From my 25 years' involvement with the radiation problems among the Marshallese of Rongelap, Utirik and Bikini, I have developed a great deal of affection for these people and have been greatly saddened by their forced exiles and the effects of radiation exposure on the Rongelap people. I can only hope that we will do everything possible to assure that their future will be brighter than their past has been. Robert A. Conard, M.D. September 20, 1978 Attach:
