Approved For 03/0 1617F~M,~-LRWM q? R Q2411x9v'4-5 Washington, D.C. 20340-0001 TO: It Gen James R. Clapper, USAF In preparation for the 5 May 1993 STAR GATE briefing to Dr. Perry and Dr. Deutch, we are providing the following background information: TAB A: Hard copies of the briefing charts. TAB B: A special report recently prepared by the STAR GATE unit that summarizes project history and contains recent project findings. TAB C: A summary of an old report that Dr. Perry may still recall when he was Under Secretary of Defense. The report resulted from a review of this area by Dr. Manfred Gale and led to a policy decision by Dr. Perry that was negative on research. This policy was later reversed by Dr. DeLauer, Under Secretary of Defense in 1983. We are still not sure what prompted the inquiry into STAR GATE by Dr. Perry and Dr. Deutch. This could be related to potential Russian or Chinese activities in this area, or-do to their general interest in the topic. SG1I Our briefing s a balanced overview of the three STAR GATE program areas: - Foreign Assessments - External Research - In-House Activities Approved For Release 2003/01/17 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002500240004-5 Approved For Release 2003/01/17 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002500240004-5 SG1J The briefer will be DTI-S (STAR GATE) unit.-- will accompany.. DR should be aware that Dr. Perry had knowledge of this area in the late 1970's and may still recall some of the early difficulties indicated on TAB C. Our recent efforts have overcome all the early deficiencies. We are prepared to discuss this part of the area's early history should you-desire. JOHN T.
