Approved For Release 2000/08/08 CIA-RDP96-00788ROO1700030004-8 30 November 1981 MEMORANDUM FOR: ADCSOPS-HUMINT SUBJECT: Briefing of New ACSI, BG ODOM 1. (U) On 20 November 1981, from 1030-1130 hours. BG Odom was briefed by COL Norman S. Wells, Director, Intelligence Systems, OACSI and MAJ Dennis O'Keefe, OACSI GRILL FLAME Project Officer. 2. (FOUO) The OACSI briefing covered the history of the project, participants past and current, significant actions, funding and future planning. I provided a summary of INSCOM activities and requestors, and selected samples of successful projects. 3. (S) BG Odom described himself as an honest skeptic. He expressed an interest in Army becoming involved in an R&D effort to prove or disprove the existence of the phenomena. BG Odom questioned the low (40%) useful data ratio provided requestors, and while COL Wells, MAJ O'Keefe and I tried to put it into the same perspective as other collection systems, I do not think he was completely satisfied. (After the brief, COL Wells recommended to MAJ O'Keefe an update on this after BG Odom becomes more familiar with GRILL FLAME.) 2 Incl 1. Opns Summ 2. Requestor Summ ROBERT J.
