2. (S) GONDOLA WISH is a program designed to integrate the Soviet parapsychology/para-
physics intelligence collection threat into the all-source OPSEC support scenario.
3. (S) The project requires that selected personnel receive training which will enable
them to simulate Soviet parapsychological intelligence collection techniques. After
training, these individuals will utilize their skills in support of OPSEC missions by
playing the role of Soviet intelligence collectors. An organization which can provide
the necessary training to selected personnel has been identified and contacted. A fee
of $2000 is required. Training is scheduled to begin in October 78.
4. (C) Successful completion of this training will result in a new intelligence method

this training are not otherwise available due to the classified nature of the training
and the embarrassment which would be suffered by both the US Army and the training
organization, should US Army Intelligence involvement with this type of training be
disclosed.
