I AM LTC BUzBY, PROJECT MANAGER FOR INSCOM PROJECT CENTER LANE.
I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MY OPERATIONS OFFICER. FRED
/ATWATER. THE PURPOSE OF THIS BRIEFING IS TO PROVIDE YOU WITH
BACKGROUND INFORMATION CONCERNING INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES USING
THE. CENTER LANE TECHNIQUE. THAT TECHNIQUE IS THE USE OF PSYCHO-
ENERGETICS FOR INTELLIGENCE PURPOSES. I WILL DISCUSS THE
HISTORY OF THE PROGRAM, OUR PERSONNEL AND FISCAL SITUATION,
TRAINING, OPERATIONS, AND OUR PLANS FOR THE FUTURE. THE OVERALL
CLASSIFICATION OF THE BRIEFING IS SECRET, CENTER LANE LEVEL 4d
SIR, AS YOU ARE AWARE, CENTER LANE IS A REGISTERED DEPARTMENT OF
THE ARMY SPECIAL ACCESS PROGRAM. THAT STATUS AND THE
SENSITIVITY OF THE CENTER LANE MISSION REQUIRE US TO ADHERE TO
STRICT SECURITY PROCEDURES. As PART OF THOSE PROCEDURES, WE ASK
ALL PERSONNEL WHO RECEIVE A CENTER LANE BRIEFING TO COMPLETE A
SECURITY BRIEFING CERTIFICATE THAT ACKNOWLEDGES AN ACCEPTANCE OF
THE SENSITIVITY OF CENTER LANE INFORMATION. I NOW INVITE YOU TO
COMPLETE THAT CERTIFICATE.
(CHART 1) PSYCHOENERGETICS ARE THE PROCESSES BY WHICH AN
INDIVIDUAL MAY PSYCHICALLY INTERACT WITH OBJECTS, LOCATIONS,
ORGANISMS OR EVENTS. THIS INCLUDES SUCH DISCIPLINES AS
PSYCHOKINESIS, REMOTE VIEWING, AND REMOTE COMMUNICATIONS. As
YOU RECALL SIR, GENERAL STUBBLEBINE DISCUSSED ONE FORM OF REMOTE
COMMUNICATIONS WITH YOU. THIS WAS THE "BAXTER EFFECT" ON BLOOD
CELLS WHERE, THROUGH THE USE OF PSYCHOGALVANIC MEASUREMENT,
BLOOD CELLS ISOLATED FROM A DONOR APPEARED TO REVEAL THE

THE US GOVERNMENT, TO INCLUDE THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE, HAS
BEEN INVOLVED IN EXAMINING POTENTIAL USES OF PSYCHOENERGETICS
SINCE THE EARLY 1970's. ACTIVITIES INCLUDED THE APPLICATION OF
REMOTE I.IEWING AS AN INTELLIGENCE GATHERING TOOL BY THE CENTRAL
INTELLIGENCE AGENCY, THREAT ANALYSIS BY THE DEFENSE INTELLIGENCE
AGENCY, AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS BY US ARMY DARCOM
ELEMENTS. LET'S NOW LOOK INTO INSCOM'S EFFORTS.
(CHAR{ CHANGE) THE US ARMY INTELLIGENCE AND SECURITY COMMAND'S
INVOLVEMENT WITH PSYCHOENERGETICS BEGAN IN SEPTEMBER 1977. AT
THAT TIME, AN INSCOM ELEMENT IMPLEMENTED THE GONDOLA WISH
PROGRAM WHICH WAS DESIGNED TO INTEGRATE THE SOVIET AND EAST
EUROPEAN PSYCHOENERGETIC INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION THREAT INTO THE
ALL-SOURCE OPERATIONS SECURITY (OPSEC) SUPPORT SCENARIO.
by SPRING OF 1978, THE ARMY ACSI CONCLUDED THERE WAS SUFFICIENT
EVIDENCE TO WARRANT THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM
TO EXPLORE MILITARY APPLICATIONS OF PSYCHOENERGETICS. HE
CANCELLED THE GONDOLA WISH EFFORT, PLACED A COMPLETE SECURITY
ENVELOPE OVER ARMY'S INTEREST IN PSYCHOENERGETICS, AND
IMPLEMENTED A NEW PROGRAM DIRECTED TOWARDS INTELLIGENCE
COLLECTION USING REMOTE VIEWING. THE NEW EFFORT WAS GIVEN THE
UNCLASSIFIED NICKNAME GRILL FLAME. IN OCTOBER 1978, ACSI TASKED
INSCOM TO ESTABLISH A PROGRAM USING PSYCHOENERGETICS FOR
INTELLIGENCE APPLICATIONS UTILIZING REMOTE VIEWING. REMOTE

