TIME
TRANSCRIPT
REMOTE VIEWING (RV) SESSION CCC 7
#14 This will be a remote viewing session for 28 February
1900. The on-target time is 0900 hours.
PAUSE
All right #46 the time is 0900 hours. Our target for
today is Michael Metrinko. At the beginning of the
session I showed you a photograph of Metrinko. I want
you now to relax, relax, focus your attention on
Michael Metrinko. Project yourself to his location and
tell me what you see.
PAUSE
+03 #46 Got a beard. Much longer hair now. He's..uh..I got
the impression of a, of a room. Room there were 3,
3 cots at one time and there are only 2. Getting an
+05 impression of a kind of a brown, brown sweater which
he seems to use repeatedly. Room is..uh..bigger than
+06 normal bedroom, than cubicle type. Extremely bored
young man.
PAUSE
#14 Is there anyone else in this room?
#46 Yeah, yeah. It, it.. .tired of.. .1 see a deck of cards
I think, with a light blue, light blue checker type
with lines, deck of cards that are used over and over
again. There were 3 before. There's only 1. Now
there are 2. I don't know. The other guy is taller.
I was getting, I mean that I think he's wearing glasses.
I want to say that they, they seem to agree. They see
to buy the Shah theory. It seems to be the entire
incident is reputable to the Shah of Iran. Large consenses
here that..uh..they agree on this basic point.
#14 I want you to take a very good hard look at anybody
else in this room besides Metrinko. I will ask you
to identify them in photographs after this session.

#46 I just see this one other guy. I see Metrinkos..uh..
+10 between 5 8, 5 10 this other guy is... .6 6 I tall,
broad, heavier set, at least...
PAUSE
As I see 2 beds lined up on the other side of the wall
there was a 3d one next to the door. It's.. .it comes
and goes. It was either there. It was taken out or
yet, but there's no occupant. Just 2 to the
room (mumbling).
PAUSE
Ok. And the other guy.. .1 got the distinctive
characteristics as (mumbling)...he's got a beard, too.
A heavy horn-rimmed glasses. I see a mixture of color
brown, dark brown and yellowish brown
#14 I want you now to leave this room
#46 One more thing, I think got the impression of a C.
I'm trying to get some idea. C, first initial M, may
be a J in there, something. This is like in a old
+12 English letter. Old English title. Looked like a C.
C or a G in old English with an M and a J in front.
Ok.
#14 I want you now to leave this room and take a quick
look around this building inside and tell me if you
find anymore hostages there.
PAUSE
+14 #46 First impression was of long corridors, people walking,
, around in pairs. I don't know where the hostages are.1
Got the impression of the corridors ...light, light
wooden floors. Like hardwood floors. Looks like a
college dorm, or something. I don't know. Long
corridors.
PAUSE
I don't know. I still got that impression of people
+16 walking around in twds and three's. It's confusing.
I don't think they are all hostages but a mixture.
It's as if the security was assured from the outside.
There's no, no big security stuff inside.

I want you to go outside and describe this building
and the area around it.
PAUSE
There's trees and grass. Big yard. It's like this
were a...dam...some sort of school red brick. Like the
two walls of the end of the building kind of protrude
beyond the side walls.

One side there's this big yard not in use so there's
a very much smaller yard with a tree line that's much
closer.
PAUSE

the air, over this area.. .drift several hundred feet to
a point where you have a good view of this area. Describe

the back yard.. .more pronounced than the front yard.
There's a corner of a yellow or white building on one
side with somewhat removed. There's another building
on the other side. Get the impression it's on a slight
curve, a slight curve. Uhite building has got..uh..

and the only distinctive feature has got 2 white cement
dull gray columns to the entrance. Not huge.

PAUSE
The people asking the questions are not Iranians.
I,There are 7 or 8 of 'em. This is the first time that
this guy's come to the realization that he's going
to be set free.
PAUSE
#14 do you perceive any other hostages?
#46 Yeah. A whole bunch.
#14 Do you see any of the Iranian terrorists or guards?
#46 Not participating. No.No. These friends aren't
going to go any place (phonetic).
The...you won't see 'em with guards anyway. They're
going to be in the backgroundsomeplace but you won't
see 'em. The hostages know they can't go any place.
PAUSE
Have a ..... I..uh..got the impression being conducted
with..uh..series. May be 8 to 12 hostages being,
being asked questions. It's going to be turn out
to be like a... in some instances almost like a seminar
SE

#14 I have no further questions #46. Is there anything
else that is important to add before I bring you back?
+37 #46 Yeah. Get the distinct impression'that this is a
the U.N.
PAUSE
That's all.
#14 All right #46. I want you to close your eyes again,
and I want you to s-l-o-w-l-y drift back to today,
28 February 1980. The time is now 0938.
Stretch your arms and legs a little bit. Well, how
do you feel?
#46 Ok.
#14 Uh...the first thing that you described was Metrinko
himself. Then you went on to describe the room that
he was in.
#46 Yeah. That was my first impression was the room. The
room was rectangular but it was not..uh..the small
cubicle that I had once perceived before. It was wider
than the normal little bedroom cubicle which is somewhat
narrower than.. .almost so little type that we've seen
before. This was much wider. It was a bigger type room.
It didn't seem like it was originally a bedroom. I'm
not going to redescribe him, except that I thought he
had a beard. And..uh..he was bored to death, and ...
his companion was this tall guy with the horn-rimmed
glasses. There was a third guy in there who was in
there but he was not there. He was there at one time.
What I had was a bed lined up on one side...not a bed
...a cot, sort of.. .impression of a white mattress
with...the bed is undone. ..keeps sitting down on the
bed. That was, that was a reoccurring impression;
and what I had was..uh..cat something like here where
this other guy made his home. There was a door here.
Along here, this, this cot here kept being there and
not being there. So it was like in and out. This is
the room that I saw when I first located him.
#14 Did you notice any other furniture in this, this
room.

