I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your hospitality
and assistance to me on my recent visit to Saipan.
As Mr. Norwood suggested,
I am writing you directly in regard to the arrangements for the medical
survey at Rongelap next March. I believe we had gone over the plans for the
survey in regard to Trust Territory assistance, including personnel, fairly
thoroughly, but IT will outline them again.
The survey would take place on
around March 1, 1967 and require about two weeks at Rongelap, one week at
Fheye, and several days at Majuro.
Arranysements will be made with transportation divistons of the Trust Territory ino repard te transportation of the
medical team from Kwajatein to Ronpelapand veturn.
eartied out,
to Rongelap.
This survey would be
if possible, in conjunction with the routine medical Lield trip
These arrangements would be carried out, I presume, by Dr. Laman.
In addition to the personnel I requested of you last month, I would like
to request an additional man.
In view of the fact that we would like to carry
out a chest survey this year, L am afraid Mr. Libby will be overburdened with
this in addition to his photographic workload.
Therefore, you will note in
the list below I am requesting also an x-ray technician, if it is possible for
you to furnish one.
If this is not possible, could you consider another
laboratory technician?
