For the past few minutes now you've been studying a photograph. On that photograph there was an area designated to you as Area I. Relax and concentrate now; focus your attention on Area I.

Ah...this individual was well groomed, dark hair, mustache, wearing a gray well tailored suit, very neat, with a white shirt and red tie. I would say would appear late 30's - early to middle 40's; probably much younger looking than his actual age; very hard to judge the age, but somehow this seemed to be his office or he was...ah...he seemed to be the dominant figure. #66 You don't feel this is...ah...taking place now? #14 No, no, no. It...well, if this office or this conference room or whatever has been normally dominated by this person, it just may be a very strong impression of him, but...ahm...ah...the individual was as I said ...ah...very fresh, you know hi roomed the hair cut well cris , , ... , g p suit was...ah...just like it came back from the cleaners, you know, pressed and everything, and he was very ...ah...you know, not ...lie was not wit one would expect from a hostage situation.

I only saw this one wall with these... these shapes that continued down, and again, I'm not sure whether these were panels, doers, wall lockers or what, but sitting here drawing... drawing them unconsciousl~,+-`Nialf unconsciously anyhow, I would describe them more as a...more as panels on a...ll of a hall way or a room. Ah...in Drawing No. 2 was a very strong impression; a nice comfortable chair, rather expensive type, the...it was very heavy, it was upholstered very nicely, very comfortable, but this was very solid wood construction, heavy type chair, and then the scene turned into one of... the chair itself is A...and appeared to be looking down a long, heavy table and there were more of these chairs around this table, and there appeared to be draperies or curtains or something nearby on the walls or...or whatever. ##66 This room with the conference table is the same ornate room you saw? ##14 I'm not sure because in Drawing 2, Page 2, all I perceived was, at first, the chair, and then the table with these other chairs all around there in this conference type area; the rest of it was Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R000800470001-3 Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R000800470001-3 entirely out of focus, and then I went back; all a sudden I saw a...kind of like an entrance way... oh boy, this is one of these things where I saw several different angles at the same time; I don't know to put it - how to draw it. I'll try. The...ah...I had two solid things that came out and appeared to be...ah...concrete or something, and the steps going up to...ahm...it appeared to be mostly glass doors through... two doors that opened like this and these panels on each side were solid and there appeared to he one above that. And then 4 was, once I got inside I was drawn to a room where I saw a large photograph or painting and the painting was of an individual or photograph of an individual. Ah...mostly the head and shoulders; bust type. There appeared to be some flags or something on either side of this and down in front... directly in front I'm not sure if there was a desk or what have you but then I had this long table again. #66 In your.. .you're questioning whether or not this is the same long table... conference table type situation you had before? ##14 Right, right, right. I don't know, I don't know. #66 OK. #14 Analytically it would appear that way, but not necessarily so. #66 OK.

He was shown overhead imagery of the US Embassy compound in Teheran, Iran. The area designated as Area "I" was pointed out to the viewer by the interviewer. The imagery is not included herein due to its classification. 3. (S) The viewer had not worked against this target as a remote viewer in the past. He had, however, served as an interviewer for this target. Becuase of this, he felt he had difficulty sorting his own target impressions from those he remembered from the session in which he was the interviewer (see Session CC39). At the time of the session, the viewer was not told anything about the area he was trying to describe except for its letter designation. Approved For Release 2000/08/07 CIA-RDP96-00788R000800470001-3