A
VIEWING IS AN SRI INTERNATIONAL COINED TERM WHICH IS DEFINED AS
THE ACQUISITION AND DESCRIPTION. BY MENTAL MEANS, OF
INFORMATION BLOCKED FROM ORDINARY PERCEPTION BY DISTANCE,
SHIELDING, OR TIME. BY SPRING 1979, PROJECT PERSONNEL HAD BEEN
SELECTED AND TRAINING INITIATED. IN MARCH 1980, THE UNDER
SECRETARY OF DEFENSE FOR RESEARCH AND ENGINEERING, WILLIAM
PERRY, ORDERED CURTAILMENT OF ALL PROGRAM 6 MONIES SUPPORTING
PSYCHOENERGETIC R&D EFFORTS, BUT POSED NO OBJECTION TO THE
CONTINUANCE OF INSCOM'S NON RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
INTELLIGENCE APPLICATIONS EFFORTS. THIS ACTION CAUSED DARCOM TO
CEASE ALL ACTIVITY AT THE END OF FY 80. IN 1981, THE ACSI
TRANSFERRED TOTAL MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROJECT TO
1NSCOM. ALSO IN 1981, A JOINT SERVICES GRILL FLAME COMMITTEE,
CONSISTING OF DIA, THE AIR FORCE AND ARNIY WAS FORMED. THE NAVY
EXPRESSED NO INTEREST IN PARTICIPATING IN ANY DISCUSSIONS, AND
LATER THE AIR FORCE CHIEF OF STAFF DIRECTED THAT THE AIR FORCE
WITHDRAW FROM THE COMMITTEE AND ALL PSYCHOENERGETIC PROGRAMS.
THIS JOINT SERVICES EFFORT INTENDED TO IMPLEMENT A 3-YEAR
COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM DESIGNED TO DETERMINE THE OPERATIONAL
PARAMETERS AND USEFULNESS OF PSYCHOENERGETICS AND ASSESS THE
THREAT THESE PHENOMENA POSED TO NATIONAL SECURITY. IN 1981, THE
ROLES OF DIA AND ARMY WERE DISTINCT, DIA WAS R&D ORIENTED AND
INSCUM'S GRILL FLAME PROJECT WAS TO USE REMOTE VIEWING AS AN
OPERATIONAL TECHNIQUE TO COLLECT INTELLIGENCE AND TO DETERMINE
IF REMOTE VIEWING COULD BE LEARNED BY PROFESSIONAL INTELLIGENCE
PERSONNEL WHO WERE NOT "ESTABLISHED PSYCHICS." INSCOM

