Navy Uses Dolphins For AntiTerrorism Patrols

To protect the U.S. Navy Kitsap-Bangor Naval Base at Puget Sound near Seattle from possible scuba diver terrorism, the navy is using 30 trained dolphins to detect swimmers or other possible threats to their ships. Iran is known to have special forces who scuba dive and can plant bombs on ships for example. However the recent tensions with Iran have little to deal with a long study of using marine mammals for military research or activity.

The navy has actually had a long relationship using marine mammals that goes back to the 1960's in fact. These trained animals have protected navy ships in many locations of the world, with only a few ever going AWOL. Dolphins have proven themselves to be intelligent and loyal sailors in the U.S. Navy.

Surprisingly, dolphins have also been the subject of a declassified document about a military program called Project Stargate, where experiments in ESP, remote viewing and other paranormal activities have been experimented with using dolphins to spy, plant explosives, or to protect naval vessels from possible harm.

Much of the public knows little about this military use of paranormal activity, or takes it very seriously, however both the U.S. and the former Soviet Union have spent much time and money investigating such activities. One claim from the former Soviet Union, claimed that an university professor was able to imagine a giant fist using just his mind, and then smash a giant sheet metal plate leaving a huge fist imprint on it. American experiments have involved the use of remote viewing, a controversial paranormal activity to spy on Soviet intelligence or military activity. The use of dolphins in experiments for this type of unusual military research is hardly unusual.