#46 Oh I saw like a.. .funny you should say that.. .but
(..uh..books like a library type book. Not extensive
I but maybe 3 or 4 shelves of books in this wall here.
Oh quite a bit of furniture. Little tables lik
coffee tables. Put that down. That's not really a
bed. It's a cot, cot. cot. Then I'm noLgoing to
put there not there. That's the one.. .I'll just say
number 3 that kept being there and not being there.
I think at one Lime there was 3 and then they turned
out to be 2. And there were chairs, and stuff here
It did not seem as if it was originally a bedroom t

comfortable. I think the windows were here
around here which led to that extensive yar

This
sense of
#14 All right. Then you started to describe another
individual.. .you described as having heavy horn-rimmed
glasses...
#46 Ok. Let's put him in cot number 2. That was his bed.
He was a little older. Not that much older but maybe
2 years, 2 or 3 years older. Much taller.
#14 I'll..uh..I'll show you some photographs after this
session and see if we can identify
#46 Ok. I was trying to pick up a distinctive characteristic.
He also had a beard which I think was grown. I was
trying to pick up his facial features and the only
thing that kept popping up as distinctive was the
brown, yellow horn-rimmed glasses.
#14 You also described, you also had impressions of the
letterome type of letters or initials.
#46 Oh! Yeah. This was like Gothic, old Englisft_type.
I'm very bad at..nh..nombers and stuff, but I gave it
a try trying to give the guy an ID. Got the impressio
of a those letters superseded by a J M or M J or all
in Gothic whatever that is. What was the next thing?
#14 Oh, you describ....then I moved you outside of this
room and you described long corridors, hardwood floors,
college dorm type feeling...uh..and people moving up and
down the halls in 2's and 3's. Is there anything worth
drawing on that?

#46 No. It was just a very relaxed atmosphere. The
corridor was...peculiar thing about the corridor was
that the hardwood floors were kind to light, bluish
light and the ceilings were very white and the windows
giving on to that back yard. There was alot of light
and the corridors were quite spacious and there was
a very relaxed atmosphere with, with people in clusters
of 2's and 3's. And, you asked me if they were all
hostages. I did not get the impression they were all
hostages.
#14 Then you..uh..I led you outside and you described trees
and grass, big yard. I had the impression of some sort
of...uh..you mentioned school. You mentioned red brick.
#46 That was when you tried to make me pinpoint the type of
building. Let me go on and draw the... .later on you
tried to make me lo...pinpoint the location. I had
difficulty there. Only because I was too low and tried
to go higher and get a bigger perspective (turned tape
over) come back to that particular building after
some of the impressions.
What I had...trying to pinpoint features..uh..locations
and this is pretty high up, but what I had was a slight
bend...I think this was a road or something back here
...ok...but this was.. .I'm going to draw it this way
because I had to get...ha...real high to get a perspective
because it was, it was very spacious between...you wanted
me to find the building and adjoining buildings, I got the
impression that... .closest adjoining buildings were
several hundred yards to the right and left. Took some
finding. And what I had here was a short tree line.
Then I had the building I thought he was in. A little
closer to the road but kind 'o in the background. These
are all trees here. And this was...let's just make the
building this way...with...uh..trees but not clustered.
This was like a big back yard and then another cluster
of trees way in here. So the cluster seemed to surround
the building but there was a big open yard. That was
weird because I saw grass there or greenery. There was
a few isolated big trees.
This other building was quite aways and it was something
like this. This was the flat red brick building. The
only peculiar thing to this one was the, the main entrance
was protruded and the gray small columns that, that were
holding this thing down. Ok.

#46 This other building. The yellowish-white building
was around here someplace and this was peculiar...
let's just say number 1 is where he was; number 2 is
the red brick building, and number'3 was the yellowish
white building and the peculiarity with this one...
kind 'o strange ...see what it was like.. .was that it
had tall columns, like this, ok, and then there was
spirals and domes here, someplace. I don't think I

mikes here. I wasn't sure whether these guys would go
to the podium or just answer the questions.Atfirst
he was at the podium and then it was just round table...
...seven or eight guys were sitting down here you
could see the light reflect in this way but this was
completely dark behind him here and they were sitting
down and sort of monitoring and posing the questions...
later on I said it kind 'o.. .it generated into a seminar
type thing where the, the guys would..uh..at the table
would, would volunteer stuff and they'd start talking
about it. This was a round reddish table,..or...like
that...real conference, military conference table...
and they came in clusters.
Got the impression this kept going on and these guys
were in clusters of 8 to 10 people. Ok. These were
all chairs. Ok.
#14 That's pretty much it. Is there anything else you can
think of?
1146 That was the..uh..strongest impression.. .because I was
concentrating on, on Michael. Initially, it was one of
terrible boredom. Terrible, terrible boredom. And
wrestling with the idea of..uh..of landing ashore for
