Subject: Unsolicited Information (U)
1. (S/SK/WNINTEL) On 15 April 1986, LTC Kenneth Bell,
Threat Instructor, US Army Command and General Staff College,
Fort Leavenworth, KS, a previous member of this office with a
reputation of providing valid information, contacted the
undersigned via KY-3 Secure Voice. LTC Bell reported
substantially as follows:
a. (S/SK/WNINTEL) At approximately 2130 hours EST, 14
April 1986, Bell entered a "meditative state" in an attempt to
discover information relative to the location of the AF F-111
believed downed 14/15 April 1986 in conjunction with a bombing
raid over Libya. Bell feels that the F-111 in question is
located in the water in the vicinity of 09 degrees 15 minutes
east 36 degrees 42 minutes north. This location is north of
Cap Serrat. Bell perceived a gray container floating in the
water but believes that one must calculate the tidal drift
from approximately 2130 hours EST, 14 April 1986 to find the
object. Bell reported the above geographic coordinate as a
result of conventional military map analysis of his previous
direct "meditative" imagery of terrain (a boot shaped
peninsula). During his "meditative" access to the location
Bell also felt the number 17 was important. He later analyzed
this to possibly mean 17 degrees. As a result, Bell feels
that the aircraft in question may be located nearer the 17
degree line perhaps off the village of Surt. Bell provided no
further amplifying information concerning the location of the
AF F-111 believed downed 14/15 April 1986.

b. (S/SK/WNINTEL) After accessing the above information,
Bell, feeling that he was doing well, continued his "meditative
state" and asked himself, "Where will the next terrorist attack
be." Bell perceived a fenced or walled compound inside of which
was building. This building reminded Bell of a consulate or
embassy because to the rear of the building was a fountain and a
landscaped garden area. Bell perceived three rocket or LAW type
weapons being fired over the fence or wall. The persons firing
the weapons appeared to be on a raised platform like a balcony
either across the street or next door to the compound. Bell
felt this event was imminent and would occur within the next two
days. Bell also felt that this was not a controlled or directed
act but was done at random, perhaps in an attempt to take
advantage of the current situation. When questioned about the
location of the compound described, Bell thought it might be in
Bengazzi. But this concept did not "feel right" to Bell because
it did not make sense to him. He assumed that any terrorist
activity he perceived would be outside of Libya. Bell provided
no further amplifying information concerning the location of the
"next terrorist attack."
2. (S/SK/WNINTEL) Immediately upon receipt of the above
SG1J information the undersigned contacted DT-5A on the
"gray line"and an oral report was provided. This memo serves as
a written record.
