In the summer of 1947 a man named Jack Hearn of Kentucky was on a road trip to visit relatives in New Mexico when he was abruptly stopped by US Army MPs on a desolate stretch of road at night. He was searched and then led to a peculiar truck that had a lab inside of it. He was cuffed, locked into a bolted seat, and had a metal ring collar placed around his neck. Then a peculiar machine was turned on that looked like a large TV set, but with metal ribs running through it from left to right. It had a recessed section with a flat section protruding and a row of switches below that were color-coded red and blue, alternating, 10-straight. The machine was switched on and immediately Mr. Hearn felt the sensation of invisible waves washing through his head. He became confused and started to see images from the previous days on the road entwined with other images of female Nazi officers and nurses talking to him in German… which he did not understand. At some point he could not tell if what was happening to him was live or if he were dreaming. This went on for what seemed like hours but he soon found himself back in his car along the road which was deserted. He looked at his watch and only 48 minutes had passed since he had been stopped. The US Army vehicles and MPs were gone. Hearn wondered if he had imagined the entire episode but when he felt his neck, it was warm and looking into his mirror he saw the outlines of the ring collar. He drove on but frequently had to stop. A severe headache developed that would not go away. When he reached his relatives he requested a doctor who examined him and who had to sedate him. He had suffered some trauma and yet refused for 5 years to tell anyone what happened that night- not even to his wife. He died in the late 1950s of a heart attack and his wife discovered an account he had written, hidden amongst his belongings in their attic. Alma Hearn read his account of the incident and written at the bottom was an enigma. It read: REALE YEARM. If one removes the last letter of each word REAL YEAR emerges and EM is left-over. Inquiries were made to the US Army which denied any such project or presence in the area where Mr. Hearn alleged that the incident took place back in 1947. But in released German declassified documents in the 1970s, a Dr. Riehl worked for the SS on a brainwave machine designed for psychic warfare and torture. It used a ring device and some form of sonic equipment to produce neural disruption. The Luftwaffe expressed an interest in this device also in amplified form to be aimed at air armadas to cause mass confusion and loss of the ability to fly aircraft or man guns! Of course, the device stayed in lab form until either captured or replicated in the US. This device was in Lofer, Austria where many secret weapons were under development and in which the US Army arrived first. The enigma above has never been solved AFAIK. REALE almost certainly is RIEHL but there are many German words for ring. YEARM is not one of them. Closest is JAHR which would mean YEAR, no M...???

Whether this had anything to do with claimed "Project Monarch" or MKULTRA is unknown. But German SS projects included bio-engineering, primitive genetic engineering, occult projects like modern alchemy, mind warfare, resurrection technology, and advanced medicine. The OSS used these as it morphed into CIG and then CIA...
