tis‘further believed that additional testing and demonstrations would be ant- climactic and superfluous to the needs in establishing the credibility of the technicues: and methods proposed for use. Re liability of witnesses and condit- i0as uncer which testing was conducted is of unquestionable character, Second, it is ‘be ieved that such techniques can be of high military yalue and are presently used ty Iron Curtaia Countries (see “Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain" by Ostrander and Schroeder also "Psychic Discoveries. by the Russ-~- ians" by Martin Ebon) and sporadically used even by our own DOD Agencies, As an example,..in the course of Vietnam waz fighting, the Marines ‘developed dows- ing or radionic devices from common household coat-hangers which were then use: by the Marine Corps engineers searching for Vietkong tunnels, booby traps and land mines.
