewers operating voluntarily and independently,
are encouraged to access the problem and record their
impressions.
Sessions will be conducted independently without the presence of
a monitor/interviewer.
