(S/NF/SK) Monitor Tasking: Obtain an overhead sketch of the target area. 2. (S/NF/SK) Source Tasking: Stage 3 movement drills and Stage 6 perspective descriptions were employed throughout the session to produce the attached target site sketches. 3. (S/NF/SK) Summary: 018's summary is attached. The monitor suspects that two separate aircraft flights are being superimposed on each other in the mind of the viewer: one flight transports the objects from the airfield to another area, another flight (which may also be connected with similar objects) may land at the same airport from a distant location. 4. (S/NF/SK) Comments: Good corroborative information; 018 is most useful in perceiving abstract relationships vs. detailed physical descriptions. The monitor requested a debrief period in order to try and sew data together a little more neatly, but 018 ha-d other things to do.
