OverviewIn the opening days of 1984 twenty-four American soldiers were summoned from a variety of military intelligence units around the world and brought to a remote mountaintop site in the Blue Ridge of Virginia. The reason for their summoning: to participate in the United States Army Intelligence and Security Command's Center Lane Project. Center Lane, an experiment in psychic warfare, was intimately tied to the much publicized, CIA sponsored psychic espionage unit, the Stargate Project. I was one of those soldiers selected. This is my story of the amazing events in that time and place and their impact on my life in the 30 years since. The story includes vivid descriptions of the expansion of human consciousness into altered states, as well as the fear, excitement, and disappointment of specific journeys. These journeys are described in as much detail as memory and verbal descriptions of non-verbal, non-physical vistas permit. You will not encounter any of the storybook creatures that have become so popular in recent years. There are no vampires or werewolves fighting their age-old wars nor are there strange and forbidden love triangles involving these creatures. There is nary a word about zombies or the coming zombie apocalypse. The world is entirely safe from the restless dead in my book. But you will meet the wolf, a spirit creature of exceptional power existing in both the real world and the world of altered states, he who first came to me on hunting trip in the Arkansas hills and returned time and again over the years as a spiritual guide and companion. And you will encounter a strange winged friend from some previously unknown place. Be prepared to set aside disbelief for a time and come with me on an extraordinary trip.

Roger (that would be me) was born in rural Arkansas in the late '40s. While growing up I did all the things that other boys in that time and place did, none of which bear repeating here. I joined the U.S. Army right out of high school because we were at war in Vietnam and I thought that was what I was supposed to do. Your country's at war, you go fight. Made sense to me at the time. I scored really high on all the Army tests and was selected to become part U.S. Army's elite Signals Intelligence unit, the Army Security Agency which later became the U.S. Army Intelligence and Security Command. I spent over 20 years running all over the globe listening to the communications of our enemies and stealing their secrets. Retired in '91 and spent another 20 building and maintaining global computer networks. During my military years, and I should say I loved every minute of it, I served in Viet Nam, Japan, Germany, the Philippines, Thailand, Taiwan and several places in the continental U.S. In 1984 I was selected for and participated in the Center Lane Project, a precursor the much publicized CIA psychic warfare experiment, The Stargate Project. The strange experiences I had during that experiment prompted me to write Secret Warriors, Psychic Spies. Now, after my second and final retirement, I live in Colorado with my wife Judy and spend my time camping in the Colorado Mountains, spoiling grandchildren and writing science fiction and fantasy.
