ChizHOST
[laughs] A lot of strange things happened to the people who underwent the experiments, and some of the people who were also in charge of it.
ChizHOST
So to start, Major General Albert Stubblebine was the active commander for the US Army Intelligence and Security Command, and he played a huge role in Stargate.
ChizHOST
He was operating under the same desire that everyone was in the program during that time, which is maybe we can harness this expanded consciousness thing and be able to use it to our advantage, okay? And granted, he may always have been a little cuckoo or predispositioned to be cuckoo, but after a while of sponsoring this project, he ended up becoming obsessed with this idea that he could create [laughs] a breed of super soldier.
SisterHOST
Oh.
Tony RodriguesGUEST
I found the spending of the project.
Tony RodriguesGUEST
So the first project I was in when I was abducted into the 20 and Back was psychoenergetics and remote viewing research for, in between Project Grow Flame and Project Center Lane for the Army INSCOM, for the US Army.
Tony RodriguesGUEST
And I found a lot of the paperwork and the people, and I've even...
Tony RodriguesGUEST
There's been a lot of weirdness ever since I did that, and that's, anyhow, that's the substance of my third book, Beyond Sight.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
The Army GEOINT Battalion, active since 2001, about 200 personnel, and here's the number I like, 40% military and 60% civilian.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
It sits inside the National Ground Intelligence Center and INSCOM.
CornHOST
60% civilian is the tell.
CornHOST
That's not a warfighting unit that does maps on the side.
Lyn BuchananGUEST
And I've never been that angry in my life on anything.
Lyn BuchananGUEST
But General Stubblebine of the U.S. Intelligence and Security Command got wind of it.
Lyn BuchananGUEST
He took me to Washington, D.C. in order to form a unit where we would destroy enemy computers.
Lyn BuchananGUEST
And Congress said, that sounds like mind control.
Eric MeyersNARRATOR
Because while few people believe in it, no one dares kill it either.
Eric MeyersNARRATOR
First, the Army takes up the project through its own intelligence agency, the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command, or INSCOM.
Eric MeyersNARRATOR
Now under the name Grill Flame, it builds a small group of full-time psychic spies and tries to use them to locate hostages, missing aircraft, and Soviet military sites.
Eric MeyersNARRATOR
The results are once again mixed, but occasionally striking enough to keep the program alive.
Eric MeyersNARRATOR
But in 1985, the Pentagon decides that the Army shouldn't have sole ownership of this exotic method of intelligence gathering, and transfers it to the DIA.
Lindsay ClancyGUEST
People tend to think of the CIA as the main intelligence collection apparatus in the United States, and it is.
Lindsay ClancyGUEST
But there are also various other intelligence agencies, and one of the most important is the Defense Intelligence Agency, which is also known as the DIA.
Lindsay ClancyGUEST
They also conduct intelligence, recruit human sources, generally focus on military targets, but they work in tandem with the CIA.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
Below that, DIA handles national-level long-term strategic needs.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
The service components, INSCOM, 25th Air Force, the Office of Naval Intelligence, they handle tactical short-term goals for their own services and remain separate entities.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
DIA isn't a collective of all military intelligence.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
It's a peer that sits above the strategic layer.
speaker_6NARRATOR
The CIA funded early work and later commissioned the final evaluation.
speaker_6NARRATOR
But the Army, Army Intelligence and Security Command, the Defence Intelligence Agency, SRI, and later Science Applications International Corporation all held important roles at different times.
speaker_6NARRATOR
The shifting names have encouraged a myth of one seamless secret project.
speaker_6NARRATOR
The surviving record shows something more bureaucratic and more revealing.
