TEMPORARY CAMPS

The engineering and construction effort was self-sustaining during all
of the proving ground facilities development. Quarters, facilities and services were operated by Holmes & Narver to house and sustain all personnel
of Joint Task Force SEVEN except those living on Eniwetok Island, which
was the Eniwetok Military garrison, and those living in Naval vessels. It
was necesSary to establish temporary camps at Eninman (Figure 25), Namu,

Romurikku, and Enyu (Figure 26) at Bikim Atoll and at Rojoa on Eniwetok
Atoll. For short periods, small camps with minimum facilities were set up
on Bokobyaadaa and Bikini at Bikini Atoll.

Except for the last two named, each of the camps was equipped with
facilities for.messing, housing, PX store, barber shop, postal outlets, laun-

dry, light and power, fresh and salt water, and sewage disposal.

The struc-

tures at the temporary camps were made as simple and inexpensive as cir-

cumstances would permit.

All camp buildings were either of simple wood frame with plywood siding
