assured, however, that every effort will be made to preclude the
adverse effects listed above on my career.

project personnel beyond risks to which they would ordinarily be
exposed in their daily lives, the potential for injury during
some training cannot be conclusively ruled out.
b. (S/NF/WN) I may temporarily choose not to participate in

participation without prejudicial effect. Termination will be

to all tape recordings and transcripts made inconjunction with
STAR GATE, with the understanding that these tape recordings and
transcripts are property of the United States Government.

noninstrusive biomonitoring activities that are necessary for
project mission accomplishment.
5. (U) I hereby acknowledge receiving formal counseling
concerning my assignment to STAR GATE. Basic training and
operational procedures and their purposes, as well as attendant
discomforts, risks, and benefits have been explained to me. I
understand that I may at any time ask questions of the Commander,
POG, or other appropriate project personnel relating to areas
unclear to me. I further understand that my participation in
STAR GATE is voluntary and that at my request I may at any time
be reassigned without fear of adverse personnel action.
