Approved For Release 2O 10.%MQI CTA~RtW96O0788R000100250020-3 a.rl i i 1i 4w J : - j_- 'w IAGPE-V-CO (16 Feb 82) SUBJECT: Information Request - BG Dozier (U) TO: CDRUSAITAC FROM: DATE: 30 March 1982 CMT 2 ATTN: CIPD LTC Reed/ak/7681 (Mr. Mortensen) SG1 AHS, VA 22212 A 1. (U) Responses appended at inclosure correspond to paragraphs in inclosure 1 of the 16 Feb 82 ADCSOPS-HUMINT DF, subject as above. 2. (C) My perception of this requirement is that the information requested is but one more attempt to validate the programmed side of the psychic/psychometric business that plagued us here during the Dozier crisis. Responses, therefore, represent a "first cut";this Unit does not have the resources to provide continuing or amplified data to help develop the tenuous status of expertise in that area. Any further task- ing that requires me to exact my limited resources against similar projects should be formally and correctly levied through this Detachments chain of command. My input to program measurement is this: Not one of the "data packages" was useful in finding and freeing BG Dozier. The reports drained our resources, embarrassed us with the Italians, and confused crisis management. BG Dozier is with us now due to extraordin- arily dedicated, patient and patently effective police work by the Italians. His re- lease, alive and unharmed, was engineered by policemen using good police intelligence, applying excellent training and tested techniques, and above all, producing results. The psychics were never even close. as LTC, MI Commanding cf Approved For Release 2 N (': 69 P $-id74R000100250020-3 2
