Military remote viewer with the INSCOM/DIA program. Morehouse served from 1988-90 at Ft. Meade during SUN STREAK.
Formerly an employee of PSI-TECH, 1992.
"He is the author of PEACE QUEST: Visions of Future War by Greenwood Publishing Group, a book detailing the employment of nonlethal weaponry and technology using various fictional scenarios to template world events."
"He recently contracted with Hanna Barbera to produce a children's cartoon series. The series (working title) titled 'Peace Force: The Avalon Odyssey' involves a space federation that employs nonlethal weaponry in defense of the inhabitants of the galaxy. Negotiations for development of nonlethal computer gaming for children are currently underway."
"He works with Paraview, Inc., as the Vice President For Development. Paraview is a television and film production company & literary agency based in Manhattan, New York."
("Who is Dave Morehouse Ph.D.?")
"Morehouse eventually decided to stop using his psychic powers for military purposes after participating in a secret program designed to send 'malicious brain waves' to individual U.S. enemies, including Saddam Hussein during the Gulf War. The brain waves were intended to induce in their target confusion, disorientation and death."
"David Morehouse was discharged from the military after refusing to use his psychic powers as a weapon. He claims the government harassed him and his family after he tried to strike a deal with corporations and Hollywood to find a more positive outlet for his purported psychic capabilities."
(ParaScope Staff, "Psychic Soldier Writes Book About Psy-Ops Warfare")
(Dames, Ed, "Will the Real Lyn Buchanan Please Sit Down")
"The Fort Bragg prosecutors made the charges sound
fearsome: adultery, sodomy, communicating a threat, conduct
unbecoming an officer, and larceny (regarding a computer
that Morehouse had "borrowed" from Fort Leavenworth and then
loaned to Angela). All in all, however, it wasn't such a
high stakes case. It boiled down to a jilted girlfriend,
and an officer who did a good job at work but had a habit of
overmanipulating people and couldn't keep his pants zipped.
("He's got too many -- what is it? X genes or something?" Ed
Dames told me at the time.)"
(Scnabel, Jim, "An American Hero: The Truth About Dave Morehouse and Psychic Warrior (Part 2)")
While it seems he didn't just mail a check for his PhD (the way I got my ordination), LaSalle University is an unaccredited correspondance college.
After recovering, Morehouse was recruited into an intelligence unit called Royal Cape, which sought to support covert operations in foreign countries. When he revealed his strange experiences during psychological evaluations, he was recruited into the operational unit of the remote-viewing program.
Morehouse claims that he left the program because he felt that remote viewing should be used for the good of mankind and should not be kept secret. He describes possible uses of the phenomena as finding a cure for cancer or AIDS (to my knowledge, Morehouse has discovered neither since going private).
After leaving the program and joining the regular Army (1992 in this article, 1990 everywhere else), Morehouse claims he was harrassed by the Army, including a murder attempt when a power generator was brought into his house and released carbon monoxide gasses. He was brought up on charges in 1993 (see above). "He was briefly hospitalized and given antipsychotic drugs". In December, 1994, he resigned and was given an "other than honorable" discharge.

According to Lyn Buchanan, many of the events acted out by people who wish to remain anonymous were attributed to others who have come forward (click here[comment.htm - MISSING] for his comments). However, there are at least two instance (viewing of a downed Korean airliner and working on book with Jim Marrs) in which (I believe) Mel Riley's name was used in place of Ed Dames. This in spite of the fact that Dames has come forward; I suspect that the replacement was due more to their ongoing feud than to any respect for anonymity.
There are two other major differences between Morehouse's account and the accounts of others. The first deals with secrecy. I would have to agree with John Alexander that the remote viewing project was "one of the worst kept secrets in the military". (Alexander, John, "Review of Psychic Warrior")
Morehouse describes various forms of harrassment he suffered at the hands of the military because he was working on a book about remote viewing. These include burglaries, being followed, an attempted murder of him and his family, being drugged while in a mental institution, and a court martial. Addressing the fact that none of the other viewers received such treatment (even though many went "public" long before Morehouse's book was released), Morehouse claims that he was singled out because he was in active duty while the others had since retired.
This would be true as far as the court martial is concerned, but the rest of the harassment was extra-legal, and as such there would be no reason to stick to the rules. Also, there would have been plenty of opportunity for the military to threaten the other viewers with violating various secrecy oaths. As far as I have seen, no such threats have been made, and the extent to which the viewers have kept their secrets have been by voluntary effort.
The other major distinction lies in the nature of remote-viewing. Morehouses account is closer to an out-of-body experience (alternatively called Experiential Remote Viewing) than remote viewing. I believe that Morehouse uses this approach because it is more interesting from a literary perspective.
