War and Peace in the Nuclear Age; The Weapon of Choice; 102; The Navy's Part in Operation Sandstone (3 of 3)

Beehive is the giant laboratory. These are. The definition of a power on the block but what we wrote our report not of a scientific director. Mall brings in he was taught by the past H1N1 and now is no time for one. The NEVER SLEEPING eyes of late. Reach out left there but you improved those into the desert restricted areas communications has a heavy

responsibility. The entire task force has been stirred to intense activity. And then we talk in eerie darkness. The Air Force grown more enough to kill. They must plunge into the radioactive cloud on the sampling mission. With. With. With. With the with. With. The a new.

Nearby at the control Island a teller meter tower looms up at Santana ready to rethink the signal from the blast putting the scientists with it and they tell me the Rings thanks and you can record and interpret. The detonation party arrives amounts to the controls base and. Ready for x ray day and the world comic explosion. Sequence will be plucked from the darkness and the unknown. At what new peers does ma'am. Stand by for a final time. Thank you all. I thank you all. The gong it will be minus 20. And by. At the sound of the Goblin it will be minus hand back and minus

10 seconds. With. That the morning sky starting with a radioactive cloud to gather air sample helicopters poured to zero while A. Drone their spectacular job

may have snatched radioactive samples from the cloud and the actual sample then back to weaponization. Each person returning from exposure to radioactive areas whether that exposure was in the sky or on the ground must be carefully monitored. Among the many missions performed by the Navy helicopters recovery of samples

from the water and land cable. Proves the versatility of these craft. The samples are dropped to neutron measurement bruise on the back of the Albermarle. And rushed to the steps laboratories for counting procedures. Helicopter shuttle service was a great boon to the scientific project. Small groups go ashore more recovery of instruments and inspection of installations they are glad in disposable welding and wear a mask to prevent the ingestion of radioactive. Monitors guiding them respect their movement. And limit their stay. The timing station has weathered the fury of atomic blasts and that's what's taught the

theoretical rounds up will vital records of the experiments are safe with it. Everywhere are the telltale exhibits of the violence of the explosion. Some of them at the start again need no further explanation. Others require careful scrutiny. Assembling of data begins with. Although there must be no lingering and radioactive areas maybe medical man gather up sample packets that will provide diversified material for careful laboratory analysis. As data is computed upon the album Ali. Even a simple beer can renders an account of it. The bench on the island. Weight of water in the crumpled Cam will give the scientist a direct reading of blast pressures from a

precomputed table. Other data as been recorded on negative which may be examined like this one. As busy as the scientists have been before. They still lose no time now when analyzing the results and compiling figures needed by the test. The rector and the Atomic Energy Commission. But the protesting up to what they tional new weapons remain. Stand by for a young day. With. That and by for the people that they.

Are the man of the past for my place I knew what comic is break in the but greater still in the mind of a mighty nation working together. The atomic energy Commission's new proving that these new tests. Were made possible by teamwork. That's the story of the Navy's contribution. It was a contribution to a joint task force. And the united effort in operation Sam.
