Open AI Summary

According to a memorandum from the Defense Intelligence Agency, four remote viewers conducted sessions to determine the nature of perceived hostile activity against US-flagged vessels in the Strait of Hormuz and Persian Gulf. Two viewers specified the date of anticipated hostile activity to be September 15, 1987, while two others estimated the date to be around September 14, 1987. The nature of the hostile activity was described as the firing of a silkworm missile against a US-flagged tanker. The role of the US in retaliation against the hostile forces was seen as minor, and there was a perceived limited loss of US life to the hostile forces. The sessions were conducted without the assistance of an interviewer/viewer and were done in a predictive mode.

 MEMORANDUM FOR DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL
 INTELLIGENCE
 SUBJECT:   SUN STREAK Operational Report - 8712-A   (U)
 1.   (S/NF/SK)       During the period of 4 September 1987 through 9
 September 1987,  four remote viewers conducted four sessions
 against Essential  Elements of  Information  (EEI)  levied under
 Project 8712-A       (TAB A)  in an effort to determine the nature and
 scope of perceived hostile activity against US-flagged vessels
 sailing the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf.   The sessions
 were conducted independently without the assistance or presence
 of a monitor/interviewer.
 2.    (S/NF/SK)      Copies of viewer summaries are at TAB B through
 TAB E inclusively.   Two viewers specified  15 September  1987
 as the date of., anticipated hostile activity to be directed
 against a US-flagged vessel(s).   Two other viewers estimated the
 date of anticipated hostile activity "about" 14 September 1987.
 In the second instance,  the projected date was mathematically
 computed from available data provided by the viewers while in
 session.   A review of available data from two viewers  indicates
 the nature of the hostile activity as the firing of a silkworm
 missile against a US-flagged tanker occurring within the
 indicated time frame.   The other two viewers provided information
 indicative of a hostile activity,  but the nature of the hostile
 activity is not clearly defined.   Two viewers perceived the US as
 playing a minor role in the swift,  retaliatory activity taken
 against the hostile forces.   One viewer did perceive a limited
 loss of  (US)  life to hostile forces.

 3.   (S/NF/SK)   COMMENTS:   Sessions were conducted in a predictive
 mode,  specifically,  viewers were tasked to go forward in time and
 report their perceptions.   On an equally innovative note,  viewers
 were asked to conduct their sessions without the assistance of
 and interviewer/viewer. The viewing activity was undertaken in
 view of a perceived,  potential  increase in the strength of the
 signal  line as the likelihood of the event taking place
 approaches  in real  time.
