  MEMORANDUM FOR DEPUTY DIRECTOR ETC.
  SUBJECT: SUN STREAK Operational Report - 8712 (U)
  1. (SINFISK) During the period of 31 August 1987 through 2
  September 1987 inclusively, seven sessions were conducted by
  four remote viewers against Project 8712. Results are
  substantially as follows:
  a. (SINFISK) The first three weeks in September 1987 were
  identified as periods of heightened military activity as a result
  of the presence of US-flagged vessels in the Persian Gulf and the
  Strait of Hormuz.
  b. (S/NF/SK) The period of 20 September 1987 was described
  as a period of lessened military activity for the US forces in
  the area; howev,~r, there was a perception of increased (anti-US)
  manifestations and demonstrations (by Iran).
  C. (S/NF/SK) Source 011 and Source 079 labeled the week of
  12 September as a period of enhanced military-related activity by
  US forces in the Persian Gulf area.
  d. (S/NF/SK) Source 003 reported a perceived, preemptive
  US military strike conducted against Iranian land-based targets
  on or about 6 September 1987.
  e. (S/NF/SK) Source 018 perceived an oil slick on fire with
  billowing smoke in "absolutely -smooth waters" close to land, in
  the Strait of Hormuz during the week of 16 September 1987. This
  incident is related to the presence of US-flagged vessels. 018

             f. (SINFISK) Source 079 described the firing of a
        projectile against a land-ba'sed (Iranian) miiitary target in the
        Strait of Hormuz.
             g. (S/NF/SK) Source 011 perceived minor damages sustained
        by a "black dark gray, red" US-flagged vessels as a result of a
        projectile assumedly launched from a land-based (Iranian)
        battery.
        2. (S/NF/SK) COMMENTS: Sources reached a consensus on the
        perceived probability of military activity related to US-flagged
        vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. The activity is perceived as
        occurring in September 1987. There was a conspicuous absence of
        correlation among sources describing individual, isolated
        incidents devoid of mutual corroboration.
        3. (S/NF/SK) No further foreign intelligence collection
        activity will be pursued Project 8712 unless or until additional
        specific requirements or intelligence gaps are identified and
        levied for action.
