A On 020900Nov 82, Source #01 was interviewed by #66 in an attempt to obtain information relevant to a building in a photograph identified as Annex. The project 8204 sponsor had provided a photograph of the building in question as well as a map showing its relative location. This photograph and map (see INCL 1) were used as cuing in an attempt to allow Source #01 to focus his attention on the designated area. Previous attempts had been made to obtain information about this building. (see report #925 & #926) These attempts were unsuccessfull due to faulty cuing data. These attempts were also confusing to Source #01 because he had sensed that something was wrong with the cuing (unpublished comments by #01 on 15 Jun82) He had also addressed the sponsors question in session #916 without being asked. This could have been "overlay", but still was a point of confusion for Source #01. For this reason #01 was shown both the photograph and the map. This provided him with clear cuing devoid the old doubts and confusions about the project. 2. A transcript of the interview was prepared along with a narrative explanation of the drawings which #01 provided. (see INCL 2) 3.??A DA Form 341 (Agent Report) was prepared for the sponsor. This report related the salient points of the interview. Attached as an exhibit to the report was a copy of #01's drawings and an explanation of the drawings.
