Open AI Summary

The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) is proposing a program on remote viewing for intelligence purposes. The purpose of the program is to coordinate efforts between the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Services to improve efficiency, reduce redundant research, and make results available to both the DoD and Services. The DIA is requesting input on the proposed make-up of an Advisory Committee and Working Group, funding levels for the next five years, and any general remarks on the research and applied aspects of remote viewing. The program is highly sensitive, and strict control of all documents is requested.

 SUBJECT:   DoD Program on Remote Viewing (S/ORCON)
 1.   (S/ORCON) Enclosed you will find the minutes of a meeting
 held in my office on 24 August 1978, the primary intent of
 which was to initiate a coordinated DoD and Services effort
 to establish a program in remote viewing for intelligence
 purposes.   Current requirements and funding are uncoordinated;
 however, a unified DoD/Services program would significantly
 improve the efficiency of the U.S. effort, reduce redundant
 research and make results available equally to the DoD and
 Services.
 2.   (S/ORCON) We ask that you review the minutes and provide
 us with your comments on the proposed make-up of the
 Advisory Committee and Working Group, funding levels you
 might be able to sustain over the next five years (beginning
 in FY 79), and any general remarks you wish to make on the
 research and applied aspects of remote viewing.   Please send /
 your comments to my office no later than 18 September 1978.
 Subsequent to the receipt of these comments and evaluation of
 everyone's responses, we will be in touch with you, or your
 designated representative, and inform you of the time and
 date of the next meeting and proposed agenda.
 3.   (U) I remind you of the extremely sensitive nature of the
 program and request that you maintain strict control of all
 documents transmitted to you.