PARTICIPATED IN THIS JOINT SERVICES EFFORT UNTIL THE END OF FY
82 WHEN THE BUDGET' SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE SENATE SELECT COMMITTEE
ON INTELLIGENCE (SENATOR WALLOP) CURTAILED ALL PSYCHOENERGETIC
OPERATIONAL ACTIVITIES CONDUCTED BY THE ARMY IN THE NATIONAL
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE PROGRAM (NFIP). THE CONGRESSIONAL
CONFEREES AGREED, HOWEVER, TO LET DIA COMPLETE THE THIRD YEAR OF
THEIR EFFORT AND DIRECTED THAT FUTURE FUNDING -- IF ANY -- OF
THIS PSYCHOENERGETIC ACTIVITY BE BUDGETED OUTSIDE THE NFIP. So
IN THE FALL OF 1982, IN KEEPING WITH THESE CONGRESSIONAL DESIRES
AND WISHING TO MAINTAIN THE MOMENTUM OF EFFORT ALREADY
ESTABLISHED, THE CG, INSCONI DECIDED TO CONTINUE INSCOM's PROJECT
AND PROVIDE FUNDING WITH SECURITY AND INVESTIGATIVE ACTIVITIES
(S&IA) MONIES. INSCUM TERMINATED FORMAL INVOLVEMENT WITH GRILL
FLAME AT THE END OF FY 82, AND CONTINUED ITS EFFORTS UNDER A
PROVISIONAL SPECIAL ACCESS PROGRAM NICKNAMED CENTER LANE.
NEXT I WANT TO PROVIDE YOU WITH AN OVER VIEW OF INSCOM'S
OPERATIONAL EFFORTS OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS. (CHART ON)
DURING 1979, WE CONDUCTED 79 OPERATIONAL MISSIONS, 43 OF WHICH
WERE DEDICATED TO ASSISTING THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY DURING
THE IRANIAN HOSTAGE CRISIS. DURING 1980,' AFTER WE ACQUIRED
OPERATIONAL EXPERIENCE, OUR OWN SEPARATE FACILITIES, AND
INCREASED MANPOWER, WE WERE ABLE TO INCREASE OUR PRODUCTION TO
386 OPERATIONAL MISSIONS, 154 OF WHICH WERE STILL DEDICATED TO
IRAN, PERSONNEL LOSSES RESULTED IN A SHARP DECLINE OF
OPERATIONAL MISSIONS, A SITUATION THAT CURRENTLY EXISTS.

 Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001700330003-6
OVERALL, IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS WE HAVE CONDUCTED MORE THAN 700
OPERATIONAL INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION MISSIONS. A CONSIDERABLE
PORTION OF THESE (OVER 200) WERE IN SUPPORT OF THE IRAN
SITUATION, WHICH THE JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF RATED AS BEING
QUALITATIVELY EQUAL TO THOSE OF OTHER INTELLIGENCE SOURCES
AVAILABLE TO THEM.
BECAUSE OF THE TURMOIL THAT HISTORICALLY HAS BEEN ASSOCIATED
WITH THE PROJECT, WE HAVE NOT HAD A STABLE PERSONNEL SITUATION.
(CHAKT CHANGE) IN 1979, CG INSCOM FORMED A TASK FORCE
CONSISTING OF 5 PERSONNEL: A PROJECT MANAGER, AN
OPERATIONS/TRAINING OFFICER, A SECRETARY, AND TWO SOURCES
(RVERS). IN 1980, TWO ADDITIONAL OPERATIONAL PERSONNEL WERE
ASSIGNED. BY 1981, WE WERE READY TO EXPAND AND RECRUITED 2 NEW
PERSONNEL FOR TRAINING IN THE PROJECT. BUT BY THE END OF 1981,
PCS MOVES SEVERELY HAMPERED OUR OPERATIONAL CAPABILITY. HAVING
BEEN DENIED NFIP FUNDING AND, THEREFORE, A TDA BY CONGRESSIONAL
ACTION, CG, INSCOM HAS PROVIDED OUT-OF-HIDE PERSONNEL SPACES IN
SUPPORT OF CENTER LANE SINCE THE LOSS OF THIS FUNDING AT THE END
OF FY 82. NO BUDGET SUBMISSION WAS MADE TO OBTAIN S$IA FUNDED
PERSONNEL SPACES BECAUSE ACSI EXPECTED TO GET NFIP APPROVAL IN
THEIR FY 85 GRIP SUBMISSION. THE FY 85 GDIP INITIATIVE WAS
POSTPONED IN LATE AUGUST (29 AUG 83), AND NOW ACSI DOES NOT
ANTICIPATE THE POSSIBLE APPROVAL OF NFIP FUNDING UNTIL FY86;
THEREFORE, CENTER LANE WILL CONTINUE TO OPERATE WITHIN INSCOM AS
A TASK FORCE WITHOUT A TDA. OUR CURRENT FULL-TIME STRENGTH IS

