(U) GENERAL 1.1 (S/CL-3/NOFORN) The objective of this effort is to investigate a particular aspect of the psychoenergetic phenomena known as remote viewing that has potential military intelligence application. Coordinate Remote Viewing (CRV) is a staged technique which utilizes coordinates to facilitate acquisition of a remote viewing target. 1.2 (S/CL-3/NOFORN) Major goals are the determination if CRV technology can be successfully transferred to INSCOM personnel with a corresponding increase in the reliability of a remote viewer. 2. (U) SPECIFIC TASK 2.1 (S/CL-3/NOFORN) Train army personnel in CRV Stages III and 2.1.1 (S/CL-3/NOFORN) Initiate training at the highest skill level (CRV Stage) of the trainee. 2.1.2 (S/CL-3/NOFORN) Training for each CRV stage will normally be divided into three two week working sessions. The session dates will be mutually agreed to by SRI and INSCOM. 2.1.3 (S/CL-3/NOFORN) After successful completion of CRV Stage III, schedule the trainee to begin CRV Stage IV. 2.2 (U) Determine the potential of the trainee for further training. 3.
