Dear Bob:

As you probably know we have 5 cases that need to be returned to

Brookhaven for examinations and possible surgery of the thyroid.

v

I am

trying to arrange to get these patients sent back the latter part of August,

I am hopeful that Dr. Ezra Riklon at Ebeye will accompany the patients.

Both Dr. Peck and John Iaman have agreed to this.

I am anxious to get

these patients examined and back before cold weather sets in.

the time element becomes important.

Therefore

There are 2 cases that I would appreciate

your arranging to pet to Ebeye in preparation for this trip:
one is at
Ronge lap,
, the wife of
the school teacher; the other is at

return until about the 25th of August.

In the meantime Murph Ownby and

ready to leave on Dr. Riklon'’s return.

Bill Streenan of AEC Honolulu

Frank Granich at Kwajalein will purchase clothing and have the patient's