AS SHOWN ON THE CHART. WE HOPE TO HAVE THREE ADDITIONAL TRAINEE
SOURCES ASSIGNED TO US BY NEXT SPRING AND POSSIBLY TWO MORE BY
THE FOLLOWING WINTER.
(CHART CHANGE) OUR MISSION STATEMENT REQUIRES US TO TRAIN
PERSONNEL TO PERFORM REMOTE VIEWING. TRAINING ACTUALLY BEGAN IN
1979, WITH OUR IN-HOUSE EFFORT TO INTRODUCE SELECTED INSCOM
PERSONNEL TO THE:. REMOTE VIEWING PROCESS. DURING 1979, WE
INTEGRATED THE SRI CONTRACTED ORIENTATION TRAINING TECHNOLOGY
INTO OUR IN-HOUSE TRAINING PROGRAM WHERE IT IS STILL IN USE
TODAY FOR NEW PERSONNEL. OUR IN-HOUSE TRAINING DEVELOPED FROM
THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF STATE-OF-THE-ART PSYCHOENERGETIC
TECHNOLOGY DRAWN FROM ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS, SCIENTIFIC
LABORATORIES, AND RESEARCH ESTABLISHMENTS AROUND THE WORLD. WE
TOOK AN ECLECTIC APPROACH; USING THOSE METHODS WHICH HAD
APPLICATIONS POTENTIAL TO OUR OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS.
IN-HOUSE TRAINING IS COMPOSED OF PRACTICAL EXERCISES, LECTURES,
LITERATURE REVIEW, AND OBSERVATION OF OTHERS. BY THE END OF
1980, WE BEGAN AN ADVANCED TRAINING PROGRAM USING THE
HEMISPHERIC SYNCHRONIZATION PROCESS DEVELOPED BY ROBERT A.
MUNROE AND USED AT THE MONROE INSTITUTE OF APPLIED SCIENCE IN
VIRGINIA. As YOU RECALL, GENERAL STUBBLEBINE BRIEFED YOU ON THE
HEMISYNC PROCESS AND PROVIDED YOU WITH SLEEP TAPES. THIS
TRAINING ENABLES SOURCE PERSONNEL (RVERS) TO ACHIEVE STATES
CONDUCIVE TO PSYCHOENERGETIC AWARENESS. THIS ADVANCED TRAINING
IS BEING FURTHER REFINED AND CONTINUES TO BE USED TODAY. IN MID

1982, WE BEGAN A NEW TRAINING PROGRAM IN COORDINATE REMOTE
VIEWING WITH SRI. IHIS NEW COORDINATE REMOTE VIEWING OR CRV
TRAINING PROCESS SUBDIVIDES THE DETECTION AND DECODING OF
PSYCHIC IMPRESSIONS INTO DISCRETE, ACHIEVABLE SKILL LEVELS.
THIS PROCESS HOLDS GREAT PROMISE FOR REFINING RV AND GIVES US A
METHOD BY WHICH WE CAN BRING NEW SOURCE PERSONNEL UP TO AN
OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE LEVEL WITH MINIMAL DRAIN ON OUR LIMITED
IN-HOUSE RESOURCES. WE CONTINUE TO LOOK FOR ADDITIONAL
CONTRACTORS TO ASSIST US IN MAINTAINING STATE-OF--THE-ART
TECHNICAL EXPERTISE.
THIS NEXT CHART SHOWS OUR COSTS, LESS PERSONNEL SALARIES, SINCE
THE PROJECT'S INCEPTION. (PAUSE) SIR, I REMIND YOU THAT FY's
81 AND 82 SAW OUR PARTICIPATION IN THE JOINT PROGRAM AND,
THEREFORE, AN INCREASE IN OUR EXPENDITURES. DURING THE LAST
FIVE YEARS OF INSCOM'S EFFORT IN PSYCHOENERGETICS, WE HAVE
CONDUCTED OVER 700 OPERATIONAL INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION MISSIONS
IN SUPPORT OF 89 COLLECTION PROJECTS, AND MANAGED 4 SOURCE
TRAINING PROGRAMS M_ ALL WITH A LIMITED NUMBER OF PERSONNEL AND
AT A COST TO DATE OF ONLY $703K. THOSE INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION
MISSIONS HAVE RESULTED IN 3 "INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY FIRSTS."

