Signs of past mental and emotional abuse. Coping mechanisms exist, compartmentalisation, colder range of emotion. Some degree of under development in emotional range. Pragmatic traits. 

Subject 258F desire to learn needs to be directed appropriately but studies and interest have grounded the candidate 258F well in non Abrahamic concepts. Understanding and acceptance of changing ideas and forces existing beyond our understanding useful. Strongest interests in the nature of religion and gods, or source of the Abrahamic belief systems.

 Study considered by university professor from REDACTED contracted as adviser, classed as unfocused, yet widespread. Good general level of expertise in broad range of areas and eras. PROFESSORS NAME REDACTED DUE TO SPECIALIST DUTIES. CLASSIFIED MI6 LEVEL 7 ONLY. 

Testing revealed a ability to understand and mentally accept irregular and alternative geometry. Passed test. Mark within tolerance for project. Extra training optional if needed. 

Fear of burning up normal to most fliers. Not extreme, still with acceptable levels. Present in many candidates tested, seems to be institutionalised. 

Fear of bombing raids. Not severe. From childhood believed, expected due to background. Within safe tolerances. Minimal risk of affecting duties. 
General compartmentalised personality, low risk of locking away trauma until effects negatively. Counter strategy in secondary notes.

Subject 258F born in Northumberland, parents killed in bombing during great War and grew up in Church funded orphanage. Education reports subject excelled and developed a strong character. Background reduces potential for blackmail and correction by enemy agents. 

Reports suggest the home was emotionally and mentally abusive. Some signs of physical trauma consistent with corporal punishment. Tests suggest that this has manifested in a partially closed off and compartmentalised personality. This has done well to help Subject 258F excel in military service. Non emotional, colder, pragmatic. Recommended for service in the CLASSIFIED RED54856G section of CLASSIFIED if incompatible with Turin project. 

Subject 258F gained a grant to support training in mechanical college, engineering educated and showed a desire to learn. Often centred in Middle East, Abrahamic, some Eastern cultures also studied. Reports suggest is compatible with program goals. 

Joined Raf between wars. Service recorded as Engineer and Aircraft armaments role. Ground crew and saw service in Palestine and Persian region. Service recorded as honorable. Records of leave suggest interest in ideas beyond the known.  This is recorded in various library and travel records as relating to the source of the Abrahamic religions but also not discounting the origins of other regions belief systems native to Middle East, western and Eastern cultures. Varies quite widely. Main area of search. Abrahamic. 

Original application to flight officer was passed, scores passed and met required physical terms. Group not selected for training due to limits at time in need for trained pilots and disarmament programs. All candidates trained and activated due to war time conditions. Chosen as candidate for Turin operations. 

[b]Subject past is clear of enemy contacts. Risk of German or Axis sympathiser clear. [/b]
