Johnston Island, conducted by AEC laboratories, involved DOD personnel and units for device placement, cloud sampling, operation of airborne data recording stations, and general support. The weapons effects and operational tests were DOD programs, the former involving a number of experimental projects (23: 11). 4.19.3 Dose Summary for Operation DOMINIC I. With exceptions for specified Navy and Air Force participants, the maximum permissible dose for Operation DOMINIC I personnel was 3.0 rem of gamma radiation for the series. Navy personnel who were to collect samples of weapon debris from the radioactive pool of water created by SWORDFISH were authorized a maximum limit of 7.0 rem. Air Force personnel associated with cloud sampling (créw, maintenance, sample removal, or decontamination) could receive up to 20 rem of gamma radiation (23: 3). The table below summarizes available dosimetry information for DOMINIC I participants. Existing evidence indicates that some of the film badges had been defectively sealed or damaged by the environment and that they gave higher readings than the dose actually received. Nevertheless, all personnel have been assigned the readings recorded in Navy records (23: 3,4).