(CHART CHANGE) THE NEXT PART OF MY BRIEFING WILL COVER
INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION PROJECTS, THEIR SPONSORS, AND OUR
SUCCESS RATIOS. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT ONE COLLECTION
PROJECT MAY REQUIRE ONE OR MANY OPERATIONAL MISSIONS TO SATISFY
ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF INFORMATION (EEI). THE IRAN PROJECT, FOR
EXAMPLE, REQUIRED OVER 200 OPERATIONAL MISSIONS.
IN 1979, WE CONDUCTED 7 COLLECTION PROJECTS FOR 4 SEPARATE
SPONSOR AGENCIES, IN 1980, WE CONDUCTED 41 PROJECTS FOR 6
SPONSOR AGENCIES. IN 1981, AS MANPOWER CONSTRAINTS BEGAN TO
LIMIT' OUR CAPABILITY, WE CONDUCTED ONLY 20 PROJECTS FOR 5
SPONSORS. IN .1982, OUR PRODUCTION FELL AGAIN TO JUST 11
PROJECTS AS WE ONLY HAD ONE OPERATIONAL SOURCE ASSIGNED. SO FAR
IN 1983, WE HAVE 10 PROJECTS, 8 OF WHICH REMAIN ACTIVE.
IN SUMMARY, OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS INSCOM HAS CONDUCTED 89
COLLECTION PROJECTS FOR A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT US GOVERNMENT
AGENCIES. OUR SUCCESSES MUST BE EXAMINED FROM TWO PERSPECTIVES.
(CHART CHAM?) OVER 85% OF OUR OPERATIONAL MISSIONS HAVE
PRODUCED ACCURATE TARGET INFORMATION. EVEN MORE SIGNIFICANT,
APPROXIMATELY 50% OF THE 700 MISSIONS PRODUCED USABLE
INTELLIGENCE. (CHART OFF)

PROJECT BOOKS, CENTER LANE OPERATIONAL CAPABILITIES AND THE USE
OF CENTER LANE INTELLIGENCE.
SIR, I HAVE TALKED ABOUT WHERE WE HAVE BEEN, AND WHERE WE ARE
WITH THE PROJECT. 1 NOW WILL ADDRESS OUR FUTURE.
RECENTLY, THE PROHIBITION AGAINST UTILIZING PROGRAM 6 FUNDS WAS
SUSPENDED BY THE CURRENT UNDER SECRETARY OF DEFENSE FOR RESEARCH
AND ENGINEERING AND THE ACSI HAS MADE ARRANGEMENTS TO USE THESE
FUNDS TO SUPPORT THE INSCON CENTER LANE PROJECT. THIS WILL
ENABLE US TO EXPAND OUR EFFORTS INTO AREAS WHICH HAVE BEEN
NEGLECTED OVER THE YEARS DUE TO LACK OF A SUFFICIENT FUNDING
BASE. WE PLAN THE FOLLOWING EXPENDITURES FOR FY 84: (CHART ON)
PURCHASE OF BIOMONITORING EQUIPMENT TO BE USED TO
DETERMINE PHYSIOLOGICAL CHANGES DURING THE CONDUCT OF
PSYCHOENERGETIC TASKS.
DEVELOPMENT OF A STATE-OF-THE-ART PSYCHOLOGICAL
SCREENING/SELECTION PROFILE FOR USE IN IDENTIFYING POTENTIAL
SOURCES. SUCH A PROFILE WOULD IDENTIFY PERSONNEL WHO MAY HAVE
SOME PSYCHOENERGETIC TALENT OR WHO COULD BE TRAINED. WE PLAN TO
USE THIS STUDY TO ASSIST US IN RECRUITING NEW SOURCES. FUNDS
NOTED ARE FOR BOTH SRI AND SRI SUBCONTRACTS.

