Film Badge Readings are as follows: CN 401 40r CN 416 40 ¢ CN 403 40r CN 417 40r CN 404 40r CN 419 520 CN 408 40r Unknown 40r CN 410 44r CN 414 93 r CN 411 40r CN 423 98r CN 415 40r CN 425 98 Fr Film badges presently in custody of TU 7, TG 7.1 until completion of operation, at which time they will be forwarded to AFSWP. This dispatch reportedly (Reference 3) contains the distribution list for the badges as originally planned; however, because only six of the badges were actually distributed, and only four were actually worn, many of the 40 R readings attributed to personnel may have actually been from the film badges that were placed in the refrigerator. One individual with whom a badge reading is associated was not stationed on Rongerik during the period 1-2 March 1954. Reference 10 states that: "Several badges worn both outdoors and inside buildings on the island read 50-65 r, and one badge which remained outdoors over the 28.5 hr period read 98 r. Another group kept indoors inside a refrigerator read 38 r." The inference is that the troops received a film badge dose ranging from 50-65 R, while the badges in the refrigerator and the one that remained outside provide a lower and upper bound dose, respectively. Reference 5, which cites a Hq JTF-7 Memo for Record "Rad Safe Narrative Sequence of Events", BRAVO Shot, Operation CASTLE, as a reference, states that "film badge readings were obtained covering a range of values which varied with exposure conditions. Several badges were worn both outdoors and indoors (and covered the range 44-52 r). One badge which remained outdoors over the 28.5 hour exposure reached the upper limit of 98 r. Several other badges kept inside a refrigerator 13
