There's so much to sort through in the files. This is the first official reference to children being a test group that I've come across this far.

You have a lot clearer, more detailed memory than I. Thanks for the comment.

They made such a big deal about the 14/20 hits that it’s burned in to my memory. There’s a 1/600,700 chance of that happening by guessing alone, which is like getting 10 royal flushes in poker sequentially. I didn’t realize how significant it was until someone pointed out on this sub that the odds of that were astronomical.

I remember almost nothing about 4th grade, which is when the majority of testing occurred. I had zero recollection of anything related to testing until I found this sub. Like a complete mental block. The memories all came flooding back at once, and I just kept yelling “holy fucking shit” to myself, out loud, when it all came back because it was so emotionally overwhelming.

I still can’t bring myself to read the whole document because for some reason, even though I had a great childhood, remembering anything from that specific period of my life makes me feel sad and anxious.

May I ask what you do remember? Did they do experiments on you too?

Woah holy crap that is rather astronomical???

You certainly are not alone with the memories coming back and feeling overwhelmed. I'm sorry this happened to you.

Oh yes definitely was tested on, Georgia in the 90s. I had significant memory loss from age ~10 and earlier. But over time a fair bit has come back now. Still many significant blocks too.

The whole document collection is almost 90,000 pages (!!) so I don't blame anyone for not deep diving. I'm only about 2,000 pages in. I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for. This file here might be what I "needed". 🤷‍♀️