EXAMINE THE POSSIBILITY THAT CERTAIN AS YET UNIDENTIFIED ELF
RADIATIONS HAVE A DETRIMENTAL EFFECT ON MENTAL STATES CRITICAL
TO PSYCHOENERGETIC PERFORMANCE, THIS STUDY MAY ALSO PROVIDE
INFORMATION ON ELF ENVIRONMENTS CONDUCIVE TO OPTIMUM
PSYCHOENERGETIC PERFORMANCE. THE LOGICAL FOLLOW-ON TO THIS
EFFORT WOULD BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOCAL COUNTER-COUNTERMEASURES
ENVIRONMENTS FOR CENTER LANE SOURCES, FUNDS NOTED ARE FOR SRI

DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW PSYCHOENERGETIC TECHNIQUE FOR USE
IN "SEARCH PROBLEMS." OVER THE YEARS SPONSOR AGENCIES HAVE
ASKED US TO ASSIST IN LOCATING LOST OR MISSING EQUIPMENT OR
PERSONNEL. BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A CONVENTIONAL REMOTE VIEWING
TASK, WE HAVE HAD LITTLE SUCCESS AT PROVIDING TIMELY USABLE
INTELLIGENCE IN THESE CASES. THAT'S NOT TO SAY THAT INFORMATION
WE PROVIDED WAS INACCURATE, JUST THAT IT WAS NOT DIRECTLY USABLE
TO RESOLVE THE INTELLIGENCE PROBLEM AT HAND, IF IN FACT A NEW
PSYCHOENERGETIC "SEARCH PROBLEM" TECHNIQUE IS DEVELOPED. WE
WOULD ANTICIPATE TRAINING SOURCE PERSONNEL IN THIS TECHNIQUE
BECAUSE "SEARCH PROBLEMS" CONTINUE TO BE PRIORITY TASKS RECEIVED
BY THIS OFFICE. FUNDS NOTED ARE FOR SRI.

ENHANCED LEVELS FOR ONE SOURCE, FUNDS NOTED ARE FOR SRI AND A

THIS $496,5K P6 MONEY WILL BE SUPPLEMENTED BY $235K INSCOM S&IA

BECAUSE THIS P6 FUNDING BASE HAS SO RECENTLY BECOME AVAILABLE TO
US, FINAL BUDGET PLANS FOR FYs 85-89 ARE STILL BEING

THAT THE CG INSCOM HAS JUST PROVIDED US WITH A REVISED MISSION
STATEMENT: (CHART CHANGE)
CONDUCT INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION AND COUNTERINTELLIGENCE
TRAIN SELECTED PERSONNEL IN STATE-OF-THE-ART
PSYCHOENERGETIC INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION AND COUNTERINTELLIGENCE
TECHNIQUES.
EXPAND OPERATIONAL CAPABILITIES AND TRAINING BEYOND THE
CONFINES OF INFORMATION COLLECTION INTO' THE FIELDS OF
PSYCHOENERGETIC COMMUNICATION AND PSYCHOKINESIS.
THIS NEW MISSION STATEMENT EXPANDS OUR EFFORT A GREAT DEAL. WE
ARE NO LONGER CONFINED TO REMOTE VIEWING AS OUR PRINCIPAL TOOL
AND WILL NOW DEVELOP AND USE TELEPATHIC AND PSYCHOKINETIC SKILLS.
