(S-SS) Statistics Project #: e712-,4 Viewer.- 018 Session date: 11 SEP 87 P= i l en ame c . 8712. LO4 2. (S-SS) At-the start of this session, I tried to rid myself of the feeling that there will be no attacks on U. S. flagged ships in the (3ui f of Hormuz or the Persian Gulf dur i nc the month of September, by declaring it as both A.V. and AOL. 3. (S-SS) Having done this, I located myself on the Persian Gulf, and looked for s flagged ship, having a problem. Perceptions were: There was' U.S.lagged ship having problems which was located near land, the coast being in a north/south 'direction at that point (see sketch, bottom, P'.1) b. The ship, itself is facing in a north/south direction at the time of the problem. 4. (S-SS) As a double check on this information, I then retasked myself with "U.S. ship having trouble in the Persian Gulf", and got nothing. 5. (S-SS) It dawned on me that I-had just given myself two different tasking cues, so I again cued myself with 4 0-ceptions ed shi havi. nc. trouble i n t.h?
